Key word: consumer. You won’t find a single router on store shelves that the layman is not getting all of their data collected through.

This was the plot of a really good episode of The Orville. They had a whole society based on astrological signs.

This is going to be a callback, but Ballistic Weapons for UT2004. It completely overhauled the gunplay in ways I’ve never seen replicated. I loved all the extra modes the weapons had and many took a while to learn how to use.

The devs went on to make Viscera Cleanup Detail, so good for them, but I did always wish they made a FPS.

ALLEGEDLY

This game was a total distant memory because the title was so crazy generic, it took me forever to find it. It’s called The Robot Club and I’d link you to a wiki page, but there isn’t one. There is an IA page though: https://archive.org/details/the-robot-club

Company schedule entirely written in Google Sheets. When I originally took the position over, the owner wouldn’t settle for an alternative solution.

The previous IT person worked there previously for about 10 years and had been compulsively adding features with AppScript the entire time. It was auto sending emails, handling inventory, maintaining project files, you name it. I briefly looked at how it worked and there were easily a dozen script files, a few of which were thousands of lines.

I was able to replicate most of the important parts of the system that he wanted to replicate in about two weeks in between other work with one script file and something like 50 lines.

I eventually left for reasons unrelated to the place and only ever had to fix issues once every 6 months or so, which I consider pretty decent for an unattended Google Sheet shared by 5 users.

I’ve since returned and rebuilt the schedule a second time with a proper database and the whole thing run 10x smoother and more reliably.

Lately for me it’s been “ks”

In the article it also points out that this means you don’t have to waste paper, which is a plus, assuming they last.

I think this speaks for itself

I bounced around to all sorts of systems and DEs and came to this same conclusion. Debian + KDE is where it all ended up after try easily over 20 different systems throughout the years.

It’s the most “we trust you, but also respect your time” combo I’ve found.

That movie would have been a lot less interesting, I feel.

Unfortunately not never

Those computers has less memory than a dollar store calculator. The boots in memory were physical magnets woven by hand into a mesh. It’s insane that it left our planet and came back with people alive.

Rosebud for money in the Sims

Yeah, you can build a 1440p native/4k upscale build for like $1000 if not less. I don’t understand what the demand for these cards is. What games benefit?

Same here. One is the best made TV boxes period.
