  • I use it 5 days a week for work and don’t have connectivity problems.

    These issues are company wide and are not unique to me. I would switch isp providers if that would solve the issue. It’s bad enough that if you want a new computer you just talk to tech support about the issues and they’ll send you a new one since they can’t fix it (not that the new laptops work any better with teams)

    Works well? In relation to what? Carrier pigeons? Did you forget the /S ?

    The only thing I’ve seen it do well is share recorded videos almost immediately.

    It doesn’t even send messages as you’d expect. It’ll show sent on your side but the other person never gets it

    Someone calls and it rings, but the answer button has a 50% chance of not being there so you can’t actually join unless it’s a group call and then you can after it rings for 30 seconds and you don’t even know who called unless they ping you saying they’re calling

    Sharing your screen takes a few tries occasionally and sometimes requires you to rejoin the call

    Notifications? What notifications. They work so rarely it’s become a habit to manually check every few minutes

    And it opens docs in teams!? Who wants that hot garbage

    And the freezing! It regularly freezes for 20 seconds when doing anything in it

    I’d gladly take Skype over the garbage that teams is

    And if that wasn’t bad enough, it’s apparently such trash that it triggers me when someone has anything nice to say about teams. Sorry 😅



  • Owner occupancy won’t go up. Landlords are already occupying a place.

    As far as passing the cost goes, it won’t be. Rent is already as high as it can be and will continue to go up as long as our regulations allow this artificial shortage to be maintained. See The End Hedge Fund Control of American Homes Act as an example.

    As far as the damage goes, it’s pretty much counted on by landlords. Anything they do on the property counts as a tax deduction and the repairs are usually half asses at best. See “landlord special”.

    And, in particular, the poorer renters have a massive incentive to take care of the place, as any unpaid damage gets them kicked off of housing assistance.

    Furthermore, the law doesn’t blindly allow any and all pets for any reason. AB 2216 will require landlords to have reasonable reason(s) for not allowing a pet in a rental unit and only allows landlords to ask about pet ownership after a tenant’s application has been approved.

    I think this is a good change overall. Landlords shouldn’t be allowed to tell their tenants how to live their lives.



  • Visual studio and visual studio code are not the same thing. Visual Studio is a full IDE and is expected to have those features and is clunky because of them. Or was, not sure where it is now. It’d be in the same category as netbeans, eclipsed, and intellij

    Vs code is an enhanced lightweight text editor

    Notepad++ is the original enhanced lightweight text editor

    My point was that Notepad++ came out way before vs code and didn’t copy features from vs code.

    Copied from an ide, sure? Not really a good comparison as they are solving two different problems
