i’d like to have a graphic design community on here

Lol I was thinking this exact thing

Less than 100 years ago

a pneumatic table is definitely one of my must-haves this year… just so darn expensive

now that i think about it, this would be handy for remote support techs walking a user on-site on what to do…

“you see the 3rd switch from the top that has the cisco logo? i’ll need you to power cycle it”

2 hours later

“oh i found it”

vs.

“you see the girl with the blue hair? unplug the box her hair’s connected to”

can’t speak for others, but i’m mostly the quiet/introverted/lurker type…

sometimes i just feel like i have nothing valuable to add to the conversation

i will make an active effort to engage more tho

wow so much great memories lol

their good devs and engineers have left

thanks. i have a laptop i deliberately installed debian on… but that’s about it lol

i’ll take you up on the support suggestion too… i recently had to figure out why a unix server went down at work. luckily we had a set of scripts and commands archived from the manager that supported it before he left. all i did was just run them with a little bit of logic and context applied, but it forced me to poke around a bit and seeing what each command did. i was careful enough not to break anything but i found it quite interesting

i feel like i’m not actually against ads. i’m against the abuse of ads, that take away from the user experience…

i won’t mind seeing an ad if it doesnt get in the way of what i need to do on the pc. i don’t need an ad popping up when im trying to work on something, launch an application, download a file, etc. an ad in the corner, big enough for me to be aware of it, but obscure enough to not interrupt me will serve its purpose.

problem is, ad exposure is non-regulated and i can’t believe how the constant ad spamming doesn’t seem to phase a lot of people.

that being said… what’s a good website i can at least go to and learn some linux basics and progress to more advanced stuff? i’d at least want to check that out before i start bugging people…

i had the opportunity to take a class back in college but 18 yr old me couldn’t handle a 7am class and know-it-alls in the back always interrupting the teacher and trying to show off in class…

ahh yes the “portables”

this would be a really mean prank

the fellow students in school growing up that always blew off paying attention in school and disrupting class didn’t just disappear… sure i saw less of them when i wasn’t confined to those public grade school walls, but it’s been a harsh realization for me as I’m seeing them again as adults buying into and spreading the misinformation.

sure if we want to get granular, then yes “it” is a pronoun as well… it’s just not typically used when referring to a person

the irony behind my use of “it” just now though…

a younger candidate puppet would have drawn in the millenials/genz vote this time around but boomers gonna boom…

those are pronouns…

My wife has this issue all the time and she says it’s her tell for when she’s dreaming. She often uses it as a que to help her lucid dream

my tell is when i snap the rubber bands i usually wear on my wrists… in dreams, i feel nothing when the band snaps against the skin

i had one recently and i tried to make myself fly after realizing it was lucid, but couldn’t lol… i also thought about jumping off a cliff but my brain still said no that’s still a bad idea… my sub-concious is trained i guess

i’m glad this is being discussed. i felt like i was among very few in how i felt about that use of its vs it’s.

just say “it is” and use it’s as the possessive… like every other word in the language and stop failing people on exams

getting killed because of your skin tone when going to shop at the grocery store is barbaric. i’m not trying to throw a zinger here, but we have to strongly address both sides of the situation.
