Sorry that history doesn’t fit into your world view.

Carbonara was invented after WWII to use surplus bacon sent as food aid from the US and primarily served to American servicemen during reconstruction.

It is probably because I am a moron and just took a long time to figure it out, but its always harder to set up network shares with my linux desktop than any other machine in my house. At this point I know how to do it pretty well, but its a LOT more involved because none of the GUI tools seem to really work right.

Like I will share a folder from my server (also running linux BTW) and its instantly viewable on my windows laptop and even my streaming devices, but to discover it on my other linux machine is always a chore that involves editing a few config files and just kinda randomly poking around until it works.

Sure, they represent about one tenth of one percent of the people on a porn site.

They probably used it as an excuse to send millions of public dollars to the police chiefs brother in law or some shit, that’s usually how this works.

Steam doesn’t prevent anyone from selling their game at whatever price they want. They only prevent them from selling it through THEIR distribution platform at a lower price than it can be purchased directly from Steam. IE they cannot sell steam keys for less than the steam list price. If they want to distribute themselves they can.

Sounds like they aren’t paying you enough if your role includes being a performer.

Anyone that cannot figure out how to install linux probably shouldn’t be fucking with their operating system in the first place.

You can also just buy a live USB distro and install by doing nothing more than turning off your computer and turning it on again, which is even easier than installing a program in windows.

Furthermore, there is a very real argument to be made that you should NOT be able to EASILY nuke an operating system from within itself. Windows devs would be pretty reasonable to define any program able to easily do that as being malware.

Only the female bees have stingers.

Birds lay eggs and bees pollinate.

For the traditional story, birds are girls, bees are boys.

Hence the common UK slang of calling girls “birds” or in the US “chicks”.

Ironic given that bee sexual reproduction is probably the least analogous to humans in the entire animal kingdom and the VAST majority of bees that you encounter outside the nest (and the only bees with stingers" are sterile female worker bees.

Having a job that pays your bills isn’t “poor” by global standards.

I don’t disagree with the sentiment, but only in America do people view having a job and ONLY enough money to pay all your bills and keep you alive to be a fate equivalent to death.

WON was a multiplayer service that was ALSO a early foray into online game distribution. Somewhat ironically as the platform on which Valve’s Half-life was originally published.

The modern era of online games distribution is pretty closely tied to multiplayer hosting because those were the games that were primarily targeted for online distribution in a world where MOST games were offline and physically distributed.

Steam launched its own platform to compete with WON and moved all of its own titles over there. The biggest controversy associated with that was that Valve sent out a patch over the WON servers to move all the existing WON enabled games over to the new Steam platform.

Stop carrying about the quality of your output and just copy and paste the slop back and forth. its what they want.

The fun part is that unlike an intern, this shit isn’t going to get better at it’s job.

The most technically illiterate leaders are pushing the hell out of using for things that don’t make sense while the workers who know what they are doing are finding some limited utility.

Out biggest concern is that people are going to be using it for the wrong stuff and fail to account for the errors and limitations.

Shame they are going to send you a “battery protection update” that makes your phone last 45 minutes between charges on year three.

I’d bet against any plan that requires Google to not fuck you over for a whole 7 years.

That’s not who lost money here. Those assholes were out LONG before the rug got pulled on the dummies that bought this garbage.
