Everyone should immediately stop contributing to the stack overflow and its network. The human touch is what made it unique. Delete your profile from SO AND all your answers. Freeloaders are making money out of human contributions.
So this is what Microsoft is up to now? Sad. It is a pathetic company. Maybe the EU and FTC need to look into this kind of stuff. Trust and Microsoft have no relationship. If you care about your privacy, never use anything built by MS. Use Firefox or other browsers. I don’t use edge or windows but it was posted https://twitter.com/ianzelbo/status/1777450065214271750?s=46 here. I am amused by how they are abusing their power. #privacy#security
@nixCraft Oh I hated when Google did similar things back then if I am not mistaken. “Download Chrome” banner was appearing. (again if so am remembering correctly).
Yesterday, I spent my entire afternoon visiting badly located, old, and expensive houses.
I not only lost half a day of work (way more than initially agreed upon), failed to publish my daily Patroncast, couldn’t work on a video script, but also did that for nothing, as every single house I saw was absolute overpriced garbage.
@bagder There are so many projects which are considered as “they must be there” and underfunded or not funded at all. I believe, companies using packages should sponsor them.
Last week, I joined the TechCraft team for a really nice conversation (in French) about #Linux, various distributions, gatekeeping and using what works, followed up by some more general tech-focused things.
Decided to do a clean install of iOS 17 on my iPhone 15
Battery felt like it was draining abnormally quickly & there were apps I hoarded but never used. I don't know if a clean install improves the battery, but a fresh start is a great way to purge unneeded apps off my phone
Was away for a week visiting my parents. Don’t get to see them nearly enough, in no small part thanks to our lovely “European Values” meaning they have to jump through more hoops to come visit us in Ireland than they can manage at their age. You see, we don’t really see non-Europeans as human in Europe. They’re something less. A potential threat.
I may have an EU passport and pass for white but I never forget that. In fact, I think about it every time I miss my parents.
@aral, In France, I don’t see this often. I might have said before, I am uzbek and only citizenship I have is Uzbekistan. I also cannot be an example, because I have a blue card (passeport tallent). However, to invite my mom to visit me and my son, it is a bit of a headache. Also, if I loose my job, I will have only three month to find another, which is not always easy even as an engineer. If local person, looses a job, they can live on chômage but I can’t.
