  • Unless OP is in a management position, where politics and such BS may as well be in the PD, what on earth is the need to judge your co-workers’ personalities?

    I’ve dealt with a lot of different people at work, vastly different people. But as long as we can get the work done, let it be introverted or antisocial, it just doesn’t matter? Hell, even if it gets in the way of my job, there are professional ways to move forward. I’m here to get shit done and collect my paychecks, not to have ‘emotional experiences’ every day with everyone. There are some 4000 people in my company, I can’t socialise with everyone, I don’t want to socialise with everyone, and I certainly don’t care if someone refuses to socialise. 99% of them are not too different from random online strangers to me. Communications usually just go ‘Can we do this?’ ‘Sure.’ Then fast forward 3 months they may not even still work here. I socialise with a handful of people I like, and I’ve made some good friends. Others I absolutely don’t care. I expect communications to be productive, not ‘emotional’. I’m just an IC, not the company’s counsellor.









  • I heard of Tidal a long time ago but their non-English support is simply missing. It doesn’t even show the original Japanese titles of many songs I listen to.

    How about Qobuz?

    Edit: Tested Qobuz and the Japanese support was quite bad too. I searched for a Japanese artist, their name showed up but only one song was there. Tried searching for the title of a song instead, no hit. I thought I was region blocked. Then tried romaji and finally more results, mixed in English and Japanese though. In Spotify I can search in Japanese, English, or romaji when I’m too lazy to switch input method. Also in Qobuz lots of Japanese artists’ profiles were incomplete.



  • It’s not skipping MFA cos some media can provide more than one factor.

    E.g. YubiKey 5 (presence of the device) + PIN (knowledge of some credentials) = 2 factors

    Or YubiKey Bio (presence of the device) + fingerprint (biological proof of ownership) = 2 factors

    And actually unless you use one password manager database for passwords, another one for OTPs, and never unlock them together on the same machine, it’s not MFA but 1FA. Cos if you have them all at one place, you can only provide one factor (knowledge of the manager password, unless you program an FPGA to simulate a write only store or something).
