I SMS my boss when I’m off sick.

ICQ was still online!?!?!

I stopped using that shit like 25 years ago. Thought died in the late 90’s

Yeah… I’m not gonna worry about it until maybe September next year.

Pirrrrrrrr = Pir^8

The car was the slow part, I have an S23+.

The wrestling was figuring out getting BT audio ONLY.

And until I reset the head unit to factory previous users, contacts, radio stations and destinations were all stored there.

Not great on a rental car.

Not the whole phone obviously. But syncing all my contacts, recent calls etc.

Doesn’t even put “Switch” in the pictures

Bro couldn’t even clean his room in 3 days.

I’m happy with a Bluetooth connection to the stereo. I have maps on my phone.

Fuck carplay/android auto in the ear.

I hate getting a rental car and I just want my music, but it tries to hijack and download my whole phone.

I want to get in, connect my phone and go. Not 20 minutes wrestling it for control.

Digital displays are fine. It’s just a display. But controls should be manual (buttons, dials, etc) that can be operated with eyes on road.

Motherfucker!

If I was given an AI interview I would burn that place to the ground. The fucking disrespect.

It’s a fucking arrow pointing from big to small. It has a big end that goes at the big number and a small end that goes at the small number.

It couldn’t be simpler.

People still can’t remember.

I mean I get having trouble with Trig… But this ?

People make mistakes, that’s why we automate things. If a system relies on a human not making mistakes it is doomed to fail eventually.

Saving manually should be a feature, but autoaave should be on by default these days, unless 30+ years of people losing work due to not hitting “save” manually has taught us nothing.

Crashes happen. Errors happen. Pets and children happen. Any major document editor should be able to auto save and replay a very long history of actions.

Improve the system, because you can’t improve people with a code patch.

A massive swathe of current gen devices don’t even support it.

It won’t be a month.

Microsoft announce changes much smaller than that 4 years out and still have to give extensions.

WQ = Write and Quit Q! = quit and do nothing else

Multiline cut, copy, paste is where I forget commands.

Formatting in Word is so easy.

If this issue from 1997 is still affecting you, you probably still use Internet Explorer.

Skill issue.

No. Some of us were already there.

Lifetime Microsoft expert here, I have had machines with Linux in one flavour or another for 15+ years at least.

But for ease of use I just keep coming back to Windows… Because I know it backwards and upside down.

The structure of it makes sense to me. And I have ADHD so I have a terrible working memory and Linux relies FAR too much on command console to do anything effective.

But Linux is hands-down the better system to get away from Microsoft’s enshitification of Windows. But I personally like Windows better.

So I will always run both. But if I need to be really productive, Windows Desktop it is. If I need a server, Linux every time. (Unless it’s MS SQL or a website).

Cavalier poodle is called a cavoodle

We get the option to vote by mail for free weeks in advance.

You don’t even have to get off your fat arse.

I notice negatives to it as well.

When I trim the driveway hedge I have to pick any errant cuttings out of the rose garden. So I spend about 1-2 hours looking for one type of leaf amongst another type of leaf.

When I close my eyes for the next 12 or so hours all I can see is the type of leaf I was looking for, my brain is so locked on to looking for the pattern.

OP asked for feedback.
