Or just accept it as another form of humor and laugh at it if you find it funny.
Corporate sent me a laptop that kept not talking a charge, so I get on with an IT guy and we go through a bunch of steps then he has me open WSL and I’m like “oh this is just the terminal”. He instantly went from “this is a chore” to upbeat. After that he was super helpful and even called in a RMA for the dock that we figured out was the issue (we usually have to call in our own RMAs), then once I got it he called back and walked me through flashing it to the latest firmware, rather than just emailing the instructions.
Yeah, I have no idea what that picture is trying to say.

The reason I play the lottery is, well financial freedom of course, but to have the ability to be a complete shut in and work on projects that actually matter to me and on my own schedule. No more working the hours some other person tells me to just to further enrich those that make in a month what I make in a year and would throw me to the wolfs without a second thought if it benefited them.

And no I’m not, I’m just a guy who spent over a decade self-employed then went into the corporate world and tried to bring my innovate quickly mindset with me and very quickly found out that even a simple change requires that only affects my department required 5 different people from outside our department to sign off on the change and each one of them assigned 1 or more people to research and report on the change. Losg story short, after a while I found out what was going on and why nothing ever got adopted and I being a snarky asshole learned there corporate buzzwords and started stringing them into the proposals.
Oh I agree but it would be nice if he’d have listened to me years ago and started using a password manager at least. I know he’ll never go full self hosting, but come on at least use Bitwarden!

I should get this for my dad, he recently got a new computer at best buy and the geek squad told him his files were all in the cloud and sent him home. Guess who got a call the next day because “all my passwords are in a word document in some fucking cloud”. Yeah that was a fun day spent setting up his computer while listening to his rant about the geek squad and “the fucking cloud”… thanks geek squad…
Nix is the new Arch, instead of “I use Arch by the way” it’s “I use Nix by the way”.
One of the podcasts I listen to was all in on Nix and it got to the point where they had to take a shot for every mention of Nix, they eventually gave up the punishment because they were getting drunk on air. I’ve considered asking that they bring back the punishment because they are really bringing everything back to Nix lately.

Mom’s green 94 Ford Taurus. But I learned to drive in Dad’s 89 rust brown Honda Civic hatchback with a manual transmission.
Balding thank you very much. Also I don’t have a mortgage.
oppy1984@lemdro.idto memes@lemmy.world•Has to be 16 characters, #s, Cap and lower case.English8·9 days agoAh but you see there’s the problem, you don’t have a committee to launch a working group that puts together investigative teams to research and write reports on the benefit of the solution, the ROI of the solution, the training costs of the solution, stakeholder buy in of the solution, and potential alternatives to the solution. You need at least a 10 month process before one jackass says they don’t want the solution so the committee can recommend to management that the solution be abandoned.
I am a world renowned bad speller, so I thank you for your patience with me.
