You know what is truly ridiculous? It’s when I installed Windows N (the version without all that bullshit), but each time I launched a game, it complained that some Xbox app was missing. When I finally said, ‘Fuck it, let’s install that crap,’ I learned that it isn’t even possible to install on that Windows edition. Yet they would still show me the error about the missing app nonetheless. Every. Single. Time.

I made a stupid joke

Nah, the joke was fine. They overreacted.

But this isn’t the first time Ukraine kept a military operation in secret.

Only prayers.

basic settings being buried deep in the menus is definitely a thing ✅

Nah, there is:

1. A special hotkey that allows you to find and execute virtually any command. Same in vscode with ctrl+shift+p.
2. Text-based search in the settings dialog.

So even though things are buried somewhere deep, it’s easy to find them.

freezing at critical moments can occasionally be a thing ✅

Sounds like a skill hardware issue tbh.

Damn, our hiring process was wrong all this time!

TG is an app for big groupchats and channels

You make it sound like that’s the sole purpose. There are 1:1 chats in Telegram and people actively use them. Everything else builds on top of that.

Anyone still uses Telegram?

Like 1B monthly active users.

We are still here. Still queer. Still human. And still at risk.

And we are still a community where people are supposed to post jokes related to programming.

Modern problems require modern solutions! Thanks.

Yeah, that’s a good idea. Thanks.

You can’t “skill issue” yourself out from every situation

If you can’t do that - that’s a skill issue tbh.

I think both are fine. Regular people don’t need more than “app”, but professionals still know and use other words too.

What confuses me is why they are talking about Boeing. Boeing is just a legal entity. What about the people who made those crashes possible?

Not following German media.

My favorite is when they don’t have this check, but silently slice the string to meet the requirement, so that you can’t login with the original password the next time.

I don’t know how people watch YouTube with ads. Premium or ad blocker, otherwise it’s a nightmare.

Recording a 1h meeting with a smartphone sounds like a nightmare.

Still, it’s important to remind the world about that, so that the world doesn’t give up on Ukraine and doesn’t elect Putinverstehers.

All he has to do is to stop the war and fly to The Hague.
