We definitely called them “push pops” when I was a kid, but I imagine it varied regionally.

Most of the programmers I know (including myself) use Linux or BSD, but that all depends on who you associate with. A lot of companies are purely Windows shops and others just throw their programmers mac books and call it a day. At my last company I was only briefly allowed to use Linux until they decided it was no good as I couldn’t use whatever resource intensive corporate garbage security software of the year they bought.
There were clearly some questionable recycling methods for used toilet paper rolls back in the day, but don’t worry, the sweet orange flavor covered up the after taste.
Mostly same here, but (I have an SSD with W10 on it. I haven’t booted into my Windows drive since 2023. I only had a a few games installed on that drive, but it was also useful for the rare instance that I needed to some some propriety configuration utility.
It worked as of six months ago, but it is possible that was patched in this recent “fix”.
The W11 installer sadly doesn’t allow that anymore with the current versions. If you have that older installer, keep it safely archived.
Most of the newer CPU’s have an NPU already, Microsoft just set a higher performance requirement for NPUs to be officially labeled an “AI PC” which they are pushing hard.
For real, how is it that Brother makes the only printer that everything from my phone to my servers can use without problems. Bonus points for not gouging on toner.
Irssi. It’s extensible and stable, been using it for years.
Interesting, I guess that could make sense that the spreading fire would be a constant noise/aggro generator.
Everyone calls it “KMFDM - symbols” for a reason. I agree only in that it drives me insane when I would rip CDs and have to deal with trying to figure out what to name them. Also, fuck Leæther Strip for their stupid “æ” in the name.
It also helps that one of the patches toned down the spawn rate. It was just insane trying to get an initial base going.
I played through the public test quite a bit with a friend. This is a really good (and difficult) update.
Even though I wasn’t a fan of their modified Gnome DE, I really like the distro as a whole. It made it seamless to use both AMD and Nvidia cards, Steam worked out of the box, and I had no issues with using Ubuntu or Debian repos. I’m not sure whether I’ll use Cosmic or not, but I’ll probably give it a fair try eventually.
Untrue, they also work in Nethack and other rogue-likes!
Our sister company had their VPN broken by this and we had to switch to another system. Even though it wasn’t a particularly secure VPN (IPSec), the builtin Windows VPN was extremely reliable and convenience compared to shit like Pulse.
I concur completely. I mean, I like Morrowind quite a bit, but coming from playing 1000 hours in Daggerfall and seeing this tiny simplified, constrained game world in the sequel was disheartening. The fact that everything since has been so much worse in that regard had made Morrowind age pretty well I suppose.
Yes, I got my kid one the other day.
