Needy Programs @ tonsky.me

"Programs that have their own agenda and that are trying to make it yours, too. Programs that want you to think about them. Programs that think they are entitled to a part of your attention. “Pick me” programs.

And you know what? Fuck these programs. Give me back my computer."

Someone should tell me exactly why some people incorrectly think that this is a bot account.

Starting to refactor my adblock filters and publish them, since I've got some rules some folks might find handy. There will be more than the one list there currently as I clean things up in my custom filters.

So far, just have a list to block Sinclair Broadcasting, but there will be more.

A parishioner talked to me about baptizing her great-grandchild. She gave me the number of the mother and I shot her a text yesterday.

**crickets**

Called the parishioner today and said, “Look, I need to talk to her so we can do this.”

We’ll see what happens. I’m always in favor of baptisms, but I get a little grumpy when people aren’t willing to do the basic stuff.

Semi rhetorical question: why do I have to download a new app at every charging station when I take my electric vehicle on an out of town trip? Why can’t I just use a credit card for all of them like at gas stations? #ev #charging #annoyances

Shit like this, right here, is why people hate #TicketBastard.

So, I can either accept an "instant offer" — that's less than half the price I paid for my ticket — or I can price my extra ticket higher than the priced I paid for the ticket.

That I have an extra ticket to sell is because I bought the tickets when they first became available, but then, several weeks later, my wife ended up having foot surgery scheduled for the day before the event.

I found a book in a Little Free Library that has the same premise as the upcoming film "Good Boy." I can't find it in my piles of books. I apparently can't get it from B&N or anywhere else, either, because of its terrible title, which is simply the dog's name. Which is "Thor." #books #movies #annoyances

Another reason to hate working on #Windows? It seems like every remote-desktop method requires a different #CtrlAltDel alternative.
• For some, the key-combo is: --
• For others, the key-combo is: --
• However, for this version of RDP, the key-combo is: -- (thanks internet search!)

Getting REEEEEEEALLY sick and fucking tired of sites not accepting my #GoogleVoice phone number for authentication. It might actually be even worse when they accept it for #2FA after rejecting it for verifying my account.

"We don't accept #VOIP numbers: they're not secure" …but you're fine with SMS-based 2FA instead of offering me #TOTP (or, you know, using my device's #biometric capabilities)??

Yes, #JavaScript is bad and all it can do is generate #bloatware and #annoyances like #ableist shite!

• Cuz everytime someone decided a site needs to mandate #JS they explicitly went out of their way to shove that bs in it!

#Bosch #annoyances: gets his house broken into several times. NEVER locks his front door. 🤔

Bosch has #trackers placed on his car in multiple episodes & seems clueless as to why people know where he is.

#Bosch has his office bugged when he & Honey “Money” Chandler are being investigated by the feds. Finally finds out he’s being bugged, doesn’t tell Honey who is also bugged & he has meetings in her office.🤔

#Coltrane is your typical #baddog #actor. Always looks at his trainer.

I haven't had a mosquito bite for weeks, and yesterday I got eight in the time it took my husband to unlock the front door. Grrrr. #annoyances

Me: (Opens support case with #RedHat)
Me: (Includes detailed steps on how to reproduce the issue)
RedHat CSR: "Oh. That's not a problem. That's just an error in one of the tools' outputs. Do to see for yourself"
Me: "Sorry. No. Been through that. Also, I provided steps to you to reproduce the issue. It's pretty freaking obvious that you ignored those steps before sending your useless reply."
