I’ve only seen one of them up close in person and it was pretty cool, I do admit. But I still don’t want one for myself. Something about the whole thing just feels weird and off. I’d be constantly feeling like it was going to split apart from plastic fatigue if I had one.
Please edit the title of your post and add “YSK” to the beginning of the title. Rule 1 of the community. Thanks.
“Dogs and cats sleeping together!”
Yup, and people younger than a certain age think email is as archaic as the pony express.
Please edit the title of your You Should Know post to begin with “YSK”. It’s Rule 1 of the community. Thank you.
The 12 year old video below explains the root cause of economic misery. Technology is a tool that can be used for good or evil. But the ruling class wants ALL the money. So technology is often used for more efficient oppression.
Meanwhile, we working class folks are too busy working and/or distracted (often fighting with each other) to mount any real resistance.
Fortunately I work in a small shop and am a domain admin. Using a combo of Powershell and ShutUp10, I cut out as much of the stupid bloat and spyware as I can. The OS still sucks, but it’s much more tolerable with that crap turned off.
One of these days I’m going to get off my lazy butt and create a custom Windows 11 installation ISO with the nonsense pre-removed.
(And yes, I also use Linux, and prefer it.)
They make use it at my job. I hate it.
Reddit logic: suggesting a lab accident automatically makes you racist or anti-science or something.
I don’t hate things just for being popular. However, reddit definitely gets worse the more popular it is, and the largest subs are always the worst of the worst.
Could even get dog-piled for saying “we need more info” in the early days of that.
I totally get that.
Check out Textpad. You might like it. The only nuisance with it is the default config settings are a little oddball (things like keyboard shortcuts, etc). But it’s highly configurable so you can set it up the way you like and then it’s good. It has more features than Notepad, but it’s still pretty simple and can do cool things like search files / folders for strings, has regex support, etc. But the extras stay out of your way and it’s pretty clean and simple for “notepad-like” usage.
Thank you for writing this. Small typo: focued (focused).
The Facebook bots are probably trying to make every lesser site feel bad about itself by comparing them to the much cooler and popular sites.
Post doesn’t follow Rule 1. Please update the title of the post.
I checked my “content library” and I still have the option to download. Which is good, as I back everything up in Calibre. Maybe there are some regional factors here, or it may depend on which Kindle device(s) you own?
Thank you for the update! I would like to keep using it. I’ve been very happy with Bitwarden both as a password manager and a TOTP authenticator. I have even recommended it to my boss as an enterprise solution for us to use at work, and so far we are planning on replacing our current password database solution with Bitwarden.
Unfortunately, with “enshittification” being so common these days, it was very easy to believe they were also going to the dark side. I will remain cautiously optimistic after learning it was a packaging bug.
Here’s a link to the post on X (yes, I hate X, too) in case anyone else is doubtful:
Back when I still enjoyed reddit, I loved /random. How very reddit of them to continue down the road of making it a worse user experience. Because it hasn’t been about the users for a long, long time. They do it gradually enough that the average reddit schmuck barely even notices.
