100%. I try to use open source wherever possible. If it does have to be closed/proprietary, I will only use software I can own, no subscriptions; and the only if I can get them working in Linux (wine has come SO far).
That said, I do still have a windows partition but only for job related stuff.
I have run teams, and I’m an adult leader in my kids troop, so I’m hoping to get into IT leadership, also been an architect, but I just can’t get much response to my resumes for leadership without any education on there. I’ve been shut out several times during to lack of degree, so hoping it might open a door or two. I don’t think I can get away from IT yet, but maybe can change my role in it.
That fucker had been working as hard as he can to get us into a war so that he can cancel the elections. His eyes lit up here: https://www.indy100.com/politics/trump/donald-trump-election-2028-war-zelensky-ukraine
I’m in that boat. Joined the IT world before the first .com crash, dropped out of school for it and never got a degree. I’m very stuck right now and I hate the career I’m stuck in. Trying to find a way to go back to get a degree, maybe open a door or two…
OMG, I do this when a drop is about to spill, it’s reflex, Can’t help it. But I’m always terrified someone will see me being so weird.
Glad to know I’m not alone I guess.
I am still pissed off about losing Force Touch on the iPhone. Haptic Touch is so much worse and slow. I loved using various pressures with good feedback for things that made sense. It was so much faster and more deliberate than the stupid replacement.
It felt like a great step in this direction, but instead of improving, they just shitcanned it for something much worse.
Same. I adore my wife, fall more in love with her every day we’re together. It’s not always easy, but things that are worth it aren’t. Marriage is the best decision I ever made.
I did get married a little later than some, just had turned 30 the month before we tied the knot. Maybe taking my time and finding the right one helped, not sure. Just knew it was her almost right away.
Nearly 50 and this is the first news story I’ve heard about quicksand in my life. As a kid, scooby doo really made me think I’d be hearing a lot more about this dangerous scourge.
Big quicksand really has a top notch media wing, they really keep a lid on the danger…
Nah, they are just letting her be the one to kill each and every one.
I was a bourbon fan when I drank. Been 5 or 6 years though. Glad I don’t support that industry anymore. Fuck ‘em.
I don’t know, I kind of like hearing about the ongoing dumpster fire. It’s been years since I have been to reddit, so its kinda nice being reminder of why I’ve stayed away.
Ha, what an asshole I am. My apologies.
From the same group of assholes doing everything possible to assist with the blockade of the turnip pedo-files.
I’m an idiot.
So, we’re at death camps now. I can’t wait to see what’s next.
Fuck every last piece of the shit who voted for, or couldn’t muster the care to vote against this horrific regime. I sincerely hope they come for you next.
Weird how all the “protest voters” I know, seem to have no problem with anything currently happening. In fact, any time I bring up politics, I’m reminded of how the real fascism was having to wear masks.
Current events seem to support that hypothesis.
billionaires never see justice
It’s because they have successfully convinced the majority of this country that having money makes you a better person.
It is, but I’m ready to officially throw in the towel and embrace the fact that running your own hardware is not much more than a hobby these days. I’ve preached and preached the value of multi or hybrid cloud, only for the people with money to pour it down the same hole time and time again.
I’ve always said IT is essentially an entirely CYA driven industry. Having someone to blame is more valuable for them than uptime, and if they can show their outages, even if the numbers suck, was not their fault (easy to do when all your competitors are down at the same time), it’s all good…
Update- lol, YouTube is currently down.
I wish more people would see it.
I’m imagining the next viral video trend on the order of “will it blend”.
