Scott Adams was a massive dipshit, and using his cartoon as anything more than laughing at the addled interpretations of corporate life is mental to me.
As for management being easier than work, that’s only true if you’re a psycho or don’t actually have a real job to do. Every one of my friends that have been in management hated it, since it was more work and he shit on top of their actual job. And again, fuuuuuck that
“We’re not seeing the numbers we want, so we’re putting copilot in everything to expand our active user base. Hell, rename everything copilot!”
Work/life balance
I actively avoid getting promoted because management is the next step and fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck that shit. I hate managing my own workload, I’m not dealing with HR shit and keeping track of other people (while still also doing my job…)
Start by discussing specific events that bug you or where you did something you’re not happy with yourself about. I suffer from the same issue, and this was how my therapist started teasing out some of the issues I have.
Lol, as of mainstream media isn’t ALSO propaganda
Well shit, maybe we shouldn’t hold humans responsible for the actions that they convince another human to take. After all, the victim is just a human being a human, right?
As a father, I’m going to be better than mine by fucking showing up and being in my kid’s life.
I actually have an AHK macro that overrides that to type the contents of my clipboard. Does the same thing, but it also means I can paste into a web based VM console.
But good to know they’re adding something useful while they enshittify
Let me help you by not selling you what you want. What do you mean “stop pissing in your eyes”?
If they can burn a billion dollars on shit everyone else knew was a failure from day 1, they can pay a fucking reasonable tax rate
Like it’s just copy and paste
Depending on the app, it’s more than just copy paste…
Tons of apps (specifically web browsers) love to copy over formatting which, if supported by the receiving app (like a chat thread) will add the extra shit to it. I deal with this constantly at work, because it can be a toss up in if the chat/word processor I’m using will take the link I copied, or if it will post it as a link with the title of the tab as the link text.
Aggravating as fuck, and why I have N++ up on my work machine at all times so I can destroy any formatting and ensure what I send is what I want.
Yeah, let’s make fun of one slop peddling giant by adding some spyware to another slop peddling giant’s product (that’s also spyware)
I misread the title at first and I genuinely thought that’s what this article was about.
Did you buy an offbrand ext drive? I mainly stick to EasyStore models (and its been a minute since I had to buy), and they were always 1 internal HDD in their annoying to open enclosure
I think I’ve booted my windows install maybe two or three times after getting things setup on my Bazzite box, and each time was desperation because I couldn’t get something working on a time crunch (like my microphone no longer working before a telehealth appointment) and most of the time it’s user error (like the audio profile being switched so the mic wasn’t enabled for some reason).
Honestly, the only complaint I have is that periodically flat/snap apps (idr offhand) don’t want to open and I have to reboot a couple times before they do. Can’t say the same for my windows installs…
The company isn’t making money. The people behind it absolutely are.
Lol, the AI can barely remember the directives I tell it about basic coding practices, I’m not concerned that the clanker can remember me shit talking it.
I would love an AI that was personalized to me and could answer the questions I want rather than shitting out generic shit that barely applies to my question. Something that knows me enough to help me with all the shit I don’t remember or have the energy to make myself start. That’s something I’ve dreamed about ever since I saw it in scifi media.
But I want to OWN and CONTROL the data and the way the AI handles the data. Unfortunately I don’t have the hardware to make them run very well, so I don’t really bother. Corpo AI is just opening your shirt and telling them where to swing the golf club.
You’ll be happy to hear about my upcoming stance on suppositories.
I must be misunderstanding this line, as both of those are chromium browsers. Not sure if you meant to call out safari and Firefox as 'how few aren’t chromium, or that so many browsers are chromium based like those two.
