Wish I was surprised that #ANZ staff have been trained to call the hamburger drop-down directory menu "the search bar".

But it's oh so possible that the web-page designers are so out of touch with common language that they're calling it "the search bar" themselves.

And their managers are letting this go on by.

Garbage industries with garbage customer communication skills.

Whats wrong?

Is it the socio-economic construct which has allowed weak minded people to create a whole society wherein people have multitudes of means of communication and yet they constantly FAIL to communicate? #failuretocommunicate

I provided about $1500 worth of WILD foraged food to a "prominent" restaurant 3 months ago.. they refuse to communicate in any meaningful way with seemingly 5 parties involved and expect me to create some digital account only to finally pay the wrong invoice

Oh boy, I didn't expect #Matrix to be such a pain! So now I can successfully write messages to that one group channel from one PC, but when written from another PC they cannot be decrypted by others. I _could_ start debugging this; but that's yet another layer of yak shaving :-(

Seriously, can we maybe go back to IRC? Trying to find out who can read which Matrix message in a channel that's about a _wholly_ different topic is not even funny any more.

Pretty appalling that while we immigrants discuss how the #VoiceToParliament will impact us & our priviliged lives, those for whom this will really make a true difference, aren't being well informed about what it is!
Is there any wonder the 'No' naysayers get such traction.
They are always smarter more cannae communicators than those wanting progress.😩

ABC News Daily - Why remote communities haven't heard of the Voice

The Yes campaign for the Voice to Parliament ramped up on the weekend with rallies around the country, for now though the polls suggest more Australians would vote no when we head to a referendum. But what do First Nations people in the remote areas of the country think?  Today investigative journalist Jane Bardon takes us there and reveals many residents have never even heard of the Voice.

There's a Hokusai exhibit at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts that I plan to see soon:

Tonight a friend said she found Hokusai's work ugly & cold. I wanted to talk to her about it like Virginia Madsen speaks about wine to Paul Giamatti on the porch in "Sideways." Persuasively. Glowingly.

But I botched it. Perhaps because, as Giamatti's character snarls to his mirror just afterward, I'm "such a fucking loser."

Hokusai: Inspiration and Influence

Taking a new approach to the work of the ever-popular Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849), this major exhibition explores in detail his impact on other artists—both during his lifetime and beyond.
