I’m saving up now to afford the lease on a nice certified pre-owned Dell in a couple years. My buddy Dave works over at the dealership so I should be able to lock in a good rate. And hey, with their super lease-to-own options maybe I’ll be able to keep it at the end! That’d be nice you know… something to hand down to the kids when they’re old enough for their computing license. Fingers crossed! 🤞
There is no sure-fire technical solution. So you name and shame, far and wide, until it affects their bottom line.

Using Solutions that Already Exist
No, seriously, you don’t have to build everything from scratch by yourself. Other people write code too.
Or 3. Hold shift, press ZZ to save and quit ZQ to quit without saving.
ZZZZ Write current file, if modified, and close the current window (same as “:x”). If there are several windows for the current file, only the current window is closed.
ZQZQ Quit without checking for changes (same as “:q!”).
Every American I know does pronounce it like Connedicut 🤔
Then you try to do anything else with that PC while it’s writing at 300 KBps and… buffer underrun. So many coasters.
Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime. That’s why I poop on company time.
I love Linux and run some Fedora flavor on just about every machine I own. I can’t imagine trying to run it on my sim rig with all the specialized hardware and software though. That sounds like a nightmare.
Hogwash it was clearly the fault of name of most recent developer to resign and take a job at another company!
“Our goal is that by 2030, we’ll be putting more water back into the watersheds and communities where we’re operating data centres, than we’re taking out,” says Will Hewes, global water stewardship lead at Amazon Web Services (AWS), which runs more data centres than any other company globally.
How can this possibly make sense? Mine owner says, “by 2030 we’ll be putting more gold into the ground than we’re taking out!” I can only assume this is some carbon credits style of nonsense.
I love everything about this, but this bit I love just slightly more:
Updated 4/30/2025: I have received hundreds of e-Mails from my flyer. I told my grandson that flyers still work in this day and age. He said societal media is the only way, but I was right. And he is still very thin. Thank you all for the interest, I will be in touch. -Theo
Grandad showing his thin-ass grandson who’s still the boss.
Git experience is highly transferrable. Unless you have some specific use case not supported by Git, why wouldn’t you use the one where the knowledge is most likely to carry over between projects/jobs?
I can’t tell if this is actually a new project or if you forked, extended, and changed the license of an existing MPL 2.0 project. The latter would be a bad thing.
You have a commit titled “Full rewrite!!” but I’m not about to go do a comparison to see how “full” it is. If it is indeed a complete clean reimplementation then I would recommend making it a new project so it doesn’t look like you took someone’s FOSS code and relicensed it for yourself.
Welcome to Future plc publications. Almost entirely clickbait advertorial garbage anymore. It’s sad, really.
Sarcasm is difficult enough to convey in paragraphs of text, let alone a single sentence title. Also, the Linux communities on Lemmy see the occasional wave of trolls coming in to shout about how"Linux is just as bad as Windows!" You’re starting out way behind even before anyone views the video.
Congratulations on going above and beyond! As a sign of the company’s gratitude, here is another pile of shit with an even more unreasonable deadline! You got this, Mr. Rockstar!
Teams is mostly fine these days and I think it’s the only MS product that is getting better over time instead of worse. If you have a competent IT team then the various MS integrations can actually work well to make Teams a usable one stop for comms, recordings/transcripts, scheduling, file sharing, etc.
New features are slow to come but they do come. The insane memory footprint became much more reasonable for me when they moved from Electron to their own Edge-based WebView2 thing last year. The preview builds have finally combined the “teams” channel listings and ad-hoc chats into one tab where you can group them together however you want.
Teams still pisses me off on occasion but no more than any other piece of enterprise software. It’s fine.
That kind of cognitive dissonance is what leads some people to give up ideologies like white supremacy. The endless rationalizing of hypocrisy is fucking exhausting. It’s a lot easier to just accept people as they are than build a whole framework around hating groups of people that allows for like, your neighbor, or an actor, or an athlete, to be okay because “well they’re different than the rest.” Or whatever bullshit excuse.
