This was the first thing I logged on to see... taking the sign. Will be immediately closing after leaving this reply.

At work I use Onyx Graphics Thrive to process my large format printing jobs. Since we're out of support on our software version (18, current version is 25, minimum support is 22 now), I figured out how to manually alter their printer install files to fix a model change after a hardware upgrade. 🤓

As a long time Simpsons fan I think Jeff Westbrook lost the plot on Seperance. This is definitely my vote for worst episode of all time.

The old Nortel Meridian 616 at work died after a power outage and is destined for scrap and the autistic urge to convince my boss to let me take it and repair it is so real..... Do I need it, no... But I could have home phones 😅

I'm at the point where I can't tell if I have grown to hate the direction Android has gone with their OS or if I'm so deep into Linux and UI design as a programmer that I crave customization of everything at a base level... Maybe it's just because I hate how everything is an app of a website lately

My mom does this and I've never understood it because frozen foods in their cardboard packages seem to last longer by preventing freezer burn. Also, got to love the mystery of, "Is this pre-cooked or is this raw" 😅

Me: I wonder if anyone else is as big a fan of Magikarp as me. Google AI:

A search in Google "Magikarp favorite pokemon" and the AI result starts off buly saying "Magikarp doesn't have one single 'favourite' Pokemon in the games, bun fans often choose Magikarp as their favorite....."

Interesting fact Solitaire was on a lot of these early devices because it helped people learn how to use the drag and drop function on those newfangled pointer devices.

Wasp: "What is my purpose?" Me: "You run solitaire now."

Picture of a Wasp WPA1000 barcode scanner that runs Windows mobile 5.0 pocket PC premium. An antiquated device from the 2010s era of technology. It has an LCD touch screen taking up the top 2/3 of the device with a chunky bezel around and power button located top right above the screen. Below the screen in the bottom third of the device's face there is a cluster of buttons surrounding a circular up down left right rocker with a centered button, presumably as enter. There is an outer button circle of 4 buttons for quick actions with pictograms of papers. A checklist, a calendar and a letter envelope. On the outer left and right of that are single slanted buttons of similar size on the left, one for keyboard and on the right a clock with a house for home screen

I've heard a lot of good things about Kubuntu but seeing as Debian exists without the issues I had with Ubuntu I was hesitant to try Kubuntu when I'm happy in Debian. I really want mobile to finally get viable for a daily driver phone

Yeah I've been having to deal with all 3 simultaneously for years, Mac, Win, Linux and the only reason I went Win 10 on this at the time was a few things were just quicker to move over reducing down time My main A/V workstation dual boots debian / win 11, and run win 11 and debian Lenovo laptops.

Okay so long story short for simplicity I've been running my home server on Win 10, with the Win 11 BS I'm thinking it's finally time to install Debian.

My thoughts exactly, there was a time when audacity was the only option, at this stage in the game they have more competition.... I want them to succeed, but given their history I'm just surprised they're still chugging behind the pack.

Cole Sante Warner @colesantewarner.ca · 03/10/2025

I thought they'd be further along by now... As shitty as it is and always has been, it is a functional free DAW(questionable) and accessible to amateurs in that it exists. It can run on a potato so they have had that going for them... but like good for them chugging along.

I just imagine Donald insisting on lighting despite not bringing anything, and instead immediately going into a story holding it burning and lighting it again ad nauseum until it's gone and he asks you to roll another while he recounts how he's the best smoker with no equal in typical fashion.

yeah, they like it when pregnant people suffer and if they can vilify both autism and the parents of autistic kids at the same time, it's a real win-win for them. disgusting but pretty straightforward

if you want to understand tailoring, you only need to watch mid-century movies, when actors were dressed by tailors, not brands. in the 1944 film cover girl, gene kelly's suit drapes beautifully, moving with him, not against him. collar stays on his neck, even as he dances.

My boss and I had a heated discussion about minimizing waste from a 4"x8" coroplast sheet. Im for sq.inch. he's for a larger singular dimensional sheet. This was sparked because I opted to save an L comprised of a 32"x24" piece that is attached to another 16"x24"(48") section instead of one 24"x48"

How you're supposed to press control+/ while using a right handed mouse to highlight vs how I press it 9 times out of 10, because my brain won't let me unanchor my pinky from the corner of the board 😅

"Sitting on the porch with my rack out" Aka I got some new rack shelf parts used on marketplace so I'm cleaning them before bringing them inside.

A picture of my knees, looking out past while sitting on the porch with a spray bottle of window glass cleaner on the rail used as a mild degreaser to clean the three server rack sliding trays and keyboard attachments that are leaning up against the ledge of my porch and sitting on the rail beside the Windex and a spent paper towel.
