I haven’t signed into anything work related on my phone since we switched to Google.

Anything work requires goes on my tablet.

Yesterday I read on here that Microsoft doesn’t let their teams use Teams.

According to Gabe Newell, something like 90% of steam users were both on 1/1/99 (might be fudging the numbers somewhat but presumably you get the idea).

'Cause Lemmy.

Until I actually got to the link, I thought it was going to be Technology Connections.

Same!

Haha, nice.

Funnily enough I’ve been talking to people a lot about screw types recently. My wife was taking some hardware out of the house and cursing the varied kinds of screws used during installation; a friend and co-worker has been obsessed with the varieties ever since I met him; and my six year old found some of the screws dropped by my wife and asked why they were different.

I like the PlayStation stylized screw much more.

Personally it kinda reminds me of that tool they use to open toilet paper containers in some public restroom stalls.

I played Forager a lot when my kid was new. I enjoyed the fairly engaging gameplay and the newborn liked all the colors, shapes and sounds.

I also sympathize with the latter half of your post. I was only promised a small amount of paternity leave but, very shortly before my kid was born, my company was purchased by another company that only offered paternity leave to employees who had been there for more than a year. At the time I had been there nine months (I have now been there seven years). I was pissed. Fortunately my direct manager was understanding and gave me a reduced workload for a while.

Right - I think the difference is that, when using a fob, you’re likely within line of sight or at least nearby your car and so presumably could observe or otherwise check for car occupants, but so long as your car and phone both have reception you can use the app from anywhere without any clue who might be in or around the car.

I used to have a Tesla (traded it in). In the app you could open, but not close, the windows. It could be inconvenient at times but I assume the reasoning was similar.

And, as a bonus, any ghosts or demons therein!

And can be configured to only communicate within your network.

In EverQuest there was a character named Canloe Nusback who would accept endless amounts of Crushbone resources in a repeatable quest and so who was commonly used for grinding.

It was popular to call him “Camel Nutsack.” Once, I told someone in OOC chat that he was “fondly” referred to as such and someone else said that they’d never talked about a nutsack fondly. The exchange stuck with me, apparently for two and a half decades. Thus, your username reminds me of that conversation and, subsequently, the character and game.

I mean, for at least the first five letters, I can’t even tell the difference.

Every time I see you, your username reminds me of EverQuest.

I think I’ve brought it up before.

I think you’ve just neatly summarized, uh …

… The world (such as we’ve incentivized it, anyway).
