I managed to automate one job to the point I had maybe 45 minutes of stuff to do each day. Pandemic hit and my amazingly uneducated supervisor insisted there was no way I could remotely do my job. When you only see the same 4 walls with pretty much no other human interaction for 8.5 hours a day you start to go a little crazy. If I’m being completely honest they came close to finding me at my desk the next day a couple times. I have not automated away my new job, but I am wholeheartedly debating a career shift, not because it’s difficult, because I’ve been burnt out for a few years now.

I’d honestly say Vance at this point. Both of them are indefensibly ignorant but Trump is very dumb and very cocky. Vance is very dumb but has shown to be able to follow orders really well, Trump might not do something because it conflicts with his interests, I believe Vance would do anything an old white guy tells him to as long as he is still starstruck.

I’m thinking that won’t happen until around March, if not by then definitely in May.

Huge steam library, RTX 3060, currently playing either 7D2D, or vanilla WOW over on Warmane (excited for the upcoming move to TBC which is around 17 years old or so).

I’m torn on the FFVII remake, waited 20 years and I feel like I was handed a different game; it is a good game without a doubt, and the characters feel familiar. After eagerly jumping in and playing a while I found myself longing for a remake of the game I played for months before saving up enough for a memory card.

I’ve played around a bit with Remotely (https://github.com/immense/Remotely) from what I’ve seen it’s great for when a family member needs some remote support, it also has persistent agents for some stuff. Personally for remote administration I LOVE Apache Guacamole, it’s super handy being able to use RDP/SSH/vnc/etc from a browser.

Edit: after reading the post it may not be what you’re looking for. I don’t think either of those would be good from an FPS standpoint.

I’ll admit I didn’t open the article, as far as I’m aware the best way to sidestep silly requirements like warrants is to just purchase data intended for advertising. Databrokers really have an amazing wealth of info ready to be tapped into, all you gotta do is pay.

Sadly I think it has more to do with the way Windows handles stuff in general. My personal machine seems to have no issues, LMDE with the foxes (Firefox/LibreWolf); my work computer though, Windows with the chromes (Edge/Chrome) seems to get confused the moment their is a second profile in the browser.

All that being said, I’ve definitely tried clearing the cookies and just living with it.

I tick that box a hundred times a day and can confirm it doesn’t do shit (at least in my work environment).

I don’t disagree they are their games, but is it their emulator, or did they just download one of the many online? Really doesn’t matter, just love to see companies bitch about something, then turn around and do it themselves.

Thank you good sir, now I have coffee on my robe!

That’s exactly why Debian is my go to.

Track-me-not, automobile edition.

Yeah, my son convinced me to try having one monitor vertical. His (Windows 10) is close to right, but dragging a window across the gap and you have 2 different size windows. Compared to my computer (LMDE) and it is truly scaled correctly, the window is the same size on any monitor and while travelling between them.

Still not sure how I feel about a vertical monitor though, it’s great for documentation but just feels so unnatural.

They’d just be looking at the palm rest for me. Laptop is closed and under the monitor stand, having it open just makes Window’s show how well it does desktop scaling.

Its painful sometimes, but good to know I’m not the only one questioning my sanity.

I want so much to ditch my Jeep Grand Cherokee for a truck (I drive to work once a week but pull a camper on the weekends), sadly a lot of them might not fit in my 1970’s garage.

I’d say it depends, do you believe that you could live as a vegan? Not everyone can, and nothing is wrong with that. I view some animals as yummy and others as not, I’ve never tried eating an oat tree, but I’ll tear up some carrots.

I like the idea that consciousness is experienced by all living things and am totally okay with a certain amount of it ending during the natural progression of my life.

Define “freeloading” for me. They don’t have access to big social services (TANF, SSI, etc) due to not having documentation, roads are funded through fuel taxes as far as I’m aware (so if they’re pumping gas, they’re paying for the roads), dog parks are usually paid out of local sales tax (again, only as far as I know, I live in GA and we’re a fucked up state a lot of times).

Income tax is a big one, but not on a small scale (like municipal level)… Hell, I haven’t ever had a local income tax that I can remember.

The rolling ones are the way to go. Saves enough time for the price, no way I could justify the cost of the fully automatic ones.
