These have been so frustrating to report because it’s impossible to explain to the “person” or support bot on the other end that they only show up with a certain referrer. All my reports have been rejected as nothing wrong with the site and not compromised. I gave up.

I am sure all @plex users are anxious to know when the ads will return.

Thanks @Atlassian for forcing your AI into the Confluence "what's happening" feed. It's so useful how pages in English are now summarised in German.

Mine ended in .fidonet.org and you had to wait until zone mail hour to get new email. I got a Hotmail address in 1996 and have had my personal email at my own domain since 2000.

I’m pretty sure they do it so their computer stays unlocked and their status says they’re in a meeting all that time while they go off and do other things. I’ve joined meetings again where this has happened and the person that stayed is never actually “there”.

I do this as I’d rather spend 5 minutes talking with you and explaining something vs spending the next 3 days emailing. If it’s a huddle or teams call I can even share my screen and show you! Afterwards I then usually write up a quick summary and send that for future reference.

Plenty of opportunities for that iced coffee/beverage after the job interview.

I’ve been saying this will happen for years. Introduce a convenient and cheap online format for content and destroy physical media ✅ Slowly jack up the prices over time ✅ Introduce ads ✅ Pre-roll trailers (ads) on premium tiers ✅ Ads across the board. ⏭️

Shall we start a betting pool to see if @Samsung @SamsungAU will publish my review of the last Samsung TV I will ever buy?

“Why don’t people go out anymore?” I’m not an economist but it doesn’t take a genius to figure out it might have something to do with one round of 4 beers at the pub after work on Friday costing $70.

I jokingly said to a friend that the 2TB NVMe that I put in my PS5 is now worth more than the PS5 itself. It was pointed out to me that I need to check the latest PS5 pricing and I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Bought a new Samsung TV and not only does it have ads in the menu, the ad went full screen with sound. This will be the last Samsung device I buy. I’ve had enough. I only use the menu to switch between my BD Player, Apple TV, and console so the Ethernet cable will be unplugged.

8 “thank you for your purchase” emails from Sony downloading some free DLC for a PS5 game (Saints Row). I’m sure these count towards the “digital sales” metrics the sycophants are parading around.

No thanks Sony, I think I’ll go for the physical copy and save myself $35.95. I can wait until tomorrow.

Apparently reading in public is performative now so I’ll read in the office instead.

Picked a good day to come to the office. Sydney is looking fine today.

I am very much enjoying getting an email from PayPal for every fake account presumably setup by a bot using an address at my domain. Time to turn off the catch-all I think.

Nearly leapt out of my chair. That was obnoxiously loud. #ausalert
