Panda’s being the exception there. My wife is Chinese and it’s in their DNA that they have to love Panda’s. We have so many stuffed animal Panda’s and she has unique names for them all and I’ve been forced to create unique voices for every one of them. Her friend gave her a big panda stuffy and she named him snuggles and since we’re not planning to have kids, and she doesn’t like dogs or cats. I’m forced to provide voiceover for the panda named Snuggles.
Why didn’t your mother teach you proper grammar and spelling?
I know Lemmy is obsessed with Jellyfin, but alot of us have lifetime memberships to Plex, and will switch when hell freezes over.
It’s not, but they do sell adapters:

I installed Mint on my buddies computer yesterday and the install defaulted to ext4, and then had the audacity to have “Enable Backups” in the welcome dialog and only have RSYNC available.
It gave me the option to do my own partitions during setup but every time I clicked the link to do so the installer would hang. My buddy started getting nervous so I just left it on default. But I was very annoyed that I couldn’t easily just switch to BTRFS.
He linked to the Mass Activation Script. The same way I purchase all Microsoft products.
I have kleinfelter syndrome, my body doesn’t produce testosterone. I have to take estrogen blockers to prevent my body from making estrogen.
So I’ll be taking TRT injections for the rest of my life. The only real downside to that is knowing prostate cancer is likely, 2 years in and it’s already elevating my PSA levels. Right now my doctor feels I’m too young to worry about it, they only check it on the off chance that my levels spike into dangerous territory.
I had a UTI recently (thanks to the diabeetus) and for some reason I got constipated as a side effect. Can confirm, 3 days backup was enough to trigger this interesting event.
My company closed its Scarborough location, they opened a new plant in Hamilton. I was going to commute to the new plant. Everyone, including upper management told me how stupid that was. We have to run our logistics during the night because the truck drivers refused to drive in traffic during the day. Truck drivers… How bad is the traffic if truck drivers are refusing
Yup, with ya brother. I have Microsoft certifications dating back to NT4. I’ve never been bothered by anything Microsoft has done, with the possible exception of WinME. I have done thousands of installs for friends and family. When MS started actively preventing me from installing W11 to “older” hardware and requiring a login, I started looking into Linux. I had run Slackware in the 90s so figured Arch couldn’t be that bad… It was actually easier than I remembered.
That was 2 years ago. This past weekend my Dad had somehow been force upgraded even though I had group policies in place to prevent upgrades past 22H2, and he wasn’t happy with the result. Brought Linux Mint, booted from the USB and asked him to do everything he normally does on Windows. Almost all of his activities are browser based so I installed it and have yet to get any calls asking questions.
This was my issue but one day I found out about LinOffice a project that will run office in a container and the windows appear on my KDE desktop as apps. So I looked into it deeper and it says it works alongside something called WimApps (https://github.com/winapps-org/winapps) that lets you also run office but more importantly will work with Creative Cloud. It’s seamless, it’s like I’m running Photoshop on windows. Closing apps can sometimes be wonky but it runs everything I’ve thrown at it.
