…which, in and of itself, is sad as hell because one of the course requirements (at least when I was working on my CS degree) was Operating System Concepts & Design.

…and a lot of them hate the end-user, too. Why must we involve people in the whole computer thing? Isn’t an abacus and a box of crayons enough?

…and as such, a shit load of them should be jailed for perjury.

Alive & vertical.
- Comment on what was the last game you played in 2024? 7 months ago:
Nice! I started it 3 or 4 times but got distracted. Having a much easier time staying focused now, so I’m playing through Ultimate Edition. I don’t plan on doing the rest, though - will go to Baldur’s Gate 3 after this one.
- Comment on what was the last game you played in 2024? 7 months ago:
Dragon Age: Origins. Never got around to finishing it before.
- Comment on Planet-smelting sim Satisfactory is now satisfactory enough to leave early access 11 months ago:
I can quit any time I want. Pay no attention to the fact that I played it during a Teams meeting with Corporate last night and didn’t get to bed until 2:30.

Had she not been Galadriel, maybe it would have worked. I can’t look at that face and not feel it in the water. Or feel it in the earth. Or smell it in the air.

This should not have been a surprise in the wake of Kevin Hart being cast as Roland. In what world did that make sense?
- Comment on Teams apparently can't call when using Firefox 1 year ago:
Same…but with Ungoogled Chromium as Flatpak because it made me feel the least dirty.
- Comment on Shitsoft Teams doesn't work on firefox 1 year ago:
How recently did calling become supported? About a month ago I was still unable to even log in using Firefox unless I used a user agent switcher, and even then only text-based messaging worked.
- Comment on After Work Gaming: What games do you enjoy mostly after a day of work? 2 years ago:
I’ve spent the past few days building a thermal propulsion rocket factory. I’ve never built one like it before. It’s absolutely enormous so far, I lost track after it hit 40x50. Inside, it’s split up into rooms with one or two simple outputs each. The outputs are carried to other rooms on conveyors or in pipes on the second floor, completely hidden from view. Need to perfect the lighting and interior navigation, but I generally don’t care what the upstairs hallways look like.
It’s intense. I’m like 500 hours in.
