Technology@lemmy.world•Thanks FedEx, This is Why we Keep Getting PhishedEnglish
3·4 hours agoI’m guessing within Microsoft, it’s probably was a pain in the ass to get whatever department in MS that controls the microsoft.com domain to set up a subdomain.
I’ve had to deal with shit like this personally so I guarantee that was at least one reason. The departments that control the domain treat it like some sort of power trip and make it hard to do the smart thing.

1·14 hours agoIt’s gotten to the point if the GOP wants it, there is some underlying nefarious reason so I should hate it. I mean if they suddenly wanted UBI, universal health care, and 3 day work weeks I’d start to wonder what’s up.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump Goes to North Carolina and Declares State ‘One of the Worst in the Whole Nation’English
1·2 days agoNot sure I’d call NC uneducated. Nationally it’s pretty average (22nd) but 2 of the top 10 most educated metro areas in the country are Raleigh/Cary and Durham/Chapel Hill. Most of the folks that go to the major universities just don’t leave, so the population is very educated in these regions.
But there are lots of rural areas that have lots of Trump signs for sure.

politics @lemmy.world•Hegseth's toughened 'standards' meant to thin women's ranks backfire on him: reportEnglish
41·3 days agoThe push up thing always confused me. Basic weight distribution in men is heavier in the chest and women being heavier toward the hips and thighs. So from a purely physics standpoint and my basic understanding of levers, in a second class lever the further a weight is from the fulcrum, the more work that has to be done. So wouldn’t that make pushups easier for women? I mean negating the basic strength differences but also subject to those same strength to weight ratios?

Technology@lemmy.world•People Are Pissed Off and Ready to Own Their ShitEnglish
3·3 days agoI hear you but honestly when I have time to game I just want to sit down and game. I used to have time to do that. Go find the pirated versions, or the cracks, fiddle with it for hours and then finally play. Not to mention the time and money to buy, build, and configure a decent gaming system. I don’t really care for the massively online versions because in my opinion online gaming is just so competitive and toxic so that’s not really an issue for me. All of this combined is why I typically had veered toward consoles. It was just easier. But since I gave up on Xbox and now Sony is pulling this shit, I’m seriously concerned about what options are even available at all, let alone unenshittified versions.
This is the cutest cat expression I believe I’ve ever seen.
It was a joke for fucks sake. But answering a question with a fucking game show noise is rude and immature. Quit giving Gen Z a pass for acting like assholes.

8·4 days agoLooks like someone left DLSS 5 on.
If I asked someone a direct question and they buzzed at me I would do one of three things:
- punch them to startle the demon trapped within
- directly ask “What the fuck is wrong with you?” because there is visible mental illness I should be aware of
- fire them if I had the ability.
Seriously people act like a fucking adult and not a feral inbred monkey with Tourette’s. Quirkiness is one thing but that’s just fucking rude.







Google has done good things. Google has also done shitty things. To me the problem is the good things aren’t frequent enough and the bad things seem to be the default recently.
