That’s such a capitalist way of thinking. “The daycare down the street is never going to compete with ABC Baby Slaughter as long as their rates are higher!”
I make things with computers. Preferably artsy things, but I also like to work on random scripts and pipelines. I like D&D & video games, but don’t always have time to play them. I like pet chicken. I watch soccer, especially NWSL & USWNT, as well as some WSL and whatever happens to be on.

Non EV owners can’t grok how convenient home charging is, and the reality that station charging is a general rarity.
I once took over an app that worked like this. Access to one thing? Access to everything! And they had a hard coded admin password in the server code. 🤦 The client wasn’t happy when I proposed a complete rewrite. Eventually my manager begged me to stop working with them, so we did.
There was a place on Venice beach called Rose’s Thai Window which had the best pad Thai. You could get it mild, medium, spicy, or ‘Rose spicy’, which is how she made it for herself. Whenever we tried to order it Rose spicy, she would flat out tell us no. On the last day the place was open, before she moved back to Thailand, she finally made it for us. I lasted literally 2 bites before I couldn’t taste anything anymore, except pain.
Yep, I use for Xbox cloud gaming on steam deck.
I sleep well at night knowing nobody will steal my thing I don’t care about because I don’t own any. I just wanted you all to know that.
Fact: I’m shocked Linux Mint is still a thing. Fact: it screwed me over in the past. I don’t see how either of those statements can, by definition, be uninformed or not still valid. What are you trying to prove? I don’t need you to validate my life experiences. Why are you acting like you need me to validate your life choices?
I’m not trying to convince you of anything. I was genuinely shocked that Linux Mint is still around. Haven’t heard about it in years. You’re free to not take that personal.
Details are fuzzy at this point, but I believe it was a series of updates that kept having issues and finally one update that completely screwed up the machine, and in trying to fix it I ended up losing some important data. I was pissed off and got an MS Surface, and I kind of loved it, so haven’t been Linux since.
Huh, I’m honestly shocked Mint is still a thing. It screwed me over so bad many years ago, I’ve been Windows ever since.
Our DM, a dentist, so not in tech, used it to put together a D&D campaign, and so far it’s been fantastic.
