Many thanks for your service. 🫡

They tried that with Windows 8. It didn’t go over very well.

You got it Mr. Carlin.

Is anyone surprised at this point?

There are two that come to mind for me. I work at a big box retailer that sells a lotta different stuff.

1. One of our front end managers’ car caught fire randomly one night. I don’t actually know what caused it though but it was kind of a big deal. Thankfully no one was hurt.

2. Years ago, we had a frozen stocker who was pretty bad at his job, and was also a racist little shit. He worked with another guy who was a light skinned black dude (who was a very good stocker), and while they were normally fine, one day our terrible stocker got upset over something one day and called him a slur. It wasn’t received well, and some shit went down, but nothing serious at this point.

Now I mentioned that terrible stocker was terrible. Management had reprimanded him a few times already, so on this particular night where he was doing very badly, there was no more room for conversation, so he was fired. The firing manager was this super cool African fella. The firing was not received well, and caused terrible stocker to lose his shit. He stormed out of the office, shouting racial slurs at everyone he saw, and ended up cutting his hand with his box cutter. He then proceeded to smear his blood all over the frozen doors and then ran outside and smeared his blood all over the firing manager’s car. The police were called and he was arrested. No idea what happened to him afterwards. It was pretty wild.

Same. I’d recommend it to almost anyone, especially if you liked the previous ones.

Have a good time, good time.

Not only fly to another country, but fly first class and stay in a nice hotel for a week.

That’s real value right there.

I dunno that’s kind of an insult to Yahoo! At least it’s fun to say.

Get outta here with your facts! /s

Do you actually love the lamp or are you just saying that?

There is. It involves running a script to detach the video card from the host and attaching it to the VM, then reattaching it to the host when the VM is shut down, but it’s more work than I care to do just to play a few games, especially when I have other machines I can just dedicate to the purpose and leave my desktop alone, ya know?

I don’t wanna play Destiny that badly. 😂

No, until recently I had been using a VM with GPU passthrough for that, but my power supply is losing its efficiency and isn’t capable of keeping up with two video cards anymore, so for now, it’s retired.

I have a 3rd desktop I’m gonna set up for gaming soon so I can replace the Windows 11 with some flavor of Linux better suited to what I’m doing with the server.

At the risk of sounding like a meme… Arch on my desktop and laptop, Windows 11 on my home server/PC I play games with anti-Linux anticheat.

I also use Ctrl, or I waggle my mouse to wake both it and my PC (it’s wireless).

But… Why? Who asked for this? Instead of stuff like this, can we get feature parity with at least the Android app when it comes to the Linux VPN app?

I’m with you on the NFSMW 2005. It was the perfect racer, unless you were seeking absolute realism.

Hell yeah good for them.
