Doubtless most of you experienced the after-effects of Mr. Softy’s severe blue balls today. It was actually a pretty hilarious start to a Friday the 13th, if I am honest. I woke up, logged in, and found that my email wasn’t working, so my colleagues and I naturally started shooting the shit on Teams about how everything was down.
One of my teammates mentioned that this might have something to do with the whole “Jensen’s wang” situation from yesterday.
That… opened the floodgates, really, for what has to be the single funniest day of my entire time in corporate life.
I responded by saying that Jensen’s johnson created big trouble in little China, and then wondered if I was even allowed to make that joke. Nobody objected; in fact, somebody else responded by posting up a couple of memes, one of which mentioned that we now have to account for CEO horniness when valuing companies.
When I asked how we might do such a thing, and said that I would pay good money to see a B-school finance class incorporate that into a valuation exercise, the response was, “well, calculate a horniness index by CEO and apply a multiplier to the cash flows – job done”.
My response:
“Ah, yes, the classic D**Kcounted cash flow method of valuation”.
As you can perhaps imagine, precious little work got done today.
The whole thing apparently resulted from some Microslop network engineer patching in an update with a bug in it, which brought down LITERALLY EVERYTHING when the load on the system grew too great.
I would not be in the least bit surprised to learn one day that the engineer in question is a Pajeet. This is not new; Jeet coding has entered major and critical software to an unprecedented degree, and we are all paying the price for it.
You are not hallucinating or confabulating when you think that everything has gotten way worse. Enshittification is absolutely real, and we are all experiencing it in realtime. Today, some 74 countries got smacked in the face by the consequences of Microslop’s blue balls, and not one of us is happy about it.
Oddly enough, I didn’t hear any Russians complaining much about the issues, but then again, much of Russia has switched over to Linux-based software for government work. I don’t know about the corporations – I would imagine most of those still use Microslop, but I cannot be sure. I also did not see many complaints from the Chinks, except for Hong Kong, where shit got real awfully quickly for them. But, given how locked-down the media is in both countries, it is very hard to tell whether there was a real and severe impact.
Anyway, let us get away from such vividly stupid imagery and get to the lovely lady of the week, just in time for Friday the 13th.
This here is Ekaterina Dorogina, age 32 from Mordor, and she is some sort of actress and model. Apparently she has starred in dramas and comedies in Russia. I have never heard of her in any film before, but then, I do not actually watch much Russian cinema – despite my Russophilia, I might add. We can also say for certain that she has a decent set of headlights – especially when they are set to high beam.
Happy Friday, all.
