What's with your pride in being complacent?

813-823-6615 was my childhood number until I was 10. My mom sang it to us. Never thought to remember my lock code. 0-31-10.

"I can't be bothered to update my signature" - you could fix it in half the time it takes to post here. It's just a weird... I'd say flex, but it's the opposite. It's like a sag or deflation.

I met Waters once at a viewing of Pecker. The dude is a gem.

When I met him, we had some absurd questions during the audience participation part. My friend asked, "suburban Baltimore is such an interesting backdrop for a movie. Both mundane and interesting. As a young black artist in America, I'd like to know what you think about lowriders."

My other friend had him sign her maxipad wrapper. This friend also happens to be the nice of Patsy from Ab Fab.

"Fuckin' A." is the only correct response.

X automatically changed 'Twitter' to 'X' in domain names, breaking legit URLs (mashable.com)

On Monday, it appears X attempted to encourage users to cease referring to it as Twitter and instead adopt the name X. Some users began noticing that posts viewed via X for iOS were changing any references of "Twitter.com" to "X.com" automatically....

Naming convention. Internal DNS. If you're asking this, you are woefully unprepared. If you're unprepared, you need someone to help.

Because Veeam can be good, but it's only as good as the user pays for. I do ransomware recovery and incident response management for a living. More often than not, Veeam is implemented poorly and does not do what the customer thinks they paid for.

It's not specifically fault of the product. However, in my experience in this field, the only time client backups are encrypted is due to a false sense of security due to negligence and ignorance.

Veeam should not be configured by an inexperienced or underfunded tech staff.

Your Easter was ruined because you don't have common sense. Sorry, but that's just idiotic.

Personally I pay for Kagi which has been decent enough

Whats "decent enough" mean? I've been curious and you're the only person I've known who pays for it.

If they weren't all so abysmally bad at handling their cars, maybe I'd have a different take. I swear that I get cut off, stuck behind, blocked by, or otherwise inconvenienced for dumb reasons by Teslas every time I drive.

It's like despite all the cameras, they have zero spatial awareness. Or it's a direct reflection of what's in their head.

Orbituary ,
@Orbituary@lemmy.world avatar

It's not just to my own driving. It's compared to other cars around them and to other cars around me. I just as often see Tesla drivers do stupid things unrelated to me.

I was at the mountain snowboarding this weekend. Two Teslas attempted to drive up the road to park. Both got stuck in the same place, one after the other. Then, instead of backing up or getting out of the way, they just got out and walked to the resort lodge.

This is just idiotic behavior and I see it time and time again. Seattle, where I live, has one of the highest Tesla ownership percentages in the country.

I'm all for electric cars. I am trying to understand why Tesla drivers have so many morons behind the wheel.

Orbituary ,
@Orbituary@lemmy.world avatar

Interesting take. Thanks.

Do you think that embarrassment of the purchase, ignorance of what's good, or status prevent more buyers from talking about that? As a person who enjoys the act of driving (though not the experience of driving in this city), I should see if I can get behind the wheel of one and attempt to be objective.

Edit: relevant post.

I have a 73 Porsche 914, it's my second. I've had two 1970 Monte Carlos. Both vastly different vehicles, but both are extremely visceral cars. You're extremely connected to the road and the vehicle.

There seems to be an abstraction layer with Teslas.

Renting one is a great idea.

Fanfiction Community Rocked By Etsy Sellers Turning Their Work Into Bound Books (www.404media.co)

Etsy sellers are turning free fanfiction into printed and bound physical books, and listing them for sale on online marketplaces for more than $100 per book. It’s a problem that’s rattling the authors of those fanfics, as well as their fans and readers....

I'm working with a douchebag billionaire directly right now on a complex project related to the ransomware encryption of a healthcare provider. Because he's part of the private equity firm and a billionaire, he thinks he knows how to drive the resolution better than I and my team of techs do.

All he does is drag me into more meetings and force me to get my techs to do shit that's not conducive to restoring their systems.

He's a giant waste of self aggrandized trash.

I have. He knows better. /s

At the risk of sounding like Spinal Tap, why don't they just make the chargers stop at 80% and have the interface show 100%?

You took all that effort to put the zeros and commas in, but put the $ on the wrong side of the number.

Neat.

I believe you just responded to a message with the answer to your question.

Sadly, you have to make that comment at end because nuance is fucking dead and most numbskulls on the internet can't fathom the possibility of disagreeing with something that they're going to support.

Biden is garbage. But compared to Trump, he's a saint. Do I want Biden? No. But he will get my vote because we don't get to have good things here and so our options are limited to "shit or shinola."

AMD removes Taiwan branding from CPUs, says change wasn't made to appease China | The 'Made in Malaysia' markings will remain, though. (www.tomshardware.com)

AMD removes Taiwan branding from CPUs, says change wasn't made to appease China | The 'Made in Malaysia' markings will remain, though.::AMD will no longer mark its chips as made in Taiwan, a change that many theorize was made at the behest of China.

I'm sure it has nothing to do with Ireland's recent stance on One China Policy. (AMD has a huge presence in Ireland and is one of my previous clients.)

Agreed. One man's mold is another man's psychedelic substance. It's a subjective line that varies for everyone.

AI is easy because the line is clear.

alt text: A screenshot from the game Silent Hill, where the player character is facing a dog house with the subtitle "Probably a doghouse, though I'm not sure since there's no dog around" while a mutilated, hairless, braised-skin dog-like creature jumps in from the right of the frame towards the player character.

Man. Seeing the alt text really makes these posts slap. Makes me wish I was blind.

If you compromise on the very topic you're promoting, you don't care enough.
