Reminds me of "The guy" post from a while ago who managed to defeat someone's eating disorder, managed to be radically trans inclusive for the weirdest reasons and a whole bunch of other stuff. Hold while I try to find it, I did save it.
Seriously asmongold is a disgusting human being on every level and meaning of that word. When told on a stream he should wash his hands he responded he washed them 3 weeks ago. He used to have a decaying rat as an alarm clock and get up when he could smell it. He used to wipe his gum's blood on his wall. He's pretty openly very far right and anti woke/dei.
I mean, by US law (back when analog TV was standard) all TV broadcasts had to include closed captions on scanline 23(?) for people with hearing disabilities. it was part of the vertical blanking interval so it didn't interfere with the regularly visible broadcast. It is good to include subtitles for all dialogue, spoken in the local dialect, in a foreign dialect, and even the various sign languages. That's isn't to say that yes, I fully agree that differently abled people should be able to take part in the dialog and should have accommodations where needed.
Semi related, did you know American sign language is closer to French sign language than it is to British sign language?
I'm a software developer, though one of my minors in college was IT so I didn't mind doing IT work, but man. I am at my current job writing tools for internal use, and most of the questions I get asked are just thing's I literally wrote in the documentation.
A few weeks ago I got a meeting invite asking how to enable some feature, it was literally described on a step by step instruction in the documentation that is supplied along side the tool. I am getting pretty miffed about needing to read to my coworkers
I did some part time IT at my last job. IT really ruins your respect for people and faith in humanity. There were so many tickets we got that were just "I got this error message I didn't read".
Hell, for a few months there was a bug in our ERP's clock in system. The client's time would desync from the server's time (don't know why the system didn't just treat the server time as authoritative), so we added a message when that happened "Please close this program and reopen it, you are not clocked in/out" and it would secretly log the user that didn't clock in. There was one dude that tried like 5 tikes to clock in on the same machine, another time we could see that he got the message and tried a different computer and then another and another and another before finding one that worked.
No one reads error messages no matter how clear and concise they are. No matter how simple the instructions are.
Not to mention they are likely utilising AI in their crappy algorithm
I mean, they always have. YouTube's whole job is to get you to watch more YouTube. It sees you watched video A so now it trys to figure out what else you might like to watch next so it suggests video B based on your interests and watching patterns. What the algorithm specifically prioritizes has changed a few times, which is why there's been fads in the algorithm. But determining what is something you'd be interested in isn't something that's easy to put directly into code, but something that can "vibe" it out is a much better tool to use. Its actually one of the better use cases for AI (AI in broad terms not specifically LLMs or other generative slop currently on everyone's shit list).
Your standard off the shelf easy to setup Linux ISO (mint for example) is like 4 GB after install, it includes a whole office suite, a few games, screensavers, GIMP, and a whole bunch of software you may not ever realize is on there or even need.
Did you know many distros standard install includes the GNU C/C++ compiler? Do most people need the GNU compiler? No, but the whole OS and all these tools is already smaller than a barebones install of windows since microslop just ships bloat.
"Update and Shutdown" still acts as "Update and Restart" on windows. They added a whole new feature that is indistinguishable from the previous feature.
Though I agree macos has the problem of "well Firefox was open so I was stuck here over night"
You're kinda being a dick to someone who has been vocally anti-trump since he first dated a trump supporter in 2012. That's not a typo. Since Obama's reelection I've hated the guy and voted against him in every election. Don't blame me for him winning again.
There's a lot of blame to be pointed directly at Biden and Kamala's 2024 campaign for not reading the room and offering milquetoast promises.
If you don't want to come back here fine, you'd personally give Republican's ammo for their sudden hatred of Canadians and I would rather mend our two country's relationship.
I mean, most people don't know their encryption keys. A correct password retrieves the keys from the TPM, the duress pin wipes the TMP so now even a correct password is unable to get any of the data.
Hell, even if you use the same password in multiple locations (you shouldn't) a good service will salt (add a random but consistent jumble of characters for your account specifically) and then hash (weird complicated math that makes it really hard to reverse your password) your salted password then check if that salted hash matches what's on file.
The "patch" for the X1 also allows anyone on the home console of the account to play the game, which has led to many people game sharing with a friend.
Yeah, I want more trans inclusive radical misogynist stories. Like they're so incredibly blursed and funny.
They are all somehow the densest person alive. I'm actually astonished the whitehouse isn't a blackhole at this point.
HE'S OUR'S NOW

Oh shit, is this it? Is this actually the year of the Linux desktop?

Yeah I think it was removed in windows 7 or 8.
Oof, I know the pain of a broken bike when it's your favorite transportation. My condolences buddy.

sigh
I'm sorry Canada. A lot of us are waiting for it to happen too.

No, its still incredibly easy to get AI to tell you how to make drugs or a bomb.
I'm disappointed I'm not lefty enough for the club 😭
