It’s always the ones you most suspect

What’s wild is that this skid mark on the underpants of society will probably always somehow have enough of a following to keep himself comfortable. What a world we live in.

Agreed. His fake tears really moved me and my family. Where can we donate?

Sounds less clickbaity, I see why they went with it’s the current title 🙃

It registers the hardware which is permanent and uses the same channels MS uses legitimately, so it cannot be revoked nor detected for that matter. So no, it cannot be “patched.” MS has to live with their ineptitude.

“I’m sorry ma'am but could you please remove your jacket from the seat? It’s obstructing the ads and we have a very clear policy about that”

🙃

Dude thought he was writing material for a roast or what?

“You can do it!” 🙃

Just shuddered at a possible future where someone’s PC locked up with the following notice:

“We have locked your PC because you no longer have sufficient MS funds. One of our technicians will be by shortly to retrieve it. Sit tight, we are downloading its contents. Turning off the internet during this time will lead to strict legal action against you. Thank you for using Microsoft! Be sure to check out the new Surface Ultra and sign up to receive free rewards such a Panago and Ivey Cream!”

Yeah I think 7 was when it was a big blip on the radar. But 100% they had to start laying that foundation beforehand, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it was either always there or started making its way in 98.

95 was relatively groundbreaking and a part of me thinks the PC was so new they hadn’t thought of it yet or if it was even possible given the nature of internet, but you can’t put anything past the marketing guys that would probably love to know what colour your shit is.

Oh please it’s not watching everything you do. It’s just taking screenshots 🙃

You guys trusted MS before this???

“Eviscerated into cinders.” Whut 🤦‍♂️

Sweet. I can now see your profile pic. It broke a bunch of other stuff, but inching forward lol

Thanks 🙏

Yeah Photon bug ☹️

Does the image upgrade fix gifs? Because they just show as a blue ? for me (or is that a bug in Photon?)

emojis cannot be used

Well ima head out 😅

Yeah totally agree. Figma removes a lot of the translation between design and implementation so design and dev are most always on the same page. Ps is an image program. It’s not meant for UI design. At all. Adobe tried to wedge in some UI design frameworks and flows but it’s Adobe. They could fuck up a cup of coffee. And no one uses Adobe XD. It’s too little too late. That’s when at my old employ I pushed for it. When I joined them, most of the designers were using Ai and Ps. Insane to me as Ai is even less suited for UI work. But they were like 20 and right out of school, which shocker, likely had a deal with Adobe so they pushed their software down their students throats.

I dreaded the sale of Figma. So glad it was stopped. Adobe already has such a monopoly on the design industry.

Did you even read what I wrote edgelord?

Wild. My old place we relied on this despite me urging us to use Figma/Sketch and Blender (amazing for 2D art). Naturally logistics factored into it as our clients relied on Adobe as well, but there were plenty of projects that didn’t need it.

We also had the dumbest guidelines to ensure no leaks. I would routinely get app requests refused despite the fact their source was right there on GitHub.

So now what are they gonna do? Because if they use Adobe, they can no longer ensure that a clients work won’t hit the net. May not seem like much for small indie projects but if we snagged the next GTA or Valorant, you bet that would attract some serious lookiloos.

Not sure if a client would find “it wasn’t us it was Adobe” all that comforting!
