Sometimes, tech companies are too smart for their own good.

 

I have a particular pet peeve about the way they present stuff to me on their websites. They insist on switching everything to the local language, even if everything on the computer is set to English International.

 

It's like "oh look, we are so smart that we can see that you are there, so you must prefer to see everything the way we think you would". Well, ladies and gentlemen geeks, that's a truckload of bull caca. 

 

It's not only this ridiculous presumptiveness that rubs me the wrong way, but also the fact that you either can't change the language, or you have to hunt for the setting several levels deep.

 

BAH!
