I worked for an MSP that supported an all-Mac environment. Got real tired of telling people that their problem was a well-known bug in Mac that Apple has ignored for over 10 years and would probably never be fixed. I had to give that explanation a lot, for many different issues.
At least with Windows people expect problems like that. Mac people refuse to believe anything could possibly be Apple’s fault.
Had the same experience on Blue sky. I was never into Twitter, so I checked out Bsky to see if that was better. Nah. Just different political circle jerking.
The scientific method. Try to falsify your own beliefs.
At long last, and at grotesque costs, we finally have a machine that repeats anything a billionaire says. What a time to be alive.
Wrong. The single biggest thing most of us can do to reduce harm to the environment is not have kids. Each human, no matter how responsible, can’t help but add to the problems. The mountain of diapers for each baby alone is obscene. Each baby you don’t have is a whole ass person that will never add to food or electricity or water demands at all.
I’m picturing a guy sighing with his hands on his head, staring at most of a car with the front wheel stuck in the router. Like, he can figure this out, just give him a minute. Maybe he needs a walk to clear his head. The pieces are there.
The least believable part of this is a person like that just voluntarily hanging out in public around people.
Oh nooooo, however will I do the needful without Microsoft’s world famous blue ribbon customer support.
I’ve formatted and installed W11 on dozens of computers and never had it fail once. My gaming rig is an Optiplex from 2014, runs 11 just fine.
Like I said. Judging, and projecting your problems onto everyone else.
Possibility: it can technically happen
Probability: statistically significant likelihood of happening
Plausibility: a possibility that passes the laugh test
If they drank the whole damn thing that night, then agreed, that’s a red flag. OP didn’t say that though. Maybe they can clarify.
Yes, millions of people for thousands of years have done something like this. It’s called liquid courage for a reason. I used to give myself exact small doses of alcohol to loosen up my introversion before social situations. If your job depends on it, it’s basically a performance enhancer.
Not promoting alcoholism here, despite what I’m sure lots of comments will say. Personally, I barely drink at all anymore because it’s gotten really hard on my body. Just giving a different viewpoint. There’s so much addict pearl-clutching in here. Plenty of people can and do use drugs and alcohol responsibly. If you “don’t need” them, great. If responsible doses help you live better, great.
I downvoted you because I think you’re judging just a little. Not everyone is an addict.
This is one of those times when you’re gonna have to acknowledge your own cognitive biases to move on. We all have them. This one is pretty obvious.
Microsoft support was already mostly useless. So, yeah, a useless AI probably could replace that, but it would also probably be more expensive.

I started to understand how screwed up Reddit was when I saw a front page post with like 70k upvotes on a video for a “fishing knot” that requires using both free ends of the line. Either 70k people didn’t think about that for more than one second, or it’s all bots. Tens of thousands of them.
Did Apple forget their company operates on hype?
Edit: found the Apple fanboys, I guess
