  • I’m fairly sure Microsoft is actively trying to screw Firefox. Outlook has always sucked in Firefox, teams is a shit show. When you use a useragent switcher somehow a lot of features seem to work magically in Firefox (which tells me MS is doing this on purpose).

    For Outlook (exchange) I use Thunderbird with a paid plug-in (to make the 2FA stuff work). It’s pretty cheap and totally worth it for me at least.



  • A while ago I came to the conclusion that a Casio G-Shock is the best watch. They don’t have to be expensive, a good one will sync the time multiple times a day, so it’s always accurate. A good one also has small solar panels in the watch face, so the battery will never be empty, and all of them are really build to last.

    From a pure functional perspective I think it’s the best watch ever made. It basically tells you the correct time, always.









  • I don’t know about the windows stuff, haven’t used it in years. But back in the day installing Ubuntu was super easy (just boot from USB stick and install and mostly everything works). But a fresh windows install was a real pain like downloading drivers for all your hardware etc.

    Nowadays it’s pretty easy in both cases I guess.

    I was thinking this as wel, we have an entire generation that is poorer than the previous one, something that you basically never see in history.

    Also it seems that politics has gone utterly insane. At some point I feel left vs right was about money. Should we help the poor and take more from the rich or should we lower taxes etc.

    Now it’s about wokeness, crazy conspiracies, actually supporting Russia (like wtf happened there), etc.



  • No you’re not, the post was editted. The original one said it was all because of AI, the entire reason for the API change was to sell to AI companies.

    Edit, now I’m in doubt, because if you edit a post that is shown somehow right?

    Edit2, just to be clear my point is that Reddit content was never free, before and after the API change. It’s easier to get the content with a decent API, sure. But it was never free, just like the lawsuit the NY Times started.
