The mobile adaptation will be handled by PUBG Studios, the same team behind PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.
TIL wow
This is so fucking annoying.
All week we’ve had issues with users using Outlook only to discover today that it’s due to a faulty update on Microsoft’s part and they haven’t released a fix for it so we need to revert.
I’m getting realllllllly tired of having to fix Microsoft’s mistakes and be their beta testers while we pay for that privilege. And this is all with them offering a program for users to be actual beta testers. Their stable channel is riddled with bugs too.
People need to quit putting up with this.
I’m personally moving away from it and wish my job would follow suit instead of rewarding them with more business.
All of my hoodies. I love having a hoodie with a zipper down the middle of it. People say I’ve lost weight because it sort of hides my belly 😂 but I like the feeling and the cool weather that comes with wearing one.
It’s a shame I can’t always wear one.
I don’t think so. Either that or it’s going to be pricey and not likely to work with a cell phone natively like how it is now with your wireless carrier.
One of my pervious jobs used RingCentral which is what I had in mind with my comment. They do have an iPhone and Android app that can send and receive texts and calls, but it’s all strictly through their app. I suppose you could do a forward to your number, but you’re going to need to have an existing number for that which kind of defeats this purpose.
You can manage call queues and the like on the backend in the browser to create something like this where it would send callers through a maze of menus to eventually be able to get to you.
Additionally, you could program a key press to you that wouldn’t be made known to callers such as pressing 7 to immediately be “transferred” to you (something you’d only tell trusted callers calling you) but that’s not stated in the call queue prompt.
I also imagine any business VoIP has a set minimum of numbers/users to sign up with them since they’re really for business, not personal use. But hey! Give it a shot and see or try one of their competitors.
Kind of an interesting thing to think about since you mentioned it.
The VoIP services they subscribe to usually help with this to some degree in identifying common patterns to cut down on some of the spam.
Beyond that, businesses implementing call queues & bot menus is what helps cut down on the rest of it.
It’s becoming more rare to actually get in contact with a human from many businesses nowadays. Businesses seem to want users to use a bot that will help the customer do whatever it is they’re doing as much as possible.
And the only way to get to said human is through a series of menus and questions, usually confirming they actually are a customer.
Long gone are the days of calling and getting a human to give your information to.
When you call something like Bank of America, they prove you are a customer because you give them your account number or they recognize that based on your caller ID and also have to still provide SSN or date of birth, so even if someone spoofs an actual customer’s number, they’re stuck in the menu and never reach a human.
What was the issue you faced? Or was it multiple issues?
One of the differences is that Osama bin Laden was not the leader of any recognized state in the world whereas Putin is.
Putting a literal bullseye on another country’s leader would be seen as an act of war.
Also, the US is not currently in (direct) war with Russia while the US was with Osama’s group.
It’s not really new as it’s just replacing the search button which is where the Caps Lock key is on every other computer.
I’ll start the bidding at the reasonable price of $0.50
I wish they had implemented this sooner. For a very long while, Microsoft logins were broken on the Deck and only just got fixed a few months ago, if I remember right. Before that, you had to blindly enter your credentials and hope you were clicking the right spots and it was picking up your typed words. It was a mess.
But this is good news to hear. While Sony shoots themselves in the foot by requiring it, Microsoft’s studios’ devs are going the opposite direction. Hope to see more of this.
I wasn’t really sure what the benefit was of having the account linked anyway. Because I was hoping to sync my backyards across devices so I could play on the go, but it didn’t seem to do that when I finally could log into Microsoft successfully.
I’ve tried adblocker apps and VPNs with adblockers too but YouTube ads find a way through and this happens even when on my home WiFi for my iPhone where my PiHole is.
I’ve tried various lists in my PiHole and none seem to block ads. I only get to block ads on my computers with the uBlock Origin extension.
I’ve read a lot of people say that PiHole cannot block ads from YouTube because of the way YouTube serves up ads which is on the same server as the video the user wants to play. While adblocker extensions in the browser work similarly to how YouTube Premium does, somehow.
The most I got with PiHole was completely breaking all YouTube videos.
If I could get my PiHole to block YouTube ads, I could create a VPN and have that blocker available on the go on my iPhone too. But it doesn’t seem possible at this time from what I’ve found.
I’d love to find a way to make this to work though. It’s why I set up my PiHole to begin with but kept it up for the other features that have been useful.
It sounds like this is happening because your computer still has Chrome as the default browser. Assuming this is Windows: right-click one of the icons on the desktop, click Properties, then click Change and select Firefox.
This will now set Firefox as the default browser for your computer and these icons should now automatically open in Firefox as well as any new ones you create.
Creating an icon on the desktop is very similar in the process you would have done for Chrome too.
The problem here is that you can’t create icons that are exclusive to Chrome or Firefox, as far as I know, since Windows chooses, by default, one app that will open these by default.
Technically you could bypass this by right-clicking the desktop icon and then select “Open in” and then choose the other browser in case you need to open one in Chrome and the other in Firefox.
What ways are you aware of for adblocking on the iPhone and Apple TV? I have a PiHole for my network, but ads are still getting through to both of these through the official YouTube app. I’d love to get a way to bypass them if it exists for the iPhone/Apple TV!
I’ll have to go see the trailers now after having seen it, but I have to say that the three of us really enjoyed the movie.
That’s a shame that happens. I wonder how often that’s happened for me too, that a trailer turned me off to a movie I likely would have liked.
It’s funny how we sometimes become our own worst enemies in life and don’t even realize it.

I wouldn’t mind if it just hurt them.
Unfortunately it’s our heads they’re banging up against a wall with these stupid decisions nobody asked for.
