Fucking best day in my life.
I won an essential device that will be my partner in digital art for the next 10 years.

I don't even know anymore if the people I talk to are jAsE's or real.

At this point devRant is 20% memes, 10% content and 70% jAsE accounts.

Alice's fun discoveries to play around with #6:
If you tap a ++ button and directly after it before it actually gets ++'d, you tap on another ++able element (doesn't have to be the ++ button), that will be the one to get ++'d instead.

Some people are so incompetent in anything tech related, recently I got multiple mails from someone with lots of family pictures for someone else. And the second try after they noticed the actual person didn't receive them, also arrived on my end. I then told them nicely that I am probably not supposed to get them and they still got the wrong email address.

Why can't people not properly check where they are trying to send their stuff to and then not even at least reply with a short "thanks" or anything after spamming my inbox with pictures of their children and other family members. It would have been nice to know they got my mail and acted on it, so I don't have to fear another huge pack of pictures of a family I don't know next time they feel like it.

If your toaster dies while you're having a bath, you are most likely doing the same.

So the next step to destroying the internet is clear name-only posting and registrations with full name, address and official IDs.

Welcome to the next crap ideas coming from european countries, currently and for real in work.

It's even worse now, lol

Now only x10 and I got my old ++ count back.
Totally a goal I follow.
Anyways, thanks.

Remember kids, if your "dirty little hack you are ashamed of" that "is not a solution" currently is the only possible way of doing what it does, it is in fact THE solution.

I wonder what's wrong, lol. Since, I think, 2 Chrome updates, my Twitter bookmark (I even deleted it and created a completely new one) keeps changing its icon to the icon of whatever website gets visited in the same tab directly after an opened Twitter site.

*Has automatic updates completely disabled, even double checks if it is*

Google Play: "Updating 23 apps..."

*starts creative cloud application to turn all settings off*

Adobe: *Starts 20 processes of different "hidden" applications that are supposed to run forever until you close them yourself*

Honestly, who are those weird people who just scrolled through a whole discussion of people who obviously give a shit, just to ask "Honestly, who gives a shit?"?

She forgets everything I tell her instantly, asks me to make notifications on her phone vanish all the time and constantly asks me what to do when it's literally written in a short sentence, described for very stupid users right on the screen.

Also she tends to freak out instantly when I tell her that she tapped on something that turned feature X on.

Recently, she managed to download Pinterest, register an account there, choose her interest categories, get 30 mails and notifications and tell me she never even heard about Pinterest.

I hate my daily life.

TV-Series:
1 - "We know it was you who hacked into the hospital's system."
2 - "But I wouldn't even know how to do this."
1 - "Really? Because your record says you got 2 years in computer science!"

*Everyone in the room knows instantly it had to be him, case closed*

My reaction: "...what?"

Prepare for the return of the joker. Again.

Not a dev rant, but fml.

My evil self from 2 days before my surgery tricked my current self into destroying a drawing she was working on.

Apparently I added a bunch of HB leads to my mechanical pencil before I went to surgery and forgot exactly one(!) 2B lead in there.

When I was working on a drawing of glasses that I actually liked because it started out pretty well, my lead got near its end. So I disposed the little rest of it and pushed the next lead out. I didn't directly notice that it wasn't an HB lead. So right when I wanted to darken some stuff and strengthen some lines, I applied the pressure I needed for an HB lead to be as dark as I wanted cause I was too lazy to grab my other pencil with softer leads.

I destroyed everything by adding lines and an area with too much pressure for using a 2B lead. Now my drawing is a smudgy hell of lines with a part that I tried to erase but wasn't possible to get erased properly.

Fuck.

My past self played russian roulette with pencil leads with me and just shot my drawing.

This bitch. I hate her. Stupid whore.

Tried to rescue it, made things worse. Will have to do another attempt. This time I took everything out and refilled it with a bunch of HB leads.

If I at least knew it was a 2B lead and noticed earlier that something was going wrong, I could have either switched it out or changed my pencil handling according to softness.

Everyone: "PhotoShop is so expensive... Adobe is crazy... I can't even... Lets just pirate it..."

Adobe: "I think we should double our subscription prices."

*shadow in window*

Everyone on YouTube: "This is in fact a psychopathic (used as a bad word) cult member possed by a demon, dead since a dark event in that house that happened in september 1854 on a dark day with a temperature of 9°C... Or just some random guy who visited that place, too. But come on. That's unrealistic."

That's the exact level of intelligence I feel like most clients show when they believe everything some other "expert" tells them just to make some money.

Quick reminder that the "Forced Update" system app on Amazon Android devices tells us about Amazon's secret connection to satan.

Why is it that everytime I watch a modern Marvel or DC series (Netflix & Co, you know, the "new" ones), except for The Flash and Supergirl, I always dislike the series after watching 2 - 3 episodes and stop it, but come back after a couple of weeks and try again, starting from episode 1, just to like the series and watch it completely?

Semicolons vs Spaces

Let the fight begin!

I just accidentally liked a video I dislike on YouTube.

Great. Now I will have stuff like this on my main page for an eternity.

I cursed myself.

How many hardware problems do you need to change a programmer?

One! It's a light bu... eh... the client makes you responsible for anything anyways.

So Amazon did it.
They blocked the app launcherhijack.
This is ridiculous, especially since it's a simple package name block.

You guys are complaining about google stuff and issues on Android devices? Try owning an Amazon Android device.

Man. Now I have to wait until I got out of bed and everything to install Android Studio again and change the package name.

We should do something about the downvote issue, lol.

Everytime someone writes crap and gets downvoted by others and I am somehow involved in the conversation, they automatically accuse me of aggressively downvoting them for whatever reason.

As if that was ever right in any of those cases (which already should at least give long time users a clue that it's most likely not me).

At least think about the possibility that someone else could possibly dislike what you wrote. I know I am one of the few who openly just write straight up that they dislike it, but come on. I am not sitting here all day an downvote every new comment of someone. There are more people here than you and me.

The weird thing with downvoted comments randomly(?) getting hidden completely didn't really help with that. It only makes people even more angry at losing their virtual dick length, aka ++.

Post about women: *exists*
Certain people on devRant: "oh fuck me, it's scientifically proven that women are worse at {insertAnythingTheThreadIsAbout} than men, so it's only natural they {insertProblem} and {insertProblem2}! Also society forgot that men are also good {somethingAboutMenBeingAsGoodAsWomenAtItOrEvenBetterInThePostersOpinion} and get fucked over by society at every possible point in their life! Also look at the western world where men have to pay for everything, even work TWO jobs!!! And aren't even allowed to see their children *by DEFAULT*"

Oh boi. Just shut the fuck up please. Half of what you people say in comments like these have nothing to do with the topic at all, although your brain is apparently so trained at hating women, that you think it does for every sentence about women. Yes, we know, you can make cereals as well a women. You know, mentioning women in a context doesn't automatically mean "haha, lolz, men are so bad at it, we should kill them all off and only have women do everything they tried to do, these losers!".

Also interesting, how you almost always, failproven, fall back to this scenario of having to pay for children you apparently aren't allowed to see (which fucking doesn't work like this. If you weren't a complete asshole to your kids and proven you shouldn't be near them, decided by court, you have a right to see them, in most countries of the world, if not almost all.)

God, fuck man. I am so sick of it. Everytime someone posts ANYTHING about women it drifts to this bullshit. Stop.

Hey guys, I'm new here! Plz help me with some ++!
