They messed up 10 years ago when for some reason it took ages for Firefox to load compared to Chrome, and sadly it never really recovered the user base even though the performance is vastly improved.

Somebody tried selling me a locked phone on eBay despite listing it as unlocked. The seller refused to be helpful so I filed a claim with eBay, waited the 10 days, eBay sided with me, got a refund and shipped the phone back, waited for the refund to process, then spent $100 more to buy the same device from Amazon.

If people could just get hired for the jobs that interest them the most instead of somebody always playing gatekeeper then this would be a non-issue. In fact I'm not even sure it's a current issue for employers, considering the stock market recently hit an all time high.

Also how does it get to 12.5 billion before people do something? Had they intervened with something less severe at 1 billion then there would still be 11.5 billion and a life not lost.

Be careful with linseed oil as it spontaneously combusts! My friend used it on something and left the rag in the garage, and it literally burnt their house down.

This reminds me of the time in HS when a letter broke off my laptop keyboard and my parents insisted on taking it to the shop for a repair. Turns out they really just wanted the shop to turn over my search history and chat logs. I already knew my parents were nosy so I would always delete it anyway.
One day I came home from school and they said the shop fixed the keyboard but just needed my password to test it and do updates. I said no it's fine if he can type in anything into the password then obviously the keyboard works, and I already did the updates regularly.
They literally had to beg me for the password and they were like pleasssse just give the shop the password so they can finish their checklist and you can get your computer back, and I was like fine if it's the only way I'm getting it back. Of course nothing came of it because there was nothing to discover.
Then my parents got the computer back but kept it in the trunk of their car for a week, and I accidentally saw it when we were leaving Old Navy which started a whole "I don't believe this!" discourse in the mall parking lot.
Moral of the story just talk to your kids instead of spying and lying, because they know and it won't work!

My company blames me when people fill out forms with junk data just to get to what was already a public link, then I have to go in the CRM every morning and delete a dozen "your moms" and "nunyas".

In HS photography class the teacher gave us CD-RW discs to use as flash drives to keep our pictures on and they actually lasted all semester using them every day.

A lot of malls in Asia have signs that say not to walk on the escalators. So yeah I guess if it breaks you're SOL if the people in front of you aren't rule breakers.

The YouTube viewing experience on FF is terrible. I have premium no ads and still manage to break the interface occasionally by clicking a new video or seeking the video playing.

This does happen though when they cc me on an email that has nothing to do with me, and expect me to dig through the whole thread to see why it's relevant.

The part about remote work that has caused things to stagnate is that most companies still aren't setup to hire out of their own state. So it's not done much to open the gate to opportunities that are a great fit and can be done remotely, because I'm in the wrong state. And there's still an attitude of "what would somebody in that place possibly know about things here". The likelihood I will ever be domiciled in the same place as where my perfect job happens to be is super unlikely. This is 95% employers just discriminating based on location because they don't want to do paperwork or have an open mind and 5% not having the benefit of in-person collaboration.

This is definitely how they do it, as someone who has a Walmart account and usually buys through the app. If I buy something in store with one of my linked cards, it stores the receipt in my account (and then asks me to review it)

Is it ok to create communities here for other stocks, ETFs, options and investments?
Someone on reddit mentioned there were rumors of a new GME instance being planned that would have communities for different aspects of the company and investing. It could even be a large instance for WSB or stocks, which might make more sense but I'm not sure. Would love to see this! 👽🔫🐀
