@spongessuck i think the mess might have smth to do with clients closing down..

@Root is higher/top mgmt equally malignant?

I DO hope there was some written comms and you can screenshot-reply with CC wider audience stroking their incopetence in front of their mgmt :) perhaps even C level, hinting this is the n-th time they have severe issues that have been warned about way in advance by tech personnel and ignored by direct mgmt.

Ooohh that would feel gooood :)))

you don't have to be submissive. You can bite too

Took me a while... 😁

@jestdotty I think this is where 'AI' would be really useful [writing/summarizing them]

> I'm going crazy, aren't I

Always have been

I used to do that for ServiceNow years ago. Just for fun, not bcz it was poorly written. I had the coolest hackerish SN theme in the department [~1k heads] 😁

ps. I used a Chrome extension Stylish

I guess the same could be done with crappy css in www too. I come across them every now and then, but I'm lucky enough to not have to visit them daily :)

I know a guy with lots of contacts and another who has a handful of such guys within his reach.

@kiki I mean, if you refer to ubuntu 2024, which release would that be? Spring or autumn? How would you refer the other one then? "2024-the-other-one"?

Ubuntu makes 2 releases per year: 04 and 10. The first part is year, followed by a dot, followed by 04 [spring] or 10 [autumn]. I see nothing wrong with this versioning.

When will you finally get to the point where you say "fuck it, this life isn't for me"?

Because.. maybe it isn't :)

I'm not saying "uninstall life". What I'm saying, try a different version for it. Maybe your hardware is not well compatible with the version of "Life" you're trying to run. Try mods, different releases. After all, your hardware will only last this long.

Try to find what's fun for you. Cling to it. Explore it. Enjoy it. Hint: most likely it's not your job :)

@ScriptCoded @Grumm

Self-tags appear as marked-as-read notifications in notifs.

The bot only acts on unread notifs ;)

Why should it? It has a personal minon (you) to clean up after it.

@retoor yeah, well.. when this responsibility is to bots and teenagers/kids, there just isn't much of a point :)

@retoor As for @IntrusionCM, I miss him. He was one of the smart ones. Perhaps that's why he left. He probably ran out of patience to deal with all this teenage attention seeking.

@retoor I start to feel here like an old person. When all the people you knew and talked to, had fun with back in the day, are disappearing quietly one after another. And are replaced by the new generations and their immaturity.

Makes one thing when is it going to be my last day here... Could it be today?

@red @-red

@retoor looks nice, but I find that 'x timeunits ago' format rather annoying, esp when it's everywhere...

I prefer bash's built-ins (taken from my ~/.bashrc):

```

export HISTTIMEFORMAT="%F %T "

export IGNOREEOF=2

export PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "↑$(date +%H:%M:%S) [${PIPESTATUS[@]}]\n"'

```

Still working on the 'duration' part

@bazmd spam posts

Been there more times than I can remember.

If you've made up your mind already, then what's the rush? Stay around for a while longer, see how much worse it's gonna get over a week or a month. You don't have to care for it, just stay here for entertainment.

You can nick yourself any time, there's no need to hurry... But when you do, you won't see what happens next. That's the unfortunate part of the deal... So stay aroud just for shits and giggles. Sit back, relax and watch what happens next :)

this attitude kept me going through ice and fire, when all I wanted was to give up and sink right where I stood. And it still is :)

Word

Depends on perspective though :)

@retoor yes, BY is Belarus.

Idk why, how and other details.

What concerns me the most, how did they found out who they are going to, and the personal phone number of the host to be in EU.

The only thought crossing my mind is... Constant telecom surveilance. Like you read in book and see in movies about ssrs and ss occupations

@retoor yes, really. A while back an acquaintant of mine in LT was expecting a guest from BY. Hours before that guest even reached the BY border, the host received a phone call from the BY goverment with questions about the guest to be and his purpose of visit and further plans.

A wrong answer could have meant a big fat NO at the border and a cancelled visit. Or worse.

This is a true story from my close circles.

@Tounai canada? Dude, look at the other direction. Start with belorussia and go deeper to the east. Don't have to go far to be tracked down and questioned about your past, present and future, hearing details about your life you've long forgotten. And yes, your relatives back in EU WILL be receiving weird calls

@retoor Yes. According to RFC and a few BNFs I found online, the following are all valid JSONs:

true

false

null

[]

{}

17

"hello"

{"hello":"world"}

[false]

@retoor I think chatgpt is outdated

@Demolishun good point, thx. The object key restriction still stands, I think

@retoor suppose you're ingesting an array. The first item is a string, the second one - an object. In the same array. I think spec doesn't allow that, ie a corrupted json

an object can only have different keys. If you're parsing an object which has two 'name' keys - it's an invalid json, and you won't catch it w/o prereading it all for validation.

> What can be built

a car shredder. In every parking lot. If you leave your car for longer than 1 hour -- it's automatically shredded.
