The most important things are that they happen on a regular basis, at least biweekly, and that it’s possible to have a conversation while doing them or that there are at least enough breaks to have them. So, here’s a list of examples:
Does a just released mega patch to a 25 year old game count? If so, the 25th Anniversary edition of System Shock 2 is great.
What? I love spending my day going to meetings where I’m quizzed about things that won’t matter next week and writing Jira tickets.
Ubuntu is good, actually. It has basically the widest out of the box hardware and software support of any distribution, a decent default UI and an easy installer. Its downsides are that it has a reputation as baby’s first Linux so you don’t get any hipster cred and some people don’t like that it uses snap as a package format for some things, including Firefox.
Why not worship nature and wear special hats? Most of the witches I know do both.
If we could do it in a peaceful and democratic way that doesn’t lead to an immediate second civil war, yeah, I’d probably vote for it. It seems to have worked out well enough for Czechia and Slovakia.
Eh, California is mostly water independent. Most of the water that is “imported” comes from the Colorado River and is used for the least productive and least necessary agriculture in the state. Yeah, figuring out how to handle however much water would be lost if California were to secede would be an issue, but it wouldn’t be an impossible situation.
I’m pretty certain the first computer I installed Linux on was a Pentium 75 with 4MB of RAM. I know I ran it on some 486s booting off floppys at work. We were at 10,000 feet and couldn’t trust the lifespan of spinning rust.
Every three months for about 30 minutes I’m forced to use windows in a VM. It’s so awful dealing with the pop up’s, forced updates, and background bullshit that I feel the need for a shower after.
Same here. I can’t figure out why anyone uses based on what I read.
USB-3 over USB-A upstream sockets often put out 2.4GHz noise which will interfere with many wireless dongles, including those commonly used for wireless mice and keyboards. The solution is to get a USB2 extension cable or hub for your dongles.
Intel knew this would be a problem, but ignored it.
Ah yes, the ozone-plastic top notes with an undertone of Doritos and Mt. Dew. And is that a slight hint of cheap beer?
How the fuck did they get a sketch artist into my last checkup?
“Super Mario World”
Found the person from Europe a non shithole country.
Poly culture is a shared google doc and calendar for planning time with partners.
It is crazy to me that I can just walk down the street to a store, buy some pot and wave at a cop on the way out. Even crazier is that my kids schools fundraising auction has weed gift baskets donated every year from the local dispensaries.
They met, they just didn’t interact. Kinda like me at a work party.
Buttermilk roasted chicken is delicious, so I assume it’s a similar lactose reaction. And you’d use goats milk because you have goats.
How do you like it? It’s on my short list for my next car.
