- Comment on Why Denmark is dumping Microsoft Office and Windows for LibreOffice and Linux 1 week ago:
I teach boomers how to use SharePoint. Last week Microsoft updated office.com to be 95% copilot. The only way to find “All Apps” (word, SharePoint, PowerPoint, excel, etc.) is to find the tiny little “apps” button all the way at the bottom of the screen.
Everything else is copilot. Everyone is confused and my job just got 100% harder.

You joke but kids would be carted off to the principals office if they sat down or didn’t have their hands over their hearts, or if they were goofing off during “the pledge”.

I used to live there. Most houses have a flag in the front of the house near the front door. They make you stand with your hand over your heart and chant your fealty to the flag. They make you sing songs about the flag in music class as a kid. Bangers like “Grand Old Flag”.

- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 3 weeks ago:
I can tell you right now that something like a username and password is exceptionally difficult for most users. Many just have one password for every single application and if they need to use a different email or password, they will be stuck.
The vast overwhelming majority of users do not have password managers, do not know they exist, and will give up at the first sign of complexity. You’re too far into the weeds if you don’t conceptualize this.
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 3 weeks ago:
The overall vast majority of everyone is completely tech illiterate. We can blame them for their lack of tech skills all we want but that won’t change anything. Jellyfin needs a better UX before it’s feasible to use over Plex when sharing libraries with other users.
- Comment on Trump says a 25% tariff "must be paid by Apple" on iPhones not made in the US, says he told Tim Cook long ago that iPhones sold in the US must be made in the US 4 weeks ago:
You’re right. There’s absolutely no evidence of Trump being not of sound mind.
- Comment on That's it. That's the joke. 4 weeks ago:
I sat in the room as my wife experienced the most brutal pain she has ever gone through. That woman has such a high pain tolerance that she scares me. And yet I felt sick just hearing her. The fact that they don’t anesthetize for this is criminal and fucking embarrassing as a society.

Thank you for this. It’s beautiful.
- Comment on I'm guilty of not reading the f..ing documentation 5 weeks ago:
Highly specialized people live in bubbles and assume that everyone else lives in their same bubble and so if someone else doesn’t understand, they aren’t worth communicating with.
- Comment on I'm guilty of not reading the f..ing documentation 5 weeks ago:
In my experience, all the Linux documentation I have read has been written for peers of Linux developers, who are familiar with technical terminology and several concepts and steps are left out and implied rather than explained.
It’s a way for developers to ensure that Linux never receives adoption past other developers. Literary equivalent of pulling the ladder up.
- Comment on Google restores Nextcloud user’s file access on Android 5 weeks ago:
For me it’s because Nextcloud also has a mobile app and it’s easy to transfer files between my iPhone and my server and other computers
- Comment on Google restores Nextcloud user’s file access on Android 5 weeks ago:
I’ve been self hosting Nextcloud for over a year now. Fantastic. It’s like OneDrive. Syncs all my files on my computers so I’ve got multiple backups on different machines with one central location (the server running Nextcloud).
Tons of plugins and documentation, so any errors you may have are easily fixed. Haven’t had it mess up on me once. It just works.

- Comment on Oblivion Remastered - Bugs, Glitches, and Fixes 1 month ago:
Last night I tried doing the Corruption and Conscience quest in Cheydenhall and got to the very end.
It told me to wait 2 hours before meeting a dude at a tavern. I waited 2 hours and the dude never showed up. Turns out you’re supposed to wait in front of the tavern and not right next to him. Totally bugged, can’t complete it.
I looked it up and used a console command which reset his character and allowed me to finish the quest but at the expense of any and all future achievements (since using a single console command removes steam achievements).
Had to decide if quest completion or achievements were more important to me. Sucks.

Fuck man. I used to use a program called “Kidpix” when I was a kid. It was like ms paint but with fun effects and sounds.

You’re right. It’s horrible and evil and I should disavow both my wife and her cousin for participating in such a thing and burn the entire thing down and free the cows.
- Comment on Are Dairy Robots the Secret to Happier Cows and More Efficient Farms? 2 months ago:
My wife’s cousins dairy farm has one of these robots. It’s like a big roomba that dispenses hay. The cows love that machine lol. He also has an automated cow hugger and cows like up to get squeezed by this machine. It’s pretty cool.

There are lots of European smartwatches as well. I too had a garmin but after the united states declared war on canada we have/are purging all US tech/products from our house.

It’s also not trustworthy. Would you want the united states to have access to your heart rate, pulse ox, gps location, and other health stats?
