I don’t think the person who turned him in will still work there, assuming they got the reward.

How do I get rid of this hangover?

Yeah, the VPN thing is so basic. Why does it bother to tell me that the VPN’s dropped after I wake my laptop up, just reconnect.

In the unlikely event I had to create a porn site account even the NSA wouldn’t be able to link it back to me.

Office is one of the most recognisable brands in the world. Why have they jammed it into a brand which is already toxic?

Disney Plus, VPN, OneDrive, NextCloud (to eventually replace OneDrive). I use Spotify and Amazon Prime through a family account.

I know this is a meme but how often are people buying RAM that they find this relatable? I upgraded my PC to 32gb over a year ago, I sn’t that plenty for now?

In the UK women can be called birds but it’s considered a bit tasteless nowadays.

I’m sick of the sight of that stupid grey all the pubs keep using.

Milk and cookies seem bizarre, there’s nothing Christmassy about that. You need to put your foot down there.

We’re also UK and we just left out a mince pie, a chocolate biscuit that my daughter wanted to give him, a carrot, and some whisky which Santa asked for when we went to see him. We let our daughter pour the whisky and it was quite a generous serving. My wife said “That’s quite a lot, he’s going to be tipsy” and my daughter said “It’s only half a glass mummy”. I just poured it back into the bottle.

I don’t think this is big news.

Over the past year I’ve gradually switched from Gnome to Plasma but it’s so fucking clunky I do miss Gnome. I feel like it’s in the right place but it just needs rebuilding from the ground up in the modern world.

I wish I had a father.

The original reasoning for having all those directories was because some nerds in a university/lab kept running out of HD space and had to keep changing the filing system to spread everything out between an increasing number of drives.

They should make it a law to require adequate parental controls to exist on a phone in a way that parents can use them, then teach the parents how to use them. If your kid goes and starts viewing porn then it’s your own fault.

People who have sun sneezes tend to sneeze a bunch of times at once. Sun sneezes are genetic.

Apps were still kinda new at the time and social media was shit hot. iPhones were still premium products and most people didn’t have one.

I think a lot of people don’t realise that when the iPhone first came out it didn’t have apps. They eventually released an upgrade so that you could pin webpages to the homepage. I remember Apple arguing that web stuff was so good now you didn’t need apps.

From what I recall around that time the Kin never really generated that much interest. It wasn’t being aimed as a product to replace the iPhone and was targeted at the kind of people who nowadays would sit on their phone and scroll TikTok. There was a lot of change in those days; social media was still pretty new, useful internet in your phone was pretty new (it’d been around for years but it wasn’t so expensive to this point nobody had used it, iPhone made constant internet connections a thing) touch screens were still new and sexy, and more I forget about. The idea that your phone was this little mobile computer that you carried around wasn’t really there yet and they were still mostly for communicating.
