In-reply-to » you need to send an email @quark if you want an account. I know that might be very profitable. Maybe Odo can disclose it if I give him a new bucket.

@sorenpeter@darch.dk a poem about me giving Odo a free bucket:

A glint in his eye, a sly, Ferengi grin,
Quark crossed the promenade, a curious thing within.
No jeweled trinket, no weapon so grand,
But a simple pail held tight in his hand.

Odo, the Constable, with a brow raised high,
“A bucket, Quark? What trickery do you try?”
The Ferengi huckster, with a salesman’s flair,
“A gift, my friend, a constable’s rare!”

“For those late-night spills, a morphing mishap,
This bucket, dear Odo, will catch every scrap.
And should a suspect turn to goop and flee,
This pail’s the answer, a guarantor, you see!”

Odo’s lips twitched, a hint of a smile,
At Quark’s twisted logic, his mercantile style.
“Perhaps,” he conceded, the bucket held tight,
“A useful addition, in the pursuit of right.”

So Quark made his sale, with a wink and a nod,
A bucket for Odo, a Ferengi oddity, odd.
But on Deep Space Nine, where chaos takes hold,
Even a pail can be worth more than gold.

About the account, thanks, but I already have way too many. :-D

@bender ha! He goes his “poem”:

A string of letters, a forgotten name,
An email crafted, a message to claim.
We hit send with a click, a hopeful sigh,
But a bounce-back arrives, a tear in our eye.

“Delivery failed,” the message reads cold,
The address it seems, is a story untold.
A ghost in the system, a memory’s trace,
Lost in the void of cyberspace.

:-D

He will not see this, so it seems. That twt was pretty much a telegram, without sender address. LOL.

@prologic@twtxt.net You’re right, but they’re not going to stop until people vote with their wallets.

@bender@twtxt.net I’m not suggesting that people should use an old Windows version to avoid this. I’m saying that Windows in general should be considered a legacy operating system, and continued usage will only make you subject to more of this tracking and unnecessary garbage.

In other words, the situation will never improve. It will only get worse from here, so you might as well get out now while there are still plenty of life boats. Otherwise, when they do something that’s really over the line, you either have to go along with it or dive right into the cold ocean.

Windows is only kept alive at this point by a lack of knowledge about the alternatives, apathy, fear, and some enterprise software and games with support in Wine improving by the day.

@mckinley@twtxt.net which one would you call a legacy operating system? If referring to a previous Microsoft Windows OS, it will not be legacy for long. Granted, it might during our lifetime, but I tend to look (and often worry) a bit further.

Nem sou muito de embirrar com problemáticas de linguagem de género, mas estava aqui a ver na TV o resumo do Lyon - Benfica para a Women’s Champions League, e a pensar…

Há qualquer coisa de errado na expressão “Liga dos Campeões Feminina”. 🤨

@mckinley@twtxt.net Well yes, true, but not my primary point. Microsoft really needs to pull their head out of their ass. Toyota, BMW, Samsung and even Apple to some extent. Companies need to understand a basic economic rule: If a customer buys your product X, they really don’t expect to have to pay for (useless) service Y in order to use product X. I’m looking at you BMW and Toyota, both have attempted to do this and somewhat failed at a consumer level. I wonder why 🤦‍♂️

Now Microsoft?! C’mon. For fuck’s sake. If I buy a new “today” computer of some kind. I expect to be able to use it “offline” if I want. I’m not going to be forced into paying for a subscription or handing over all my personal information to some stupid tech company that has no business whatsoever treating me as “their product”.
