News report - Date unknown

In the early days of the war the Russian regime made regular threats to use nuclear weaponry, but most experts and lay-people believed that even that brutally sadistic despot would not go the extreme of destroying the earth to achieve his goals.

By 2024 Russia was doing small-scale ecocide in hopes of lending credence to their threats. Looking back, the poisoning of an entire riparian ecosystem connected to the Desna River in what was Ukraine should have been a clear signal of what was to come. But nobody listened and the nuclear weapons flew.

I am not making a joke here. This is where my brain naturally went when reading this. Let’s just hope my invasive thoughts are wrong.

[Edit: I am also not saying to appease this fucking psycho either. This is just a snippet of thought that I felt the urge to share.]

Soft Play - Punk’s Dead

15+ years working remote. I only turn my camera on when there are new vendors/clients on the call and it is my turn to introduce myself.

I pay for yt family premium and Netflix but use neither of them on a regular basis.

My nephews grew up with a pretty shitty life. They don’t have a lot of fun things they can do in their situation. I figured the least I could do is give them YouTube music and some access to watch TV and movies on Netflix wherever they happen to be.

It’s the same reason my steam family is chock full of games I’ll never play.

Has strawberry gotten any easier to theme? I tried a few years back and just couldn’t handle the aesthetics, and theming it seemed to only do some parts properly.

City of Heroes has been golden by comparison.

Every day makes me understand Marvin from HHGTTG more and more.

In which way am I complaining? I am explaining why calling a valid solution a bandaid might be construed as belittling their very real knowledge of this process. And how that is a regular pattern in a lot technical fields.

And don’t give me this shit about ‘I’m not the person you were talking to’ This is an open forum not a direct/private message.

You can’t expect people who are knowledgeable about this stuff to just forever accept that someone asks for advice, gets told the solution, and then ignores/belittles the person with knowledge.

This is our daily life experience. We get hired to be experts, and get told by non-experts that our solutions are not tenable every single day. Only for that solution to eventually be accepted when the user in question figures out their idea was not useful and the expert was correct.

We have to put up with it at work, we are not obliged to accept it here.

That the folks in IT have any sway over microsoft or facebook’s ui plans.

NO Karen, I can not make Teams go back to the way it used to be. No matter how many times you ask.

I should mention that we also really enjoyed the back streets and small neighbourhoods. They made up for a lot of the disappointment.

I wanted to visit Paris my whole life. Pere Lachaise cemetery, the Eiffel tower, the museums, the food.

When I got there the cemetery was filled with lying grifters trying to sell bullshit stories about the people interred there. The tower was full of pick pockets and scumbags ripping off tourists for thread bracelets. The museums were filled with influencers blocking access to a lot of the displays with their stupid duck lips and tag-along ‘photographers’ with their iphones .

The only thing that lived up to the dream was the food. Oh my the food…

Oh… And the experience of seeing a woman shitting in the seine in broad daylight. That was kind of exciting too…

Check out who runs CNN now and all will become apparent.

Ducati.ms will be your best friend.

Yeah, I’m a little bit too much into motorcycle forums…

And motorcycles!

Shameless plug for the triumph bobber forum and triumphrat if you are into those bikes.
