The fact that google has two completely separate products called Android Auto and Android Automotive is so confusing and dumb

Honestly that's one of the least annoying ways windows interacts with modern hardware, you should experience when it changes your efi settings and breaks pxe booting

I wish, the new dell optiplexes are terrible, not only do they not have an actual psu switch, it takes like 20 seconds of holding the power button before they turn off and then you have to wait like 10 seconds before you can turn it on again, during which time it does a really good job of pretending to be on and flashing disk activity lights and things but it's actually just self testing and you have to wait for it to turn back off before you can actually turn it on again. Dell used to make such good quality computers but they are genuinely awful now

Last time I was using a windows computer I was turning it off to re image it and I didn't want to wait for it to shut down so I just held the power button since it didn't matter if it got messed up and windows popped up this message on screen that was like "Please stop holding the power button we just need a few minutes". Like what are you doing you aren't supposed to tell the user what to do, that isn't the job of a computer

Also, so that a random program you run as an wheel user can't just get root access without asking.

Huh, in my area recently they've been using just normal Mercedes vans with the Mercedes logo replaced by the USPS logo so I had assumed that was just the new standard USPS vehicle now but I guess not, interesting.

Wait why is he trying to "leave the outdated big banks behind"? I thought conservatives liked big business. If they don't then can we leave the outdated big oil companies behind? Or are they special? Or is it banks specifically they don't like?

I just make ssh an alias that runs TERM=xterm /usr/bin/ssh

I use Thunderbird if I'm using Plasma and Geary if I'm using Gnome

I wonder if sony would allow a company to include a JVM in a ps5 game. It seems like they wouldn't like it because it would probably be easier to exploit to jailbreak the console

It seems like it would be useful for things like camera permissions and stuff, but it seems a little unnecessarily complicated for file access compared to just using a filechooser portal like flatpak does, then the user can just select specifically what they want when they want to without having to think about permissions.

 

If you just search for "hand me out to drive", literally all the results are websites that copied this insane transcription.

(For anyone not familiar, the actual phrase and what the song says is "hang me out to dry")
