Most of the times it is realized only after the fact, that it is never worth your while to try going the extra mile to patch things with anyone. They'll slack off just as much. Best to let their grip slip off.

So I bought my wife an iPhone 8 around 3 months ago. She just asked me for my headphones, I explained that the 8 doesn’t have a headphone jack.

She didn’t believe me, looked at every edge on her phone then exclaimed “well that’s fucking stupid! I wouldn’t have got one if I’d known!”

This made my laugh more than it probably should have.

...she has now stolen my Bluetooth earbuds.

I am glad that I did not turn off my job alerts, the sight of those new job opportunities even if totally unsuitable or demeaning filled my heart with hope and my middle fingers rose at those who sent me away not for my lack of technical abilities

Looks like we're getting this handled about 18 years before it becomes a problem, and after the fix is in place, we're going to be OK for the next 29 billion years. They'll have to handle that when it comes around.

About that workaround though...
Getting the cursor to show the context menu to get the Paste option can be such a major pain in the wrist

Are there no foss alternatives to the 5 year old WordPress client for android? The PWA option becomes unusable when the post goes beyond a few screens and editing anything at the beginning of the post is a nightmare with the cursor constantly shifting and messing up the typing.
I could, as a workaround, compose in my note taking app for the time being.

On similar lines, whenever I'm facing a similar situation where I need to take a stand, I hate the way I hyperventilate. Really messes me up and I curse the entities who cause it.

Looks like #Mycroft called their bluff, and they folded. Hopefully this troll will keep its tail tucked and we'll never hear from them again.

I intend to no more enable video because it was just so disrespectful to make me turn on my video and set my room up. this is so normal to just treat interviewees with less importance.
