I’m dreading their outcome…

Yes.

From the article:“On February 10, 2023, user “Swag Gucci Balenciaga Corndog” on Steam completed this bounty and summitted proof of his run.”

In a public phone booth, accessible to everyone. Later then, you had the chance to opt out of the phone book “service”, here in Geemany that was around the time alternative phone providers appeared. Now seems to be default, so you got to watch to whom you give your number.

Fallen Haven, Master of Orion (except 3, which was really shit). Elite (PC). Played elite almost constantly after school.

As a German I would suggest to burn these stores down.

Middle of the night, semidarkness, walking to the loo. Looking up…

Interesting thought. I think most issues stem from bigot assholes who consume the produce but are not allowed to due to their background/upbringing/social “norms”. And those within their normative set not willing to provide, because of the same background/upbringing/social context.

Also, w/o currency there will be other forms of compensation, like a certain amount of work time, or… (p.e.) a handful of apples… due for a certain set of services.

Additionally there is always a percentage of plain idiots who would socially not be able to ascertain this kind of services w/o paying, and these seem to need to demonize the servicer to feel better about themselves.

Sry if I busted this comment, brain is fried after work.

Thy already wrote this will not be powered on 24/7, just lean back and enjoy the pics and story :-)

I also noticed slow dl speeds some weeks ago, and had to restart the download. Nearly did not install it out of growing frustration. But it worked out in the end.

Kewpie hits the dish soap very hard with me.

Thank you for that information. It’s a company machine, but if I ever get annoyed enough I’ll try it out. I just f*s my brain that they’re bold enough to change the UI for worse.

tl, did not read all. sry, tired.

“The reality is that while you’ve gotten very good at navigating the operating system that you’ve been using for the past twenty years, very little of that knowledge is useful in GNU/Linux.”

One could add “Or on the next version/release of Windows”, cos they’re breaking that “knowledge” with each new (forced) change on the UI. Yes, I want to right-click on a file and choose “rename” in a context menu, not choose one of a ton of icons, I want excel to open a new instance with a new file, and so on. It kills productivity for me to be forced on these changes.

DOS s.u.s.e. 4.x or 5.x

Keyboards you’re currently using a close second…

“he almost mocked the inability of the west’s $40tn economy to organise a battlefield defeat of Russia’s $2tn economy.” <- this really bothers me. There is no will here for Ukraine to succeed.

Very interesting link, thank you.

Would be around 300€ in Germany, on a cheap contract. Limiting myself to one combined NAS/application server atm, with the others turned on only if I want to try sth out.

Yes. Chuck some 5TB Seagate externals. They’re way less pain in the ears, cooler and quieter.
