Lately I’m more and more disappointed in EU legislations. Especially having to live with them…
I always read those as somehow so I’m now stumped by “SMDH”. It’s starting to sound like a bondage thing.
If the intended reader is a regular person just use normal words, even if it’s not 100 % accurate.
Jones exited the air lock in his space suit but the control system flagged an error with life support or water flow
All three ways don’t mean much to me as an outsider, but the last one at least paints a somewhat understandable picture.
I do like me some good prawns from time to time.
Notification syncing between devices is nonexistent in Teams and there are no conversation threads.
In general teams is way more buggy with worse UX. I don’t know if it’s a thing on Teams that our workplace disabled, but there’s no decent notification management. If I take a day off, I can set my notifications in Slack as mute for that day and I can manage notifications for messages vs mentions vs mute per channel.
On Teams I can’t permanently set Enter as new line, I have to click that rich text editor icon for every single message.
On mobile Teams started doing this thing in group chats where, if I move the cursor with drag on space gesture and then move it back to the end of the message, Teams interprets this as a desire to “attach a program”, like power apps (whatever that is).
Pasting in code block also gets me every time. I’ll start a code block in Teams window, go to another window, copy the text and click back on my code block. Teams just drops the cursor to the end of message outside my code block and by the time I notice I already hit ctrl+v
.
My last pet peeve is about formatted copy pasting and applies to Slack as well but Teams having more text formatting options shows more of an impact. Never, and I repeat, NEVER have I wanted to paste anything with formatting, especially if I grabbed it form a website, word, excel, pdf or a code editor. Why is it the default and nonnegotiable? I can change the default on Libre Office, why not on Teams? It’s a chat app why would I need headings like in a regular doc?
Every time it gets me, ctrl+c
, ctrl+v
, fuck ctrl+z
, ctrl+shift+v

Tried salt and vinegar once, they were horrible
I scored 10/28 on https://jsdate.wtf/ and all I got was this lousy text to share on social media.
Never had curlies, tots (not even sure what they are) or waffle fries.
After reading the comments I think I’ve never had good onion rings or sweet potato fries. Those are a no from me. Onion rings were just deep fried batter and sweet potato was sweet and soggy. Both didn’t leave an impresion.
Now my potato of choice is wedges (especially if cooked in an oven). Then whatever is left. Not sure why everyone is hating on zigzags. The thickness is similar to straight fries so it should cook similarly and without seasoning everything will taste bland.
I rarely find good use for a semicolon sadly.
Lithuanian. We do have composite words, but we use vowels, if necessary, as connecting sounds. Otherwise dashes usually signify either dialog or explanations in a sentence (there’s more nuance, of course).
My language doesn’t really have hyphenated words or different dashes. It’s mostly punctuation within a sentence. As such there are almost no cases where one encounters a dash without spaces.
Am I… AI? I do use ellipses and (what I now see is) en dashes for punctuation. Mainly because they are longer than hyphens and look better in a sentence. Em dash looks too long.
However, that’s on my phone. On a normal keyboard I use 3 periods and 2 hyphens instead.
One day I’ll win, you all will see!
I just need to compose my will to get up. Then it’s coffee brewing ritual.
