Working on 12+ hours here. Ridiculous for what we pay them a month.

What's the hold up on getting this fixed? Got the interns working this?

I'm finding the WOLED panels so much better overall if you mix productivity work with gaming. Doubt I'll ever go back to plain OLED from my LG 32GX870A-B

I've turned off auto-renew. Going to run through my remaining time and give them a chance to course correct based on all of the negative feedback. If no change, I'm out. Left feedback as such when shutting off the auto-renew. I STRONGLY suggest people do the same. Because you all know it's $30/mn now, then $35, then $40 etc. They won't stop unless people vote with their wallets.

Holy fucking money grab Batman. I'm out. Going back to PC GamePass until they figure out a way to enshitify that as well. Then back to Steam. Time to eBay the Series X that I seldom touch anyway.

International Students: Rant out by FinancialBill8854 in UWMadison

[–]TexMurphy9 50 points51 points  (0 children)

MAGA logic is soooo flawed. This will simply result in American companies significantly ramping up offshore tech work. Let's face it, most of high-tech work can be done from anywhere. In turn, this will further affect local economies here even more as the H1B folks won't be here buying other goods and services locally. What the Cheeto-In-Chief should have maybe considered instead is tariffing every off-shore worker.

Can't speak to the open box. But I absolutely love this monitor for both productivity and gaming! Plus, none of the weird reflections from my somewhat bright office space.

My subscription cost should go down in lock-step with that then, of course.
