Below listed documents have to be uploaded in Jazz—that’s what they told me in the last message.
I was just trying to send everything over Gmail, and then JazzHR hits me with an email saying the files are too big to send.
How am I even supposed to upload stuff into this Jazz program? Does anyone actually know what this is?

jazz.net forum:

How to upload a file into Jazz repository?

(don't bother asking—it’s like you didn't even ask me anyway)

Andrew Fox74 said:...honestly, I don't see any major issue with updates. 🤔

It doesn't matter if you don't see it—or if I don't...

A user of any software (an OS, an app, whatever) should, upon purchase or installation, have the right to customize it (via settings and such) to suit their own needs and preferences, and not allow any outside intervention (intrusions) into that software by some 'uninvited' third party... At one's own 'risk,' obviously.

I don't update, yet Windows OS has a knack for surprising me exactly when I need it least;
I'm in a rush, I boot the PC... and then:

"... Don't turn off your computer ..."

And to top it all off, (since I manually clear out my downloaded update files)

"We couldn't complete the updates, undoing changes, don't turn off your computer ..."

neoncrane64 said:..clearly leadership doesn't require any actual genius.. 🕺

That’s because you used the United Nations to justify an "oh look at us, we're both Japanese" logic.

It should have been phrased like this:
United Nations (oh look, we're both Americans)

The leadership is so indistinguishable from one another they might as well be living Life is a Miracle.

And regarding 🙂 my proposal 🙂 'United Nations (oh look, we're both Americans)'
there are endless combinations:
/he's from New York, she's from Cali, he's Texan, she's a Southerner, etc./

Anthony Nguyen81 said:I'm feeling a slight pull toward topics involving Budapest. 😁

You clearly aren't quite grasping the technical terminology here (proactive, Budapest...).
Even if my mindset is more proactive than yours, it’s still more proactive.

It’s not your fault. 🙂

neoncrane64 said:Alright, alright. Good job, colleague. 👍

Thanks for finally realizing how destructive that kind of bias can be when it shapes an entire topic. ☕

I accept your...Well done.(Directed at my guy and his work on this thread)

Anthony Nguyen81 said:Are you in favor of expanding the titles in D&D (more than two) or Life is a Miracle (life in more)?
What would that acronym even look like? 🍿

..Proactive thinking from the colleagues. Both suggestions are solid. Management will surely recognize a creative solution here. 👍
..I can't offer an original acronym right now—lacking some specific characters—but I'll hunt down the right keys on my keyboard eventually. Don't doubt my commitment to providing ideas. 👍

Injustice like this is always hard to swallow.

Why the need to praise @Anthony Nguyen81 when I am also thinking proactively on this thread and offering excellent suggestions? Especially since management has a proven track record of recognizing my creative solutions lately...

You want to expand the titles to 'D&D (or more)' or Life is a Miracle
What would that acronym look like? 🍿

Here is one more proactive thought:
The old D&D could stay, just change the title to BLuD (Bonding Lives of Duos).

neoncrane64 said:... You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.
So, take off your panties 👍

Good grief, Americans...

If my information is correct,
we wouldn't even need to explain the Philosophy behind the "take off your clothes" command to the ladies here in the States...

Don't mention it. ☕

First step: the rules on that PDF need changing.Reddit: Changing my username (read the first post!)'

I’ve been posting on Reddit for quite a while now. Naturally, I don't go around introducing myself as @Ani_, but rather as someone who has had significant success with women.

That little trick didn't exactly put food on my table either.
@Ani_ is the only one on Reddit who’s actually shown any interest in marrying me, but...

Everything was set. Guests were invited, the catering was booked, the whole nine yards. Then she drops the "pregnancy" bomb—which, as it turns out, was a complete lie. Now, it’s a knife in the back for both of us. And coming from the one person you least expected? That’s what really stings.

Look, like I already said...Everything is already organized. It's all set."

Six days later:
- The pop music scene is currently a mess. It’s all recycled hooks and manufactured personas. No substance, just noise designed for algorithms. Most of what's topping the charts feels like it was written by a committee rather than an artist. It's predictable, uninspired, and frankly, exhausting.: "Adelone, what are you doing? Are you actually going to marry this woman?"
- Yeah.: "I'll take it, buddy."
- The pop culture landscape is shifting. It’s happening. People are starting to realize that what we were fed for years wasn't actually good—it was just loud. Everything feels manufactured now. Overproduced. Empty. We're seeing a slow pivot toward something with actual substance, though most people are too distracted by the noise to notice. It's inevitable.: "@Ani_ , you taking him?..."

Even pop didn't get that right.@Ani_Everything was quiet, until his phone buzzed. A single text message had arrived:
Code:

Get out of my sight, both of you. You and her. Shame on you.

First thing's first: we need to overhaul the rules on the Reddit sub.

I’d suggest an A4 document rather than just raw images—something that looks like a legitimate photocopy once printed on standard paper...
(Honestly, simple photocopying would probably be the smartest move for dustycanyon4, assuming that's actually what we're dealing with here.)

dustycanyon4 said:Hey, I was wondering where I could track down, or maybe how I’d go about making, an A4 sheet (210x297mm) but converted entirely into pixels—basically just a blank white canvas at that specific resolution?

Like Michelle Bennett5 said, your request doesn't make sense. What's the actual goal here? Getting A4 paper isn't some grand challenge—you don't need to 'manufacture' it....
If the dimensions change even slightly, it's no longer A4, regardless of whether the aspect ratio stays at 1:1.414.

Try making sense of this information (using what's at the top of the page)

Moderating 'Literature' could be one possible alternative...

Thanks, old friend.

Ashley Vaughn79 said:coppersailor28... and who exactly are you supposed to be?

Interesting question.

Who am I?
I am a human being. In the first row, no less. Yes, a human being through and through. And I won't claim to be perfect—if that’s what you’re looking for. Being human comes with certain flaws. For instance, I have a tendency toward giving people second chances. Even when they clearly haven't earned them.

No. I’m far from perfect.

Ashley Vaughn79 said:Since you've been registered since 2006, what year were you born?

So, 2006. And what exactly would I be?
My godfather accidentally opened this online account instead of going through a local bank... he might have had one too many drinks, honestly.

Ashley Vaughn79 said:What do you do for a living?

Nothing special. Just some kind of kickback... At the diner.at Mary'sI'm basically a regular at a few other steakhouses, too.

Ashley Vaughn79 The user said:What exactly do you want to moderate?

I want to be a moderator so badly that I honestly don't care which office they assign me to.
Maybe I should just look over that "Username Change" PDF. You know, the one...So, you want to switch from plan A to plan B? Get in touch with Nice."...

Ashley Vaughn79 The user said:And most importantly... what exactly are your motives for being a moderator? 😬

World peace, ending hunger, curing every disease... stopping wars altogether... there's plenty more where that came from. World peace, for instance.

It’s actually pretty ridiculous looking back at how this all kicked off...
'at Mary'sThe topic of moderation came up entirely by accident, and someone tossed this my way:coppersailor28, I think you’d make an excellent moderator. Wouldn't you agree, everyone?The group around that table is getting too big.Exactly."... "It’s true. coppersailor28 would make a solid moderator."... "Long live coppersailor28, the best moderator around!... etc., etc.

Obviously, I went straight to the gym for a quick round, then headed home. After that, I spent some time before bed just sitting there, thinking everything over.

Early this morning—around 1:45 PM—I thought to myself, "Why not give it a shot? Maybe I’m being too modest." So, I logged onto the forum and told some loudmouth to shut his mouth now that I’ve finally arrived on the thread.

Basically, within thirty seconds, I get a warm message in a foreign language (though I did manage to decipher "Dear Adelon").

An immediate like. And from the thread's own moderator, no less.
Such instant success, even though I barely prepared for my big debut playing the role of moderator—and let’s be clear, I was just acting the part.

Ashley Vaughn79 said:I don't have any influence whatsoever; I'm just curious.

Yeah, right. ... you know exactly what I mean.

Was it really that hard to just say it upfront?!!!

restlessdrifter4 said:... we can both do much better than these few mindless posts, somewhere on another thread. 😉 ...

Et tu, brother 🤦

You can definitely do much better with these kind of juvenile attempts at achieving a specific goal...

Such a transparent display of 'natural moderator talent', or rather, psychological moderator tactics... honestly, I have no comment... shame on you, what else is there to say?
You could have been far more useful here (just like I am, for example).

But no. Let's just start threads about the IRS tax code instead, shall we?... It doesn't matter to you that even if you were, say, the author of this thread, you came here to dig an even deeper hole...

(Fine, still friends... But I had to get that out—certain people [the most influential ones, not those so-called 'registered users'] should be able to use my actions and my words to pick the best among the best)

restlessdrifter4 said:... So, look, it's not bad, actually. 🙂 It's just that I feel somewhat round. Any idea why? Maybe it's because of that number on the left? 😁
...

It's definitely because of that round number. 👍

The Reddit mods and I agree: it would be best to leave that number exactly
as it appears at this precise /Tuesday, 5/4/2021 7:25 PM/ moment (see image):

restlessdrifter4 said:... That's how that last post disappeared, the one you hello Adeline replied to a while back, remember? ...

(you didn't need to bold my username!)

I recall there being something—but not enough to actually recount to anyone... it's all a bit hazy...
In fact, if my life depended on my memory, I wouldn't be able to reconstruct anything concrete... no... well what you just wrote (and I am well just quoting without even reading).

So to reiterate:
Damn, the blur amount is definitely at least 96.3%, if not more !

Let's move on. How have you been anyway?

silentridge3 said:... For now, I don't have the slightest clue what's going on.
If something is off-limits, it's best if you tell me exactly what. ...

I've already told you that I want no further association with either the Diary of a Wimpy Kid scandal or the Big Peter affair.
I am truly sorry, but I would ask that you respect this decision moving forward (which was entirely my own—I want to make that very clear).

Best regards

silentridge3 said:?

You misunderstood me.
Feel free to keep digging through the Diary of a Wimpy Kid scandal if you want. Just don't come crying later saying "I didn't know" or "nobody warned me" and all that nonsense...
Personally, I'm washing my hands of this whole thing right now, completely guilt-free.

(...Look, you're an adult running your own show. Honestly, who cares what happens next 🤷 )

stormyangler32 said:I don't know about that, man. For instance—I've got this folder full of photos—and whenever I try to move them, half the shots transfer fine, but then another batch gets stuck at like 90% and just hangs there... eventually throwing an error saying the file can't be moved and asking if I want to skip it. It’s the exact same deal with my videos, too. Some of the 3 or 4 GB files go through without a hitch, but then some tiny 300 MB ones just fail. If it were really a file system issue—like whether it's NTFS or FAT or whatever—it would either work for everything or nothing at all, right?

Or, as @mr-crime pointed out, "something is locking the file"... or you simply lack the necessary permissions (meaning you don't have the right to move certain files or mess with them at all).

Try this on your laptop: create a few new folders (call them a, b, c, d). Select a handful of images and move them manually—right-click and "move here"—one by one. Not literally one by one, obviously, but move as many as work into folder 'a'. Whatever fails stays in the original folder. Then try moving those leftovers into folder 'b', and so on.

Grab a task manager (Windows Task Manager works, though I'm not sure if newer versions handle this specific check) to see which process, service, or app is currently preventing changes to a file.
Personally, I’d start by trying some "take ownership" tools first.

I’m 100% convinced that once Peter grew up, he ended up washing windows for a shop called 'Shiny Glass.'😵

If the rumors about Ford are true, then the whole situation regarding the deleted posts and the total lack of response becomes perfectly clear...
It's not some grand mystery or a conspiracy theory—it's just how things work.

(@silentridge3, don't go poking around that again if you know what's good for you)

Anthony Nguyen81 said:... I've already asked the moderator to pay more attention to the constant jumping in, the insults, and the general nonsense, but unfortunately, to no avail.

The established moderator establishment doesn't forward—or rather, share—requests like yours with me. For that reason, I wasn't even aware of your issue until now...
As a prospective moderator, I can only offer a generalized opinion on this matter, especially since I lack the necessary expertise in history and historical topics to weigh in there—and frankly, I have no interest in doing so:

Your post count isn't small, which significantly increases the odds that you won't be "liked" by certain people (to be clear, I find you perfectly likable)...
@Arthur Smith15 (though it could easily be anyone else) is, in my view, justified in being "angry" at you.

With that many posts, you are almost certainly a "main character" for most users; and that kind of forum engagement inevitably fuels the frequency of those threads populated by such "universal main characters"...

People expect their posts—those containing somewhat quality content—to remain on the front page for at least a few moments after they hit send.
Diluting a debate with what appears to be "alternative history" is, for any user genuinely interested in history, an incredibly irritating move in the moment...

(If I've completely missed the mark here, then I sincerely apologize for my assumptions.)

Morgan Rodriguez57 said:How old are you?

In a situation like this, age is irrelevant.

It’s entirely possible that rowdydriver2 is still a young guy. But judging by the posts in this PŽK thread, he’s decades older than you—and honestly, probably older than me too.
rowdydriver2's posts here explain the problem with incredible intelligence, while simultaneously offering a very simple solution.

This thread on Reddit. I've been following this since the start. Not because I actually care about the original topic—I don't—but because it’s become "interesting" now.
I'm not particularly interested in the original topic because of its religious undertones. My issue is actually with why it’s even allowed on this site. It seems like Reddit permits people to state their opinions quite freely—just without ever being required to explain them.

So, basically, clarification becomes a punishable offense if "we" find their religious mindset sexually repulsive—specifically, their willingness to accept certain barbaric ideas that conflict with what a civilized, secular society stands for. For instance, supporting their deity in all his absolute depravity, like those biblical mandates for stoning, burning, or decapitation.

Subject With that kind of inquiry or subject matter. (The appeal of religious people.I'm ready. Send the content. Where is it? rowdydriver2, objectively speaking, he’s not at fault for "catching" anything. Not happening. On this forum. It shouldn't exist. Period.

Opening post for this thread:

"I’m curious about your take on this: does religiousness in a man or woman act as an automatic dealbreaker for you? Is it a non-issue, or do you actually find it intriguing?"

Are believers "to be attracted"?Genetics. A certain breed of person.Either that, or they're "just" being...Ideological. A certain breed of person.'?!
(a 'A certain breed of person.It looks like they are. That’s what Reddit suggests, seeing as the topic itself hasn't been flagged.

Good grief, I can't exactly help it if I'm attracted to someone religious. It's just how it works. Because they do. Thanks to their religious fervor. Long or short legs. A good head shape, or maybe not. Light skin, dark skin. It all comes down to that.

restlessdrifter4 said:... Even if the lovely Casey Bennett claims otherwise...

Good grief. 🤦
If you ask me, you're toast.

I once sent a message to a woman—also a moderator, though I can't recall if it was this specific one, but it doesn't matter—saying, "hey there, gorgeous"...

Within seconds, I received a 🙂 private 🙂 message that didn't waste any time getting to the point: "Dear coppersailor28...".
(Needless to say, I didn't read the rest; I deleted her attempt at flirting immediately. There are specific subforums for dating and romance in the States; go find your "dear" there.)

As for the rest of your post:
I like it and support the general sentiment. 👍
