  • I appreciate it! I once spent 6 hours on hold waiting for support, so unfortunately I'm too familiar.

  • The ending is a dead giveaway. There's essentially no email signature, and communications with MS support have the agent's name in the signature, not a generic team name.

    Additionally, there's no ticket number. If they had investigated the account and billing history, there would be an associated ticket, a link to said ticket, and verbage about whether or not responding to the email would go on the ticket. A lot of that is handled automatically by contacting them if done electronically.

    It's also just not written like a support email from them, which I get is a bit more of a nebulous tell.

  • I would; it's just words.

    Can't really resist if you're dead or in a murder camp.

  • It's not a legitimate support email

  • That's just not true at all. Plenty of products are hyped where the value is self-evident; it's just advertising.

    People have to know about your product to use it.

  • What happens next is Nintendo amends the patent application and tries again until they finally accept it.

  • How fucking big are your dandruff flakes? That sounds horrifying.

  • Tuya devices are extremely sketchy. The only reason you should buy one is if you're going to flash it with Tasmota.

    Otherwise it should go in the trash ASAP.

  • I don't think it's unreasonable to expect some fulfillment from something you spend like 36% of your awake time doing.

  • Great point!

  • Not really. Billionaires don't have a checking account with billions of dollars in it that they stole from their workers. The vast majority of their wealth is locked in non-liquid investment vehicles. If they actually tried to cash those in at once, they'd only get a fraction of that wealth.

    The big problem is banks will loan them money based on those non-liquid assets and it's not taxed as income.

  • We can definitely support the current population sustainably. The issue has never been resource shortage, it's resource distribution.

    Well, the main issue is profits, and equitable distribution of resources isn't profitable.

  • You can build your own in Home assistant using esphome with an esp32 dev board, a linear servo, and a piece of fabric that works on touch screens.

    It's really not as complicated as it sounds, and if you're wanting to get into smart home stuff, HA is the way to go.

  • It would have probably been a lot cheaper to fix the lock, then issue a new challenge.

    Even if he beats the new one, it's still better marketing than a petty lawsuit.

  • I'd suggest keeping 2 accounts if you want to play the market. One that's stable for most of your investment money, and one to play around with.

  • I think some grinding is fine, such as for crafting resources and such.

    But like you said, it's often excessive.

  • Human population numbers are fine. There are more than enough resources to sustainably support us, but distributing those resources isn't profitable so it isn't done.

  • But reruns have always been a thing

  • I'd give out vouchers for getting stray cats fixed. We have a huge problem with feral cat colonies.
