Guys, Microsoft doesn't give two shits about home users. Their bread and butter is businesses. And M365 is amazing for business. If you think M$ suxors, you're not the target demographic. I'd much rather manage 200 users with

It's not weird, it's controlling. Needing everyone to wear mono-colored shirts with buttons on it to feel tidy is a you problem. A company I worked for (that I did generally like working for) implemented a suit and tie policy for

I have never had an issue with NAT and I've never even heard of someone having an issue. In what situation would you find NAT to be the root cause?

I work in tech support as well. I just give them a one sentence answer why that's not the problem and move on. Granted, I'm a director so I can be frank if I need to, but my support team wont take any bullshit. If people want to w

Just stop worrying about it. At the end of the day, they just want their shit fixed. I just explain why their idea isn't the solution. "We could monitor calls before we switched to Bluetooth headsets, I think that might be the pro

Gentrification ad a concept is bullshit. The alternative is sectioning off cities by race or income.

That's ridiculous. I can't imagine tip toeing around people like that. There's a big difference between being rude and being to the point. What you're describing is manipulative, patronizing, and weird.

Not really. Sometimes you actually have to understand things. If you're so concerned about your billing, someone on your team should probably invest a freaking hour to understand it. If that can't happen, you are just setting your

Do people think covering with paper or plastic helps block radiation? Pretty sure people so this to keep the microwave clean...

Yup. I bounced from slashdot, to reddit, and now here.

Yeah, I unsubbed the main subreddits years ago. I only stuck around for the tech stuff. And as they all grow bigger they turn into meme fests, "hey guys can you be Google for me?", stupid one liner in-jokes, and lowest common deno

The only reason you know not to put metal in the microwave is exactly because of 60 years of manuals. It's common knowledge now. You bet they talked about radiation and how a magnetron works in a microwave back the 60s.

Their site has been thoroughly trashed already. It's an absolute cesspool of bots and groupthink. When I joined back in 2007, it was a completely different site full of actual discussion and not just cringey self deprecating nerd jokes

Are you seriously asking how someone can listen to something and do another thing at the same time?

Some do, but it's stupid. There's no reason to do it that way other than laziness. And even that's the wrong word as that's much more difficult than using a board.

Someone wants to buy $27 mil in cocaine. Rather than use cash, they used art. That's really it.

No it doesn't. It's been possible to make homemade PCBs for decades. Even then, they could have at least used perfboard. No idea why someone would want to do it that way. That was fine for the 1920s, but there's no excuse for

Seems like an odd convention they are using. A pile of header files rather than using polymorphism and creating a class to handle everything. Lots of if else's. Might have to jump in a little further to see if there's a good reaso

I didn't say that at all. Putting effort into maintaining a social circle has greatly diminishing returns as you get older. It's just a fact of life. Priorities change as our age, and if they don't, you'll find yourself

Hold up. You're only 30. In my 20s, I was more like your ex. Didn't focus on my career, had tons of hobbies and a healthy social circle. Turns out, a "social circle" isn't really a thing in your mid to late 30s. You

Yes and yes. If you think that's all you need to be happy, you're mistaken. Got a promotion a few months ago. Great title. Love the job. Massive raise in pay. After about two days I sunk into a depression because it literally didn
