“Traveling” 🤨

To all of the authors below who have disparaging opinions on the UX/UI experience and or the download ability. It’s a volunteer project for a reason. If you have such grand ideas and abilities put your money where your fingers are and fucking sign up.

What a monumental asshole.

Reported an issue with the name. I know I’m shouting into the void on this but a small poke in the eye makes me feel better.

Ding! Which means the person is low key pimping their child out.

They won’t or can’t get their anti-cheat/DRM in as a kernel module. Would you trust that bunch of fucks to not screw something up terribly by trying to pop in something like that?

No, this is not a humanity problem. This is a capitalism problem. Companies are not beholding to their customers, they are beholden to stock owners. It is no longer in their best interest to make customers happy, it’s in their best interest to provide ROI for their investors. Every software product hits a point of diminishing returns. There are no new amazing features to woo new customers, it is a mature product that only has incremental features. When this happens, you either flip to a subscription model and parasitize your user base, or sell to another vendor, management group, or some other entity who does it after you’ve been paid out. If we had better controls on mergers and buyouts there would be active competition to foster diversity and keep prices down, but when companies buy all their competition and all of the small companies who make products and enhancements for their base, it’s a lose lose situation for the end users. This is my jaded two cents after a quarter century of being in the IT/AEC field in the direct line of this enshittification process from multiple companies across the spectrum.

I’ll take access point bombing for 1000 Alex. I see several in wall and wall-mounted varieties in the immediate future of that place… 😂

No, it is on Best Buy. They could’ve shipped it via a known carrier but elected to go a cheaper route to save money. One bad egg doesn’t work when you’re a large company. Raise the price five dollars or eat the shipping costs and use UPS.

Word of warning. Novalgin (Dipyrone/metamizole) will completely fuck your white blood cells.

You sometimes have to be careful with corn… I picked up some cheap bird food with corn in it, the squirrels got into it and buried kernels all around the yard. My wife just about went crazy yanking corn sprouts out of our and the neighbors yard! 😄

I somehow doubt that lack of competition ever lowered a price, and being in Kroger’s home state I can tell you prices haven’t exactly dropped…

Waaaayyy back in the day Dell had a real bad habit of limiting their low and midrange laptops to pitiful amounts of memory to stratify their product line even though the chipset might support more.

I wonder why they went with a version of Windows 11 Pro instead of Windows 11 Pro for workstations?

Oh holy hell, I remember that from back in the day. That was more than borderline inappropriate then, now? Yowza. I think the other horrific one was Battle Programmer something or another?

I dig the glasses!

I tried to get to the printer settings today on a users machine and it kept redirecting me to the settings menu… 😠

It’s supposed to be tuned more toward heavy workflows, such as rendering and CAD. It has support for more RAM (6TB) and quad SMP along with ReFS, and SMB Direct.

I only found out about it because we needed a beastly set up for combining lidar and drone aerials in Autodesk.

My wife likes their blue agave sriracha, I think it’s OK but personally I like their serrano sauce. I think the flavors in the heat blend well with a wider variety of food.

I don’t know when or how, but it seems in my lifetime we went from that. Having corporations that just did something well and left it at that to this idiotic grow or die mentality that seems to be fueled by investor ROI.
