Come on, just because the CEO endorsed a Trump candidate using the company social media? Then backpedalled after the backlash? And then sent emails about how Proton is totally agnostic about politics and how the CEO is a Asian immigrant so surely they can’t support Trump?

I know a guy who ONLY quotes and references YouTube videos.

Every topic, he answers with “Oh I saw this YouTube video…”

Pasty tech bros continue to push dumb shit forward, ruin companies, out a lot of people out of work then do something else. The definition of fail upwards.

That sounds right. Lemme ask Gemini and DeepSink just in case.

Jeep is rated #16 out of #22 from consumer reports

Guess they really wondered how to go even lower.

I’m sensing a future where cars are becoming like cell phones and laptops, a single unit without replaceable core parts. And they’ll have ads built right in.

I’m old enough to remember when Gamersgate/me too and companies were getting leaked everywhere, which really made them look bad. Like literally people were using their real Facebook name and going, “Scarlet Johansson is a feminist b**** c*** who should stay in her lane” and their job title right there.

The first thing my job did was give everyone a warning that no personal things on work time and made everyone sign a contract. Then a few months later, our sister company got a bunch of leaks in the news about a sexist environment/sexual abuse. Then a few months after that, a bunch of people were “let go” for breaking that contract.

There was a guy I met at a bar who took out his laptop to show me some cool personal app he was building using a no-code builder. I asked him about his laptop specs, and I shit you not, he said, “I don’t know. It’s whatever my job gives me.”

I tie a toy chicken to a wall that when honked, creates an audible sound.

I tried to figure out Mastodon a few months ago. I’m with you.

Someone asked me to follow them on Mastodon. I couldn’t find them in the app. He sent me the direct link and it opened up a browser on my phone, refusing to recognize the app.

I finally added them directly from a browser by by remembering which server I was in, log into that, visiting their link again, adding them from my logged in server, and then it finally appeared in the app.

And if I’m dealing with thet level of monkeying around, how many others are? How the hell are we supposed to contribute and add content and find social circles when we’re fighting with the UI?

Lemmy seems to have figured out how to not make a sucky experience with multiple servers.

Uh we are currently on Google Pixel 9.

Google Pixel 4 is kind of old. I am unfortunately a victim of the 4a battery.

My solution after 3 years was upgrade to pixel 5a, which was a free upgrade because I had that Google Fi bonus. Google 7 was out, but I didn’t care.

I mean I’m glad they’re still head accountable. But this is like finally giving people who hated Windows 7 a coupon?

We’ll call it FREEDOM FOOD. Please, pass the FREEDOM beef chow fun, and the AMERICAN Fortune cookies, and BALD EAGLE AR-15 green tea.

I watched a woman log into her email at a Best Buy laptop kiosk then walk away. I went over and logged her out.

The user is a moron. Lock your shit.

Those who need it the most. Imagine them just asking questions about what this Linux thing is to their friends.
