Your probably right.

There a completely separate issue though.

The woman was German.

Why would Israel give a shit about these people murdering Germans?

If anyone would be making a measured response it should be Germany.

If it was my daughter being paraded through the streets dead, I wouldn’t be thinking about a very measured response right now. I’d probably be trying to level the entire country.

Duck duck go needs a lot of work to replace Google search.

I’ve used it for years but often I still get the shits and just bring Google up after duck duck go fails to find what I’m looking for.

I bought my wife a 'fake ’ diamond ring for the engagement ring.

She couldn’t tell her snooty friends that though, so she went and bought herself a very expensive ring with real diamonds.

She had the ring I bought her melted into my wedding band. I hate jewellery though so had no intention of wearing it. I agreed to wear it for a week after we got married. I’ve never worn it again. I haven’t even seen it since that first week. Over a decade. I wonder if it’s just lost, or she has it somewhere still.

I don’t care enough to ask.

It’s a short sighted argument to say baddies don’t follow the rules so your only restricting honest people.

In Australia assault rifles and automatics are just outright banned. You need a licence to own any type of gun, which takes 6 months waiting for background checks to be done. Guns must be kept in Safes etc.

So whilst a baddie might want to get an assault rifle and go on a kill rampage he can’t. There just aren’t any around. You can’t break in to a house and steal one.

Can organised crime get them? Sure. But that’s not what this is trying to stop. It’s preventing the impulsive bat shit crazy person going on a rampage.

It absolutely helps, as proven by Australias lack of mass shootings.

People who want to go hunting still can.

Seems pretty easy to control though.

Once spammer is detected, you just ban them and the account that invited, all the way up a down that invite tree.

My employer told us all the rumours were true. Layoffs were happening. They called it “difficult conversations” instead of firings.

About 1/5th of a team of 1000 people.

Apparently they hadn’t decided who yet.

Meanwhile we just received the biggest bonus in the companies history due to historic profits.

Then the CEO told investors that they expect a big pickup early next year and will need to hire a bunch of people to handle the demand.

So they are firing a bunch of people for 6 months to hit financial targets in the back half of the year before hiring people again.

Everyone that is to be fired is still waiting to find out who will be axed.

I have a fucked knee but it has nothing to do with my personality.

I just can’t run.

I still try when I play with the kids and end up limping around for a few days.

I don’t really understand what this image is implying.

Yeah, the issue is, the laptop is full of photos. She took it to Apple after I failed to figure it out. They said they can wipe it but not recover the photos.

It’s just a crap system.

I don’t agree with the Mac one.

The Mac UI is basically windows 3.1.

It’s absolutely awful.

Also, windows will never brick your machine because of a full hard drive. My wife has a shitty MacBook air. She filled the drive completely. The OS can no longer function. It boots and that’s it. You can’t open anything, you can’t delete anything. Every single click says free up HDD space, even deleting files.

It’s so fucking bad.

I don’t see any of this. It’s probably because I ran https://christitus.com/windows-tool/ right after install.

I think it disables all the annoying parts of windows and you just get left with a stable OS.

For example, how do I have the best experience gaming… Switch to Lin… Oh ಠ_ಠ

This is the way

It was never worth the stupid value it was pumped up to. Why do you think Elon has been dumping so much of it.

I work a 9 day week. It’s shit. 4 day work week only works if you don’t have to do a 38hr week crammed into the remaining days.

I have to do 9 hr days to get that day off. The Friday I have to work is only a 4 hr day.

I often dream about just working all 7 days just so each day is shorter. If I did 4 hrs on Saturday and Sunday I could just do 7 hr days.

I fucking hate 9 hr days. I’m completely over it by 6 hrs.

I also consider just cutting back my hours to 24hrs, but then I think about my retirement. I don’t want to be super poor when I’m old so I need to work as much as possible for the next 10 years atleast before dialing back a bit until retirement.

I can. Have a meeting in Citrix and I happily work while people yabber on in the background.

The real killer is the face to face meetings. My group supervisor now demands anyone in the office on a particular day go into his office for the team meeting. That’s a real time waster.

People online can’t hear us properly standing around in his office. Can’t get work done while standing in there.

Just let me work from home so I don’t have a bunch of people wander over to me to ask stupid questions during the day.

If you want something send me an email and I’ll get to it when I have time. Walking into my space, making me take my noise cancelling headphones off so you can yabber at me and break my concentration is so annoying.

I’m untouchable at home. I work until I need a break, then quickly sort questions and queries, then get back into my groove for another hour or two.

I flipped around a few different distros to try them out.

As it currently stands IMO Linux won’t be taking market share from Windows.

I actually think the best use case for Linux is for the very old. People that want their computer to work and never change. They only need a browser and a word processor and email. I considered setting up Mint for my mum’s PC just so its a consistent and solid experience forever.

She likes playing the Windows card games though with the score board so it ruled it out.

I’ve tried several times. I’m pretty test savvy. Last time I tried I said I’m sticking with it for 3 months minimum to get a grip on it.

I lasted about 4 months before I went back to windows.

It just makes life hard. Windows might be tracking every moment of my usage but it just works as Jensen would say.

The amount of hours I spent reading posts and forums trying to figure out how to get things working the way I wanted.

Linux really needs to unify a bit. Stop being so fragmented. It’s all stupid having different versions of Linux that require different versions of software to work.

Until a single common standard is adopted it will never gain traction.

Plus they need to get away from the terminal. It’s not the 80s anymore.
