'99-present: One Piece 😁

I’ve probably seen something older and don’t remember though

IBM does not have a great track record with fascist regimes, and I don’t particularly trust US-based enterprise software to not be backdoored anymore, especially not an operating system

In an enterprise environment? Hell no. But a home server? Not like most of us are counting gigabytes of storage, and its not the worst thing to have in case your other hardware breaks

Same. Its the only thing i like about gnome, that buttery smooth three finger swipe on the touchpad to switch around. It made me actually understand how people can stand to work on a laptop without multiple monitors

Everything else about gnome to me just feels like they’re trying to abstract away basic functionality

Title: major incident!!!1!1!! (No location or context)

Linux became so much less work to keep running than windows, even for gaming (if you’ve got an AMD gpu at least). I don’t play competitive gaming in any capacity so I’m not missing pretty much anything.

AI generated commenting? Idk I’ve never coded anything beyond modifying powershell scripts

It runs an HDMI cable to a TV instead of relying on a crappy abandonware TV OS.

I mean… that worked fine for teenage me with a DSI.

I saw something somewhere that they’re still selling them on ebay under the name “Logicool”, not sure how legit it is though.

Ive got 3 g600’s in rotation myself, i have yet to actually kill one and my main one has lasted me 5+ years

Logitech made the best (the g600) but it was discontinued and they show no signs of reviving it 😭

Oof, yeah, sharepoint is horrible

Active Directory is a hell of a drug, as is Group Policy

There’s a non-zero chance the license is stored on the motherboard of the laptop (ie, embedded in BIOS).

I’ve got a Latitude XT2. some of the plastic bits aged badly and developed a sort of weird film, including the charger brick; if you’ve had the same problem, I scrubbed the hell out of those specific parts with goo-gone and a microfiber cloth and its smooth and shiny again.

Okay, that’s pretty sweet. Imma have to look into that, i know a guy who just retired a home server with like 10+ old HDDs

Doing that would scare the other rich people away, and he doesn’t want that.

They aren’t?

Fair enough, ill still leave it solely for the “definition of insanity” meme origin

Far Cry 2 and far cry 3.

3 for a legendary compelling villain (Vaas)

2 for genuinely immersive in-game UI design and challenging enemy AI.
