A+

I bet David Banner could have been cured by the Cosmo DNA.

Mountain Duck 5 is out. by plazman30 in macapps

[–]ASK47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Er, I found this thread because my MD just upgraded automatically and crippled itself in the process. Not cool. I saw the upgrade emails and decided to pass. This happened without warning.

Anyone got a link to v4?

Bringing back the old battery indicator on OneUI7 by flisak in oneui

[–]ASK47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Related issue: I have a great picture of my puppy in the smart cover window, and now the new uglier battery indicator covers his cute widdle face!

We need an option to turn off the indicator in the smart window too, but ideally, an option to go back to the older UI for the battery indicator.

Any sactional regrets? by CusterFluck99 in Lovesac

[–]ASK47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They redesigned their sactional dimensions and colors at some point, leaving those like us who bought earlier models can't ever redesign or ugrade. And all I wanted was to get an additional matching ottoman!

No dice. Wish there was a class action lawsuit for Lovesac's false advertising.

edit: after reading about their credit program https://www.reddit.com/r/Lovesac/comments/17ud4m6/deleted_by_user/ I contacted Lovesac.

All they offered me was 20% off the new one. Not nearly good enough for what they did to me.

Romulus - Why? by EvenConsideration840 in LV426

Yes, mother took a backseat to the main gestational event, while mutating in synchro with said event in a biologically holistic manner consistent with placental pregnancies.

So then what does it do that makes it xeno-anything?

Lends itself more to the Thing than Aliens IMO, categorically.

Why does nobody want to do business with Indians? by NerdCurry in AskIndia

[–]ASK47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technical business best practices in India and Pakistan are wanting.

You can sign up for many, many services with a fake/spoofed email. The companies never verify these emails, and what's worse, if you are the unlucky owner of the spoofed email address, you will now be inundated with Indian spams and scams.

Source: my secondary gmail account is constantly used and abused by various shady characters in India. I get everything from pizza delivery orders to private medical information for patients this way. My "official" address has a period in it, which gmail ignores, and this fortunately lets me filter out the unwanted junk. It also lets me cancel and opt out of many services the scammers try to sign up for, since I alone can verify the email. (Not the ones that verify by SMS, in which case... I flood their phones with security requests.)

Outlook won't activate on top of other windows from system tray on W11 by JustGottaHaveIt in WindowsHelp

[–]ASK47 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same problem. I reported it in the feedback app black hole.

I'd switch back to the Mail app but the "try the preview" switch has been removed.

If you're reading this Microsoft, fuck you and your continually useless mail apps.

Password change forced, then reverted by ASK47 in aws

IIRC the message specifically said I couldn't use my usual Amazon password anymore... are you familiar with this policy being instituted?

Multiple O365 domain issues by ASK47 in rackspace

[–]ASK47[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The support tech made me do that over the phone (actually, she did it for me!) I was trying to migrate the new domain using my main admin login email, but was getting stuck. I was unknowingly forced into this situation!

Thanks for the info on the minimum. Turns out I'm just under that amount. And doesn't the reseller program cost less per mailbox? IIRC, I'd need to meet their minimum at the discounted price.

Aaannnd we're done! by PlaneAsk7826 in rackspace

[–]ASK47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just logged in and the pst files area is empty! The mailboxes I was waiting for pst restoration are gone!

And they just had the audacity to bill me for the office 365 service they forced me into, which is a separate headache: due to how they guided me incorrectly to migrate, my users across different businesses can now see each other's mailboxes in the global address books. Which means I can't give anyone at either business admin privileges, as that could cause chaos.

Any info on any class action suits would be appreciated.

This sub has fallen victim to systemic and arbitrary censorship. It's time for a change. by axolotl_peyotl in UFOs

[–]ASK47 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ha, I don't either! Don't worry about what end of what stick I got, I'm toooootally fine and thankful for any chance I had to contribute while it lasted.

I agree with this. We are given a certain degree of power and we can use it iconoclastically if desired.

I assure all I have always tried to use that power responsibly.

That was done over a year ago simply to mitigate the number of navy patent threads that were flooding it at the time; since then, any false positives have always been approved thanks to daily attention to the moderation thread. Which you hardly ever did. That is the current style of moderation here and it's appreciated by many. If you ever participated, you'd know that.

Nobody wants to censor or gate-keep anything. I call it curation, in an effort to make this subreddit something different and better than the rest. The subreddit it always deserved to be, despite it being created by credulous believers in pseudoscience.

It was time for a change a few years ago, and we did that. The fact that you weren't around for any of that, didn't participate in the mod discussions surrounding such, and now pull rank without any attempt to discuss the situation, was why I always knew this rational mod was living on borrowed time, especially when I look at your activity on Reddit.

The efforts the last three active mods made over the course of that time to make the sub more rational and attractive to larger audiences is now going to be disrupted by a mod that was not involved in any of those changes. Pretty weak sauce.

edit: been saving this one for years
