OMG I had forgotten the prayer chains from southwhatever missionaries 🤣 🤣 🤣

“Your ability to fold a burrito is too suspicious”

Alas not 😢

Carrier pigeons. At least you get a bird to pet when receiving spam.

Right?! I don’t know how people don’t realize it. It must be academia and mainstream media trying to bury the truth

For me the worst was the slideshow fad… So many people were making some and constantly sending them to ALL their contacts and forwarding those of other people making them and you kept receiving some of people who knew someone who knew someone you knew because of the forwarding… Since the last step came from people you knew, you couldn’t just block them, and if you didn’t answer every once in a while it was terribly rude… Also those butt ugly sparkling greeting cards 😬

Now spam is so common that it’s a perfect excuse, I just warn people that I don’t read email so don’t bother sending them 😂

But I agree on principle, the annoyances used to come from people who were over-enthusiastic over new technology like email, photo editing and such, and wanted to share it with everyone (willing or no). Or people who were having fun with chain emails (I might possibly have started a few on my school local network so I do understand… but to be fair no one used that network and its email system for anything else but email chains 😂 ). Now it’s all automated slop.

Of course not it’s a cylinder, it has some curve and that’s why people are fooled into believing it’s a sphere

True 😅

Fool, it’s not “your” computer, it’s Microsoft’s. You shall use it the way they deem best for you.

Well, at least it’s not ChromeOS. Yet.

I don’t even know what to say. How can you make jokes when reality already is making them for you? Have we finally entered The Onion Timeline?

I need this on my tombstone 😭

“I just want to use rsync and inotify to automatically sync my data to my NAS so I never again have to forget backing up before doing something stupid. I hate coding and I’m terrible at it but it’ll be fine! It’s 2 commands, HOW HARD COULD IT BE? I’m sure 10 lines of bash can do it.”

Aaaaaand there went my whole weekend 💀 💀 💀

AGAIN

Why do I keep doing this to myself? 😭

(But it works! Kinda. Well it’s a matter of perspective, who can say what objectively defines the concept of “working”? It does SOMETHING. So technically it does works. CQFD)

I don’t think the idea itself is awful, but everyone is so fed up with AI bullshit that any attempt to integrate even an iota of it will be received very poorly, so I’m not sure it’s worth it.

I know you’re supposed to say size doesn’t matter and I don’t want to be mean, but really… 4GB DDR3 RAM? 🤣 🤣 🤣

How do YOU know the sun is spherical? You never saw it from the side either

That because since Brexit the economy crumbled and wages in the UK are now paid in turnips, which is why you do need to measure by weight

I have a dozen email accounts, that way all the emails I don’t read (which is ALL OF THEM) are neatly separated in different inboxes.
