Is Gmail still the preferred email address to use on resumes?


If you’re gonna pay for Antivirus, shout out to ESET NOD32.

They have gotten a bit expensive though. I’m buying a 1 year sub for $10 on Black Friday.


Like most Chinese products I wouldn’t trust their quality or their customer support, and would expect the thing to spy on me 24/7.


China… because China is a black hole of information and will steal anything and everything for hegemonic advantage. If that DNA belongs to family or friends of powerful people, that could lead to a future blackmail advantage

Russia, because fuck the West.


I was on reddit for 12 years. My time spent on that platform and posting directly correlates to when I first found it (posted a lot) vs. when I quit earlier this year.

Reddit in it’s infancy was great and the users and the subreddits, with a few notable exceptions were great too.

Once it got too big/popular… About 6 years ago you could note the decline and quality of the posting


It’s aimed at the U.S. Government. There’s been an absolutely massive shift to get to Windows 10, updating systems as old as Windows 2000 to get there. MS advertised Windows 10 as their final OS, eventually backtracking and releasing Windows 11 and will continue to make iterative releases in the future. But for a moment The Government believed it and thought it was a great time to bite the bullet and go all in. Now that most major systems are upgraded to W10, it’s doubtful from my perspective that U.S.G. will be able to support or migrate to W11 or even W12, meaning they will most likely pay a lot of money over many many years to keep MS providing security updates for the W10 platform.


Y’all are also smart enough to know and prohibit retailers from boosting prices just before discounting them to trick consumers into thinking they’re getting a huge deal when they’re actually paying average, or above average cost for the product.


They’re trying to shake people out of a contract that favors a set price, not prone to sudden increases. The Ultimate plan looks great now, then in a year it will be double the cost and in another year it’ll be double again.
