Only reason I use an AirBNB is if it's a unique location where there are no hotels (like a cabin in the woods on a river or something) but I agree, I only book ones that don't have a ridiculous checkout policy.

I also hate that private equity has taken over towns with short term rentals making the rest of us pay more in rent.

I think this will be a major issue with AI. Just because it was trained on a huge wealth of knowledge doesn't mean that it was trained on correct knowledge.

My mom bought a cheap HP printer/scanner several years ago and subscribed to their "instant ink" subscription which was actually surprisingly cheap (like $3/mo) but once the printer stopped reliably connecting to the internet and nobody could print wirelessly anymore with it, she canceled the subscription and HP DISABLED ALL OF THE INK CARTRIDGES. The cartridges themselves have wifi connections so HP can automatically send you new ink when they get low. What a scam.

I asked for help on the Discord server of LinuxServer.io and they were literally talking shit about me to each other while I was in the chat because I didn't understand their utter garbage documentation for a Docker I was having trouble with, even with a CS degree.

I had my holiday time off canceled for the second year in a row, but I can't even do any work because the customer that threw their problems at us while they're on vacation didn't provide enough specifications.

During my standup yesterday we literally determined I don't have any work to do. Thanks boss.

I was writing my resignation in my head all weekend instead of enjoying my holiday.

I had a "gf" in Runescape when I was 12. She was like 30, and married or had a boyfriend.

Shit was wild back then. I'm also gay so this didn't make much sense for me anyways 😂

I've seen a few studies on this, I'd have to dig up some sources but socio/psychopaths do tend to seek power... So CEO rates of socio/psychopathy are significantly higher.

Personally, I miss out on a lot of group chats because all of my friends have iPhones.

They'll create a group chat, I won't get any messages, then suddenly I'm getting a call on Saturday saying "hey are you coming to the party?" or more often than not I don't get notified at all and end up hearing about all of the things I miss at a later time. It's annoying, but I really hate iOS so I deal with it.

I've got an iMessage server running on my NAS but it's not perfect, it requires that the iPhone user send the message to my iMessage account associated with my email, not with my phone number.

I got a second degree in computer science to try and get ahead and instead entered the market just in time for hundreds of thousands of layoffs so now I'm stuck making less than I did at my last job meanwhile inflation and rent have increased the cost of living by like 50%.

Edit: oh and suddenly WFH = evil according to every CEO because of their billions of dollars of real-estate investments

This is the reason I dislike TDD.

The empty space/right justified comment upvote menu really messes with the muscle memory of trying to upvote something.

Ublock released an update that allowed it to keep working on YouTube.
