Product-thinking context-driven software tester, mostly working in agile environments. Disagreeable giver. What you want is probably not what you need.

Given that tech people know what happens when CPU is 100% and RAM is full and you're hitting the swap file, it's pretty weird how many places focus on keeping everyone busy and working on more things than they have teams for.

@JulianHillMP With a 9 seat majority in the lower house, Whitlam changed the lives of all Australians for the better, your government with a 50 seat majority panders to the gambling lobby and does nothing to increase Centrelink benefits for the poor and disadvantaged...Whitlam would be ashamed

The Trump video was at least partially AI. Has anyone seen him since Charlie Kirk’s shooting? The suspect is still at large, how deep does this go? 👁️

Thanks for the "free" McAfee install in Adobe Reader that will require me to reinstall Windows, @Adobe.

This is what I could see on my laptop prior to downloading (fullscreen, 100% zoom).

"Most trusted..."

I don't think so.

[Jared Quinert @xflibble]

@Adobe, you know what doesn't engender trust? Not knowing that your 'free' adobe reader is installing other stuff on my PC that I do not want and is notorious for being problematic. Attached is what I saw in my maximised, 100% zoom browser window when downloading.

[Jared Quinert @xflibble]

@Adobe, on what fucking planet do you think it's OK to install McAfee garbage on my laptop with the relevant info of what's 'included with your download' not even appearing in the browser (100% zoom)?

[Jared Quinert @xflibble]

@ptv_official There's a bug in your new gates at Glenferrie. It let me through the gates when I tapped my Android phone but did not register the tap ('moved too fast' error), so I was not touched on. Luckily I double checked and sorted it out.

Despite the miserable Sixers season, no regrets paying for @PHLY_Sports to support having access to @_devongivens without the gymnastics previously involved in getting the post-game US radio feed here in Australia.

@jensuedaw They're the government. They can legislate a change to media ownership laws whenever they like, and limiting foreign ownership would be a simple, populist move. Just revert the laws to what they were previously.

@NoemiTitarenco I'm commenting from the position that humans are already commoditised :)

[Jared Quinert @xflibble]

@NoemiTitarenco Which isn't good if it can't take an ethical position. It will just reinforce existing patterns and problems.

[Jared Quinert @xflibble]

@NoemiTitarenco I feel that the feeds people are getting served are quite different in and outside of the US (ie. I haven't needed to block much). But basically, Twitter was/is filtering out most of the people I follow who were posting to the degree it became pointless :-/

@SirTimRice Bluesky is cheaper and more fun.

[Jared Quinert @xflibble]

Has anyone else left? Still here tracking departures. Other app doing much better.

So in being too angry to pick up @NAB's calls after lodging my AFCA complaint, I missed out on their offer of $250 compensation. Oh well.

[NAB @NAB]

@xflibble I imagine this must be very frustrating and upsetting - If you change your mind and wish to chat about what has happened, please send through a DM ^RG

Welcome to all of my completely legit followers.

Am gradually exiting, have found most people elsewhere and am just here to watch people leave. I am xflibble on pretty much any platform that exists, that similarly coloured one to this is where I am mostly now.
