It gets so boring

It starts so boring. I barely made it through the first season and some of the second. It was sooooooo fucking dull that I gave up on it around the time what’s his name dies in the desert.

“This shitty company has been shitty for 20 years, why do we care” is one of the most fanboi, dickriding responses possible. Why are you riding for Nintendo so hard given their shitty anti-consumer practices?

Just about any multiplayer game. I generally don’t like playing with randos (why would I want to listen to a 12 yo squeal in my ear that they fucked my mother in a pitch only dogs can hear?), and most of my friends don’t play games I’m interested in.

Honestly, Black Flag is the only AC game I ever come back to. I enjoyed 1 and 2, and 3 was ok, but BF was the pinnacle of the series (only partially because of the ship combat).

I’d love a game that’s just the pirate ship parts, that was easily the best part. Setting up supply lines, capturing ships and sinking hunters. Good times.

Giving up the right to silence is sub-optimal?

Very likely though, the longer you talk, the worse it will get. Therefore any technique that isn’t giving up your right to silence and council is sub-optimal.

Just checking, assuming ‘giving up your right to silence’ should be ‘asserting your right to silence’? Giving up that right would be suboptimal, no? Or am I misunderstanding something here?

As much as I second the rec for satisfactory, I’m not sure I’d classify it as ‘chill’ unless you’re playing on peaceful.

I’ve been looking at shapez 2 for a bit, but I’m worried the infinite resource aspect of it would cause me to get bored too quickly

Nextcloud isn’t a 365 competitor?

You’re in a thread about it being used as one, so that argument is worthless.

Who ever wanted a file sync platform that also does calendaring and contacts?

“Who ever wanted standard features from office 365 from their office 365 competitor”

Just be careful, the window may not have been installed and no one acknowledged that it was missing.

My work laptop had a pop-up from an application that basically said “we couldn’t restart last time, so you e got 15 minutes until we reboot your computer” with no way to cancel or prevent the reboot.

Me: the fuck you are

* proceeds to kill the service and process from admin command line*

Get fucked fortinet, I’ll reboot when I’m gods damned ready

You can easily erase permanent marker from whiteboards with regular whiteboard markers.

Thanks for the link, but it also says that the main character’s name is Jack in the script, and there’s a very brief shot of a paycheck showing his name as Jack as well:

Wasn’t Ed Norton’s character name Jack? I still quote

I am jack’s complete lack of surprise

They only really block access when there isn’t an official way to validate. Iirc, Louisiana did this over a year ago and pornhub is doing age verification there now.

Download the iso and install home. It won’t stop you, ask for a key, or attempt to activate later. It just installs, runs, and spies happily.

Well sure, anything is free when you steal it. Whether or not they care enough to come after home users, doesn’t change the fact that it’s not free.

But yea, know your audience and give them something they can use. I made my mother learn mint after the 80th time I had to clean the windows box, and she did well enough with it.

If you’re using a remote access product that is as water right as a fishing net, and have years of history of them fucking around with security (account takeover controversy in 2016, didn’t have default 2fa until 2018), you’re kinda in the neighborhood of getting what you deserve. This is like being on Facebook and complaining that fuckerberg is spying on you and using your data to feed their AI.

If this was still the mid teens, I’d give people a pass. But TeamViewer has been a trash product for longer than my kid has been alive, and anyone still using it should have done their due diligence on the software they chose (negligence doesn’t mean they deserve it, but it’s hard to feel sympathy when they chose to not do the research on a service that has direct access to your systems), or already accepted the risks of using it (so they absolutely deserve it)

Every person I’ve ever dated has been a friend well before we had any kind of a relationship.

Windows Home isn’t free (legally), you can’t just install it and have a valid license available without paying money. Most people think Windows is free because you’re paying for the license when you buy a prebuilt, you’re just not seeing the line item cost.

But either way, Home is a trash fire. At least Pro lets you control more of the annoying aspects of the OS. Home you’re just opening up for whatever MS wants to shove down your throat. And even then, just run linux. That’s actually free, and a better experience.
