I kept reading closest as closet and was really confused.

Meh, there are a lot of adults who behave just like children.

ED IS THE STANDARD TEXT EDITOR

It’s not a fucking speedrun homie. This isn’t shower any%. I’m usually listening to music and enjoying the hot water. Plus if it’s a wash day, washing and conditioning long hair takes a while.

This is the exact thing I was telling people when proton came out. Sure it’s great that we can pay Windows games on Linux now but it’s just creating a new problem where developers literally have NO REASON to create native Linux ports. Plus, while proton is great, it’s not perfect. If a game doesn’t work correctly through proton the developer aren’t likely to care that much so fixing it will fall to Valve or the community. I’ve also heard of games getting updates which break or degrade proton compatibility. The developer isn’t likely to care about that situation either.

Used to be OS/2 of some description but I think it’s more likely to be windows embedded these days. I fail to see how that’s revelant to this dude using an ancient version of office on his work PC though.

Is that fucking Word 2010??

My excuse these days is… I already built the damned thing. If there’s a game I want to play I can just upgrade it for (in most cases) less than the cost of a console + game to play the new game I want. PC gaming offers a lot of flexibility in that way.

ITT: people defending their 4K/8K display purchases as if this study was a personal attack on their financial decision making.

I work for local government and we were recently ordered to return to office because leadership was concerned we would look “lazy” to the public if we were allowed to work from home… I don’t work directly with the public in any shape or form. On top of that I’m geographically located about 1.5 hours from the rest of my team so I report to a different office than they do, so we still meet on Teams.

I actually enjoy a number of Nickleback songs. The “hate” was meme’d to the heavens but the band isn’t really that bad and Chad Kroeger legit has a good singing voice.

Yeah, and I tried MATE but it just doesn’t hit the same. I mostly use cinnamon and xfce these days.

Modern gnome sucks. gnome 2 was peak imo.

KDE MFs be like, “it’s very intuitive.” Meanwhile it looks like this:

Google actively shooting themselves in the foot. Why would I choose an Android phone over an iPhone if Google continues to remove features and user freedoms that set it apart from apple’s “walled garden”

I’ve been a Spotify subscriber since 2012 and I just recently cancelled. Dusted off my old MP3 library and set it up with Navidrome. It’s not perfect but it’s good enough for who it’s for (Me). I will say that I never really much used the radio or recommendations from Spotify so I’m probably a unique case in that regard.

Usually socks because my feet get cold easily but they come off if it’s warm and if I’ve swept the floor recently. Can’t stand stuff sticking to my feet while I’m walking around.

If you want a more simple video editing package you could give OpenShot a try.
