I got a CheatHappens Lifetime account which I don't need anymore.
I'm not sure how this is gonna work cuz devRant doesn't have PM... but maybe will figure something out..
First that replies saying they want it, gets it.1 -
Creating a Google Photos shared collection and added 1000 photos too it... Or so I thought....
Find out afterwards there's a 500 photo limit... So NONE got added...
WTF... WONDERFUL USER DESIGN... DUMBASS7 -
Why the fuck do people not reply all when I clearly added people for a real and even let them know...8

Well not yelled because we're all remote, at least I am from the rest of the team. But there was a new joiner, a she, but she needed a lot of hands holding even though I told her the gist of how things worked and what she needed to do...
She complained to my boss apparently that I was being mean and vague to her...
So that became a rant here... And other than that one time, my boss kept her away from me. -
I just nuked my LinkedIn profile... Now it's an empty dessert.
That should keep the recruiters away!
Shoulda thought of that before I changed my email to a thruway one though...11 -
Some retweeting may help... Just got another recruiter from Amazon and well there's actually no. Email spam complaint...

Uh... What? This is for Live Transcribe... Why would I want to hide it?
Interestingly though, I now can't uninstall it... Maybe it became a system app with the last upgrade (Pixel phone)3 -
Signed up for Prime this morning... And just got 2 emails from Amazon recruiters.
Thought all the tech companies had hiring freezes... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Either way I'm not on the market.4 -
Reading fine print FTW... Samsung Galaxy Watch features only work with Galaxy phone...
Yes uh.. no...1 -
I just bought a massage chair... At $1200, it's cheaper than an iPhone/Samsung phone or a gaming laptop/desktop7

I just submitted "a lower price found" on GrubHub for an order I just made. Haven't gotten back to me yet but apparently if they agree, they'll give a $15 credit.
I think other services have this gaurantee too... So wondering...
How hard is it to write an app coloring menu prices between all these services...
Could get a lot of credits... And why haven't they done it themselves.
I'm not really up for the task at the moment but basically you just generate a table with all the prices from each service and highlight the ones that are different...
Then profit!!!6 -
I just realized while looking to buy a movie on an Android phone and using prime video and get the error message that I can't buy from the app...
This is pretty much saying only Google play store is the only place you can buy anything now... Feels like Apple but...
It's pretty much a monopoly okay and anticompetitive... Feels like it could get seriously sued for this -
Don't buy stocks in companies just because your former coworkers went there and got a huge pay boost11

Microsoft Teams login says password is incorrect then and for a captcha
I type it again but fails...
I'm like wtf... Could it be the captcha...
Which I entered in all lowercase
It doesn't say the captcha is case sensitive though..
Next few times it gives me captchas with k... Teehee me like 5 tries to login
Are we trying to verify passwords/humanness or whether I can somehow tell the difference between K and k?1 -
Here’s Mark Zuckerberg demonstrating Meta’s high-end Project Cambria VR headset
**Without showing the headset**
They forgot to pixelate the part where they showcase the product...

The Verge: Google shows off AR glasses that might make a case for augmented reality.
See live translations... What a fckin joke...
The Live Translate and Transcribe features on the Pixel 6 and along with all the other features... Are a joke too....
Can only translate between English, French, Deutsch, Italian and Japanese...

So I deleted my last post looking for the next tech sale date as wanted a wireless charger because I found a deal...
It was like 60% off... But after I got buy instead regret...
The sites reviews are crap, it's a reseller apparently and no actual brand is listed...
And then I realized what I really wanted was a fast USB charger that takes a regular USB input instead of Google's choice of a microusb one ....
Another $20 down the drain... It seems the return policy is crap or non-existent... -
Today I discovered a new feature of my electric toothbrush that I've had for years...
Sort of obvious afterwards but when I put it back on the charging stand, it automatically turns off.
Guess now I have a reason to put it back each time after use though2 -
I don't know if it's just me but if you sign up for Dashpass and then cancel during the month, it refunds the entire subscription...
Even when I've used all the benefits...
Seems like the devs forgot an if statement...2 -
I rewrote a giant VBA workbook (lots of business formulas, custom pivots of the data) into Java apps/microservices so that new tabs, other reports can be easily added using (JSON) data from the other apps.
In general, I was the only dev in the team that understood that monoliths are hard to change or scale...
