Great game. Super fun playing it with ghosting on the original GB back in the day.

The scary part is they’re actually getting damned good at it. IT support at my company is almost solely run out of India. If I put a ticket in and set it to high priority they’ll have it fixed in under an hour. A lot of times it’s 5 minutes. They don’t hide their true names (which I respect) and communication is fantastic. They need to reach out to me a Teams chat is initiated. If I’m not available they try calling. Not sure who they’re paying but they’re good.

American support is slower and less engaged overall. We’re definitely getting out paced.

Eero Secure does a pretty decent job by itself but addresses can be blacklisted as well (hi Roku). If I had more money, time, and could figure out my double NAT, I’d probably switch from Secure to a Firewalla device, probably a Purple. Overall the eero’s have been a great, I don’t have to think about it, mesh system. Of course you have to be okay with Amazon owning them.

Some command line shenanigans if I remember. Not sure that still works on newer patches.

This won’t be popular but I haven’t had a stability problem on my home Windows 11 pro (server) machine. I disabled online login during first boot setup so maybe that’s why … my network handles telemetry shenanigans so I’m not worried about that. Never bothered to put a Linux on it, which was the plan, since it’s not failed once, it’s been a few years since it was spooled up. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Absolutely nailed it.

The article is straight up BS. You can still run unsigned apps. The approval is just in a different place now.

And honestly it’s better than Twitter ever was, for the users at least.

Not when you need real time chats, no.

Not when you’re expected to use it as a texting/messenger device for work. I have so many threads and DMs through it that I truly need to make it more organized. I’m not alone.

I think when I said stuff you weren’t thinking of threads and chats but that’s what I meant. Apologies.

Now you tell me! Lol.

It’s always been trash …

The big chains got worse since there is basically a cheese monopoly in the US and its products have gotten cheaper to produce and worse quality. The expensive pizza places are still great because they typically don’t source their cheese from them. Can’t remember where I read that.

Ex. Pizza Hit in the 80s was incredible pizza. It’s meh now.

That’s why they’re so pervasive, they work on the majority of people (that’s not us).

You have to share your email address with Konami for marketing purposes but they do disclose this in an obvious way.

I’m not the only one that doesn’t like Slack! Teams isn’t great but I do prefer it. Sadly.

It’s being used because they’re already paying for MS Enterprise.

I would give almost anything to just be able to rename a Sharepoint folder as an alias for myself. I have so many Documents - x folders that all look the same but are vastly different. Arg!!

But only 15. Yeah, I hit that limit regularly. I just want to put things in folders. That would be a major improvement.

I must be the only one who prefers Teams over Slack. I just don’t like its design. Nothing makes sense to me in how it operates. But then again, Trams runs fine for me. No slow downs or deleting things that others have mentioned.
