I spent the weekend failing to make my civ mods work, with a thousand lines of notes… 2/3 in, I think “damnit blazeknave. You spend months perfecting this stupid fucking obsidian setup, and you’ve been here in notepad+ like a fucking jabroni.”
I laughed my ass off at this! So well put!
Today, my last 3 messages to Gemini were all pretty much: “cool! We’re agreed on the framework and tone etc in which you’ll communicate this thing to me. Now please, create the fucking thing already”
For an incredibly long time, it was their biggest money maker. Iirc only recently, M365/Azure has taken that spot.
Step clap step step clap
Right on. Really like it!
Link to desk pad?
I know them. I worked in this industry. They’re not naive. What basis do you have for these comments?
I think you’re conflating with business executives running said social and gaming companies. Stop calling them techbros. Meta is not a tech startup. They’re a transnational corporation. They have capitalist execs running the companies.
Looks like the novell(?) frontend to windows
Picturing Paul Hibbard looking at you in a way that says “hate yourself too, eh?”
It’s every game and the bigger the community the lower the denominator.
Good point. What about hardware drivers? Do the OEMs use OS support deprecation, as an excuse to bail on shit? Or are driver updates irrelevant to a dead OS bc it’s in stasis?
There is a link immediately over the headline in the url I shared. Read the report. I used to sell green asset disposition of electronics. It’s been an industry for a long time. It makes a difference. See what you want to see man. I can intro you to people in that business if you’d like to pick their brains. I don’t know who owns this at Microsoft but I can ask contacts there, if you’d like me to help get you an intro.
I think with the current staff in the ranks at Microsoft and leadership opening the ecosystem for end user devices, they could build something sound. (Don’t sleep on the amount of our world infrastructure running on their OS’s. They are trusted for reliability.) A decade ago I had to reprimand by team for showing up to a mtg in Redmond with a stack of MacBooks and iPads. Now staff have iPhones.
The problem is the business looks for a buck in all the wrong parts of their massively horizontal set of goods. So their Linux will be bloated with cross selling adware.
This is why we need functioning representative government. Something this big needs regulation.
No entity can own a percentage of the global fucking economy and be less accountable than a member of the UN.
Exactly. Used mine to learn Linux and proxmox. I’m also someone’s who would be here.
Good point XP held on forever
True. 20 yrs of selling enterprise, I’ve only begun learning and building it for the home as my kid has grown into a full person and changed my perspectives.
You mean my 6k Gmail drafts? 😭
I started doing paper pads everywhere and trying to log at end of day.
