I always give the money first when I buy something used to balance out the karma of those pieces of shit.
I would have taken the table out of spite and tell the guys to fuck off.

Thanks for the answer.

Original RuneScape
- Comment on systemd 2 weeks ago:
I am almost 40 and have been using Linux for 3 years now and I am computer literate. However, I couldn’t tell you what exactly systemd other than vague generalities.
I feel like there isn’t a generation of nerds, just nerds in general, that use Linux deeply and are knowledgeable about Linux low level systems.

Sunday is the first day of the week though. My time tracking software starts on monday and I hate it.

Because it is different for them. It’s justified for them personally. But everyone else is going to hell.
- Comment on Sony is testing dynamic pricing: one game - different prices on the PlayStation Store 2 months ago:
Doesn’t matter if there is boycott or not. They are letting the cat out of the bag and it’s not going back in.
This is the start of normalizing surge pricing in gaming.

It’s a lot easier to remove 200 calories from your diet than burning 200 calories more.

Yeah but it’s an awkward talk in the morning.

I get grumpy when I don’t sleep at home and I need to sleep with boxer briefs. It fucking sucks. Let me be an animal for the time I sleep at the very least please.
- Comment on Start-up idea 3 months ago:
Yes, I’ve heard about that theory. The boot example is good because everyone can relate.
- Comment on Start-up idea 3 months ago:
One caveat I would note: lots of people can’t afford expensive, durable appliances.
It’s expensive to be poor.
- Comment on Ah, customer service 3 months ago:
The typical customer service is 45 mins ++ of waiting on the line, to be greeted by an agent with a heavy Indian accent that will go through the script before having any chances to have a shot at maybe fixing your issue.

What about the other side?
- Comment on EU lawmakers to study ban 'loot boxes' and other addictive features in video games 4 months ago:
Loot box are still a thing, in a big way. Look at CS2 or the yearly soccer games.
And gacha games on mobile are a plague.
Lootbox is the first step, battlepass close second.

To be fair, the phone experience of increasingly more companies is just fucking terrible.
Menus over menus. Trying to get to speak a person that isn’t from India is pretty fucking hard. You usually arrive at a voicemail and don’t know when you will hear from them.
Might as well cut the bullshit and find a straight forward experience online instead.
- Comment on Anyone in tech confirm? 5 months ago:
Both can be true. You’re getting older and lots of products are a solution in search of a problem to solve
- Comment on Anyone in tech confirm? 5 months ago:
Because tech should be boring. Just like politics.
But companies shove tech in our face with fancy bells and whistles to make us buy more.
I mean, just look at PC where RGB is everywhere. I want a silent PC that I don’t see.
- Comment on Anyone in tech confirm? 5 months ago:
The issue isn’t the tech itsefl but the corporate world and its effects throughout society.
There is a lot of cool tech, but used for the most asinine products. 2015-2016 was especially terrible with the accessibility of IoT. Everyone and their mother had a Kickstarter with a common everyday item with wireless capability tacked into it.
No, my bottle doesn’t need Bluetooth.
- Comment on 'Huge respect to the folks at Obsidian': Todd Howard invited Obsidian devs onto Fallout season 2's set so they could see New Vegas in the flesh 5 months ago:
76 is a fun brainless Fallout multiplayer. I’d rather have a real Fallout MP instead of 76, but I can’t lie and had over 100hrs of fun.
- Comment on Last Epoch players turn on the action RPG for announcing a paid DLC class, tanking its Steam reviews: 'go play Path of Exile instead' 5 months ago:
Grim Dawn is not a live game service.
Last Epoch promised to only have MTX and pay only once to get the full experience. That’s not the case anymore.
Last Epoch studio got bought out and people were afraid they were gonna get enshittified and it is happening right now.

VMWare is popular for a reason. qemu is less accessible for the non-tech people of this world.
- Comment on Zero Chull 5 months ago:
You buy a cheap phone. No need to pay for license, setup anything except a vpn maybe and you are good to go.
Setting up lots of VM takes a decent computer, some licenses and a know how.
A phone, you just start it and it connects to a VPN and your good to go.

It is seeping into Canada as well. Not a lot of fully remote jobs. A lot of forced hybrid (usually 3 days).
