A tiny ass laptop running MX Linux loaded with some old games.

Makes sense. Sucks it never happened though because that would have been a cool idea.

That's all cool and good. What Microsoft needs to be doing is not adding shit to people's PCs without their consent and make it easier to remove them (preferably during installation)

Quake 1 is one of my favorite NIN albums, and it even comes with a mechanically simple but effective shooter game.

I was a faithful user of boost before I became a reddit refugee. I'm glad it was adapted to work with Lemmy.

I was honestly not aware, though I do know there was a whole thing around price gouging for GPUs back in I think 2020?

What do you suggest as an alternative? (Not trying to prove a point, I'm genuinely curious)

I honestly hate the human culture that exists around never being wrong.

Newegg has always been a classic for buying hardware and devices online.

Edit: Newegg apparently sucks now, I was not aware. Ignore this.

1. Pomade stick. Looks kinda like deoderant but you use it on your hair. I have long hair and get flyaways like crazy, especially when I tie my hair back. Works wonders.
2. A stainless steel Casio watch. Looks nice and will allow me to tell the time at work since I won't be allowed to have my phone on me most of the time.

Lots of job training.

I had to install a ton of mods to play it in a modern resolution, but otherwise plays well enough. Graphics are aged but looks good for how old it is.

I've kind of been flip flopping between these games:

• Warframe
• Star Wars KOTOR 1
• Baldurs Gate 3

I've been hearing good things about waterfox

1. 2002 Honda CRV I got nearly a year ago, been a fixer upper, but otherwise in fantastic condition for the price I bought it at.
2. Some iFixIt toolkit I bought off of Amazon, has come in real handy for many different things.
3. An acoustic guitar (Fender Dreadnought) I got at guitar center for nearly 200 bucks I think? Specifically wanted metallic strings, and it certainly has that. The high E string breaks a lot if I change tuning too often, but otherwise sounds fantastic and feels great to play.

Starting to be a lot more active around here because a lot of people (read: deranged spammers) have been posting uhh... Sketchy shit (putting it way too lightly) in other places (Kbin was where I was most active before) and I just don't want to be around that.

Can't bring myself to be surprised anymore.

I am trying to apply to some IT roles. No great luck so far since my applications have either been ignored or denied, but I'm not giving up.

A little bit of hard salami, roast beef, two slices of extra sharp cheddar, a squirt of the whataburger creamy pepper sauce and hamburger dill pickles on slices of nature's own thick sliced brioche.

I was wondering why I had mounting anxiety and some shakes, only to realize that I had not eaten for several hours. Roast beef sandwich and some chamomile tea fixed that right up.

I have been officially between jobs since after work yesterday. I'm just taking this time to work on myself a little bit, and maybe find something where I can actually make use of my IT training, and also work hours suitable for my perpetually messed up sleep schedule (second shift)
