Microsoft Asked Me To Stay Signed In Then Asked Me To Sign In
Oh, the AUDACITY! Microsoft literally promises you'll be asked to sign in less often if you stay signed in, but then IMMEDIATELY betrays you by asking you to sign in again. It's like someone promising to stop asking if you're okay while actively asking if you're okay. The "Don't show this again" checkbox? That's just decorative at this point. Pure theater. Microsoft's authentication system has the memory of a goldfish with amnesia. You click "Yes" to stay signed in, and two seconds later it's like "New phone, who dis?" Truly the most committed gaslighting in tech history.

She Should Have Asked The Devs First
Tech journalist writes a whole article about privacy concerns with Google Sign-In, warning people not to "put all their eggs in one basket." Meanwhile, the website she's writing for literally has a big fat "Sign up with Google" button staring everyone in the face. The irony is chef's kiss level. Someone in editorial approved an article about avoiding Google authentication while their own dev team implemented OAuth with Google as probably the primary sign-up method. It's like writing "10 Reasons to Quit Coffee" for a Starbucks blog. Pretty sure the devs are somewhere laughing at the Slack notification about this article going live, knowing full well they just merged a PR last week to make the Google sign-in button even bigger.
