I run Linux at a workplace that is mostly Windows and some Mac.

Nobody notices or cares.

Everything I need runs in a browser now.

But why does everyone bring up AutoCAD? Lemmy seems to be full of AutoCAD professionals.

I sling code and documents. Linux is better for code and uses Office 365 as well as any other OS.

This sounds a lot like gripes that older generations have always had about younger generations.

But this younger generation is the youngest one yet!

It is lucky noone is exploiting that simplicity.

Yes. If anyone unethical figured that out, who kmows what could happen!?

When I have had something previously working to not working with no known changes, it has usually been failing hardware, for me.

Keep an eye on your heat - both in the PC itself, and in the charging cord (if a laptop).

Thank you for your wisdom, Comrade Shark Fucker.

Yeah. I just mention it because I’ve generally just used VNC myself; and wondered what the fuss with fancier tools was about.

But then I realized home Internet has getting worse for some folks, and so folks might be using a service to get VPN-ed together, or whatever.

I’m also a big VNC fan, but I imagine RustDesk is solving for CGNAT better? I’m not aware of anything in VNC that solves CGNAT being a PITA.

I tolerate continued existence out of a morbid sense of curiosity.

That’s beautiful, in it’s own way.

I felt that way at one point. It led me, eventually, to moments that I later decided mattered very much, to me.

If I hadn’t had that morbid curiosity, I’m not sure I would have made it to those moments I now cherish.

Here’s to morbid curiosity!

I keep expecting Jeff Bezos to get angry at the portrayal of Lex Luthor to top it off.

Or do I just have a really weak electric stove?

I think you might just have a really weak one, or poor compatibility pots? I’ve had both, and if anything my gas burners feel a little slower and cooler than my induction stove did.

Jeff Bezos never smashed the window on my car to steal my speakers,

True.

he doesnt come out vandalising public transport or parks and he isnt the reason my wife doesnt feel safe walking around at night.

If we could even comprehend the scale of his unpaid taxes, or their impact on our parks, we might discuss this at length…

The surprisingly deep copy of Balatro in “Dave the Diver” is pretty good.
