    Like it’s just resume fodder for them?

    I’m guessing that’s it. Or maybe using their signature as commercials? 🤔

    But all of this is if you at all find a page where an actual person has asked a question. Most results on Google when searching an bsod error code is a number of pages spouting the same tired answers that doesn’t actually work.

    I recently had the misfortune of trying to fix a problem on my kids windows computer and it’s striking the difference between Linux and windows forums.

    A Linux forum:
    “RTFM but here’s four commands that will fix your problem plus fix a bunch of things you didn’t even know you had a problem with”

    A windows forum:
    "My name is Mr Anderson and has been awarded high quality question answerer three years running plus best cut lawn by the HOA. I am not affiliated in any way with Microsoft so don’t go running to them if you mess up your computer.

    Here is fifty eleven things to click on that is highly dependent on the language set on the computer and which is likely changed by Microsoft since I wrote this. The instructions are also highly general and in no way specific for your actual problem."


  • “Det funkade så bra med Gmail och Facebook…”.
    Jag tror tror att det var mycket det faktiskt och att Google då glömde att både Gmail och Facebook var distinkt annorlunda från varandra. Med Gmail kunde man kommunicera med andra som har mail och Facebook var begränsad geografiskt vilket gjorde att man ändå kunde procentuellt känna många där.
    Men med G+ så började man helt på noll. Det var inte ens som Lemmy nu där folk kan söka sig till liknande grupper som på Reddit.
