  • The main reason not to drive in the snow is the way other people drive in the snow.

  • Yup. I'm in Texas right now.

    Watched a pickup truck run a red light, or should I say "skated" a red light. Fucker was going 40 (5 under the speed limit, but it's ice, fuck ICE) and tried to stop a car-length away from the light...

  • I switched to Bazzite from Spectre Ghost Win 10 about 6 months ago.

    The first problem i had, which was entirely my own doing, was that no games would work from Steam. Turns out, you can't run steam games from an NTFS hard drive, so reformatted and reinstalled.

    Only two games that didn't work:

    Planetary Annihilation, has problems with Wayland, fixable.

    Fallout 4, single digit frame rate and input lag. Switched over to New Vegas rather than try and fight FO4.

    Edit: I tried another distro before Bazzite, couldn't get Wi-Fi card to work, f-ing Intel...

  • Is there really a technology difference between Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11 ?

    Jump

  • Personal Opinion

    Windows 10 and 11 are the worst so far, though I didn't fall on the Win 8 dagger.

    Windows 10: Forced OneDrive, always running-but beyond useless Cortana

    Windows 11: See above, plus we did everything we could to hide interface options (right-click copy/paste is now hidden behind another click)

    I switched to Bazzite a few months ago, and so far the only game I've had issues with is Fallout 4, single digit frame rate, but ymmv.

  • I've been looking for a mobile Linux terminal so I can ssh without hunt and peck, if this was under $200, it looks like it would be perfect...

    Edit: If anyone had a recommendation for a non-build-your-own (I'm not in a living position where I can diy) mobile dumb terminal, I'm all ears!

  • I was a web developer for a few years, WordPress killed the joy I had. Every update could break something because the client wanted a website, but also wanted to use WordPress, so we had to customize the hell out of each install.

    I burned out about 5 years ago, and I haven't even been able to work on my side projects.

    I pretty much lived your comment. Working retail now, probably wouldn't go back...

  • 3.5" floppy disks were peak tactile feedback in storage: easy to stick in, drives had a button to immediately eject them, big enough to get labels, thin enough that stacks didn't take too much space
