I used to like reading the medium - long stories on the malicious complience subreddit. !maliciouscompliance@lemmy.world just never really took off here.

What the hell are they all shooting at? And look look at this asshole... He's not even pretending to be aiming:

My company (small, < 50 people) basically did an informal survey and then CEO said that working from home is here to stay, with the option to work in the office whenever we want (and some do).

I guess that because the interior isn't a vacuum, the slow-moving air molecules were able to dissipate heat.

Yeah, I intended the question to come across as kind of a joke. My uncle doesn't really spend time online, but he needed a computer to look for jobs. He is living in my basement though, so I do have some concern about what comes over our network. But I wasn't planning to actually do anything beyond my typical pc setup.

I personally like seeing games I never heard of before. The more obscure the better.

My thinking is that as long as I'm given the choice, I'd rather be scammed out of $20 than fail to help someone who legitimately needs it.

And thus also resulting in the Dynasty Warriors video games, which is arguably more important.

My late void used to sleep on my bed and snore. Often the sound would get picked up on my laptop's microphone and coworkers in meetings would ask what that sound was.

Still pretty impressive for an owl.

I think the air force would be authorized to hypothetically shoot your dumb ass out of the sky.

 

I think I'd like to go bigger with it next year.

 

I enjoy writing software, but...

I'm sick of making yet another fucking CRM.

I'm sick of trying to keep data synced between seven different third-party services.

I'm sick of trying to pull everything in the database into a single fucking dashboard.

I'm sick of trying to stay within a budget that's based on some wild-ass guesstimates made by someone who quit over a year ago.

I'm sick of creating things that will only ever be seen by a couple people in some random companies, and will be enjoyed by nobody.

 

I'm wondering if anyone here has gone through this process, and what the experience was like. (I'm not asking for help with any particular error or anything like that. At least not yet).

I got put in charge of maintaining an old codebase that includes Xamarin projects for android and ios and we seem to have run into a situation where we need to update the framework not just for security, but to keep the mobile app fully functional as Apple and Google update their APIs.

I did see that there was a button in Visual Studio to automatically upgrade the project, but apparently "upgrade" means "break fuckin' everything" so I'm guessing I'll need to take a more manual approcach and also blow a bunch of hours on finding replacements for all the dependencies that required Xamarin and are no longer maintained.

My biggest problem is that I haven't even heard of Xamarin before this thing got dropped in my lap so I have some confusion about how it's supposed to work on top of my normal baseline amount of confusion.

 

Rescued her from a water bowl.

 

Bonus! I also shot some video of these guys: https://spectra.video/w/mSKQg3rYoiH7KeQoAMjtmF

 

This is at least the second email I got asking to "collaborate" on Google Play. Protect your accounts, folks.

My favorite part is how he addresses it to himself.

 
 

Well, actually my dog found it, but I got a short video.
