  FANTASTIC reference! This movie is so funny and awesome, and it seems to have completely disappeared from pop culture. I never understood why Conan looms so large in our collective memory, but this movie totally vanished.

  You might be talking about Never10, made by Steve Gibson over at GRC.com. It has since been updated and renamed to InControl, and also works to prevent unwanted Win11 upgrades, as well as other things. www.grc.com/incontrol.htm

  The point you’re making is valid, but it is also worthwhile to consider that more than 85% of humanity lives in the Northern hemisphere. It’s probably not malice or idiocy that causes media to focus on the northern hemisphere.

  Thanks for your feedback, Kit. You may be glad to realize that I had already done exactly what you suggest I should have done, which is recommend that OP get checked out. Have a great night!

  Welcome to Lemmy!

  You might want to look into getting checked out for ADHD. Someone close to me was diagnosed as an adult a few years ago, and your behavior overlaps somewhat with their behavior. Many hours of making schedules and charting plans, but a strong mental block with putting plans into action to actually get things done. It’s more common than you’d think.

  Rage Against the Machine and Public Enemy come immediately to mind.

  100% agree! I feel like people are flipping their lid about this and it’s completely unwarranted. I have never had any issue with using lighting cables, I’ve never wished that it was a usbc cable, and I also don’t care at all that it’s becoming usbc. It makes zero difference to me. Everyone else on the internet talks about this like it’s been the bane of their existence holding back their ability to live their full life. Not sure what I’m missing.

  As of Aug 26, 2023, Windows command prompt absolutely does not recognize “ls” as a command.

  Powershell is a different story.

  Source: I type “ls” 40 times a day into a command prompt on my up-to-date win10 PC at work.
