Legacy Nvidia drivers a couple months ago? That was a fun time, lol.

And they’re willing to take on big corporations - iirc they were representing Austin’s mom after he was killed in the monorail accident at Magic Kingdom 17 or 18 years ago this July (damn I can’t believe it’s been that long). She ended up settling out of court, it was really an awful situation.

I started using Bazzite last year and it’s fantastic, but modding seems to be a bit of a headache on it right now. I think Nexus Mod Manager is going to really help that once its got more than Stardew working though.

Is that true everywhere or just in the US? I know that, at least a few years ago, a bunch of banking software in the US was still in COBOL but parts of Western Europe were modernizing their banking industry. I’m probably going back to school for computer science in the fall and had been considering trying to learn COBOL in my free time, or learning more Fortran (I have actually taken a programming class with Fortran, but because it was aimed at beginners it didn’t really go in depth, but I bet it’d look good on certain resumes). It’s looking like my future is in Europe somewhere, so I’m keeping that in the back of my mind while making decisions.

Sounds kinda like ok Cupid when it was good, but the struggle with something like this is getting enough people to sign up.

I just got off a phone interview that didn’t go amazing. I’ve done Zoom interviews before and those are less awful. Oh well, I’ve got another interview tomorrow for a job that’s closer and pays more even if I did really want the tech repair job.

We’re so fucked.

My mom is Jewish and I’d been considering doing one of those DNA tests until that data leak happened, I was glad I hadn’t done it.

Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

Is this what happened to Reedy Creek fire department as a result of DeSantis?

No reason? It’s for the best reason - looking at pictures of cats!

Because LeninsOvaries is such a silly username I wanted to draw attention to it.

I’d bet money that’s satire and only one of you had the ovaries to not mark it as such.

Oh look, someone posted the video I’m currently watching, lol. I wonder if he could have gotten Heroic launcher working?

Edit: Huh, a cli epic client, interesting.

although their single mention of LGBT+ has an asterisk next to it which doesn’t seem to reference anything

That’s an interesting acronym choice in 2025 and I would actually guess the employee group picked it themselves maybe a decade ago. The asterisk became fairly common in queer tech circles and it had started popping up outside of tech about a decade ago but has fallen out of favor and it’s only tech I see it in anymore. The * is a wildcard character, exactly like in programming.

I have no idea what you’re quoting but I knew a white South African in community college, he used to joke about applying to scholarships for African Americans because he’s an “American from Africa”. At the time I rolled my eyes and explained it was a term for black Americans, but I didn’t know much about apartheid in South Africa at the time and the more I learn the more I regret not punching that dickhead.

Are they just not sending their best or do they all suck?

Following Bernie’s lead and doing town hall meetings in Republican districts, which is where all of these sound bites are coming from. And he’s not gaslighting us or sanewashing the actions of the GOP right now which is refreshing.

I’m not sure what else he could be doing right now tbh, he’s governor of Minnesota and we’re pretty gridlocked politically at the moment - nationally the only thing he’s got is being on that losing presidential ticket, his main motivation seems to be the Democrats winning elections to make people’s lives better even if he isn’t the presidential nominee in a few years.

Long term maybe, but short term Barron is too young and the Constitution isn’t ambiguous about the age limits - and even if it’s worth little more than toilet paper it serves the Republicans to keep it around as a zombie so they can keep pretending this is a democracy.

The Fallout games you’d expect are in their roadmap, along with Skyrim and a few other Bethesda games, so that’s pretty awesome. I still haven’t played New Vegas even though I have it on Epic because modding is a headache on Linux right now and apparently not exactly optional for NV.

Sometime around 2019-ish they locked them down hard and it’s not possible to jailbreak them and put custom firmware on it, however I’m pretty sure you can still put the play store on it, I’ve side loaded it on my 2021 model but it’s still awful because of Amazon.
