My former employer did RTO with 2 weeks notice, no exceptions. A coworker who had actually moved to a different state moved their family again to comply, only to be laid off months later.
I had sold my car and planned to never own another. Plus the few times I had been in the office were awful, managing virtual meetings with coworkers around and overseas, listening to a sales rep in the next cubicle discussing how best to defraud their customers, etc. I loved that job and my boss fought hard for my ability to stay remote, but they were convinced 100% RTO is the only way to survive the tariffs.
I once had a car stop working while waiting at a stoplight. Light turns green, press gas pedal, nothing. In a panic, I just keyed it off and started it again, and luckily that did the trick. I don't think I would have had the sense at the time to use hazards if that hadn't worked.
I get that I'm apparently the weird one here, but I don't get why people put up with this instead of just using your subscriptions feed. I turned off watch history a long time ago and it has been great.
I get the sentiment, though doesn't it seem unfair to assume all tradition has such grounding? Plus, disrespect is the mechanism for weeding out harmful or redundant traditions. It's fine.
What really sucks is that it was added somewhat recently with their new pvp mode, which I couldn't care less about. I paid for the game, and they made it unplayable for me.
I think the people doing the rewrites genuinely believe it will be an improvement, and they could be correct. I get the instinct to "don't fix what ain't broken", but that is what staging is for. There is no need to make sacred cows, and this seems like a perfect opportunity to improve security and integration testing as well.
I don't hate telemetry, and words do have meanings. I wouldn't call it a consumer attraction, however, otherwise it would make the most sense to design it as opt-in.
Telemetry isn't malicious by nature, although it likely is in support of predatory sales practices in this case considering HP's recent history. When opt-out, I would call it undesirable software designed to send unauthorized data from a consumer perspective.
Maybe there is a better term, but I can't think of one. Language is flexible though, and most categorizations have defiers.
FYI that sounds like ADHD to me. Not something to act on unless it becomes a problem, but I wish my parents would have recognized it when I was struggling.
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel (people who think BL2 is better than TPS are wrong)
Are you Australian by chance? I have a lot of complaints about TPS, but then after watching some taskmaster Australia I had a theory; I wonder if there is some fundamental difference in preferred pacing that causes those to fall flat for other audiences? In dialog, humor, events, etc.

He can't read.

First time I've seen this take. BL2's story is my favorite of the series, and the best feature of the game IMO. Then 3 happened...
Crashlands.
+1 for Cradle. His current series "The Last Horizon" is great too, a fun trope filled science-fantasy.

Totally agreed.
Unfortunately my first association is the "Glass Walls" ad that was hammered into my brain hundreds of times before I learned to block them.

No, Paul, do you think slaughterhouse employees are even more likely to be vegetarian? Good intentions, but so infuriating.

The best part is (in my experience) come Sunday those spots will be filled, most often not by handicapped people.

You could try adding

Fair point, although it feels wrong to refer to malware as a feature.
