- Comment on Windows 10 LTSC – the version that won't expire for years 6 days ago:
I just want my games to work man. I have a huge library of weird and old games that I have spent years tinkering with to get them to run reliably on modern windows, I honestly cannot be arsed having to re-fix everything on Linux. WINE is not perfect and Proton doesn’t support everything.

Oh great so instead of getting severance pay they just make your job hell and wait for you to give up and quit

- Comment on Shopping at coles a terrible experience? 2 weeks ago:
After those goddamn gates closed whilst I was halfway through and tore up my favourite pants I swore off Colesworth unless absolutely necessary. We switched to IGA and NQR and saved about $50 on our weekly groceries and don’t have to pack our own bags
Fuck Coles. Fuck Woolworths. Shop at your local independent or ALDI if you must.
- Comment on Record enrolment [98.2%] ahead of 2025 federal election | AEC 2 weeks ago:
I honestly had a head spin when I was told the voting isn’t mandatory and they don’t get time off for it
No wonder everyone is so apathetic over there
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
I did the classic American thing of getting wildly intoxicated and then ordering Taco Bell, it was the most underwhelming fast food experience I’ve ever had. Cold, bland, soggy food that I can do better at home with a bag of chips and some minced meat.
I wouldn’t recommend it over a good old quarter pounder meal.

- Comment on Are most people here left-wing? 3 weeks ago:
Yes, this site is very left-leaning. I have seem plenty of moderate opinions downvoted because they are centrist or centre-right, and the anti-Trump, anti-Elon and anti-USA sentiment is deservedly heavy right now.
Keep that in mind when reading comments, this place is a bit of an echo chamber at the moment.

- Comment on JetKVM's Source Code is now public! ✨ 3 months ago:
Yeah it kind of surprised me too. HDMI and USBC is good for modern servers, but we have plenty of 15-year-old servers in production and even a lot of new servers still use VGA.

My last cert renewal was $20 for 3 years. That’s less than a dollar a month, not exactly breaking the bank.
