The dek gives the game away. The “future of the workforce” is all that matters. Why had we been doing all this gaining of knowledge in college all this time?

Damn. Well, thus ends this excursion. At least I didn’t end up in Iran first.

Google allows you to save passwords across apps, whereas a password manager remains in the browser.

I’m fine with that timeline. The rollout in Austin hasn’t been the smoothest – though in faiirness, we now have so many Waymos in town that they keep having issues like knowing what to do when encountering an emergency vehicle. They aren’t going around killing people, but that’s a pretty low bar.

If swiping were effective, dating apps would have no business model, because people would pair off and cancel. This “revolutionary” change is being instituted solely for Bumble’s bottom line and can’t possibly be more effective because that would kill revenue.

Remember: The current crop of dating apps do not exist to help you find love. They’re extraction machines running off of FOMO.

Solar on a van has been my life for couple of years. Of course, now diesel’s expensive enough in Texas that fleeing will run $1/mile.

So, $5 per litigant after legal fees, assuming the DOJ doesn’t step in and claim to be the defendant.

It is left as an exercise for the reader.

“Just commenting” and then tearing down anyone who points out holes in your argument is not a conversation; it’s trolling.

My Lumia 950XL remains my favourite phone I’ve ever owned. Live Tiles were amazing. I just unlocked my phone and had a dashboard constantly providing new information as opposed to a little dot in the corner of an icon indicating activity.

If not for the app gap and discontinuation of the OS, I’d still be happily using it.

Surveillance is the goal. “For the children” has proven an effective red herring over the years.

Why in the everliving fuck would you give software delete access to your live backups? Like, in what scenario is this a solution?

Historically, college girls would make extra scratch via exotic dancing or other offline activities. Claiming this isn’t tech-related is disingenuous.

How is TikTok unrelated to tech?

This is not the correct question. It simply needs to breach 80% of what a human can do for corporations to switch over, as consumers don’t give a shit about 100%.

There are still plenty of counterculture people in tech. They just don’t run the show. (Source: burner community)

That’s not nearly enough to turn a DeLorean into a time machine.

I’d say something, but it’s pretty much all been covered. They’re now too big to fail, so we just have to put up with whatever they serve up next.

I’m not changing phone ecosystems, as I enjoy having some marginal level of control over the hardware I fucking purchased. Search is fucking worthless; I’ve not used that in ages. DDG gets the job done without a screen and a half of ads and sponsored content.

Who the fuck puts up with this shit?

Also, as I have nearly run out of fucks to give: Fuck. And now I’m out of them again.

Both had “I’m a junior designer” vibes about them. If you saw the first few pages I designed in college, those were far worse. Of course, we didn’t have the luxury of CMYK, let alone just coughing up RGB shit. I’m used to seeing execrable design.

Would it have if you’d not been told it was ahead of time, though?
