Is this a think skin problem im too calloused to understand?

I assume the route calculations happen on device as they work in offline mode, but that doesn't explain sending me the objectively slower way when it knows what the traffic is like

Also my alternate route passes more businesses, meaning it's not some "well advertise to him" bullshit

I turned OFF the "prefer eco routed" setting thinking it might be that, but no dice

I was legit imaging a pile of dust that learns telepathy to communicate with their party members and screams in an angry scotch accent to be thrown at their enemies so that their particles might sting the bastards eyes and blind them

They'd be deathly afraid of any and all cleaning staff, but also the party would have a broom and catch pan of some sort for when their buddy get a lil spilt

ain't no DM takin dis Hail Mary from a player seriously

I absolutely would, my players would need to be creative to allow this dust pile to communicate and do anything, but I'm quite sure they could manage

The dust is your body, just in a different shape

Yeah, about 2 months ago I noticed it no longer recommending a slightly alternate route on my way to work that lets me bypass a potentially 20-minute red light (bad light timing)

If I turn and do it myself it goes "oh shit you right" and gives me an updated ETA and shows the route, but it WONT show the expected slowdown anymore and WONT even suggest the alternate route

Ok i get it, it's best practice to do rushed releases without QA because users are the free testers.

You literally used the wrong version. As I stated: the app you're talking about clearly states it does not have a stable release for the version of nextcloud you're running.

They definitely had no way to know that their own app was incompatible

They knew, and told you, right on the app page

Idiot user who believed their newsletter "update now, hub 9 is the best thing ever

You said it, not me. I tried being nice but that really is what happened: you fell for what the marketing team wrote and skipped basic IT steps in doing so. Now, rather than just admit you made a mistake that a LOT of people have made (including me, I'm a fucking idiot too) you are whining and doing your best to me talk gymnastics this into you being a victim of something

How you managed to convince your IT department of anything with a knowledge that shallow and an attitude like that I'll never know. Grow up.

then a bit of warning is suggested

Which was given by the app that gets broken by the update

Windows doesn't tell you that upgrading to 11 will break x, y, and z that you have installed, you're expected to go to the sites for those programs and check if they work. Same exact idea

The same company making both apps is never a guarantee that they'll play nice day 1, for many reasons

I'll repeat: learn from your mistake instead of blaming other people for your naivete. If an app is important and might break during an update of something: check the apps documentation to see if it supports said update

Literally just googled "nextcloud forms" and looked at their supported versions and whaddya know, it says right on that webpage that there's no stable version for 30 yet, so safe bet would be that it wouldn't properly work when upgrading:

There is a supported nightly build, though, so you could probably have tried that

It's on you to look up what will break when you update, or to test and see what happens when you do. A major update page isn't going to list all of the things that rely on it that break because that's fucking unreasonable

I'm starting to see a pattern in those comments like "why did you wear a skirt that night? It looks like you asked for it..."

Cute victim mentality, but gross and insanely wrong comparison

Learn from your mistake and don't update without testing next time, it's 100% on whoever updates the production environment to make sure that shit isn't broken for whatever reason before pushing it customer-side

It's more like you bought a random white powder from your dealer without asking what it was and are now upset you almost died

To the nearest convenience store: 2.3mi / 3.7 km

To the nearest chain supermarket: 9mi / 14km (not actually a chain store, it's a small grocery in a small rural town)

To the bus stop: lol, I don't think any of the cities near me bother with that, nor would they be useful to me

To the nearest park: 5mi / 8km (lake, about a 5 minute drive)

To the nearest big supermarket: 14mi / 22km

To the nearest library: 9mi / 14km

To the nearest train station: 51mi / 82km (and this station doesn't service any location I couldn't get to faster than driving, even across country. Because AMTRAK is shit. I know because I've done it before)

This is in central CA, not far at all from the Capitol, Sacramento. For being the 5th biggest economy in the world our capitol is pathetic

Saudi Arabia, the people who

Yes, in reference to "Saudi Arabia", which refers to their government

I added the comma for clarification, but that's what was said

They didn't say "the people of Saudi Arabia did 9/11"
