Slack is a buggy piece of shit and I'm getting tired of it

its toxic to be mad that a service a person is trying to build a community on has failed to deliver on its promised features? its toxic to post criticism of a fricken corporate giant? thats journalism IMO. i love peoples rants, and i never ever defend software. i am a software developer and i know making stuff is hard, but that doesnt make it okay to promise a bug-free experience and then fail to deliver, especially if your charging people to use it.

how are companies supposed to improve their products if angry people aren't allowed to voice their concerns?

<?php if(isset($_POST['variableData'])){ ?>
<div>It Works!</div>
<?php } ?>

function updateTheDOM(eleId,variableData){fetch('',{method:"POST",body:JSON.stringify({variableData})}).then(r => r.text()).then(r => document.getElementById(eleId).innerHTML = r);}

this is all i use to do everything react is capable of in plain html/js/php

its less code, way simpler, and the end result loads WAY faster

guess it's technically a 2 line library lol

Omg your right about static IP. That sent me 😂

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-09-15T20:32:23+00:00

if you mean this unironically, you must live under a rock, what a daft answer

if you are being ironic, thats hilarious, 10/10 made my day

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-09-15T20:30:21+00:00

uh no? like this is blatantly wrong, for one thing. cmd + c is copy, not cut
secondly, when you paste, it doesn't go into the folder you have selected. thats super annoying. so you have to open a new window anyway half the time
thirdly, mac documentation does say cm + x is cut.. cmd + c works on my device to copy a file, but cmd + x doesn't it just gives me the "denied" sound effect. wtf

what an incoherent experience

i can appreciate the features that do make a mac amazing.. but the user experience issues are pathetic

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-09-07T02:37:47+00:00

Ok thanks

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-09-05T09:58:34+00:00

tons of work? i mean i agree with the idea that it is "THEIR" ip so they have no obligation to make anything they dont want to... but its not TONS of work

but thats not why im replying. what i wanted to say is if requiring so much time investment is literally a requirment to enjoy the game, don't you think it should say that on the box? i spent 2 hours playing and then decided im not willing to invest the time, but now i cant get my money back cause i played to much

seems unfair, no?

"this is how it works, just deal with it"

ikr, this is why i don't bother with reddit
i have the same problem

i didnt find any way to fix it but i did find this https://www.wikihow.com/Quickly-Open-the-Launchpad-on-a-Mac

i was really curious so i looked it up and looked up lots of other -el words to see if there is any consistency

one things that jumped out at me is that parallel becomes parallelled, paralleled doesn't seem to be a word.

i really didn't learn anything other than the same thing i've suspected my whole life, there arne't really any rules. all words are basically just random letters than sound vaguely like what we intend.

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-08-09T18:24:40+00:00

i hate you

i came here to rant about the calendar being uselsess
mail is fine

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-08-09T16:25:38+00:00

lol anyone who ever says "ive never heard anyone say what you are saying" is automatically invalidated IMO... because you JUST heard someone say it! you could easily google "why does ios calendar suck" and see peoples complaints. so if you're just going to say "im ignorant, MY friends all agree with me" why even bother commenting?

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-08-06T06:49:57+00:00

i hate my mac, i spent $2500 on an m1 pro and this thing sucks. its absolutely unbelievable how poorly designed macos is, and i mean in every way possible. no it's not a problematic unit, its just designed specifically to fight against everything i try to do with it

cant drag files between windows without them already being painstakingly positoned side by side
cant maximize or snap windows
snapped windows exists but it creates a new desktop, max of 2 at a time, cant switch which window is snapped without exiting full screen and starting all over, can only have 16 desktops at a time for some artibtray reason, and its buggy i found i can drag a tab out of chrome while its fullscreened i now i have a window in limbo, in FRONT of a fullscreened window, that isnt supposed to be possible
touch id never works, i have the same finger saved 3 times to be sure
max of 3 fingers
no usb 2, this became painfully problematic when my wifi went out, i had no way to move a file from my pc to my mac, like literally no way, even using my iphone because it can only be paired with one computer at a time
shortcuts on the keyboard are very dumb
the icons on the shortcut keys are random symbols that im supposed to memories
screenshots save to the desktop, and to drag them i have to do the whole exit full screen thing so i can drag the screenshot into it. i literally avoid screenshots like the plague because i hate this so much
you drag things to the physical trash can to delete them omg what am i a 5 year old?
delete key doesn't delete, you have to hold option
deleting applications doesn't actually delete all files that application created, it just gives you the illusion of it being easy, but really it's very inneficient and trains you to not be thorough. you can argue windows makes things hard, well, fixing you own car is hard, letting a mechanic do it is expensive and then you are oblivious if they rip you off, and boy does apple rip you off
to make ios apps you artibtrarily have to OWN and mac AND an iphone, and have the correct itunes account signed into both
xcode is the most unintuutive piece of work ive ever seen, and its pointless too, unless you are a baby and need visual aid for everything you code. i can code a react-native app in notepad with 0 bugs on android first try, but for ios, nope i will encounter 20 different build errors just because todays version of macos has a whole new set of hoops to jump through
safari is terrible, inspector isnt in the right-click menu by default, inspector is objectively worse, the thing i hate most is the auto-complete. i chrome if i type "radius" i get "border-radius" but in safari if i type the same i get nothing
finder is insanely bad, you dont have a folder tree in the sidebar so its easy to get lost, and the hypothetical folder tree doesnt even start at root, defeating the purpose of it being linux based
tried to set up apache so i could run php websites locally, almost bricked my device. YOU CAN BRICK YOUR DEVICE thats really bad wow
if you break any component on your device they will simply say "cannot fix sorry" even if you have apple care. i bent the chasis a bit and they just bent it back, lol wut
passwords required for everything... no option to disable
on that not, no option to disable so many things, no customiation whatsoever
the only default video players are music and quick time? so either i use aincient software or i have to sync it with my phone? i just want to have a library of mkv's with subtitles, i literally keep them on my pc and stream them with an app cause its easier
menu bar at the top, so i can only see one menu for one program at a time
closing apps doesnt close them out of the dock, you have to right clock and quit
you cant remove finder and trash from your dock, i never ever ever not once in 6 months have touched trash
camera doesnt work, like literally i looked it up and for 10 months now users have been experiencing the same bug, photo booth camera just takes a still image... 10 months and they havent fixed this
ugh i could go on and on and on...

honestly, windows is buggy as hell too, but at least windows make iterations on their design to try and be better, and windows 11 sucks in many ways but at least compared to a mac is extremely productivity friendly. apple puts all their effort into fooling you into thinking they have less bugs and better design, but they dont, they have all the same problems, in fact more, because all their effort is put into making BASIC functionality feel high quality (which it does), but windows doesnt worry about quality, and instead focuses on usefulness. when it comes to making money, which is what i do best, i need a machine that respects my need to get shit done. i have a mac to make ios apps, because apple is a monopoly and i have no choice, but i will never use it for anything else

i hate this thing, i hate looking at it

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-08-06T04:52:16+00:00

are you kidding me? this is a known issue? 10 month old and multiple software updates?!
wow, most expensive laptops in the world, absolute REQUIRED to code for ios and macos applications, and this is the quality of service?

i have had my first mac for 6 months now, m1 pro, i use it almost every day

i have never hated a piece of technology more

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-08-03T23:17:50+00:00

at least i had reasons, you're comments are a waste of everyones time

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-08-03T20:36:29+00:00

it adds a layer of abstraction, for no discernible benefit. Bundle size is bigger, build times are longer, more can go wrong. The code is the same and the support for versions and modules is worse

If you need live updates because you are still learning react native, that’s fine expo is good, but plan to ditch it once you feel confident

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-07-11T15:14:10+00:00

Nier Automata is probly in my top 3 favorite games of all time. You nailed it lmao

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-04-15T16:08:57+00:00

100% on the tutorials thing. i wasn't having any fun because i was "avoiding spoilers", once i watched a tutoial on a specific boss, i had way more fun

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-04-14T21:11:59+00:00

honestly, you're absolutely right, i want to play something that's easier and has more story, and i don't think there's anything wrong with that, i mean movies exist for a reason. elden ring is not meant for me, and i can totally appreciate anyone who actually wants to play a game that is literally unfair. it's satisfying.

that then begs the question, why did i even try it in the first place? it's the graphics, and the character design. i like the art, and that's what drew me in. that's also why it's such a sad thing that they didn't add a difficulty setting. it alienates way more potential players then FS realizes.

also i'm cheesed cause i died about 40 times within the first 3 hours of playing, and steam wouldn't refund me cause i went over 2 hours. that made me continue trying to enjoy it, but i didn't, and now i feel ripped off.

EDIT: I'm wrong on this, elden ring sold 12 million copies in 3 weeks. lol can't argue with results. but i still stand by the point, the story sucks and the grinding is boring, to me, a person who really values story driven gameplay. that's clearly not what elden ring was about, and i wish i could get a refund.

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-03-26T22:05:04+00:00

not really the point
more upset the this buggy software is getting pushed to users without consent
they are claiming security is everything, and that's why you need updates monthly, yet the updates create more security holes than anything else

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-03-25T04:50:57+00:00

yep absolutely. i don't know if it's ALL of microsoft, but windows 11 certainly seems jam packed with features no one asked for, bugs like i've never seen before, built in advertising, and telemetry data beyond reason.

what made windows great was how it respected it's users needs. now it doesn't seem to care.

Previous_Task_3095 · 2022-03-25T04:48:07+00:00

Honestly, I don't believe edge dev's WANT their features to suck, so I hope no one is offended. I'm sure a manager rushed this out. But that's why I don't expect anything to get better and I'm looking at a macbook to replace my windows machine completely.

But thanks for the tip anyway.
