  • How many IT security people does it take to screw in a light bulb? 50 to Palm the work off on the service desk and another 250 to block service desks access to be able to screw in the light bulb.

    Another few hundred to make it seem like the original IT security were actually useful… IT support get are still at the same amount of people… They do the work and they get the blame.

    Might be obvious, IT security at my company have no fucking idea what they’re doing and just making random shit up to keep their jobs alive.

    I now have to do IT support with one hand tied behind my back…







  • I’m on Win10 LtSC IOT… The only reason I moved from Win7 to that operating system was so I could keep steam alive. My steam account is 18-19 years old. Any one have step by step instructions on how to get the nicest, easiest to use Linux distro for a guy who uses 5 different windows keyboard shortcuts entry 5 minutes?

    I’ve been with Windows since 95, I’ve been working in IT support since XP… I just want to get away from Microsoft, keep all my games, keep a file explorer and be able to quick change my brain to learn new (just as easy ) keyboard shortcuts like Crtl-C, Ctrl-F, Win-R, Win-E…


  • He’s sadly right… My wife is Chinese, she watches AI Chinese dramas and she has told me that most of China watch AI dramas. And Gen Z watch AI, Everyone younger than 30 relies on AI.

    Now before you downvote me, I’m 37 and I’ve worked in IT since I was 19… AI gives me nothing I can’t find for myself. The only time I’ve used AI was when chat GPT was fresh and new and I told it to be more sarcastic and snarky in it’s answers and I argued with it for 2-3 mins before I got bored.

    Humans are much better at arguing with me and being sarcastic to me.

    I don’t care for AI, Turn off all the air conditioners and AI burns out.



  • My company is moving to Windows 11, I had one of my service desk teammates tell me that for an IT support person I’m very critical of change

    Before Windows 11 I was critical of change because every change came with no new training for my team and a giant email to the company explaining very lazily about the changes and with the same text at the end of every email… “Any problems call the service desk”.

    Now we’ve lost active directory… Now I’m in a position where an incredibly incompetent IT security have restricted our access to intune and Entra and then the business wants me to still perform my daily duties as normal.

    Upside is that same IT security is getting removed in the next few weeks.

    Probably to be replaced by someone else even worse.

    I just want to learn how to use Entra and Intune… Everything Microsoft touches turns to shit.

    Active directory just worked… It was built when people at Microsoft actually knew how the operating system worked… None of those people are still at Microsoft…



  • Non-American here So Trump in 2015 was so bloody funny, he was shitting on all these weasels of the Republican party and they all hated him. I tuned in for a laugh. Election Day 2016 came up, everyone was happy. I deeply believed that Trump was running as a joke to get his mate Hillary elected (They were 100% connected and close in the 90s)

    Then I woke up at 6am… Trump had won… he made a lot of weird choices but none of them affected me because I’m not an American.

    Then Biden got elected, That “crazy old man” pulled you out of the COVID recession faster than anyone… But that loss broke something in Trumps brain… Trump wasn’t funny anymore, he was now an insane lunatic using the left and the right media to give him all the power.

    Billionaires got richer, everyone else in the US and the world lost…

    And the media got to kept pretending that it’s white people vs everyone else… I’m a white man and if I was in control… I would only to take Jeff Bezos, the head of Blackrock, Elon Musk, and the heads of Adobe, HP and every other industry leader and string them up by their fingers in a cold dark cell.

    I’m not in control, I’m just trying to point out how corrupt your media are… They don’t care about your race, they don’t care about your religion… They want you to fight you neighbors of any race so the the medias owners (the billionaires) can get rich off your outage.

    It’s so insane to me that the CIA will burst through my door at 2am and help me tie up my hands and shoot myself in the head to commit suicide… I assume at 3am



  • Microsoft had Windows 95, Windows XP and Windows 7. Microsoft have a lot of things that they bought then destroyed… Go Google Microsoft acquisitions Here

    Look how many of those companies and software no longer exist.

    Now my company is moving to Windows 11, I see all these problems and bugs because Microsoft company-wide actually don’t understand the product that they support.

    Go to your windows computer, go into the settings, dive deep into the settings… The older the UI looks the more likely it’s going to be actually in control of your computer.



  • If I’m awake late at night, thinking of an uncomfortable conversation I need to have with someone I can have an entire conversation with them in my head knowing mostly how they’ll reply and the best response to it.

    I guess it’s like I’m two people talking 1 is me the other is me with that other person’s personality.

    Other times it’s like my anxiety is giving me a hidden vision to scare me slightly at the look of my phone on the edge of the table falling over, and I instantly decide to move it. I guess that part is why I’m afraid of heights, cause my Anxiety tells me I’m going to fall. Also why I can’t watch Horror movies, my anxiety latches onto those gruesome deaths and spends decades reminding me of it when I’m in a similar looking area.
