Someone has never had to deal with DHL.
You’d think the Germans would be fantastic at logistics, but in this case, you’d be very wrong.

I’m thinking someone went nuts with the Photoshop. It’s what Elon Musk thinks he looks like, and I don’t think AI would be able to get that look just the way Elon wants it.
Super famous singer “offers” to be featured on your track
“Sure! I had my lawyer write up a contract; let me send it to your people and we can go from there.”
If they’re cool, they’ll negotiate and sign a contract. “Just trust me, bro!” is never an acceptable answer. Protect yourself; have a contract before collaborating with anyone.
Thing is, all the other major manufacturers are just as bad or worse.
As a PC technician, HP still somehow has the best service and support, which speaks volumes about how bad everyone else is. Dell’s support tools are a generation behind HP’s, and Lenovo’s build quality is atrocious. Not to mention Lenovo’s technician support is so badly fragmented and poorly run, they default to having the customer send the device in for repair and avoid sending an on-site technician just so they can avoid dealing with technician support. Speaking from personal experience, getting to the right person when I have a problem or need to order additional parts is like pulling teeth, and even if I manage to reach someone, they’re usually equal parts incompetent and unhelpful.
And Apple doesn’t even want to service their stuff.
These days, you have to pick your poison.
I’ve been getting a lot of mileage from this.
TikTok isn’t doing anything that any other major social media company isn’t also doing. The only difference being that TikTok is owned by a Chinese company, and not a US one.
Just banning one app does little to resolve the overall privacy and information nightmare that social media is.
old.reddit is probably going to be on the chopping block, too. I only go for niche communities these days, but I’m gone for good once old.reddit is gone.
I imagine this is only for consumer-grade printers. HP’s business-class devices are usually purchased under a contract.

I already assumed I’m being monitored on my work devices, and write my emails and chats like they’re going to be used in a deposition.
If I’m shit-talking someone, it’s in person or on my personal device.
Man, I just think about the opening for “Would?” by Alice in Chains. People who underappreciate the bass haven’t heard that song.
Honestly, it’ll probably wind up becoming an American version of The Troubles. Republicans are cowards, and I doubt there are very many who are truly willing to fight and die for their cause. However, there are plenty of people willing to commit terrorist bombings and acts of sabotage if they think they can get away with it, and the US is huge. There are still plenty of places to hide if that’s the case.
And if Trump wins reelection, I can’t imagine many blue states putting up with it, and the same thing will happen from the opposite direction.
I just hope and pray that when Gabe Newell decides to retire, he hands the reins for Valve off to someone like-minded.
A huge part of the reason PC gamers have it so good is because GabeN refuses to sell Valve (and by extension, Steam) and also wants to deliver the best product possible. He’s content with merely making lots of money, instead of trying to squeeze every last cent out of Steam at the storefronts expense.
If you sit in a hotel lobby long enough, most properties will eventually kick you out. You can usually get away with it during the day, but you’ll start to stick out more the later in the day it gets. At night, the night auditor probably won’t even let you in the front door.
Pretend like you belong there if you do need to hang out in a lobby for a while, and don’t make a mess.

Honestly, I don’t know what Jack Dorsey is waiting for. The instant Bluesky leaves its closed beta, basically everyone on Twitter is gonna jump ship, and Twitter’s transformation into Truth Social 2.0 will be complete.
The iron has been hot for a long while. What’s he waiting for?
They serve it that hot so that it’s less obvious when the coffee isn’t fresh. That way, you can save money by making fewer batches, and the people who are served old coffee won’t realize it until long after they left the drive-thru.
190 degrees Fahrenheit. They served it that hot to make it less obvious that they (usually) weren’t selling fresh coffee.
They had a slush fund set up specifically to pay out settlements for coffee burns.
They knew it was a problem, but decided it would be cheaper to pay off burn victims than to serve their coffee at a safe temperature.
In my experience, people who make a big deal out of their philanthropy are typically doing it to compensate for some other moral deficiency.
What really started to bother me was when he started to make a game out of his giveaways, like “Last person to stop touching the Lamborghini gets to keep it!” and things like that. It just feels wrong, and I can’t quite explain why.
I hope I’m wrong, and so far there is no evidence he’s a secret dickhead, but something about him seems off.
An entire fandom has been pronouncing “Evangelion” wrong for the past quarter-century.
It’s supposed to be pronounced with a hard G, like hair gel.
