I don’t even have a “Security and Privacy”, just a “Privacy Settings”, and then in there I don’t see anything about Reset Advertising Id, just something like “Advertising Preferences” that has “Allow Outlook to s hare data to show you more relevant ads”.

I think likely what I would have to do is add a personal email account to outlook, and then pay for a subscription on that, to get it to hide ads for my work email - but I don’t really want to have to add a second email, I just want it for my work email, and then ideally I’d just pay through Play Store or whatever, but they don’t even allow that.

Oh well. Maybe one day I will stop being lazy and find another email client that works well with my work email and has busy hours etc.

Yes, pretty much. It looks the same as regular unread emails except they identify them with “Ad”. It’s distracting and annoying and you can’t remove it.

Mint is fully community-owned which is why I’m interested in it, I don’t want companies dictating and controlling how the OS should work.

Canonical is the manufacturer of Ubuntu.

Personal install from Playstore. I added my work email to Outlook on my personal phone, and I have it ignore notifications entirely outside of working hours. It works pretty great but there’s no way to remove the ads because it’s a work email, and the ads look like unread emails. It’s horrible and I can’t even do anything about it.

Even Canada doesn’t have that implemented, I wouldn’t count on that any time soon. In Canada, your wife could cut off your finger and cheat on you then file for divorce, then you’d have to give her half of your house (even if it was your childhood home you fully owned long before your marriage) and pay her alimony if you make more than her. Also if you have kids, she’s very likely going to win custody of them.

It’s a bit fucked up lol

Except if trans people defend themselves with firearms, they should expect to have the book thrown at them. It’s not fair, it’s fucked up, but it’s something I could see happening.

Rules for thee, not for me.

I hate that the Outlook Android app has ads that appear like unread emails, and as far as I know you can’t remove them (at least if you’re using a company-provided email).

Directors are known for their valuable and unique skill sets, accountability, transparency, and sense of duty and responsibility. Of course it only makes sense for them to be paid well, duh.

I guess they don’t have a hippocratic oath over there.

Well, I was planning on looking into RealDebrid over my week off in winter, but I guess that’s done now, damn.

I’m going to switch to Mint from Ubuntu because I don’t trust Canonical, I would rather have the community controlling the distribution.

Food is the only physical addiction that you can’t quit for life or it will kill you. You don’t need beer or cocaine or meth to live, you can live a full happy life without any of those. You can’t live without food.

I use Xfce, as do most of my Linux friends, it’s lightweight and simple yet also very customizable.

Anyone who criticizes Netanyahu is immediately called antisemitic.

It’s honestly a pathetic shield to hide behind.

I think it’s easy to blame a company for how they are handling this, but at the same time, if you’re using a router that old you should probably already assume that it has vulnerabilities that haven’t and probably won’t be patched.

Except US is going to cut funding because Trump is a piece of shit, this isn’t new.

The bots have become sentient

I mean, nobody is forced to eat crickets lol

At what point did you realize The Onion and The Beaverton are two different websites?
