Soulseek?

I usually find songs I like and explore in / download from the folder it’s in

More streamlined menus that reduce visual clutter and prioritize top user actions so you can get to the important things quicker.

So make things even harder to find? A classic menu bar is not clutter!

Can I refuse MS Authenticator?

So my company decided to migrate office suite and email etc to Microsoft365. Whatever. But for 2FA login they decided to disable the option to choose “any authenticator” and force Microsoft Authenticator on the (private) phones of both employees and volunteers. Is there any valid reason why they would do this, like it’s...

In my company at least, Aegis works for the first few logins, but it will keep nagging you have to switch to Microsoft’s authenticator and you’re locked out after a while.

Apparently MS uses a “proprietary PhoneFactor 2FA solution” that Aegis doesn’t support.

Asahi means “rising sun” in Japanese, and it is also the name of an apple cultivar. 旭りんご (asahi ringo) is what we know as the McIntosh Apple, the apple variety that gave the Mac its name.

If you’re thinking what I’m thinking, it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with beer.

Reminds me of when I joined some classmates to the supermarket. We got kicked out while waiting in line because they didn’t want middleschoolers there because we’re all thieves anyways. So most of the group walked out without paying.

Pronouns and tribal affiliations are now forbidden in South Dakota public university employee emails (apnews.com)

A new South Dakota policy to stop the use of gender pronouns by public university faculty and staff in official correspondence is also keeping Native American employees from listing their tribal affiliations in a state with a long and violent history of conflict with tribes....

There are no pronouns in symbols ♂, ♀

It was interesting how random people came to talk to you and were really trying to get to know you. I don’t think that would work in modern day internet.

I knew they were around because at times I randomly remembered my ICQ number and I tried logging in, but they won’t let you if you forgot your password.

I had to read 3 books to write a small report on it. It’s just to show comprehension skills, I guess. I don’t see an issue with that.

I noticed it getting worse over the years. I switched to SearXNG last year when I felt Google was getting really ridiculous.

They started censoring a lot at some point, maybe because they had to, but that’s not the only reason.

Yes. That way you can create a blocklist, which is what makes it so good for me.

I’ve tried some instances and I don’t see a delay. My hosted version is a bit slower than public ones but that depends on your system, I guess.

No, you have to link Google if you want to pay with your phone. But you can also just get their physical card instead.

That’s unnecessarily clickbaity, the article doesn’t mention it’s specifically nudes that came back, just old photos.

Solving CAPTCHA for 'Bicycle' -- Include Rider?

I wish to solve CAPTCHA with bicycles, motorcycles etc. in a manner consistent with chaotic good alignment, benevolence, humanitarianism, etc. Shall I select squares that include riders/passengers but not also their conveyance? Was reminded of my uncertainty about this when reading this recent post by @Wilshire to the Technology...

Fleppensteijn,

I don’t include the rider. More confusing are stairs and crosswalks: where do they start and end? Often, there is no crosswalk on the picture but you have to select other road markings to continue. So it doesn’t really matter.

Everyone just copied everything from each other. Floppy, then Twilight CDs. Then came the internet and exploring music there was better than sitting around waiting for a song to come on the radio to quickly press record. It was normal when I was young to share, not really an active choice.

Well, they’re not wrong. If I had known I’d be in the same place after 10 years, I would’ve made myself more comfortable.

The article discusses scam calls, not spam calls.

I got that fake Microsoft support scam call only once, back in early 2000s, on my parent’s land line.
