I find it remarkable how #Microsoft have managed to turn #Office, their flagship productivity suit into a smelly trashfire.

I credit the "#AI revolution" and a culture of #VibeCoding. Product #quality has gone thoroughly downhill as result.

So happy I don't pay for it out of pocket and I wish the organizations I work with would seriously consider transitioning to alternatives.

Called another attorney today, but I had to leave a message. I'm so sick of this 😪 This journey started in March. I honestly did not think this would take so long. I'm feeling pretty disheartened. I just want an attorney to help me!

arghh. i tried to make a new FB account to keep blank just to see stuff during the rare times there's something to see, and annoyingly they rejected my completely new not-logged-into account as violating community standards. wtf?

i may have to reactivate my old account and just delete everything then...

Being connected to two fields that have been dealing with the replication crisis in science for a very long time now, it's fun to watch other areas getting drawn in and going through the stages of grief.

Apparently cell biology has entered the "it's just you guys that suck and we're the real scientists!" phase of the process. 🙄

Always fun to meet a True Scotsman. So few of those around these days.

#AliExpress now demands "#AgeVerification" for "Adult Products"...

- I'm not gonna self-d0x to that site!

Any known workarounds or Insiders willing to help?

What makes sense to a computer software program oftentimes has absolutely no basis in the reality of the streets. To demand changes to the more logical, efficient, and most importantly, SAFER routines developed by the people who perform the actual job just to make arbitrary numbers?

In short, eat a bag of fresh dog excrement, you AI shills.

😖Not much could interest me less

than reading about Trump's mental decline

FFS! He's been wacky as a fruitcake for ten plus years

You've normalized his bizarre brain puffery orations

I want to go to my local writing club, but I don't know if I necessarily have anything to write about today.

And because the alternative I have presented myself is that I'm going to stay home and have a perfectly fine evening here finally getting to clean my house and have dinner, it feels like I have a good alternative, at that.

I'm devaluing it at the moment, however, internally because it isn't "outside". I'm socializing with people on the phone today though and making progress on things that have been bothering me that I haven't had done so I think I need to just take it easy.

The use of #NoReply addresses ( and #ShortCodes instead of #PhoneNumbers ) should be illegal as in:
- Lifetime ban for using Computers and Phones
- Life no less than 25 years of jail

If you - as a business or organization - can send me a message, you owe me the ability to reply to you in the same way.
- If you can't even be assed to add a "reply-to" address, I consider you a spammer.

Oh good, the provincial budget got rammed through this morning and it's just been announced that electricity rates are going up.

Guess I'll resume my research on how to live in a van when you're not a perfectly pretty Instagram influencer.

I hate the overusage of the word "opinionated" in the software world in the past 4-5 years. I get it, it's your app, it's your way of configuring things. Fuck your opinionated thing!

@daveycraney This should all be in #venting, in our IRC server 😂

Chcete-li si pořídit na 30 děťátko, připravte se, že vás zaměstnavatel oškube, seřeže, vytrhá všechny vlasy, zařízne dosavadní kariéru, na 2 vysoké školy vám krtek hodí bobajz a ještě u toho bude mít smutné oči, jak jste jim vlastně všem zničili život. Ale jinak netuším, proč je porodnost tak nízká no.

i feel bad for neglecting my house's cleanliness lately.

I have no energy to cook or even put away clean clothes. while I'm being productive with working, the house (and meself) turns so messy oh geez why can't I have both?

I think I got myself a sunburn on my face today. Spent 85% of my shift overheating. In DECEMBER. Can't even trust the seasons now. I can't believe I'm sitting here regretting not putting on sunscreen the day after Christmas in Missouri.

I enjoy a retro hobby or two (#retrogaming mostly) and a lot of retro #music, but when someone says they genuinely miss the 80s and 90s *as a whole*, I view them with suspicion. Like, were you just not affected by the incredibly pervasive bigotry back then (yes, it was worse than today) or were you an active participant?

I couldn't log into this account on Ivory, so I reset the PW, thinking I'd saved it wrong. But I still can't log in on Ivory, and my account stayed logged in on this app.

This has to be the dyslexia? But I've started over 3 times. I hate how confused I constantly feel when I'm trying to solve tech problems. My brain still works, and everything still makes sense upstairs!! So why can't I interact with the world around me, without feeling like my brain has gotten me lost? 🧠🤬

Hand tools vent. Maybe this will save someone some grief and #expense if they find it with a search.

Wiha - great drivers & bits. Love 'em. Well-machined, good tough tool #steel.

But their needlenose pliers? Rubbish. I have a set of full-sized needlenose, plus their "micro" set. With both of them there's too much slop in the joint, so the jaws are never quite aligned. I don't recall if they were bad right out of the packaging, but I certainly noticed it within the first handful of usages. I have the full sized "standard" / linesman-type pliers as well, but you don't tend to notice slop because of the much shorter jaws.

Wiha's micro-needlenose pliers are no better than - or even noticeably worse than - #cheap #Chinesium ones I have.

Save your money.

Tried to delete my CivitAI account under GDPR.
They told me: “Just use the button.”

No policy. No transparency.

Fine. I escalated to the Irish DPC.
Their reply?
“You’re from Ukraine. Not our problem.”

Typically, drillers burn the #gas they don’t capture, converting the #methane to #CarbonDioxide, a less potent #GreenhouseGas, in a process called #flaring. Sometimes, they release the gas without burning it, in a process called #venting.

The permit applications showed #oil companies requested to flare or vent >195 billion cubic feet of #NaturalGas per year, enough to power >3 million homes & generate millions of dollars of tax revenue had the gas been captured.

Sometimes it's ok to be #smug about some things. The world tries to make me feel like the weirdo constantly, so here are some things I've never done, in no particular order (#rant): owned or used a selfie stick, used twitter, instagram, snapchat, tiktok, ordered from amazon, "created" something with "AI", had a youtube account, tried to appease an algorithm, fretted re: brand name clothing, had Windows or cable TV as an adult, broken my vegan diet, voted conservative.

Writing my frustrations is easy,
Yet enunciating them is difficult.

Everyone should have a journal
Just to write about issues.

That would vent much steam
And cool our warming planet.

Does anybody have an example of a tech sales company that's really annoying if you just give them your email once, in an online form?

I'd like to start siccing some of these goofballs on each other - e.g. you send me repeated unasked for solicitations, I add your email to somebody else's cold sales call list....

I am so angry right now.

I have been planning to buy a MacBook Laptop for the last 6 months, and today I got around to testing if my ham radio software would work under x64 emulation in Win11 ARM64 edution.

Of course it F**king doesn’t. The main piece of software that runs most of my radio stuff completely craps out on the Visual C libraries being x64 emulated.

With v7 of the software promising linux and Mac support, but with no solid timeframe, I’m now back to trying to figure out how to best upgrade my radio shack when Win10 reaches EOS.

Linux is no-go (you may have seen previous posts) - Rig control is only just barely there and the number of interdependencies that create additional conditions to make things work is just not making it practical for me.

Upgrading existing Win10 machine is no-go thanks to MS deciding there was a need to generate a heap of e-waste by locking Win11 functionality to only recent CPUs.

My other SFF machines will suffer the same CPU lockout fate.

Leaning into replacing apps with Mac equivalents is less than idea, as most of the ham radio app development uses the windows platform. I don’t need to make my setup any more niche than it already is :)

I’m thinking my only option at this point is to purchase a cheap Win11 compatible laptop and dedicate that to the radio shack and mobile operations.

At this rate I think the majority of people around here are printing their own driver's licenses at home and never actually learned to drive or have ever taken a driving test.

Feeling really frustrated and overwhelmed lately. The job hunt has been tough, and dealing with the lack of protections for medical cannabis just adds to the stress. It’s hard to stay motivated when I’m constantly exhausted and feeling like I’m not good enough. The loneliness in this struggle is real, and it’s taking a toll on me.
