hey heads up to everyone who uses more than one name or has strong separation of personal and professional identity:

I changed my display name in the web client for Teams to my full legal name for a call with the bank and this, to my astonishment, propagated to my local Windows install and now that name is all over it.

need a micro usb otg adapter and i know i have one but i also know it'll be much easier to buy another one on ebay than actually find the fucking thing

found my old tablet & had the idea of using it as a music player or something - its an x86 based thing that currently dual boots Android 4.4 and Windows 8.1, but honestly the Android side is so old as to be useless, can't install shit for apps on it
I found there is an Android 5 rom kicking around but is it even worth installing that? or should I just maybe try and repartition the whole thing and stick Windows 10 on it?

It's funny: Both Bandcamp and Patreon had the easiest and most straightforwardly long-term profitable business models imaginable: Sit between indie creatives and their fans, provide some basic services for mediation (comment sections, media posts, semi-global payment) and take enough of a cut of any payments to cover the costs and then some.

But because that business model wouldn't scale forever, they are instead being gutted, because ever _increasing_ growth is the only model capital accepts

installed it on my phone and it mostly went off pretty well but there is one (1) highly visible speck of dust right in the middle which will bug me for the rest of my life
