Scene: #CFL football game between the #Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the #Edmonton #Elks.
Winnipeg has been dominant and is leading 16 - 0, with a little over three minutes remaining in the first half.
After an incomplete pass on first down, quarterback Zach Collaros is facing 2nd down and 10 yards on his own side of the field.And #TSN's new #wunderkind colour commentator and ex-NFL player Luke Willson, who is damned annoying, comments:
Luke Willson: ... If I'm Zach Collaros, I'm going to try to find a way to convert on second and long, and try to get the lead to three scores going into halftime.
Me: Brilliant! What a strategy - get the first down and then try to score some points. How is it possible that no one has hired this man to coach his own team? Will Bombers coach Mike O'Shea figure out this brilliant plan on his own?
Sheesh.

"Movie anti-star": an actor whose presence in a movie is, on its own, sufficient to cause you to avoid ever seeing it.
Adam Sandler
Rob Schneider
Kevin James
About half of the Saturday Night Live cast that have ever done a feature film
Pauly Shore
Kevin Hart
Macaulay CulkinWho would you add to the list?
I note that my list above doesn't include any women (other than perhaps SNL alumni, but I can't think of a female from there that annoys me like the above). Are only men capable of being such annoying, simpering, mugging-for-the-camera wastes of screen time?

Here I was last night, insistent on sitting outside the neighbour's house, after I snuck out while my human was sorting the bins. No snacks or treats worked for getting me back inside for the night so I stayed out to play while my human gave up and went to bed. After I had my fun, I cried and whinged outside the window at 4am to be let back in. Aren't I just a delight ✨

Back to work after a week off. Time to dig out of the inbox, and catch up on everything I missed. Sometimes I think returning from PTO is the worst part. Not because I don't want to go to work (i really do enjoy what I do for a living) but because nothing actually stops while you're gone. Its probably worse for folks with more dependencies riding on them, but its still not great even at my level.
But first, my Macbook has to give me grief. I use a dock, to connect to two external displays, and the laptop itself sits with its lid closed. I had the audacity to shut it down when I logged off on Friday before my PTO. This morning, not only is there no way to turn the dang thing on without pulling it out of the little shelf its in, but... That dock it spends 95% of its life connected to? The one that gives it all of its input and output... Yea, I have to allow it to connect, which means holding the laptop on my palm while i turn it on, wait for it to completely boot, login, and then plug it into the dock and click.. Allow, before I can use my keyboard, mouse, and displays. Seriously. I get it, malicious devices are a thing. but the dock i use all the dang time?
Sigh.

Duolingo, a freakin’ casino, it takes more time to open the chests and watch all animations than completing the practice.
I always have my phone in silent mode, Duolingo violates that and play more sounds than the tivoli roller coaster
Advise: you should focus on your core business.

Ah, #blogging, that ancient art of stating the glaringly #obvious as if one has discovered the Holy Grail 🏆. Thank goodness for bloggers who bravely inform us that pop-ups are annoying! Next, they’ll reveal that water is wet, and the sky is blue 🌧️🌌.

When you need to pay bills and you missed the bank’s notice of maintenance for its online services because it was posted on social media and not on the app or sent through email. 🤬

Luke Willson is the pimple on the ass of the #CFL.
It was bad enough when they gave him multiple sideline segments every game last year - at least I could mute the TV during his segments. And yes, I absolutely did that.
This year they have him in the booth as a colour commentator. I can't easily mute that.
#TSN, I don't know how you managed to do it, but you're making me pine for the days of having Paul LaPolice in the booth. I didn't think that would be possible. Hell, I'd take Rod Black as the colour guy over Willson.

Listening to DAB and they are currently playing Voodo Chile by Jimi Hendrix, and the display says it's Voodo Child. Grrrrrr. you'd expect a classic roch channel to know its correct name.

Sigh, I'm struggling with a Thing I don't like in my life, friends, but I can't change it. Well. Not immediately (unless I'm willing to face some really unpleasant consequences, and I'm not).
I can work towards changing said Thing but that will take time, and meanwhile, I need to be OK with the status quo. This is unsettling and annoying because I've really reached the end of my tether with the Thing.
I need to focus on radical acceptance/gratitude/what good I have in my life over the next few days. Currently I'm journalling, writing lists of 'things I love and are good in life', spending time with my favourite folk, planning some gardening...
any other tips will be greatly appreciated. This is taking up a lot of energy and it's demoralising and sad.

I was contemplating who is more #annoying: a) the person insisting you should use a #LLM for this or that task, or b) the person that insists you should not use LLMs for any task.
I think it's the second. I find it equally annoying that idiots online want to police what tools others use, but I largely agree with group b, which makes their annoying holier-than-thou attitude unbearable. -
You know what really grinds my gears? When I look for #Fortinet memes but all I get is #Fortnite memes :blobfoxannoyed:.
Sometimes I hate modern search engines trying to guess what they think you really meant. I need a good old lexical search for images that includes the whole web regardless of license. @Mojeek only does free licenses using Pixabay and OpenVerse. Which is often great! But sometimes not lol.

#Firefox just keeps getting worse.
I don't know exactly which version this started with, but for the last few months Firefox has been a #CPU hog for me. Even when not interacting with any browser windows, the CPU usage of various processes - the main firefox #process, the content-sandboxing #processes, the WebExtension processes - will be taking significant CPU in bursts. There's frequently an Isolate... process using ~100%, and the main process will sit at 90% for a while before jumping to 160%.
It's significant enough that it makes actually using the #browser #annoying. Pauses for one or two seconds while typing or scrolling as it does ... whatever it's doing while chewing CPU, and these happen every few seconds. Like 3 or 4 times for each line I'm typing in this window right now.
There's nothing obvious to account for this workload. There are no videos playing, or animations, or sound. There are no continuously-updating pages or web apps running. I have uBlock Origin (adblocker) and Privacy Badger running, which significantly reduces the amount of work the browser does because there's no ad scripts to screw around in the background. The only thing I'm actively doing in Firefox at the moment is typing this toot. And yet still it pauses constantly.

What are some annoyances or issues in video games that you're glad are gone?
For me, I'm glad that online passes were abandoned. An online pass was a code you'd get with a game that usually locked away multiplayer or sometimes items & missions untill you entered the code & downloaded the DLC. These codes were given to you when you got a game new, but if you got a game used & the code in the box was claimed, you'd have to pay $10 to unlock the same content.

Agreed; everyone, go opt out of this.
There's another minor annoyance here, but one of my pet peeves. This isn't "Find My Device"- or even Google-specific...
Every big business tells you "Don't follow links in emails claiming to be from us!". Good advice.
And then sends you email saying "Follow this link to do <X>".
