In 2000, Windows put itself in the trash.
That’s more or less the time I started using Linux.
The OG dumpster diver.
Whoever decided to give it a dedicated keybinding is insane
That actually exists? Mental
Press Ctrl + Shift + Alt + Win + L in Windows for Linkedin
This is by default, and I don't think there's an easy way to turn it off.
Wtf wild, just tried it. Thanks, I'll never use this.
LinkedIn - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + L
Word - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + W
Excel - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + X
PowerPoint - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + P
Outlook - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + O
Microsoft Teams - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + T
OneDrive - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + D
OneNote - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + N
Yammer - CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + WIN + Ywtf is a yammer?
I think it's like an internal social media for your Office 365 group. We have Yammer at work but I have never opened it.
Who the hell uses social media while at work that's limited to your work I wonder.
You better have all five fingers these days...
Feels like Emacs
Someone built a shortcut to a job hunting site into the OS itself. Someone who works on the OS and for the company that made the OS. I can't think of any greater advertisement that working for Microsoft is awful than the cry for help that is building a permanent link to a job hunting website.
I mean Microsoft owns the job hunting website lol
Holy shit, this is not even a joke
These ctrl shift alt win shortcuts are not meant to be doable manually, they're for dedicated buttons on certain keyboards. A manufacturer wanted a linked in button so Microsoft made that shortcut. However, the fact that they are baked in instead of somehow detecting if a keyboard needs that button in a different way is a little strange. It's like how the new copilot button uses a key combo with an F key higher than 12
Keyboards with physical F keys higher than 12 absolutely do exist tho.
This one's ancient, but I also have a slightly less old apple wireless keyboard that goes up to F19. IIRC goes up to a theoretical maximum of F64, but don't quote me on that.
I maintain a Linkedin account for business, so I look into the account once in a while to connect to certain people.
A while back, I went into the account settings to lock it down ... no notifications, alerts or announcements about anything .... a week later, I still get alerts about some dumb thing from this stupid site
Hey! LinkedIn is useful for me, I just got laid off. And two weeks prior to my lay off, I got reached out by one Rep asking me for meeting and we just met and they offered me a contract. So LinkedIn is pretty useful for networking.
it became round, turned around, turned back around, and became square again.
What do people use instead of LinkedIn? I'm OOTL
Nothing. As is, LinkedIn doesn't provide anything that most people actually need, so you're safe to ditch it.
I tripled my salary thanks to LinkedIn. Wasn't even looking, just incoming reach outs. It has made a huge difference in my life. Literally life changing.
Only reason I'm there. Barely missed a fat job a recruiter got me on. Oh well. She's still looking out for me.
Plus, they send loads of job offers. Never know when I'll win the lottery.
Unfortunately there really isn't a viable option for most people. Maybe there are alternatives depending on your field and your geographical location (I know they use something else a lot in Germany), but for most people you're really forced to use LinkedIn or you're potentially doing a huge disservice to your career.
Which is the main source of hatred for LinkedIn: most people would rather not be using it but they stay there for their careers. Others use it as a platform to promote their crazy ideas, again in an effort to make them more employable or reach out to new professional connections. It's a harsh world, but each of these insane posts makes that website a tiny bit more unbearable.
If you’re relying on LinkedIn for career growth you’re doing it wrong.
I don’t use it, but I’ve seen the video that a woman posted on LinkedIn of her sig heiling to prove that Elon didn’t make the “same gesture.” I’m convinced some people are just using it like regular social media, even if it makes them unemployable.
I deleted my LinkedIn almost a decade ago and am doing just fine. Really don't think it matters as much as people think.
I can imagine. Is it getting Facebook level bad?
I think it's surpassed FB, at this point.
At least, FB still has some content made by humans. On LinkedIn, every single post is AI generated. People try to promote their ideas or views, but they all rely on AI to make their posts "readable".
It’s crazy how they kept switch the number and color of arrows.
Somebody is justifying their sorry existence by making changes nobody asked for.
Consumers asked for it. Nothing much changes now, but people would complain about the whole OS looking too cartoony, too sterile, whatever. Style changed fast back then.
Are you marketing by any chance as they have their fair share of pushing idiotic, moronic changes nobody asked for.
By the way, nothing keeps you from converting any 256x256 pixel image into an .ico file and using it for the recycle bin icon.
95 was peak icon
A little partial to 2006 myself
In 2006 they knew! They knew recycling goes to trash and they didn't tell us!
