@PaulWermer @drahardja True. That reminds me of this comic by #WorkChronicles. https://workchronicles.com/comics/page/38/
@drahardja there is a distressing tendency to reward those who respond to a disaster, while ignoring those who do the difficult work of preventing a disaster. The latter is so much harder to see, and also so much more challenging...
@mavica_again I can totally understand that, I remember holding Skype in pretty high regard when it came to the technical side, even now as I'm pretty sure that technology from Skype is underpinning the calls/meeting functionality in Teams that I've been using a lot the last few years
I guess I just didn't have many friends on Skype back then and when they added more bloat I didn't see the reason to stay
wtf a huge ice block just almost crushed me??? that's not very osha compliant im gonna go complain
@mavica_again not sure I trust M$ to provide a nice experience, I remember how bloated they made Skype after they bought it, It's the same thing they keep doing to Windows and Edge.
The fascists love to demonize queer ppl for "making everything about sex" or "making their gender their whole personality" but every time I go to a queer event I am struck by how precisely they have this backwards. Cis society is profoundly sexualized, and literally every interaction is pre-coded with assumed gender. In a queer space, you purposefully never make assumptions about who someone is or what they're up to, so interactions are much *less* coded by gender and *less* intronsically sexual
