Lemmington Bunnie

I agree with your terminology - updating is for often small incremental software patches.

Upgrade would be a complete program overhaul, or more commonly in my use of it, a change to a newer, better physical product.

My hands are also tiny and smol, and I’m also clumsy, but I have no issues with my S23 Ultra. 🤷🏼‍♀️

That completely stopped working for me a while ago, but Samsung’s Reminders app was able to do it well.

I started using it instead, and the other day, uninstalled the Google Assistant app - the only time I was opening it was by accident, when I’d drift off to sleep holding my phone, and he rudely awoken by the noise it made.

I gave up on it entirely probably a year or so ago, as I found if anything it was getting worse.

I’m only using Chrome for work because the profile switching & syncing is so much smoother and our company is split into two primary brands - my brain handles it better with an individual browser profile for each.

We’re consolidating everything into one next year, meaning I can ditch the second browser!

I’ve tried setting up a second profile but it was just too much effort to get it working and bring everything across from both, then do the same on my laptop for travel, so I’ll just wait for now.

The creator is an awful person and likely to be a future family annihilator. He is truly terrifying.

Good ol’ Spiderface Spez.

It’s also helped me find the names of several books and films that have been rattling around in my mind, some for decades, which actually made me very happy because not remembering that sort of thing drives me a little mad.

I’m stuck on two books that it can’t work out - both absolute trash pulp fiction, one that I stopped reading because it was so terrible and the other that was so bad but I actually wouldn’t mind reading again.

Oh well, can’t have it all.

USB & me: third times the charm!

I’m not disagreeing with your point, but it’s funny; if a result is “sponsored”, my first thought is “what is wrong with it? Is it crap?”.

I’ve been marking these advisor emails as spam in our ticketing software for ages, they set off all my alarm bells and raise all the red flags!

Yes, never sure why people had such an issue with the term.

Example, artificial hair is a broad term, and can span from looking like a straw broom to indistinguishable from real hair, and everything in between.

Lucy Barker from the musical Sweeney Todd.

My old manager once drew on my screen with his pen when pointing out something.

He would also leave his coffee cups on my desk including a nasty ring.

I was so glad when he left, and am even more glad to work from home where people can’t draw on my damn monitor.

I love how people always argue this point, “oh it sucks and can’t replace x”. Computer animation sucked once as well, but look at what can be done with it now.

AI sucks in its current state. It will evolve and improve, and put poor little uneducated admin people like myself completely out of work. I’m learning what I can, but I’m not very bright, and neither is my future!

There are likely so many ways to circumvent these things; it’s so good of these two Lemmings to provide further details so we know how to avoid this in the future!

I miss those features so much - I was also one who had the Googlillusion shattered by the discontinuation of Inbox.

Me waiting for Inbox features to be incorporated into Gmail:

It’s two words, but we call them “bloody tourists” in Australia.

We called ourselves that when on our recent outback adventure.

We wanted them to take the boring jobs so we could devote our time to art and leisure, but instead they’re creating art and we’re still stuck in the boring jobs with no time or money for leisure. 😭

This is so amusing to me, because I had no idea who this Linus was - I was only somewhat familiar with Linus Torvald of Linux fame. I looked up last night just to check that the old Linux nerd wasn’t running around stealing water coolers and such.

Extra funny to see a comment the next morning that this Linus knows zero about Linux.
