this feels like an intro to a sick pico-8 game. well done!

This is disappointing to see - especially since I like a few of their products.

I’m not sure how it is in London, but there’s a strong government push to get people to go back to office (the city). Since politics is every politicians side hustle, and a lot of them own commercial real estate that’s been tanking post pandemic, I feel like they are forcing companies to bring people back to re-inflate the real estate value.

Since companies can’t outright say it’s the government, they have to come up with excuses.

The worst part is I don’t know what’s worse: if I’m wrong or if I’m right :(

don’t forget the second part where i quit something i’m good at because i don’t immediately see exponential growth which means my current abilities are a mere fluke

I’d recommend doing a dual boot sooner and slowly shifting your files & apps. It took me about 3 months to find a distro and desktop environment i like, get my apps or alternatives installed, and get used to it.

If you wait until EOL, you may be overwhelmed and frustrated, increasing the likelihood of calling quits and accepting Windows 11.

i appreciate your effort and not just adding the entire Grimes album

You have to wonder if these “leaders” of big companies have families or hobbies or like doing literally anything normal.

Being addicted to working and hoarding money beyond reason is an addiction at the end of the day and it has wide reaching impact. They need to get serious help.

That’s how I originally interpreted it. I thought the difference in shading was to signify she’s a ghost. Unfortunately, I guess that’s not the author’s intent.

I wish there were more spooky comics though :(

This explains a lot. I finished my fifth book of the year yesterday and now woke up with a headache.

I’ll need to do something dumb to counteract this immense knowledge.

how can i join the cloud squad? i would like to float across the sky all day and have friends

“Well, I mean, it doesn’t have to be out of the toilet, but, yeah, that’s the idea.”

idiocracy is such a great movie! Mike Judge definitely has a unique style

Good catch. I got excited seeing this, but I can’t say I’m 250 USD excited. Maybe if I had more time to read.

If Gartner comes out with a decent AI model, you could replace over half of your CIOs, CISOs, CTOs, etc. Most of them lack any real leadership qualities and simply parrot what they’re told/what they’ve read. They’re their through nepotism.

Also, most of them use AI as a crutch, so that’s all they know. Meanwhile, the rest of us use it as a tool (what it’s meant to be).

I agree. I had to explain to a younger family member today that when I say “open notepad”, I meant the application that’s been on every Windows version since they were born, not to Google “notepad”

Gave me a crisis that people know so little of what would have been considered basic computer usage a while back.

Google owns YouTube

is this the reason Bleeping Computer made that article about malicious KDE themes? i saw it in my feed but didn’t think much of it

Same here. I knew there was a reason this shirt called to me this morning

The headline sounded good but the article lists a lot of negatives too. They’re removing discounts for veterans/first responders, they recently laid off 10% of staff, and their price now matches Amazon and Apple. So don’t mistake this for good intention; this is just a business’ survival instincts taking over.

Before they all changed their minds and supported return to office because of “their feelings” (aka ego), those people were known as “middle managers” and “senior leadership”.

it’s ok. i figured we could never be more than friends

or photo editing, in which case GIMP is better, and it’s FOSS
