- Comment on A last-minute SteamOS update has saved Doom: The Dark Ages on Steam Deck, and it runs surprisingly okay-ish 3 hours ago:
Does this mean the game will be playable without (extra) issue on Linux at release date ? That would be kinda nice :)

Is this the ultra compressed wood that Nile Red was trying to reproduce? Bullet proof wood / Nile Red / YouTube

It will be hard for me to not buy this game. I am a huge fan of the previous 2 games (extensions included). But I will wait at least 2 weeks and check the ratings on Proton DB before anything.

It use to be a way to not waste stale bread. Nowdays, it’s mostly a fancy dish using freshly made brioche.

Seeing gold sheet on food is an immediate red flag for me. Pretentious and useless, it’s a strong sign a restaurant is trying to sell mediocre food at an inflated price. Other red flags are truffle and foie gras, although those can legitimately taste delicious, if you see the triple combo gold, truffle, foie gras there is a 95% chance it’s horseshit.

You probably haven’t activate Bitlocker. Up until now it was optional with Windows. I would argue it isn’t necessary for a desktop computer at home, but you should seriously consider activating disk encryption for a laptop.

Bitlocker encrypts your drive, not single files. Once the computer is booted up, it’s completely transparent to the user.

- Comment on What do office workers actually do? 3 weeks ago:
I am a project manager for an automotive part maker.
My job is emails, tickets and meetings on the computer all day every day.
My job is to make sure the engineers work on the correct tasks at the right time. I am responsible for the planning and delivering on time (delivery is a part with mechanical, electronic and software working together correctly). I am responsible to keep the project within the budget. I decide on priorities, what the team needs to be working on first, second and third. I am responsible for making the team work according to the quality process, which means they must follow to correct steps, design rules, reviews and create the appropriate documentation.
I can tell you, sitting in front of the screen all day, is harmful to health (in a different way than a physical job is). For example, almost everyone I work with is wearing glasses, my own vision has degraded a lot.

I once bought a pack of maybe 40 number 7 in all 4 colors, I am basically committed for life.
But these fuckers dry out if you don’t use them for a long time, I had to throw away a bunch. I tried receiving some by soaking them in Isopropyl alcohol, it worked for some but not all.

- Comment on Why I recommend against Brave. 1 month ago:
A Web browser is a complex piece of SW that needs to provide many, many, features and work with great performance. Therefore you need a large team of experienced developers (full-time and maybe volunteers) collaborating on the development and testing. This is cost in labor a d infrastructures (servers, storage, Internet connection, hosting of platforms, etc)
One such feature that is a must-have is playing videos, from YouTube, Netflix, Prime, Twitch and what have you. Most widely spread video codecs are proprietary, you need a license to implement the decoder and these licenses are expensive. H.264 is one such codec, very widely spread across many content and platforms. You wouldn’t want a Web browser that lacks the ability to decide H.264 videos. There are many such codecs that are considered essential, and this cost a lot of money in total.
In conclusion, is an argument as why developing a web browser costs money and requires a sustainable financial plan to persist, even though it is open-source and developed mostly by volunteers.
My personal opinion: advertisement sucks. I don’t want it anywhere in my life. I would prefer to pay upfront for my web browser if it come to this.

- Comment on Thinkpad for the win 2 months ago:
ThinkPads do scratch, but they are ugly from factory so that no one has to be anxious about it. That’s the beauty of it. They also are very prone to collect finger smudges with their strange plastic soft coating. Very hard to clean even with detergent. I would know because I am a freak about keeping my laptop clean, and I can tell you from all the ThinkPads have used in the past 10 years that you will touch them the first time taking them out of the box and they will never look clean ever again.

Truth is, the man is doing the right move to save his life.
Crocodiles have very tough skin, I doubt he will manage to kill it with the knife before the crocodile chew him to dead.
However, the crocodile will likely split him out as soon as he realizes it is biting into a large piece of shit.
