Quake III Arena also had a native Linux version.

And Quake, Quake 2, Descent, UT, Tribes 2.

White Americans, what? Nothing better to do.

Why don’t you kick yourself out? You’re an immigrant too.

Cellophane, foil, and/or paper.

My ADHD was/is pretty bad, but I learned to type just fine. Even learned on a manual typewriter.

Also lost a 10 page paper in high school because the computer crashed. Rewrote the paper during lunch and study hour because I had to turn it in that day. Learned to save frequently from that experience. Conveniently, deadlines help with ADHD concentration. It’s one of the reasons ADHD people procrastinate. Once the pressure of the deadline gets bad enough we are usually able to focus on the task at hand.

The iPod was so derivative of the creative labs mp3 player that Apple ultimately had to pay them $100 million.

The Lisa and later the Macintosh copied from xerox. Something that everyone was doing around then. Amiga and Atari ST both had guis. Hell even the commodore 64 had Geos. The Mac didn’t even get color until 1987.

Handspring had a smart phone, complete with touch screen and apps, years before the iPhone.

Mac os didn’t have proper multitasking until version 7.5, years after Windows had it.

Onkyo created the first true wireless earbuds.

Doesn’t Australia include the tax in the listed price of the item instead of adding it at the end?

I feel like you’re confusing intelligence and education. There are plenty of smart uneducated people, and quite a few educated stupid people.

Intelligence exists, it’s just hard to measure.

That was my teenage go to, except I used Ragu PizzaQuick because I was trashy.

I usually go with over medium eggs on toast.

Not low carb, but still tasty.

Yeah, let’s just ignore that historically Israel has killed 20 Palestinians for each Israeli killed.

Steam deck 2: episode 2

Which makes the lack of an android app all the more shitty. They have one already but refuse to make it available if the device isn’t connected to a TV.

Then you get into the actual layout of the program. Spoilers are a huge issue. I can’t watch a game later without having the game ruined partially. Sure you can switch off scores, but you still have to scroll through game highlights to get to the full match replay.

Maybe you can find some old stadia controllers for cheap and convert them to Bluetooth controllers.

Edit: looks like most of the used stadia controllers I find are close to $20-30.

After watching my cop neighbor try to drive a dog away with pepper spray, it’s not going to help much. Even direct hits to the eyes didn’t seem to affect the dog much.

Was Oracle ever not shit?

I’m a 53 year old IT person, and I’m leaning towards 1. The level of technology incompetence in the general public is astounding. My wife only knows “Have you tried turning it off and back on again?” And that pretty much makes her a member of the help desk at her job.

You underestimate how shitty most software is written.

I’ve absolutely used timecard software that used the local device time instead of using a centralized time source.

Woosta MA would beg to differ.

Aye, there’s the rub.

There are HDMI cables that are basically HDMI to fiber tranceivers. The HDMI plug draws power from the HDMI port to use active components to convert to a fiber signal.
