  This is why you should just put the date in the file name in ISO 8601 format, no indication how many times you’ve been over this

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨BlackRock is Suing UnitedHealth for Giving “Too Much Care” to Patients After the CEO was Murdered⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If they’re shareholders, they probably have standing to sue over lost shareholder value or some such bullshit like that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X.com blocks access to Ekrem Imamoglu, leader of Turkish opposition⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought they didn’t block political figures… Guess the muskrat just meant the figures he agrees with…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Prices are out of control⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, you did just describe my experience with diet Pepsi pretty well…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Prices are out of control⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably more because of how easy it is to drink than raw strength… It’s way easier to put away a bunch of 70 proof sweetened liqueur than the same amount of alcohol worth of 80+ proof hard liquor, very easy to not realize how much you’ve had until way too late

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Prices are out of control⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure that’s regular Coke zero, unless they’ve changed the packaging again

  But yeah, something about the artificial sweetener just doesn’t work with alcohol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mark Zuckerberg personally lost the Facebook antitrust case⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, Ma Bell breaking up into the Baby Bells is the only real example I can think of, and even they came back together later (though, by then, there was enough diversity in the market that they couldn’t reclaim the level of market dominance they once had)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Synology could bring “certified drive” requirements to more NAS devices⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s what I’ve heard… Getting real tired of people building great products only for corpos to find a way to make it terrible for an extra buck

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Synology could bring “certified drive” requirements to more NAS devices⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  To the new system you’re migrating to

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Synology could bring “certified drive” requirements to more NAS devices⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, I had been considering one, but I guess not

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There’s AI Inside Windows Paint and Notepad Now⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been using it off and on for over twenty years and it’s never needed more than running the installer to get it working on Windows in that time…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨REPORT: Arm is sensationally canceling the license that allowed Qualcomm to make Snapdragon chips which power everything from Microsoft's Copilot+ PCs to Samsung's Galaxy smartphones and tablets⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I may be off base but I think that might be referencing what the computer chips are made of…
