Hey local-to-me ppl - anyone else seeing something busted about the City of Kitchener's web site? Is Kitchener on any of our fediverse TLs?
I'm getting the home page loading "greyed out" and entirely inoperable for me, same result across multiple cache-clearings and reloads in 3 different browsers.
I'm also beginning to doubt my sanity over the volume of tech malfunctions and incompatibilities I'm seeing in front of my face that don't seem to be notable to anyone else (WARNING: not the spot to wave your pro/con advocacy flags for some tool or other, thanks)
It's like every digital tool is gaslighting me right now because I'm finding on a daily basis that software update A correlates with some new dysfunction in apparently unrelated application B.
Another one that happened: Mac OS and Safari updated this past week ... and suddenly the Google apps I've been using all semester are spewing "Authentication errors" and I cannot access my work, and the error is blaming "old" versions of Safari or Internet Explorer. 😤
Stop breaking other fucking tech to ram your tech down everyone's throat.
Very much not lost on me right now!
Spouse is dealing with "AI or else" mandates and even though he's found occasional utility in it - it's making a lot of work miserable.
This makes as much sense as demanding every manufacturing or assembly business equip each employee with high-end chainsaw as their first-line tool for all tasks, regardless of whether the task is cutting up wood, fine-carpentry finishing, or graphic design and marketing. Everyone's output is woodchips.
