Yeah and you'd think it would be a simple enough concept like "male and female" cables. But we aren't even having sex anymore so maybe that's to blame 😂

This is how the Desktop Mode looks in #GrapheneOS. Here you can see how some apps look. Below is a screenshot of me typing this post in Amethyst and two instances of Vanadium on different profiles (Private Spaces) demonstrating unique VPN connections to the same applications on the same workspace.

Here is how the apps resize.

This will continue to be improved in the Android 16 QPR2 based release of GrapheneOS on the way and possibly be available outside of a developer option in Android 17.

This is the third time I read the word "borked" today and Im ok with that.

I just noticed that a number of my posts went out a bunch of times. Sorry to anyone I spammed.

Enterprising young bucks we were. I managed to make a few bills "fixing" computers for people in my grandfather's florida condo. It was a gold mine, once per year Id clear out all the spam shit they had going on and run lowkey virus scans and clear caches, shit like that. People love peeling off 20s for that kind of stuff.

I was the first kid with a computer in my neighborhood and was tech support from the age of basically 7.

I remember when I was like 9 years old I figured out how to hook our n64 up to our old ass tv that didn't have a component input but at this very old like y-fram screw in thing because I found an old adapter of that type from some old video camera we had in the garage and my mom thought I was a genius.

We've literally just been plugging things into the things where it fits or matches the color for decades now.

this one still gets me to this day... i replaced all of the computers at a law firm once. it was done after hours. it took me all evening. i was proud when it was done. new desktops, new laptops, everything worked with their existing infrastructure, etc. i went to bed exhausted sometime after midnight. i got a phone call at 7am because a woman said he computer wouldn't work. i was freaking out because she was one of the partner's secretaries and had been there since time began. she was also a very nice lady that i always enjoyed talking to. so i quickly showered and rushed in there.

i get there and one of the partners sees me in the hallway and essentially berates me because his secretary is unable to do her job and she has work to do.

the issue was none of her desktop icons were in the order that they were previously in on her old computer

she would start her day and go down the line of icons from far left top to bottom clicking on law program 1, law program 2, law program 3, email, internet.

i don't remember the order i had them in. all i knew was that all of her law programs were there and automatically signed in like she requested and all data was there.

i would have never thought she would be unable to use her computer because the icons were out of order.

she panicked because icons were not where she wanted them to be and was literally unable to do her job.

i think i learned very quickly right then and there that sometimes people panick and their brains shut off when it comes to technology and things they don't understand.

I don't remember that. But I don't remember much thanks to the amount of substance abuse I engaged in at the time and number of years.

I do know I was homeless and unemployed shortly after my ISP stint and still refused to even consider jobs where I answered a phone and talked to end users.

Yeah. I was told maybe I shouldn't come to work sober again by my boss. I'd rather work shovelling cow and horse shit again.

just bought a $350 printer so i can print a shipping label to return a $19 item on Amazon

I once had a support call with the Dean of the College I was working at, he had like 2 doctorates. He called because he moved his office phone to a different jack in the room. When I got there, instead of plugging the handset to the phone then phone to the wall, he had plugged the handset directly to the wall 🤦‍♂️

I, hand to your preferred deity, took an "I can't get on the internet" call at an ISP where the cause was a power outage.

They were on a land line phone and their mind was blown that wired telephones didn't get their power from your household electric. Determined that since the phone and computer both get plugged into phone lines they should both work.

Yeah, I know. I've outed myself as being old as fuck before.
