A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.

Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.

RULES:

  1. Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
  7. No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

I just check the last boot time, though win10 fucked that up and made shutting down not actually restart the system.... Nothing like getting schooled by an older customer because MicroSlop changed behavior.

I was just about to comment basically this. It doesn't help that MS changed the default behavior so that a lot of people that think they were shutting down their computers were actually just putting them to sleep.

One time my Mom had that same thing happen. She genuinely thought she'd been shutting down the computer but that damn "Low Power mode" for "Faster wake up" had been keeping it from fully shutting down so it hadn't actually been turned off in months. She was so fucking mad when I showed her what it had been doing.
