it's for your own good; etc etc [00:54] MinceR just smile and put the shackles on [00:55] activelow the management chaos and chaotic schedule, this was the scandal [00:56] activelow and it still is, since i wouldn't know any of the highly paid management staff from telecom headquarter ever took any responsibility or bothered with contacting me to ask why i quit [00:56] MinceR there are many scandal-worthy things going on in there [00:56] MinceR like how they assisted the hungarian communist party (aka fidSS) in spreading propaganda and limiting people's access to actual news [00:57] activelow didn't know telecom was involved, and it is rarely presented as public entity with the corrupt media cartel in germany at least [00:58] activelow which is another remarkable detail of history, this corrupt media cartel of public TV and news is funded with 8billions annually in germany, but the german telecom university quit their operation (now integrated into regular non-private university) [00:58] MinceR there was also that time when they developed an utterly worthless online ticket purchasing service for budapest's absolutely worthless public transport system [00:59] MinceR and you could get your ticket for 1 HUF if you edited the webpage locally or faked query parameters [00:59] MinceR and some guy reported this to them, and their response was, of course, to sue him for breaking into their precious system ● Aug 19 [01:00] MinceR they also developed atrocious ticket vending machines which are more likely to crash than finish a transaction [01:00] MinceR also, the vending machine's approach to payment by debit card is to check that a card was inserted and then immediately throw away the entire transaction and complain about some error with payment [01:01] MinceR apparently actually talking to the card and retrying payment are both for losers who aren't allied with the hungarian communist party [01:01] MinceR who cares, the state paid anyway [01:01] activelow goes without saying i didn't receive any salary from telecom in 15 years [01:04] activelow https://www.dw.com/en/germany-shuts-down-atomic-plant-as-nuclear-phase-out-enters-final-stretch/a-51845616 [01:04] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Germany shuts down atomic plant as nuclear phase-out enters final stretch | News | DW | 31.12.2019 [01:07] activelow we followed a university schedule which was aligned to western guidance after 1990, it isn't specific to any particular vendor, but outlines the planning horizon of decades required: https://www.theregister.com/2013/06/19/nuke_plants_to_keep_pdp11_until_2050/ [01:07] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-www.theregister.com | Nuke plants to rely on PDP-11 code UNTIL 2050!
