  I tend to use the names of angels for my personal devices (which surprisingly was inspired by this and not NGE)

  For laptops I tend to use demons instead, just seems to fit better (which actually was inspired by Gundam IBO but this is the list)

  For example:

  • desktop (Linux side) is Raziel
  • desktop (windows side 😩) is Azrael
  • main laptop is Gusion
  • eBay Thinkpad is Barbatos

  “3! 2! 1!” Is just what I say when doing some potentially deleterious action after rsyincing a few key directories to a separate volume

  Risk of Rain 2. And if that doesn’t work, Risk of Rain 2.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How long do you think we'll keep seeing "formerly Twitter"?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think one of the reasons why we’re still seeing this dome by journalists is because Elon’s takeover is probably relevant to whatever it is they’re reporting. I’ve definitely seen articles just refer to it as “X”. But whenever it’s a story about some crazy racist shit someone said or how poorly their advertising business is doing, it’s “formerly Twitter”.

  That said, I think online people who aren’t writing for news outlets and aren’t insane will — for the most part — always call it Twitter out of spite until the site either dies or Musk sells it and it changes back.

  I’d argue the pager explosions were just a different form factor of carpet bombing

  I think going back in time and video gaming Reagan would be a good start
