River Berumen ◯ The council is in session
I feel like I'm the last person alive writing in Word, but wanted to share this because it might save someone some heartache.
I am used to Word autosaving relentlessly; for the last few years it didn't really even have a "File>Save" command that I could see--it just autosaved like every five seconds or something. It took me a long time to get used not clicking File>Save at the end of every writing session, and I never really trusted it--with good reason, it turns out.
Apparently, when you turn off Word's new ai features, AutoSave is disabled and cannot be turned back on. There is toggle button in the upper left for it, but when I try to toggle it on, it says "Autosave is not available because of your privacy settings." I worked in my document yesterday, put my computer to sleep with the doc still open on the taskbar (my usual habit), and when I opened it today, the new work I did yesterday was gone.
This time I only lost about 300 words, which I had typed into my document from my longhand-writing in a notebook (so I guess I kind of autosaved them that way!), but if I'd really been on a roll, this could have been a disaster.
Be careful out there. Everything is terrible!
Yeah, they're baking it into essential compontents now so we'll stop turning it off. Noticed that in several programs. FFS I hate all of these tech bros.
A fun thing about fiction with large casts of characters is that sometimes you'll have a Spicy Bananas moment where every single character has an identical yet wildly atypical experience of some very mundane thing, and slowly you realise that the author isn't Making A Point, they just think that's normal.
how do i explain to non brazillians that theres a guy in the new season of a reality show who spent weeks rubbing his shirt in his girlfriends armpits just so he could sniff it while he was in the program. then started crying and this girl just pulls out the shirt for him to sniff and calm down. the last romantic on earth
sometimes you just gotta listen to music at a volume that you know will be part of the cause of your hearing loss at the age of 28
hey yall. im 25 now and i already have tinnitus <3 dont do this. LOL
oh btw for those saying “i already have tinnitus haha it cant get worse” YEAH IT CAN BITCH! if you want to listen to music loud do it on speakers at least. headphones will Beam Pain Waves Directly Into Your Cochlear Hair Cells and a 10kHz Tone Loud Enough Will Give You Psychic Damage Forever
if i have to fucken, translate it to something you’ll understand? Imagine theres a picture of garfield here saying
YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE TO HEARING LOSS
the problem with musicians is how they're always touring their latest album instead of like their critically hated second album from 2009 which is the one i'm obsessed with
a "teacher's pet" is a class traitor that has betrayed their peers (other students) to receive favors from the oppressor class
don't neglect your female blorbos. put HER in the torment nexus. give HER some old lady yuri. ship HER with everyone under the sun
More people should be aware of how much money the American far right funnels into American propaganda in Canada
It's also important to know that most of the newspapers in Canada are owned by an American hedge fund with ties to the republican party
The US spends a loooooot of money to show propaganda to Canadians!
