CrowdStrike to vendors: Sorry for the global tech outage. Here’s a $10 Uber Eats voucher
  • Fucking laughable.

    I guestimate that IT people at my day job had to pull an additional 20+ hours in a week each.

    I haven't heard if that got any gift cards but it wouldn't equate to the morale hit or OT pay hit (if anyone was hourly).

  • 'It is time for this war to end,' Harris tells Netanyahu; 'I will not be silent' on Palestinian suffering
  • I was going to vote Dem no matter what.

    But I have multiple friends who weren't, solely because of Israel-Palestine (they weren't voting trump either, they were either going to abstain or write-in...useless)

    But this has turned them around and, at least in my small circle, is meaningful.

    Fingers crossed.

  • Nearly 40K new voters registered in 48 hours after Biden’s exit
  • I will admit I was wrong.

    At first I was like noooooo, then when he endorsed Kamala I was like, oh god nooooooo...but I'll eat my words. I'm excited and happy with the outcome so far and, regardless, was voting dem anyway.

    Like, maybe I'm speaking too soon, but I almost feel...a modicum of hope again?

  • The Terminator returns to theaters with 4K transfer...Will AI ruin another James Cameron film?
  • I'd love to read more studies on the Christopher Nolan thing. I have trouble hearing anyone talk day to day, even when looking at them directly. Anyone with an accent, my brain immediately can't make sense of it.

    I'm not trying to be mean, the dialog just becomes gibberish and I don't know why. Even if I buckle down and watch their mouth and focus, I can't decipher things.

    But I had zero issues with Inception. My wife wasn't so lucky. For the first time in forever I was telling her what was said.

  • Your Southwest flight arrived on time.
  • At my org the security is so heavy that it's a multi-step, multi-tier fix (meaning the one Helpdesk person has to escalate, the first tier that gets it has one password but not the other, that has to go to second tier, etc.)

    They announced weekend hours all weekend on Friday and given we're talking tens of thousands of potentially impacted systems, my guess is it absolutely won't be done by Monday. That doesn't necessarily mean business is dead in the water, but it's definitely more chaotic and slow moving.

  • everywhere I go
  • Typo'd property names when accessing was the biggest one. Assuming a property was one data type instead of another and not casting or handling it appropriately. Accidentally calling something like it's a method when it isn't.

    I ran a bunch of plugins on my end to help with some of that, but many of the older or stubborn devs refused and would refuse anything but, like, vim with no add-ons.

  • Pixel Watch & Fitbit HR sync

    Is this the right community for this?

    Had my Pixel Watch 2 since October 13th, been wearing it regularly since then, daily HR data is visible on the watch, but only Oct 13, 18, 19, and 22 will sync on the app.

    I've tried clearing cache on both ends, issuing a manual sync multiple ways, force closing, removing updates and adding them back, directly viewing specific days in other areas of the app to maybe force an update, uninstall/reinstall, re-pair, etc.

    The data still shows on watch but won't sync to the phone.

    Is this normal? What am I missing?

    edit: So if I uninstall the Fitbit app and reinstall it each day, it seems to sync that day so far. But won't if I don't. Kind of annoying but it'll suffice for now...

    edit 2: never mind, that only worked once...I jumped the gun.

    edit 3: I factory reset everything, created a brand new Fitbit account, etc. and it still isn't syncing HR data. The watch also only lasted 5.5 hours off the charger today with always on and location off. I'm honestly kind of bummed, I really like the size, but I'm likely going back to my previous smartwatch unless this magically starts working well in a couple days. I tried contacting support and was basically just told to do everything I've already done, so that's fun.

    Will Signal ever support this? If not, is there a recommended alternative that is equally secure and does?
