Oh, that would be a shame. Not like I was already planning on buying a new computer this year and the idea of over-paying due to RAM shortages and other bs has made me mad at them. After already being mad at them for a lot of reasons that were more abstract in how they harmed me. Fuck 'em.
Hey, you know that Microsoft guy in a high position who pissed off devs on Twitter by saying their code would be replaced by AI and then a lot of the internet called him on his shit? Maybe I can work for him (because I'm certainly not talented enough to get hired directly under ass-face here).
Can we also make people who still pay for things at a store with a check go to the bad one? It was before the pan, but I couldn't believe what I was seeing when a lady pulled out her checkbook in front of me at the checkout line. Gtf outta here.
Gosh, Joe. Is Trump bad? Does he want to do bad things? Was voting for him bad? Does that make you bad?
Don't worry about it, buddy. You were still right to tell everyone you supported him and would vote for him and that you wanted him to hold you in his big strong pudding-arms while you fell asleep. You were right to support him on air with your millions of idiot listeners. It's ok, pal. Just let everyone know that you don't approve of this latest bad stuff and then it's not your fault. There you go, guy.
Donald Trump has said he might block ExxonMobil from investing in Venezuela after the oil company’s chief executive called the country “uninvestable” during a White House meeting last week....
It’s really cool how he made all this money in a state that had favorable conditions for his tech business and then wants to run away without paying his share for infrastructure. Asshole.

Oh, that's interesting. My father had our lineage researched and learned that an ancestor took the side of the British during the USA revolutionary war. He had to move to Canada after the colonies won their independence due to a campaign of harassment in which his barn was burned down.
The most interesting thing about it before now was that someone in my family history had supported the other team. Now it might have actual bearing on my life instead of just being a fun story.
I used to run this already sketchy software with its even sketchier crack on my old notebook because I really didn't give a fuck about how syphilitic it was, but now that I need it again and only have my current device, I'm kinda worried....
Virtualbox is free. I hate it, but it definitely works at no cost. VMware Workstation is also free.
Edit: without double-checking to make sure I'm saying it correctly, you probably want to avoid a bridged network and assign one of the other types of network adapters for separation of network devices, but you'll have to search the terminology to find details.

Working IT, it's impressive how many people don't understand basic computer functions. Even young people who grew up with technology. I impressed someone by fixing something by quitting and relaunching an app the other day. C'mon…

I honestly don't have compassion for the shitbags who voted for him again and did this to themselves. Fuck 'em. They fucked us. I don't care about them.
My mother once said she didn't appreciate how "the gays have to be so in your face about it." I guess some gay guys trapped her and made her watch them make out. Cause, you know, they're so in our faces about it.
I've never heard anyone actually say they believed in the war on xmas, but if anyone would, my mom proves they could be real. I cut her out of my life this year.
I have been prepping my home for the last five hours and I'm exhausted. Couldn't really do it sooner because I was working. My family always make me feel bad when there is cat hair or dust somewhere. Is it okay to put the bar a little lower? Would it be okay to just do less? What are your own standards about cleaning?
The correct place to set something down is wherever I am so long as it's not food. I can afford to pay for a cleaning service to cover mopping and such, so I only vacuum clumps of cat hair and leave the floors for someone else to manage. I tidy up before they come so they can access everything.
Second post, sorry. But here's something you can enjoy. I didn't bother trying to find all of them, but as you can tell from the numbering, there are more than these if you look for them.
Courtesy of Your Favorite Band Sucks. If you listen to any of the primary eps, start with a band you don't like and realize that the schtick is that they know a ton about music and can turn their sites on any band. It doesn't mean they actually hate everything.
We shall torrent if the archive link goes down. I'm already hosting Israeli crimes in Gaza and the Patriot Front leak. Expose nazi fucks. Do your part.
My mother voted for the fuck and he denied services to my state when we had wildfires. It's so cool how he doesn't care about all the rural voters on his side in my state. Fuck them because fuck me because I voted against him. It's awesome. Way to go, Mom.
