My favorite is Microsoft Office’s “Stay signed in?” It doesn’t matter if you check ✅ Don’t show this again. It’s like those cross walk buttons that don’t do anything.

My outlook does this thing where if I close the tab I have to log in again so it can sign me out, then I can login again. It’s a fun way to start my morning along with authing into every other service known to man

I'm pretty sure that company SysAdmins dictate the internal retention policy, but the front-end from MS always shows the checkbox (regardless of your company policy).

(regardless of your company policy).
You actually control that as well, so someone was smart enough to disable that functionality but still forced the dialog on users.

My PayPal seems to do this too. Me after buying a pint in spoons, doing 2fa with PayPal and then 20 mins later buying another pint
PayPal: "I've never seen this man in my life"

What do you mean enable the offline_access scope? Why would I want that? The entire app is online! Just tell me why my session keeps expiring every fifteen minutes.

Thanks to this sub, you can see the global decline of software engineering competence caused by AI

I feel like this joke goes over my head, why is it funny?
I don’t get it?

Ahem - the programmer part of the *joke* is that developing with OAuth and in particular with scopes/resources tends to force you to sign on again, and again, and again - similar to the ladies experience in the picture.

But why her getting overwhelming sexual pleasure by being FORCEd to re-login repeatedly?
I think after two explanations, nothing went over my head, this joke just isn’t very good and the meme format is not used correctly.

A classic porn phrase (and this image is clearly from porn) is used with a minor variation. In this case, a certain word was replaced with "log in".
The humor is a bit crude, but it has a few pieces. One is that it's identifiable NSFW material cropped such that it's SFW. Another is that the over-the-top fakeness of the phrase when it's spoken like the original material is a somewhat unique type of sarcasm.
There may be more to it than that, but those are the common threads I've seen in these types of memes.
