Programmer Humor@programming.dev•The URL shortener that makes your links look as suspicious as possible
2·9 days agoYeah I get the idea in that sense. It’s just that you are putting a lot of trust in the source. But I guess that’s the same with qr codes but at least you get to see the destination in your camera view.

23·10 days agoYeah, I’ve never understood the URL shortener idea. It’s like a box of chocolates. You just never know what you’re going to fudge into next.

3·1 month agoI donn’t believe this is true. Microsoft is known for trotting out garbage that nobody wants. Sometimes they back off. Sometimes they beat us down until we fall in line.
I suspect an assortment of realities that include individual partnerships on the boards, bribes, kickbacks, and more blitz style manipulation to “ensure” LG that people want this, and of course there is also the realization that they will make bank before people realize they’re getting bamboozled.
Apparently performs as router and firewall distro. I have no idea what possessed me to install that at the time over 10 years ago. But in any case, bad on me for blindly trusting an unknown source and bad on them for a dick shit design.
But I know one thing is for sure, that name is pretty accurate. A lot of my own “IP” was torched.
During my distro hopping phase of 2011, I tried out a distro called IP Fire. It wiped out my whole drive on boot.
I still have that laptop, hoping one day I’ll retrieve that data.
That is a shitty design and for an outfit a big as Microsoft, I feel that it is intentional

2·1 month agoI’ve always despised their naming schemes. I always thought I’d they ever started a car company they’d name their vehicle make as “car”.
At least Xbox is original but now I’m sitting here wondering if they bought it off a small outfit

1·1 month agoGood explanation. I’d say that’s still a lot of processing for our noggins to quickly adapt to a framework of mind to comprehend all that to make sense of it.
I still like the name and it does make since after it’s all spelled out.

No LSP? I have to look this up!
