Union Thug, and nerd.

I used to work at Google and they let a small group of us try to help save the world. Not sure how we managed that.

Now I have a job that also lets me help people.

I'm a dad and I'm a fan of being a dad. A+ would recommend it.

Also, we need to ban golf and bulldoze all golf courses.

And join your union.

Also shut up I know am old and cranky

Look, making fun of Rishi Sunak is easy, but when it's done well, it's very funny.

I'm going to suggest that if you are in any way involved in handling customer complaints at a hosting provider? Trying to bullshit me might end up with me going "ok you're clearly swapping to spinning rust, this is the third time in three weeks, here's the chapter of the SRE book about how to write a postmortem"

Tomorrow I'm going to get fuckin spicy at the hosting provider. Migrating 20 or more Wordpressen across a bunch of virtual hosts would be a pain in the clack, particularly because I would have to do it

Honestly you are swapping to spinning rust and booking the I/O to the container? What the fuck year is this again?

@swearyanthony@mastodon.social avatar

I am sure as fuck going to demand an actual postmortem from them. We give you money for service. Your service has repeatedly failed. You tell me why this happened and what you are doing to stop this keep happening

I don't wanna get all Karen about this but I am definitely gonna escalate this fucker.

"we give you money to make website go" 👍
"website does not go" 👎
"I contact you to get website to go" 👍
"you gaslight and otherwise lie to me about the problem" 🤬🤬💩

Just, my dudes, I have been doing this shit for over 30 years. I realise that as front line customer service folks you don't have the experience to diagnose these issues. You should also have enough training to not fuckin lie.

Remember a few weeks ago when some clown shoes lawyers tried a bogus copyright takedown of merch saying "Fuck the LAPD" on behalf of the LAPD, and the initial legal response was "LOL, no"? Well the longer response is out, and it is a work of art. They managed to use the phrase "Fuck the LAPD" 15 times in 4 pages. Make sure to check the footnotes, too. A work of pure savagery, with citations.

Don't feed Gremlins after midnight. Ok sure but what about timezones and daylight savings? Does Gizmo even have access to NTP? What about leap seconds?

Lol and also lmao. Van Onselen is a fucking idiot. You might wonder how you ended up at the Daily Mail. He's stupid enough to not consider that

Rereading Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy for the first time in many years, and it's wild to realise how much of the modern nerd culture is downstream of that book. mostly the good bits of nerd culture.

I'm very much in agreement that this "AI" bubble (it's never going to be AI, c'mon now) has less than 12 months before the big ones run out of VC suckers. Sadly cleaning up the web ecosystem that these clowns are polluting in search of non existent profits is going to be a fucking nightmare.

Always fun when you are switching to a new phone and transfer stuff from the old one, which apps require manual intervention. Signal, sure. Discord tho?

(My old phone isn't dead, it just expressed unfavourable opinions about Putin while standing near a window)

So if you don't pay, you don't get search results full of GPT trash? Genius move from the brain geniuses at the higher levels of Google, truly amazing (also remove the sharp scissors and staplers from their offices) https://arstechnica.com/ai/2024/04/google-might-make-users-pay-for-ai-features-in-search-results/

Given Sydney is going into lots of rain all the time, and I have to do walking to collect our little guy, what's the best footwear? I am thinking some basic ass gumboots that will deflect asshole drivers running through a gutter. @Kels_316 any ideas
