What do parents do then when they’re working since childcare in the US is fucked

In my experience it has more to do with how much less frequently issues happen and/or how often you need to go manually move files/folders around. Just not nearly as much need imo.

Similar situation with mobile devices, I remember rooting/roming/jailbreaking being much more common in the past.

It does it on mobile

Smaller host sites are generally full of junk and difficult to use, plus can’t beat the speeds/infrastructure of something like Netflix.

Only the power of the all spark could solve this captcha.

I mean before social media lol, before the internet even.

At my prior company (we got bought out) the thin clients clearly ran a Linux system that then connected into a windows VM.

It’s been going on long before insta lol

I think it leads people to the fringe in general, I wasn’t making the case for right wing specifically.

I would imagine it gives you the taste of “everyone is lying to you” and then latch on to… Other people still lying to you, but it’s just randoms online, they’d never lie like govt or the MSM.

It’s easy to fall into if you don’t have the critical thinking skills to sift through what is/isn’t bullshit.

For what would make me completely move, I just want my games to work, I know a ton of effort has been made on that front, but Nvidia drivers kinda stink so performance is a bit worse or completely unusable in certain programs on wayland at least.

Stuff like Wabbajack Skyrim/FO mod organizer modlist support for Linux too, along with modding other games in general usually requires windows because of dll hooking being very common.

Lol I wouldn’t be surprised if I did, posting anywhere with politics involved doesn’t usually end well :P

IE was hot garbage, I was quickly a Firefox fan (I remember version 3 being a huge release haha) but yeah tons of sites were broken on FF at the time.

Chrome was generally faster and more reliably loaded, plus the IE view extension I THINK didn’t require admin rights like firefoxes did :P so I drifted to Chrome for a long while.

Back on Firefox tho, really glad they’re still around haha.

Edit: Made me think about the old ACID tests

Yeah kinda like the old days where internet explorer was the default standard lol.

Same, I do mean moreso building particular skills that businesses are looking for.

Yeah, given the state of the internal tech, it’s very likely the latter.

Same, literally can’t use Firefox (though i got an exception to install it) its blocked system wide from being able to access anything. Idk why the company hates FF so much.

See a lot of “no higher Ed, just learned from experience.” any tips on things to do to gain more experience in sysadmin adjacent skills?

I like to think I’m quite competent with Windows/Linux, been a computer geek since I was really young, in a senior “tech support” position, but the kind of things I do at work are usually less advanced then the random side projects I do for fun… I’m basically the Linux guy for our group but that’s not saying much as the support is next to 0 until you get to an actual product role.

It feels like you’d have to have the job to get the experience, but maybe I’m just not aware of what/if there are any particular projects or things to do that could help with more sysadmin side knowledge.

To give a quick easy example, I have a friend who just started a server maintence type role at a different company and was tasked with setting up a Linux server, she ran into several snags trying to set it up with the documentation she was provided by the company, I asked what distro was it, and what commands was she running? Turns out it was just that she waa given instructions for YUM rather then APT (it was Ubuntu) lol

Maybe they’ll reverse course with enough blowback, they did that once with ryzen already, don’t remember which Gen it was but it wasn’t going to be backwards compatible with certain type of mobos, but then they released it anyway and some mobo manufacturers did provide bios updates to support it.

Similarish situation could happen here, the biggest hangup I’d think is that the 3000 series is nearly 5 years old, and getting mobo manufacturers on board for that could be difficult.

Definitely fair, I was moreso thinking of an example similar to the ADHDmemes discussion about how bad our Healthcare system is in general, I’ve seen similar things to that and then someone from another country come in and clearly be irritated that the discussion happened.

I personally blocked feddit and a few French communities because I can’t speak German or French lol, if it was in English I might be interested in seeing the discussion even if it’s not directly relevant to my personal life. 🤷‍♂️
