  • that's why they sell them in packs of 3

  • isn't there a famous only fans page with a guy who just reads stories?

  • there are a couple IDs in the device manager, if you look closely you will see where it changes, and then search the registry for that string and you will find how crazy Windows can be with USB hardware. Actually stripping out those ID's is a huge pain. I only know because of having to make legacy hardware work for work

    it was worse with USB1 and old drivers wouldn't unload so then when you unplugged them and plugged them back in, sometimes they wouldn't work unless you rebooted. Windows is stupid

  • If you gave yourself a reach-around, would that just be masturbating?

  • what if you are 50 / 50 and you meet yourself and youre both like "hey dude, whats happening?"

  • this would make a good sitcom, something in the style of Reno911

  • its for when you are really constipated, or just like that kinda thing

    the spring inside is for the extra umpf when it releases

    make sure you use the correct end though, my uncle will never use these again because of "the incident"

    nothing can prepare a young mind for seeing his uncle fist full up his ass screeming about the "cheap toilet paper roll holder" or something. But my dad told me later what he was doing with it....

  • get the carpet removed and put in vinyl click in flooring or you could get some hard flooring that could float over the carpet

    use sulfur soap for a few weeks, it will make your skin very undesirable for pests

    make some sticky paper and cover the area around the bed frame and make sure that none of your bedding touches the ground or the walls , it's my understanding they only crawl so you can trap them with the sticky paper

    for the most part, it's my understanding they live in the carpet and floors. they find you at night so keeping them from getting to you is your only hope

  • the other OS's don't store the configuration in the registry, that's the main difference

  • well technically.... USB initialization isn't that simple, when you change which port it's plugged into, it's numerated under that new memory space, so from the computers perspective, it's a different number, it's a different device.

  • I have been getting "unpaid toll" phishing texts recently.

    I find it funny because there isnt a toll road anywhere near where I live and the closest one that I can think of is run by the state, not a private company

  • you kicked the .ml hornet nest, didn't you?

    here's some ointment, now take your medicine and join the rest of the lemmies

  • Permanently Deleted

    Jump
  • she sends us all DM's, thats the joke

    from all different instances. its becoming a good meme. I suspect parsing the mod log for her name is a hoot

  • the enshitification happens at a smaller location level.

    look at some of the shunned/pariah instances. lots of people just end up blocking it or joining the instance to participate... what ever

    imo it will continue to be a rollercoaster of ups and downs that only a core group of users will notice but there's going to be drama

    because drama is how humans behave

  • invest in a tape backup, tape formats like LTO will last LTO tapes are cheap and durable. Write time can be slow but reading is quick enough for what it is

    sure an EMP might corrupt it but if you are that paranoid, you could use a safe for shielding

  • I turned it off in Windows but one of the latest Office patches does something that made it working in Word

    At first I was really annoyed but when it seemed to understand the spelling of a word that was not normal and then suggested it everytime I was about to type it, I kept it enabled and it did help me speed up the writing of that document

    basically a how to for using an old version of Veritas Netbackup that our LTO6 tapes are locked into

    I am migrating it to LTO8 and using TAR and LTFS, so no more closed source lock in

  • when I recognize someone is in a bad mood or something and they are about to serve me, I anticipate their angst.

    trying to have my request ready before they have to ask, force them off script in a way that will let them vent.

    like say your in a line or queue for something and it exposed the person you're about to deal with is that headspace... become their ally.

    did that guy before you not XYZ?

    They are overwhelmed?

    i see you got your hands full, please do what you need to do first, I can wait

    if you're in the no win situation, just accept it and let them have their win as long as you get whatever you came to them for

    it doesn't have to be personal

  • i genuinely turn it off but last week I was documenting something and I noticed copilot was trying to anticipate what I was writing. I'm okay with that type of help but otherwise it's just in the way
