She and, somehow, Rob Schneider, really made that movie. They really committed to the bit.

But obviously there are times one uses soap. It’s part inside, part outside. You have to keep outside out of inside.

Stick with MacOS, Apple isn’t shitting the bed nearly as hard as MS(lop). If you really want to switch, Mint is nice as a starter, and Bazzite, while intended for gaming, is mich, much more solid than I expected and is totally usable as a daily driver.

Those are cherries that are not yet Marachino. Light-colored cherries are used because the darker ones don’t bleach enough to look good with the dye they use. Maraschino cherries are whatever color they are dyed with (usually red).

Windows 95 had the music video for Weezer’s Buddy Holly on the install disc.

Absolute truth. I haven’t run into a single game that doesn’t run on my second-from-top-of-the-line gaming PC I built last year under Linux. I know they exist because I see articles about a developer removing Proton support for odd reasons, but it hasn’t impacted me yet.

MS has largely made their own OS irrelevant by putting the Office Suite in the cloud. If you need Excel but don’t want Copilot throwing all your screengrabs to Redmond a box running Ubuntu or Mint or Bazzite or MacOS (a legit option for some people with niche applications that cater to the Apple crowd). MS is following the same playbook with the Xbox brand. If everything is an Xbox then why would you harness yourself to a crappy MS branded one?

Apple’s making it easy these days. Mac Minis are cheap and more than enough computer for 95% of people’s tasks, while also using sipping watts. I’m on a M4 Mac Mini and it’s using 3.91 watts right now. I’ve run it at full tilt for extended periods of time and I barely heard the fan. It even runs BG3 somehow.

That said, the power button being on the bottom is dumb but not a real issue. MacOS’s assumption that you’re going to be using a trackpad is annoying for those of us with nice mice. Actually, MacOS is just annoying in a lot of ways. I get that the bumpers are there to keep people from causing long lines at Genius Bars, but I wish there were just a single button that I could hit that tell the machine I know my way around a *nix and don’t need to be babied at every turn.

Looks like the old school iPad dock connection.

That shit’s been going on for way longer than South Park has existed.

New, programmable analog chips that perform basic sound processing aren’t retro. The article is worth reading.

Very true. The last decade and a half have just been switching between round and square corners with mild spec bumps. VR was supposed to be it I think, but it just isn’t useful enough.

Don’t pet strange dogs on the top of their head, to them it feels like you are trying to dominate. Pet them on the shoulder or chest with your hand visible to them. Better yet, let the dog come to you and leave it alone if it doesn’t.

Gen Z isnt partying or fucking nearly as much as Millenials and Gen X did. They’re inside kids.

Narf indeed.

thank god we didn’t see a massive wave in inflation out of that.

Where are you that hasn’t seen massive inflation since COVID?

I think they conflated multimode with DWDM.

Some people get off on toe sucking and porn is produced featuring it. If you put someone else’s face in porn that they didn’t consent to be in you’re on the wrong side of ethics.

Those horrible bastards are more wrong and should be stopped, but nonconsentual porn isn’t right.

It means in most states workers comp is the sole relief for an injured worker. All injuries are considered no-fault and the injured worker has no right to go after their employer unless they can prove that their employer intended to do harm. The injured workers only gets the medical treatment and whatever disability payout workers comp tosses their way.

So, if your supervisor is drinking at work and ignoring warnings about dangerous equipment and then you get hurt by that equipment, you cannot sue. If your supervisor wrote an email about how they didn’t fix some equipment so that it would hurt someone and you get hurt by that equipment, you might be able to sue.

Not so fun fact: depending on the state you live in, you may not be able to sue your employer if you are injured due to their negligence. If you work in an unsafe place you should document and report what you see to the relevant authorities and then find a new job
