And it's a voice message. And you forgot to turn down the volume from 100%.

Low Effort Memes

Some communities have standards. We do not.
Have fun posting!
Welcome to loweffortmemes! This is your space for:
- Posting memes that took you 30 seconds to make
- Sharing weird, niche, or confusing content that doesn't fit elsewhere
- Embracing the beautiful art of minimal effort, maximum vibes
- Whatever random stuff makes you laugh (high effort memes welcome too!)
Community Guidelines:
-
No standards, but we still have rules: Just because we accept low-effort content doesn't mean anything goes. Normal instance rules still apply- don't spread hate, be civil to others, etc.
-
All memes are good memes: That meme you made in MS Paint? That oddly specific joke about your niche hobby? That high-effort masterpiece? That thing other communities thought was "too low quality"? All perfect!
-
Don't kill the vibe: We're here to laugh at dumb stuff together, so keep things chill and fun.
Let's celebrate the fine art of doing the bare minimum and somehow making it work (but also the maximum if that's your thing)!
TLDR: meme gud

Am I the only one who hates voice messages? Just type it out ffs. I’m not listening to it. Why is there no transcribe option?
Fucking on-call rotation. So much of it should just be automated. I shouldn't be looking up who owns the server that went down at 3am to let them know. It should send direct to them.
Edit: To be clear because of the downvote, I'm not saying the down server would do the reach out. It's down. It can't do anything.
My team is infrastructure. The servers are cattle, not pets, and there is a separate team for being able to troublshoot application specific issues and whether it's running properly after a restart.
All the info to determine if it's a system wide problem vs a single virtual server, to identify the owner properly, and to automate routing this stuff to the people who can actually do something about it are all there for our monitoring system. I know because I was directly involved in all of that. I made sure it was.
The only thing I didn't handle myself was configuring the alerting system, because that was set to be a project for a co-worker to lead. So every fucking network connectivity blip comes to us because they're going to "sort out the specifics later" before it goes live... like two years ago.
