Where is there often lag when opening the the right-click menu in Windows 11? Man, this OS sucks.

While still overall healthy, jobless claims have definitely edged up in the past 2 weeks. My guess is we will see more evidence towards the end of March and certainly later this year.

U.S. unemployment numbers will be dragged in Feb. 2025 by approximately 55,000 newly unemployed, due to federal employee and federal contractor layoffs. There is still a possibility for a net increase in jobs for Feb. 2025, but it's expected to be substantially smaller than the previous estimate.

So Musk is literally leveraging his work in DOGE to force organizations to advertise on Twitter. The U.S. is getting close to Russian levels of corruption.

In AWS, why isn't there a security group that allows you to allow inbound traffic from CloudFront? This should be easy. Instead, you have to create a stupid ass Lambda function.

Only Fox News would say that fighting between the U.S. and Canada is a positive.

I can confirm this is the current behavior of AppLocker. I really, really wish it wasn't.

"Why would anyone ever want to store even a small file in 1Password?" UPDATE: Nevermind, I get it now! This has made my life and my team's life so much easier.

Gonna be a no from me, dawg.

Does anyone know anyone on the AppLocker team? It seems that it's impossible to allowlist bundled packaged apps?

"I just need to see a log." AWS: "Whoa there, little buddy. Log files ain't cheap! We can't just show you something like that on the screen! Get a bucket!" *makes bucket* AWS: "You can't just write to a bucket! Securritay! Write a JSON file to give correct permissions to the service!"

I fucking hate AWS.

"Why would anyone choose an alternative to AWS?" Because everything in AWS is painful. Yes, you can see your destination, but you're going to have to take a lot of one-way toll roads to get there.

Let's be honest. Here's how the budget showdown is gonna go: 1. Democrats will try to leverage the situation to get their demands on the table. 2. The American people will MYSTERIOUSLY forget why the Democrats are doing this. 3. The Democrats will capitulate as per usual.

Trump said he doesn't have to comply with federal court orders. We are now in a constitutional crisis. Right this minute.

an unelected billionaire storming into US agencies, installing his unqualified and unapproved lackeys, purging civil servants, seizing access to sensitive data and payments, unilaterally eliminating federal agencies: fine identifying the lackeys: illegal

Predictable: Fox News is spinning the turmoil between the U.S. and Canada as a positive.

I feel like Bluesky, and how it's designed, is going to be more important to Americans in 180 days than it is today.

Fox News is not covering the tariffs at all. 100% chance that MAGA voters don't even know that they're implemented.

What is the name of the (new) feature that lets Windows and Windows Server communicate point-to-point using Kerberos (instead of NTLM), without a domain controller? I can't find it now and I swear it's real. Cc @nedpyle.com @syfuhs.net
