Yep, flying Sydney to Perth occasionally passes over Adelaide and I’ll notice my phone change Timezone to Adelaide and get a notification or two come through

If I “download” music for offline listening in Spotify, in the highest possible quality, and I attempt to listen to that music on a unstable network, the app will not work. It will wait for me to completely lose the connection before playing the cached files. Have noticed similar bugs existing in other software

Yeah sorry but that excuse “because of the economy” feels like a half finished sentence. What exactly “the economy” do they mean? The sentence would make just us much sense if they said “because the moon”

Sydney; was able to join a call on my phone that someone requested me to join, but I cannot open the app on desktop at all.

And I’m guessing I still can’t change how emails are sorted in 2022.

If backend services are written in TS (instead of JS) then you'll need to compile to run it. Be that TSC or webpack with ts-loader, you'll need something to perform that step. I don't think anyone is running ts-node outside of local dev environments.

Crazy thing about a bill is that if it passes, then it will happen, just like the parent is suggesting should happen.

Something sounds horribly wrong here. It should be cheaper when using your own router (aside from the once off cost to buy the router)

What horrible things are they doing with that router that they would effectively pay you $20/month to use it for

Given another RCE bug was found in the intel graphics driver, easiest speculation would probably suggest the graphics driver. Also apple doesn't usually refer to them as drivers, so that's probably adding confusion too.

I’m a big fan of LFP don’t get me wrong, but it still requires mining and refining lithium, which indeed does fuck over the environment quite badly

If the best they can supply is an online exam document that literally contains answers in the html document, then maybe paper exams should come back while they think about what they’ve done and try again later

Handful of states and territories in Australia are doing this, and while I like the idea I haven't found a single person who has returned their bottles (including myself), instead just absorbed the additional cost into their expenses.

In this case I mean, VDI has existed for literally decades now. Are we supposed to congratulate MS for doing what every other cloud provider did more than 10 years ago?

Lipstick on a pig

So MS sells a solution to a problem they caused? fantastic, whats new.

I'm going to guess that fastmail has blocked you lol

My email address reachability is "unknown", its a fastmail hosted account. Quite a commonly used service.

Is an unknown classification supposed to be treated as "I don't know, probably safe" or "I don't know, probably don't accept it" ?

This is the way

Honestly I burst out laughing at that quote. I'm sure many devs here can attest to the wild ideas that come out of after work beers that often end up being hilariously useful.

Not to mention it only goes one-way. If you destroy the service that created all those others, it won't clean those others up.

For me its currently over two years, not 90 days

Hahah yeah I say the same thing every month "yeah okay go ahead and do it then"

I have to imagine that these things are manual and a human has to do it, so they'll sort it by the size of the account and do what matters

> DigitalOcean is the worst with the dormant accounts. Just got dinged around $2.40 on my credit card. Going into DO I could not find what was causing that charge. There was nothing there. Wuuuttttt.

Oh I used to get this, for me it was snapshots of a VPS I destroyed. Completely my fault, but yeah it was annoying to figure out at the time. Probably worth checking you don't have any reserved IPs, disk backups or snapshots left over

I cancelled an account 2 years ago because no matter how much I explored cost manager or any regions I used, I can't find why I still get billed a small dollar or so a month.

I still get bills on the 3rd of each month, followed by a "we can't charge your card" (I removed it when they pulled this shit) followed by a few days later you get the "hey we're gonna suspend your account if you don't pay"

Yeah cool, I only closed the account 2 years ago now, go right ahead and suspend/close/do whatever you've gotta do, I stopped caring.

It blew my mind the other day when work gave us one of Apple's hdmi/usb/charge multiport adapters, that it could power 4k60 and a USB3 port without using thunderbolt under the hood. It was my understanding its either 4k60 with no usb, or 4k30 with usb. I'm assuming its using this newfangled HBR3 under the hood, or perhaps it actually is using thunderbolt secretly.

PC versions of CoD do this, and switching between mode on a 360 was always kinda slow so I could definitely believe its doing something similar

I tried this years ago. Lets just say cars have a very unique set of constraints that general purpose dev boards will not survive.

I had no idea this was a thing, is there any justification at all for this behavior? Sounds like a massive dealbreaker to me.
