That’s not this quarter’s problem, silly!

What happens when I, a potential new Linux user, need to search for how to make something work on Linux and thanks to SEO and AI driven/created search results I can’t find the solution?

One guy tweeting “I’m skeptical” isn’t a rebuttal

That lectern isn’t even wide enough to effectively hide an awkward boner from the whole room. Not the edges anyway. Poor design

Maybe she has a master’s degree in it

I don’t know how people manage to use Libby. Always takes months to get the book I’m wanting to read, which is fine if it’s a one-off, but I really like reading long series

Mech mechanic simulator?

Worked with a Gen-X woman when we came into work and heard about the latest mass shooting. Another millennial and I responded fairly flatly: “another one huh?” She expressed some sadness that we were so jaded, that it’s just what we grew up with as normal.

Become numb?

Too late man.

“We aren’t the experts in planes and how they work.”

Also

“Very unlikely this comes apart.”

Into another environment?

I just wish I could send videos that aren’t compressed to shit. Who cares about colors

It’s a new release so maybe this doesn’t count but against the storm is excellent

Man this is less and less the experience I’m seeing. Months to see my primary. Urgent care I can get in same day, but I work at hospital that saves slots for their employees

I work in a hospital. I’m a PT so a lot of my job is recommending what kind of rehab someone might need after a stay after working with us at the hospital (outpatient, skilled nursing, acute rehab, home health).

United is the worst insurance for this stuff. They deny shit because they can, with no regard for what the patient needs.

We use browser office 365 at work. It’s on a Windows computer. I gotta say it sucks ass if your stuff doesn’t all live in an associated onedrive. We have a shared drive that common files live in and accessing them from the browser office is a mess.

I often play old games that have compatibility issues with windows 10. Most recently FEAR required a .dll from a site for a stable framerate.

People keep saying “gaming works” on Linux but are they talking about modern games? Do old games “just work?” I have very little free time to fart about with fixing too many issues with an old game. How well does this stuff work?

I used OneNote all thru grad school and while I had complaints with the app, the ability to have notes on my surface that updated on my phone and desktop, accessible anywhere, without tons of notebooks and paper, and the PowerPoints included in the one note pages with my diagrams and notes alongside… It was great! I don’t need a notes app anymore but man what a useful concept. I hope they get better with time

I mostly agree, but odyssey was a bit of a breath of fresh air for me

I worked for HP for a while in college. HP Rep. It paid like 14 an hour when minimum wage was 6 and I just got to stand around in best buy or office max, etc, selling printers and training staff on features. It was retail but without all the bullshit like cleaning the bathrooms or running the register or needing to hit sales targets, etc. It was a real kushy job.

About halfway through my time there HP started pushing ePrint, or other cloud features, and ink subscriptions, etc. That was about the time I think their quality really started to nosedive. Printers have always been printers (brother notwithstanding, but now it’s starting to slip with inclusion of more invasive drm and ink subscriptions) but before the onset of cloud based stuff, it seemed, I dunno, better? Not great, but better
