His palms are sweaty

Most of us would probably just be fine with PWAs, but the marketing branch says no... They need everything possible about you, need the app to run at startup and send you notifications at least every 4 hours...

I always check if the was packaged by the developer. I tend not to trust apps packaged by someone else.

My guess is that the agents answering are also not shared any information why some domains are blocked. I would also think that they have no idea what a domain is. Not the chatbots that answered the first couple of mails. :D

And there's when you spend 20 minutes composing your argument, then you decide to delete it, because "It's not worth it."

One of the few things we agree on with my spouse is not having a TV in the bedroom. The TV in the living room and our PCs are enough, the bedroom is for sleeping.

And also if you are a manager and one of the team members perform poorly and you cannot help the person improve, you should rather let that person go before you get to a state, in which you write such mails.

I always ask if they have a curtain. Why have one, when you have nothing to hide? It blocks the view, sunlight...

I must have hit that 1% last time. I assembled a new PC, wanted to install debian and could not get a login screen after installation. At that point I wanted something that just works. I installed Xubuntu and had the machine ready right away.

I looked into this a year ago and most sites did not offer to register a second key, so if you lose your key, you can kiss many of your accesses goodbye. I would never have the key to my digital life on a keychain... The idea is good, but it will cause huge damage if you lose your HW key. On the other hand, if you are cautious and use different PWs and a password manager with 2FA, you are quite safe.

Sucks to see something go this way. Recently I was forced to flash stock ROM on an older phone to be able to use revolut, because they cracked down on custom firmwares...

I got a notification about it when I upgraded from 20.04 LTS that they will only serve it as a snap package.

That's what Iam aiming for at the next hardware update. I don't have the space for a server rack and a SFF desktop would also not fit into my home, so a miniPC it'll be. I cannot wait to move to x86.

I know I cannot win this one, but on my last attempt to reason with them, I asked for a list of allowed domains...

Oh, the good ol' T&C violation, of course not saying which part... vinted is smashing hard on people not using big tech solutions.

Code before hoes.

Catdog is quite similar in terms of "aesthetics" and craziness.

Had to scroll too long for this. Exactly, they have been trying for years, this time they are getting further with it.

Fully agree. I once wanted to try it. I took a look at the documentation for partitioning and realized that I needed 2 full days for a working installation and constant access to another PC to be able to read the documentation.. No thanks, I don't care about the hate, Debian/Ubuntu is up and running in 30 mins and gets out of the way...

Sir, this is a wendy's.
