Nothing says "Easy to use" like having to reinstall the bluetooth driver thru Device Manager after a Windows Update.

You know the trope about "when you're in the know about something, you see every example of that something which is bad, and you feel bad"?
Like "teach someone typography, and they will examples of it done wrong every day", that sort of thing.
Well, one of the things I have knowledge about and experience with is cinematography - film & video. And here's one I run into regularly.
I watch an online video.
On my 16:10 monitor.
The browser letterboxes it into a 16:9 area of the screen.
It's some bloody stupid video site with vertical video, so it's 1:2 (or even worse), pillarboxed into the browser viewport.
And then the video maker is commenting about another video, so it's a 16:9 letterboxed into a tiny section of the pillarboxed video, with enormous borders on the top and bottom.
This hurts my head, even without considering that it results in trying to watch a video that takes up about 5% of the screen.

Vor Jahren habe ich mein Konto bei #LinkedIn gelöscht, weil ich genervt war. Neulich habe mich vorsichtig wieder angemeldet. Um mal zu schauen. Ich war nach 2min direkt wieder hart genervt. Und nun kommt eine E-Mail mit »Nicolai, folgen Sie Friedrich Merz, Bundeskanzler bei Bundeskanzleramt«. Nur um mich nochmal daran zu erinnern, dass die Plattform nervt. #aargh

Leave it to a #Canadian plumbing manufacturer to use a pipe thread that isn't standard Imperial units/thread (traditional plumbing sizes in Canada) *or* ISO standard metric threads.
18mm diameter, 1mm thread pitch. ISO specifies 1.5, 2.0, or 2.5mm thread pitch...

I wish I were better at strategy games. I got Civilization VI on Steam and even at the lowest level I am absolute garbage. It's a beautiful game, though, so I will keep trying!

Am I the only one that yells, DIY art and crafting videos when they have no fucking idea of the actual names for the things that they’re working with. This woman spent three minutes whining about cutting of a selvage edge on a piece of fabric. She kept saying these dot dot dot spots they just don’t look pretty. Call it a selvage edge call it what it actually is and if you don’t know educate yourself! Rant over.😜 #Art #Crafting #Aargh

One sign that all is not well in America is that they commonly make 33-gallon trash cans but sell 30-gallon trash bags

Logged on this morning to yet another attempt to move me from Windows 10 to 11. I had to search out three 'no' buttons.

#Stevia and #MonkFruit individually give me headaches - together they give me a migraine headache. Make me a protein powder without either! #aargh
