RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW

Well, it seems to be a technology fail week.
I emailed a software developer to tell them about a pretty significant bug. After some back and forth they decided it is my computer (it isn't) and told me to "go to Geek Squad." Does Geek Squad even exist anymore?
And now, I just called "tech support" because I couldn't get a (different and unrelated) video conferencing software to work. They had never heard of Linux, didn't know what a log is, didn't know what the cloud is, didn't know what a URL is...🤨
I'm not sure if I am on candid camera or in a parllel universe but it's quite frustrating and I still can't use either one.
