Gonna have to try this at least once
And we’re back to “dump everything into c/memes” again… Stop being lazy.
“Stop having fun!”
Is it only a meme if it is shared elsewhere before it is posted to a community about sharing memes? Is c/memes limited to sloppy seconds?
I get his argument. I personally don’t mind it, but people are trying to curate their feeds better. Memes should ideally be for memes.
This better belongs in whitepeopletwitter. Do we have one on Lemmy yet?
Unfortunately, both this community and the shitposts community allow people to post whatever, per the community rules. This one has no rule about what a meme is, and shitposting explicitly allows whatever.
I used to care too, but it’s just wasted effort.
Hehe
Microsoft office 👻
i HATE microsoft. am a software developer. but literally corporations make you use their shit. how could you even avoid it? having no job or something?
Have you never worked in an office before? IT doesn’t just let you install whatever you want on work machines.
We know alternatives exist… They’re not always available.
i’ve been using open office for decades. do you really think i hate microsoft but just needed to hear about open office? I’m talking about at work, like this fucking meme is referencing.
There are many software solutions but people just pretend they don’t exist. Herd mentality. If you water a plant it grows.
when YOUR JOB says, “here’s Outlook, fucking use it” what else can you do. did you even read what i wrote?
Has it gotten so bad that you have to send stuff to the manager to get it printed?
I’ve seen offices where only a few people were able to connect to the network printer and just ask people if they can print it.
Usually they’ve tries using flash drives but many large printers are also terrible at reading pdf files from them.
Edit: Should note that most of these people were smart and were able to follow instructions. However the big office printers can be an utter pain at times.
It’s amazing that the faster Ethernet gets and the more powerful network devices become, the fewer things we can do.
Why wouldn’t just about everyone get the ability to print on the device whose sole purpose is to print things? If everything is set up right, you can even set per-user policies so Jarrett doesn’t waste ink printing 50 AI pictures of kittens to hang in his soulless office cubicle.
I had a job where they disabled access to all printers. If you needed a hard copy, you had to email the document to the printer admins and they would print after reviewing it.
Similarly, they were too cheap to pay for zoom licenses so if you needed a meeting longer than 40 minutes, you had to email the zoom admins with the list of attendees and they would create it.
But getting a repeating zoom meeting scheduled was virtually impossible.
The general answer is every stupid rule was an over reaction to something.
And the owner runs it like a gas station and assumes everyone is stealing from the till.
I could see a small office where the printer is just directly attached to one person’s computer.
At my work it’s just an intranet with no outside email access. Only the store manager has that. You also are not allowed to plug in USBs to anything. So if you want something printed that was not emailed on the Interoffice mail, you have to email it to the store manager.
I guess you either work for a company with highly sensitive data, or the IT people are overdramatizing a tad bit.
I also believe that IT security is important, but it should remain reasonable.
Sounds to me like more of a power play by management than a sensible security concept.
They said store so I assume they work in retail. Why would a retail employee need a company email? And not allowing people to plug in USB sticks into an intranet (especially with POS machines) is just standard operating procedures.
