Challenge her exploding, closely followed by Chernobyl exploding. I’m sure inbetween there were parts of London exploding. The 80s were a wild time.

Oh cool. Thanks, I’ll check it out.

Agreed. I should have said letting the anticheat THINK it has kernel access, the same way WINE makes Windows programs think they’re on a Windows machine. I know this is an oversimplification and frankly I don’t even know what kernel-level looks like, but there has got to be a workaround that doesn’t drain resources too much.

Why? I have written a lot of custom macros and created forms to assist filling data fields in large spreadsheets. I have written written macros that can open a CSV, comb through the contents and pick out the data I need to fill workbooks.
I’m not saying I’m especially tied to VB itself, I actually find it to be a pretty stupid language, but I do miss being able to write my on functions and effectly use Excel as a pre built GUI for whatever I’m trying to do. If there’s an alternative in Libre Office that I’m missing please point it out.

That’s great and all but the two things that hold me back from going 100% Linux are kernel-level anticheat, and lack of graphics card acceleration in virtual environments. Once we have those I’ll be happy.
Visual Basic added to Libre Office would be really nice too, but I get that it’s not particularly feasible.

Well of course the first step is to tie an onion to your belt. You can’t burn CDs if you’re not stylish.
- Comment on Another WSJ banger about why the poors aren't doing more 1 week ago:
Mate you could have just provided the link the first time. There’s no need to be a dick about it. Someone didn’t see the li K elsewhere in the thread, is a little copy-paste really going to ruin your day? If you’re not going to be polite or helpful, try just not saying anything at all. We don’t need this sort of reddit-toxicity over here; no one appreciates it and no one will think better of you because of it.

How is this clearly defective product still on the market?? If any other car manufacturer had “features” that were so consistently causing this much mayhem they would have recalled all vehicles and been held liable.

- Comment on Xbox consoles are now getting a fullscreen Xbox Game Pass Ultimate ad at boot, just a day after a 50% price hike was announced 4 weeks ago:
If they’re single-player can’t you just disconnect from the internet? I haven’t turned on my xbox in 4 years. I remember the day clearly: I wanted to replay Call of Duty 4 and the xbox told me I had to buy the new Remastered version in order to play. Bitch I already paid for the game, why would I buy it again?? Turned off, never to be seen again.
- Comment on Elon Musk’s X calls for delay in Australia’s child social media ban citing ‘serious concerns’ about policy’s lawfulness 5 weeks ago:
Musk trying to frame himself as a human-rights activist is so cringe. Equating access to Xitter as a human right for minors while also trying to make out that his hate machine platform is somehow well moderated is pure insanity to anyone with a brain.

I won’t spoil it here, but there is an explanation if you go searching for it. It has been a long time, but I believe the comic in question was called A Shepherd’s Tale.

Did Donald Trump just reply to me? That rambling story intertwining word salad, along with the misreading of DECIMALIZED has me convinced.
Although I’m enjoying the thought of decriminalized numbers now.

Dafaq? Saddam had nothing to do with it, and a vast majority of the world knew that at the time. That’s why the bullshit WMD story was circulated as an excuse to attack, and still most of the world was dubious at best.

I don’t think they hate us, it just that they love money more. They can, and do, inflict untold misery and suffering so long as there is money at the end of it.

Kinda. Murdoch killed the NBN because Foxtel was not in a position to compete with fibre.
