I’ve called companies that disconnect the call or “in order to connect you to the right agent, please tell us what you’re calling about,” them inevitably get it wing enough times to make you sit through a menu of about ten choices that are not correct and disconnect after three rounds of this nonsense.

"I’m sorry you’re frustrated, perhaps it’s time to start a new topic.’

“I’m not going to respond to that.”

"I only use my powers for good!”

Well it worked with me, because I paid it.

I chuckled. I think there is deep seated shame of being gay, or soft, in toxic masculinity (and toxic femininity), that people probably go to extremes to hide it. Like being a player, spousal “discipline,” etc. and it gets passed down from generation to generation. But that’s a whole other topic.

MAC addresses serious have to be spoofed.

There are two people using resources. Should’ve broadened my set, let me revise that now: greed and control issues. Thanks for the catch.

Why can’t we discuss both if both apply?

I had to turn it on, but that was a 6s. Currently running android without much storage and I’m loathe to back up to cloud, unless it’s business that doesn’t require extra privacy, but may needed as a reference, later.

Why? My laptop has more storage than my phone. Sometimes I need to save a conversation for future reference, and want photos on my laptop where I have more storage, not on my phone.

Because it deleted from the cloud, the synced message is already on the device. Once there’s a digital copy, it’s like a carbon physical copy. Just because you shred the white and yellow copy doesn’t mean you’ve shredded the yellow copy in the file cabinet you forgot about.

It’s probably mostly due to not wanting to pay spousal support and control issues.

You wouldn’t believe how many people think like that, unless it’s the woman caught out.

Interesting note in this mint sauce recipe.

That’s … TFW words aren’t enough and too much, at once.

It wasn’t even Bill’s software iirc.

That’s all week and good for the minority of jobs that didn’t cling to it like a codependent partner.

It would take ripping apart and rewriting hundreds of thousands of lines of source code, if not millions. Not just bloat from one off bright ideas, that led to the next bright ideas, but the deliberate obsfucation to protect proprietary code, in more instances than I can imagine. I’m not a programmer, so I could be wrong, obviously, but from my admittedly limited perspective, they’d be better off writing a whole new OS without all the built-in garbage nobody wants.

100% agree. I follow a few content creators who include a Cash App or Paypal information in the description box. They don’t demand cash** because they do it for the love of what they do, and don’t demand subscriptions or anything else. If I have an extra dollar, I send it. I’m guessing this either isn’t their only revenue stream or do well enough that it is. If everyone who is appreciative would do a dollar or few donations, maybe it is a livble wage, with or without youtube’s payment?

Wake up, neo…
