i run several mass-market consumer model laptops with the lid closed. as long as the vents aren’t obstructed, not a problem here. mine are all lower-wattage soc with integrated gpu, though; the most demanding one that’s on 24/7 is still only ~ 15w cpu at 100% load, and it never runs at that; it rarely even throttles up from the 800mhz it idles at. i stand them on end so the vents are clear, and use some lego to enforce spacing between 'em.

grape jam or strawberry preserves here. switch to the other when a jar gets emptied so i don’t get tired of one.

but then he’d still be smart enough to know he don’t know shit, and to bring in the smartest guy on the planet to fix things.

i have a neighbor that keeps her old answering machine because her late-husband’s voice is on it. she has no home videos or anything else… just a few snapshots and that answering machine.

i vaguely remember him. played outfield for the giants and astros, right?

“that’s ok. they were never an intended user base, they’re the targets.”
--some ceo, somewhere. probably.

so these crazy prices i hear about being implemented (like at github) should actually be at least 10x higher?

he’s stayed ‘busy’ since his sbtb days, just not in anything really all that noteworthy.

probably like the ones mentioned here rolling out in d.c.:

just the textbook ‘startup’ process: burn venture capital and acquire users at any cost. rug pull while grasping for profits, ipo before the dust settles.

anyone who cares about their reputation and career will stay far away from the liar-in-chief and his ‘events’

i literally forgot he even existed.

google would never apologize.

when did diaper-boy start eating from taco bell instead of mcdonalds?

are they gonna have ‘security’ at each one to make sure only those of the ‘correct’ gender uses them?

there is one other force that can make him shut up. one that has been absent for far too long.

i don’t like tiling wm, and can’t stand seemingly random placement a linux d.e. usually gives (if not just centering everything every time).

i use the kwin script for ‘remember window positions’ to get behaviour similar to windows. gnome has something similar, too (‘smart auto move ng’). so now a window for a program will open right back up the same size and in the same spot next time you run it.

just ream 'em on a receipt review. the franchisee here actually seems to pay attention to ones critical of things relating to wait times and quality of service and product.

the rare occasion where i go to mcdonald’s, i always go inside and order from a real person at a the (there’s only one here now) register. i want to exchange cash for product and that’s the only way to do it.
