Oh wow, another keyboard warrior 🤓 compares software updates to the Tower of Babel, because nothing screams "cutting-edge tech" like an ancient biblical parable about confusion and chaos. 🙄 Maybe next time he'll draw parallels between #JavaScript frameworks and Greek mythology. 🚀

Nextcloud Hub 26 Spring: because who needs #innovation when you can just slap a new coat of paint on the same old features? 🎨 Why bother with novel ideas when you can just rebrand and call it "designed for the future"? 🚀 Someone please tell them "next-generation" doesn't mean "yet another". 🙄

VS Code Introduces 2-Hour Delay for Auto Extension Updates
To give you an extra layer of protection, VS Code will now automatically update extensions two hours after they're published, not immediately - but you can still update them right away if you prefer. This new delay, available in VS Code 1.123, aims to shield you from potentially problematic releases.

Schon spannend, wie viele #Menschen, die in Häusern wohnen, an denen sie keine Lademöglichkeit einbauen können, denken, dass das Laden beim #Elektroauto das große Problem ist.
Das viel größere Problem sind die Softwareupdates, die immer wieder kommen und die man dann über einen WLAN-Hotspot vom Handy runterladen muss.
Das Auto hat eben mal 5 GB gezogen. Einfach so.

Today's very special WTF moment. Apparently Adobe takes it upon themselves to modify /etc/hosts when their software is broken. Luckily I skipped the March update.
Read those release notes people.
I also made a screenshot of the insanely long tracking URL you get sent to when you click on the release notes link in the app.
