I have been out of the PC game for a long time. Got a laptop recently and discovered you need to sign up for a subscription to use the office package, doesnt just come with windows any more. No big deal, my wife says she has a subscription as part of her phone contract.

Cool. Easy.

What. The fuck. Is this mess? Everything is saved on their servers instead of locally? I try to sign myself in but thats impossible because shes signed in except I cant use her licenses because im signed in which im not because shes signed in?

WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED HERE? WHO THE FUCK HAS PUT THEIR NAME TO THIS SHIT? HOW DOES ANY CUNT USE IT?

Not only that but you cant just open excel any more, you have to open the whole windows office launcher portal (which isnt even called office) and fumble your way around to try and find the file first or some bollocks? I don’t even know I nearly launched the laptop out the fucking window.

I have a mild existential crisis every time the Internet goes down. I have no idea what’s wrong, and I cant use the Internet to find out what’s wrong.

I dont work in IT but minor, minor, minor tweaks in the wording describes basically every job ive ever had.

Understandable, if youre gonna eat straight up dog shit it might as well be gourmet dogshit

You’re absolutely right, but the counterpoint that always wins - “there’s money to be made fuck you and fuck your humanity”

Must have been on reddit a long time, I got banned for saying kill like 3 times. None of them in a mean-spirited or call-to-action context.

Self censoring is hard to deprogram yourself out of, and by the time theyre comfortable with freedom of language again who’s to say it won’t be the same story here?

Isn’t this like 90% of the reason people prefer android over apple?

Kinda want

grug show design. many chief come. chief say: “make logo bigger.”

grug nod. grug ignore.

grug protect user from chief

Be more like grug.

Its simple. Give them more control and power over you or youre a pedophile.

I don’t bother with manuals any more. I never manage to retain much information unless I need it right now. Way easier to just fumble along and find what I need when I need it and cobble together a half-baked “understanding”.

Should go get some ADHD meds one day.

I play a kind of bingo in my head when I show my kids old stuff. Just tally up “thats from fortnite”

You’re not kidding about file structure. I haven’t got a fucking clue how to do it with phones. Every thing is just “in here somewhere” and it’ll pray the search feature can find it when I eventually locate the file browser.

I miss my PC

You won’t ever need to vote again

But do it quick while the country can still afford the internet

I used to think this is pretty much how games were really made when I was a tiny child. I couldn’t get over how many images needed to be created to get every possibility from every angle.

Was it Stimulation clicker?

I assumed the quote in the article was a man talking about his woman would think he’s cheating.
