      Absurdly long “article” and as always the answer is at the very bottom: Yes it’s fake, the Opera GX team likes to do this stuff.

    This is gonna be millennials in about 10 years. Gen-Z is already making fun of millennial core.

      I disagree completely with what you said. Millennials on average make an effort to embrace gen-z slang. And millenials actually respect the fact that new gens have new lingo. And they’re open to change. Boomers just fucking hate all newer gen lingo and think that their language js superior because boomers only care about themselves.

        Millennial here. I dislike gen z talk. It adds noise. Fr fr, no cap

        Why use many words when few do trick.

        And then there’s us Gen-X folk standing off to the side watching other generations bitch at each other because they always forget about us. Maybe we just need to be called “The Forgotten Generation”.

    Are we still doing phrasing?

  • afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

    If you add “ing” to a noun it is the verb form. Thus using Edge is Edging

      I totally already use this for work and I work in a VERY serious industry… if anything it’s catching on haha

        You and your coworkers are all Edging at work?

      That seems accurate because using Edge makes me want to get off.

      And using Bing is binging.

      They ran it by their burnt-out millenial wageslave, who said “sure, great, looks good.”

    Microsoft is thrilled to announce a new scripting engine: the Full Automation Platform. Do routine maintenance tasks bore you? Why not FAP instead? Want an offline media library? A few minutes’ effort and you’ll be FAPing to thousands of pictures and videos from all over the web. You can even FAP with friends and coworkers thanks to our online code-sharing platform! Just set up an account with our Command Line Interface Tool (CLIT) and your FAPing knows no bounds. Microsoft: Show us how you FAP!

    It’s a dumb, hopeful prompt, as usual for social media managers.

    Tangentially, I’m not sure I get the continued Edge hate. It’s not as nice as Firefox, but I’d gladly choose Edge over Chrome when using a site that requires WebKit. It at least means tabs go to sleep, and Microsoft gets to remove Google’s tracking (and, admittedly, add their own)

    • ben_dover@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

      (not trolling, genuinely curious) how does edge help with anything WebKit? i thought it uses Chromium under the hood too

      source
      • theneverfox@pawb.social ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

        I think you’re misinterpreting their words

        Edge uses the chrome engine, they’re saying that for sites that break on a non webkit browser, they use edge before chrome

      Try saying that after the 20th time Windows pops up to “persuade” you to switch back to Edge.

      It’s text.

      Unless your boss is actively reading your screen or it makes you so damn hot you can’t contain yourself, it’s safe for work.

        It was a joke though.

    Last time I used Windows (for browsing) it was still the explorer. Is that obnoxious paper clip still a thing?

    • Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

      Haven’t seen it in years. Edge is also a decent browser for when you need it. I use Firefox 99.9 percent of the time but for the odd site that it won’t load edge works just fine.

      • phoenixz@lemmy.ca ⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago

        Edge is chromium anyway with some added tracking
