Hey, but Iran was begging for a deal only a week ago, right? Trump’s (sh)Art of the Deal is really working out isn’t it?

Just, uhh, leave all that shit on IX, with their Axalotl Tanks out of it.

Axlotl tanks aren’t Ixian though, that’s Bene Tleilax tech. It’s basically what’s left of their women.

Must suck if somebody comes to claim your stuff as part of a Special Veterinarian Order. 🌻

I’m using the latest GE Proton as well, installed Battle.net through the New Game/App dialog. Just found out that Battle.net does start, but it simply never shows a dialogue and therefore there is no way to interact with it. No taskbar item as well of course.

Solving vague issues with Linux systems is already a big part of my day job and last week was pretty rough, so basically the choice boils down to :

• Spend energy I honestly do not have on whipping Faugus into shape.
• Keep using a working Lutris setup, even though it is AI slop.

Neither appeal to me at the moment. 😞

Edit: the irony, just as I was about to give up an update for Faugus appeared, installed it and Battle.net now runs fine. 🎉

Thanks, but unfortunately it fails to launch Battle.net for me. Not really in the mood to debug that further at the moment, guess I’ll stick to other games for now.

On my system it was the only thing that actually managed to get the Battle.net launcher to work. Sigh, time for another hunt for an alternative I guess.

If they wanted to live, they shouldn’t have signed up to kill people for the empire. Instead of following orders, they can refuse them.

Guess at least it’s good to see there isn’t any difference between Americans and Russians after all.

Oh no, I’m thoroughly stuck in this hole. I sure hope nobody is going to ravish me. 🌻

I would definitely not recommend doing 45 on a German highway, or any other European highway for that matter, unless you’re in a traffic jam. 😋

If only onions and the like didn’t give me such gutwrenching cramps, love the taste, but partaking in anything containing onions, leek or too much garlic just isn’t worth the aftermath. ☹️

“Life finds a way” is a threat, people just forgot that part. Life itself is unstoppable.

Don’t worry, our Sun will take care of life when it starts running out of fuel, expanding and boiling away everything on the surface of our planet.

Shoot me, I like pineapple on my pizza. But can we at least agree that kiwi doesn’t belong on it?

Also, I came across a tiramisu pizza yesterday. Yes, they actually took the best dessert available and ruined it by putting it on a slab of dough. 😑

He ends the thing prematurely right after

No shit, they were going proactive on those new chemicals after all.

Nope, a Dell Latitude.

The only thing Bazzite smashes is the ability to boot my laptop, which was the be expected as Fedora also consistently had major issues on it in the past. I’ll stick to Mint, works well enough for gaming now that I’ve whipped it into shape.

One of our devs came to me with an LLM rewrite of some parts of our automation. Even at first glance you could see a lot was missed, the refactor simply wasn’t going to work in that state and critical migration logic just wasn’t present.

I binned the branch and did the refactor myself, as it would have taken more time to figure out the damage caused than just starting over.

So glad we now pay premium prices for RAM and non-volatile storage, just so some LLM can vomit up a reheated turd.

Lol, should I be impressed? I own a pair of Apple AirPod Pro’s, bought them in part because I worked with a MacBook at the time and admittedly they worked together very well. They now live somewhere in a drawer, to be forgotten for all eternity, as that is the only fate they deserve.

Sound quality (music)? Might be taste, but nothing to write home about.

Reliably connecting with anything that’s not an Apple product? Lol

Firmware upgrades if you don’t own an Apple phone? Rofl

Had to return them twice because of a manufacturing error (there even was an official replacement program) and Apple, being the cheap-ass SoB’s they are, would only replace the right pod as that one had issues. So of course two weeks after my set was returned the left one started acting up as well.

But the cherry on top: the other reason I bought them was the noise cancelling. It was during Covid and I would work in the same room as my GF, so being able to not having to listen in on her calls was necessary for me. The original pods had fantastic noise cancelling, where the replacements did an absolutely and utterly shitty job. The most important feature, the justification for their existence: removed. Great job Apple, great job.

Never again.

Sorry for the rant, the hatred runs deep I guess.

I suspect this is some kind of console error? I’ve only owned a SNES before becoming part of the PC master race, so just like the kids of today this early millennial has no idea what he’s looking at exactly.

For some I agree. But the response to the “I’m comfortable in my role” one I really dislike.

It should be fine to be satisfied with your position instead of having to eternally strife to a reach a higher step on the ladder. If that’s what somebody really wants, it’s ok and they should go for it. But for others that mindset will just end in a burnout and it should be applauded if they are able to recognise their limits. Work to live, not live to work.
