Nah. It’s fine. I ended up taking an extra year to get my BSME. Nobody has ever once questioned that on my resume. Luckily, a few of my friends continued on to graduate studies, so I still knew a few people that last year.

Probably because people above the waterline don’t know Mozilla exists, and people below have seen how things have been going lately.

For a long time, I thought it was Fedora Core 4. I did use that, but I recently found my old burned CDs of Mandrake 8.1. That really took me back. I might install it on a VM for some nostalgia.

🎶Too many cooks!🎶

Hulu uses what I’m pretty sure was the ending credit song in the intro. Probably to avoid Teardrop royalties or something. I hate it so much, I didn’t finish the series last time I tried to watch it.

Oh, the one where the wife finds it is such a good one. With crazy updates. But that’s not the story. It’s the one where the guy parks the jar in the rear. But when the pressure is too much for the jar to bear, it implodes. The man must then handle the gruesome task of removing the shards.

Tried it November of 2024, ended up switching to Mint with Cinnamon, zero issues since.

Dell XPS 8930

i7 9700 (no K)

32GB ram

NVidia RTX 2060

240gb ssd

2tb hdd

That exact issue is why I stopped using KDE. I never did figure it out.

Wow, I was not aware of that. I really liked balena. Thankfully, I haven’t been using it since installing Mint.

I’m surprised I don’t see Battlestar Galactica or Star Trek Next Generation here yet.

I sooo wanted to rewatch that. But I just cannot get past the special effects these days. I thought it was great when it was on, now it’s unwatchable for me. It’s like, Playstation 1 cutscenes: the show.

I don’t know. I live a good female lead. Ripley, Furiosa, Marge Gunderson. There’s so many, that’s just the first three that come to mind. Half the time when I’m playing Fallout, it’s female characters.

There are definitely bad female leads in things, too. Just like there are bad male leads. Like, Borderlands 3, basically unplayable. I never finished it. And I really want to be clear, the characters aren’t bad because they are women, they are bad due to poor writing. That game had such potential, but it felt like the script was written entirely by highschoolers.

I know what I would do with my social credits. I’s get healthy.

I have quite a few. My wife’s favorites are Versace Eros, Versace Dylan Blue, and Dior Sauvage. My personal favorites are Mont Blanc Explorer, Mont Blanc Explorer Ultra Blue, and Viktor Rolf Spicebomb Fresh.

Honorable mention to Azzaro The Most Wanted.

The Pontiac Aztek. It had awesome features I’d love to have in my car today. Tailgate with molded seats and cup holders. Speakers facing out of the back. A cooler. Foldable and removable rear seating. MP3 cd player from the factory.

Also, Funko Pops deserve more hate than they get. But I don’t like figures of any kind, I collect staplers.

Oh, cool! Excellent.

Well, I’m definitely going to try it because some of those third party workbenches look pretty cool. And I like the idea of having CAD software on my new Linux PC. But I have access to NX from work, so it’s going to have some big shoes to fill. Looks like there are workbenches for editing meshes like from STL files, which is cool. My license at work doesn’t include that. Anyone know if it supports 3DConnexion devices?

That reminds me of a guy at a company party that was making lewd comments about the head of HR. He told the guy next to him he’d f her so hard, sparks would fly out of her vagina. Didn’t realize he was talking to her fiancé. Then, proceeded to grope another female employee. When they called him I to the front office the next day, he honestly had no idea he was getting fired. He thought he was getting a promotion.

OK, so we were having a Christmas luncheon at work. HR made the flyer. It said “Holiday” party. Somebody felt that was part of the war on Christmas, and crossed out Holiday and wrote Christmas. That wasn’t the issue. Another guy took offense to that guy, and made a counterfeit flyer for the company Cthulu summoning. It said that the human sacrifice would be at 12, lunch at 1 so bring a change of clothes. He posted those all over.

That’s a firing.

Oo, a ziploc bag full of spaghettios
