Incidents like this are a perfect excuse for the bean counters and marketing experts to chime in and recommend that the firmware be updated specifically to block third party ink or toner.

There’s no downside, the world is already trash talking your company, even if you didn’t do anything wrong, but while it’s happening, you get to sell a shitload more ink and toner.

Now you can consider yourself an “Award Winning Author”.

For the lack multiple upvotes, here’s a “silver” coin.

Might have to consider some Oscar generic awards ceremony worthy credits before long, mind you, finding the name of the obstetrician who birthed me is going to be a challenge.

I also noticed a distinct lack of family genealogy in your signature, if it wasn’t for our primordial ooze ancestors, neither of us would be here today.

This is going to require “some” research.

Hmm … I wonder if embedded YouTube iframes work … purely for bandwidth testing purposes of course.

I just discovered another missing attribute from my signature:

Hi mom!

So … adding a pronoun to every single email on the planet kills one person?

Can we nominate that person … there’s a few that come to mind.

On a more serious note, the article is crapping on about pronouns and land acknowledgements as if they’re what’s killing people.

Here’s a thought, what about AI, or what about the biggest carbon emitting companies, 57 account for 80% of emissions?

This article is nothing to do with killing people, it’s everything to do with killing pronouns and eliminating land acknowledgements.

Look for any common condition using any search engine and discover just how misinformed the global population really is.

I am an ICT professional with over 40 years experience and in my own field it’s often obvious how a technical response sounds right but is in reality absolute bollocks.

I know from lived medical experience that the same is true for medicine. However, being outside my own field it’s much harder to detect, even with quotes and citations.

Wow.

I’ve been processing a couple of billion rows of data on my machine, the fans didn’t even come on. WTF are they teaching “experts” these days, or has Elmo only hired people who claim that they can “wrangle data” and say “yes” ?

Ooh … there’s going to be a lot of fun had with this… I wonder if you can use blink tags and animated gifs … strictly for educational purposes … I’ll be right back …

If I wanted my computer to make a sound, I’d wet my finger and rub it on the screen.

Or an apprentice Locksmith cat.

You can save a post, but I’ve not seen the ability to subscribe to a post.

If you’re renting, take photos and make sure it’s in your property report. You’ll likely get charged for the “damage” if you don’t.

Also, do a walk-through with video when you move in, take it slow and cover every surface. It’s amazing what you can prove was already there.

I’m not sure how else to interpret the wording as posted. I’d be interested to read your “charitable” interpretation of what OP wrote.

OP was looking to identify “sluts” and specified that they were identified by: “short dress, low cut vibe”.

It’s hard to interpret that as anything other than female, or identifying as female. I’m sure that there are men also wearing such outfits, but I’m not sure if they would be found at a wedding, but I don’t go to weddings that OP is describing.

OP went on to describe “the slut” as “drunk”.

So now we have a drunk female, being identified by OP as a slut.

Being drunk means that you are not able to provide legal consent, so now we’re at my response.

Happy to learn where I missed something.

So in your world sluts are by definition female and unable to provide consent?

Shame on you!

You’ve been on the Fediverse less than a day and THAT’S your contribution to the global discourse?

Obviously a Starr!

It is on my MacBook Air. It sits closed on my desk with an external display, plugged in 24/7 and sits at 80%, every now and then it charges to 100%, or discharges back to 80%.

It was like that when I bought it in July last year. Seems to be a current MacOS feature.
