If you want to have a tiny chance to see a perfectly good car get towed for no reason add “I have the part that fell out.”

I feel like I need OregonNukeSailor’s backstory. More for the name than the taxonomic viewpoints.

I really wanted to farm aces in the last patch and this thwarted me at nearly every turn

The van stereo is blaring “She Hates Me” by Puddle of Mudd

Are we coworkers?

I refer to the people here as Motorheads

I heard once that in the early days of printing (and literacy) most of Europe’s reading material was made for or by the church. And one of the things that was very popular at various points in the 16th century were books of hymns, many of which contained old latin hymns turned Christmas carols. It doesn’t explain the lack of New Years songs, but it may be why we continue to have so many Christmas songs compared to every other holiday.

I have all the keys to all the things and the delegation authority to farm out what I don’t know enough about. I’m not going to go lick the mains, but I have they the key to the building’s electrical cage.

If you know the group policy that will make my fans stop for the first time since I was forced to upgrade to 11, I will be forever in your debt. I do have admin privileges to the AD despite being pretty clueless to all things microsoft.

Its bad enough that humans are already stealing all the gator’s aid to fuel spectator sports, don’t juice out the little they still get.

It’s 2 short of “nice”

Much like xbox has become too little money for them to care about, so too is the desktop OS. At this point it is much more valuable as a tool to make people too dumb to do anything without AI.

I’ve been told I can have “not windows” on my work laptop when I’m eligible for an upgrade in September. Don’t know if that will be Linux (as requested) or a macbook. I’d prefer the former but I’ll be thrilled with either. This will finally be a microsoft free household.

That explains why they were so nonchalant about about their easy-anticheat escalation breaking fan made VR a few months back.

I always wanted to be a fly on the wall when they named the colony (later state) of Virginia.

“We should name this place after Queen Elizabeth.”
“Excellent idea, Elizabethia it is!”
“No, no. Virginia. 'Cause she’s never… you know. Wink wink, nudge nudge.”

I’ve decided all flash fads on Lemmy are beans. So, like botanists consider tomatoes to be a fruit, I say corn is a bean.

Can I just nap?

Backend provider for Realtors. New listing alerts and updates on properties that potential buyers were tracking.

I stopped hosting my own email servers many years ago, even when I was being paid for it. Any time anyone mentions DKIM or yahoo throttling or anything of that nature I get a thousand yard stare and and start to hyperventilate. I’m sure it easier when you aren’t sending 5 million messages a month, but who needs the headache.

I was asked to evaluate the last version of Gemini for work. I set up the agent, gave it a robust gemini.md file, and asked it about a bug I was seeing. It told me the bug was because I had spelled “Arrange” with 3 Rs. Except:

1. I hadn’t
2. Doing so would not have caused the bug I was seeing
3. 3 consecutive letter R’s didn’t exist anywhere in the code base

Gemini 3 really had no where to go but up.

Guillotines work way better than hanging. And when I’m in charge, the only crime that will get you sent to one is having 3+ commas in your net worth.
