Look up your phone on dontkillmyapp.com and make sure tailscale is excluded from battery and network “optimization”.

Nah, you want bimbos.

Yeah that’s a nice reaction, the other dude wasn’t being a jerk so no need to make him feel bad about it.

The VBA part of the meme is real, VBA is (was?) localized. Turns out it’s a horrible idea: some keywords are badly translated, some are not translated at all. Googling localized error messages is useless, so you need to guess the original error message from the translation. Want to copy/paste a function from SO? Not so fast, you need to translate the keywords first! And the variable names as well while you’re at it.

Ironically, you end up spending a lot of time on translation-related issues. I’ve worked on a french-VBA app, and it was a miserable experience (well, even more miserable than english VBA).

The title text mentions imagemagick, there are other examples in the wiki.

That’s how they translated it in French so I guess you’re right

+1 for earasers. They’re very efficient and comfortable , and I wear them for 12 hours a day for 4 days straight during Hellfest each year.

Lots of modern indie or AA games are cheap and really, really good.

Didn’t know poppy was still around.

She’s actually growing in popularity, opening for and collaborating with major bands. She’s booked on a lot of metal festivals as well.

It’s a huge ball they put up in Las Vegas because why the fuck not I guess? It seems to be a huge screen because it was a US flag in the other picture I’ve seen.

Nick Fuentes, for one. He seems pretty proud of it judging by his Twitter.

Yeah but they weren’t one of the main driving forces behind a major political party at the time.

(If you haven’t seen Severance yet, get on your big screen and watch it now, you won’t regret it)

Yeah, I’m pretty sure 15 minutes after this post OP was crawling barefoot in HVAC ducts.

The point is also to minimize potential damages caused by a bug in the software. Just this year there have been multiple data-destroying bugs in publicly released software. If the app runs as a server it’s usually trivial to have it run as a dedicated user, with just enough permissions to do its job.

It’s just good practice, even though the risks might be low why risk it at all?

Like it or not, ads are still the most popular way to pay for online content. I despise ads and I hope some kind of micro-payment solution catches on and offers an alternative, but until then there needs to be a way to reward people for their work, so ads and full-on subscriptions it is.

Yeah but if the EULA is different from one country to another, they’d want me to see the French version and not the US one.

Wouldn’t work for me: I’m French and I live in France, but all my devices are set to en_US.

OK so this is most likely by design, impressive.

Does the timer “jump” to the correct time after you dismiss the window ? It’s also possible that they didn’t bother testing the app when logged out, and that the popup blocks the UI thread while it’s displayed. In short it could be bad coding and QA instead of intentional enshittification.
