BaldProphet , 2 months ago to Antiwork in Bernie Sanders: It’s time for a 4-day work week | CNN Opinion

I love my 4-day workweek. My company still gets 40 hours of work out of me each week (minus mandatory breaks) and I get a bit of overtime on some of those hours. Better still, two people can cover an entire day, whereas three were needed back when we worked 8 hour shifts.

Can confirm that Windows Server is taught in school IT programs, and can confirm that Windows Server is still being used for both Active Directory and on-premises virtualization (Hyper-V). I interned at a large international organization with networks on 6 continents and it was moving its server infrastructure back to its own datacenters because of rising costs of cloud hosting. It used Hyper-V on Windows Server to host every thing.

And yet, half of my website is hosted on Azure Storage. That little unsolicited remark about Microsoft's valuation at the bottom is clearly the result of smoking too much copium by the biased author.

She could donate a life-changing amount of money to every Fediverse user and still have more left over than she knows to do with.

Perhaps there is a tonal message in your words that you didn't intend (your native language seems to be German?). This paragraph comes across as dismissing my comment while making a sweeping, inaccurate, and baseless judgment that I "distrust any media that contradicts my beliefs:"

But by you talking about “the media” I guess you are trying to find reasons to further your already present distrust in any media that contradicts your beliefs?

Hard to see how that couldn't be meant as, at best, a passive-aggressive dig, implying some level of instability or paranoia.

"The media" is a common term in American English that refers to mainstream news outlets. I said I felt gaslit because the early headlines and articles on this topic suggested that names were made visible, not that they were merely added to accounts.

Regardless, there is no call for personal attacks. I'm sure you can find the maturity to respond to comments you disagree with in ways that don't involve attacking the users who post them.

BaldProphet , 3 months ago to Technology in Users ditch Glassdoor, stunned by site adding real names without consent

Lol not sure why the somewhat gratuitous character attack there, but whatever.

BaldProphet , 3 months ago to Technology in Users ditch Glassdoor, stunned by site adding real names without consent

I went to my Glassdoor account and the only place I could see my name was in the community part, where people ask questions of other professionals. Some users still seemed to have their names hidden, so it must be possible to do so. My company reviews are still anonymous.

I honestly can't find any evidence that what the media are saying is happening is actually happening. I feel gaslit tbh lol

Yeah okay. Your far-left talking points aren't convincing me and are definitely making your point harder to parse.

You're also misunderstanding. I won't deny that US companies seek profit wherever they can, even from unethical sources. I also don't doubt their involvement with law enforcement and intelligence agencies. But a company seeking profit through a partnership with the United States federal government is not the same as the totalitarian Chinese government requiring oversight of Chinese companies.

It might not seem like a big difference to you, but it's an important one to me.

BaldProphet , 3 months ago to Memes in Thank you American software

No, you're misunderstanding. The Chinese government has significantly more influence and power over Chinese companies than the US federal government has over US companies. People are acting like both are the same, but they are not.

US companies != US federal government

To be honest, it just sounds like you have an unnecessary chip on your shoulder.

BaldProphet , 4 months ago to Technology in Sudo is coming to Windows 11

Sounds like a bit of a desperate reach to attach the EEE label to this.
