Why can I never find Yggdrasil on these? I remember compiling Linux kernels in this in the early to mid 90s.
Wow … thanks!!!
As one of the geeks who built these phone systems back in the '90s, it’s one of my biggest regrets that I didn’t do this.
Yes, 130,000 emails is a totally normal number of emails to keep in your inbox. It’s clearly my company’s fault that your iPhone can’t manage to open it.
I have 17k emails and no issue opening my email app…is this a common problem on iPhone?
Not that i know of, i certainly don’t have that many, but 2k maybe and it works just fine? Is the app just junk….?
In my experience, any time someone mentions how many decades of experience they have in IT, it means they either:
-
Think that clicking the Facebook button on their desktop and finding their Downloads folder qualifies as experience in IT
-
Have decades of actual IT experience, but think everything still works like they did in the 90s. Yeah, maybe you were an IT expert at one point, but you never bothered to keep your skills fresh, you geezer.
In either case, they think they know better than the lowly flunkie trying to help them, and trying to get them to actually listen to you and “please sir just upload debug logs, I beg you, no those aren’t debug logs, I gave you the instructions to generate debug logs three times already, maybe things will be different after the fourth time, there’s a literal KB article with step by step instructions to sync your photo library, no I won’t call you to handhold you through this, I’d literally just be reading the steps in the article” is pure suffering.
