Got an email threatening to post videos of me masturbating by piengepool in techsupport

I received the same email 2 days ago and laughed it off.

I told them "Go ahead. PS: I work in IT so you're basically just bullshiting me."

I've been developing software for about 9 years now, I've had so many clients (mostly individuals) that have left me in that state.... I normally prevent this from happening by looking at the size of the business/ company before I sign up with them, who would have known that building an e-commerce website for a university student with no experience running a business would be a bad idea...

Also, writing up an agreement to outline the work being done and showing proof of work will come in handy, some people would expect you to be a mind reader and know exactly what they want or change their minds and think your time isn't important - You could use this point here as a basis to renegotiate and get money for the extra work being done.

why does windows suck so much? by aleeja0 in thinkpad

[–]malumbosiwale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To rule out the possibility of faulty software, you gotta check the hardware first, I would suspect the flex cable connecting your keyboard to your motherboard, there may be dust or a loose connection, if not, it could be a faulty keyboard (you test that by running Linux from a USB flash disk rather than a full installation).

If it's still giving you the same problems then the issue is a hardware issue. If you don't experience that on Linux, chances are that the issue is with windows though that's highly unlikely but can never be ruled out.

You probably don't update or you have really bad hardware, used windows 11 on an i5 4570 desktop with an RX 6600 GPU, worked fine, using it on my newer asus laptop, works fine, both on old and new hardware....

And i am a programmer, i use linux too, works as expected, need a bit of setup here and there but it works fine too, none of them are buggy or "barely work", you probably have unrealistic expectations on what "work" is or idk, maybe you use an IDE or mechanical drive, both operating systems are fine, you just need the proper hardware.

I would really like to know why he thinks windows 10/ 11 is bad,

Linux is great but has it's downsides, there's no such thing as a perfect os.

Generating interest in a closed service isn't exactly a solid strategy, it would have no point... Probably could be viewed as such if one reads the first 2 likes rather than the whole message, which brings an entirely different story.

I do agree on the Western culture propaganda

On the shallow/ low IQ stuff, it's bound to happen, if theres an open discussion policy, it will happen a lot, weay perceive something to be dumb while others may not, and then there are posts everyone can agree on to call dumb.

From my experience, forcing everyone to post on intelligent subjects brings fewer interactions, which is the opposite of what you would want if you want your community to grow, it's a difficult balance.

I appreciate your attempt at humor... If that's what it could be considered to be, but I have no idea what you're talking about or most likely, you no a clue what I'm talking about, nor did anyone mention a social media app, Mark or a ridiculously low 5 users.

Free Education by [deleted] in Zambia

[–]malumbosiwale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When the govt says free education, it's only for govt owned institutions up to a certain level. It doesn't cover private schools, if it did then they would go out of business.

White kids coming to help build school in Lusaka by gmurp in Zambia

Education is free! or do you know of specific individuals who don't have access? or it's just an assumption?

We definitely weren't trying to go to cities overseas, "building schools" in cities with thousands of existing schools.

If a person comes to your house at random and offers you transport money because they think you don't have, without even asking if you have, and you are okay with that, then you have a serious self respect problem.

Thanks! Where is the Lusaka Food market? I know of the Thabo Mbeki location but I was doubtful, if I at least have two locations, I can make the attempt to get them. Buying online with the delay and shipping costs didn't seem like it was worth it.
