Engineering CADs and old peripherals with proprietary drivers for me. This cannot be always solved with a VM because either they are graphically intensive or hardware passthrough just doesn’t work for them.

There’s one specific case of Texas Instruments’ software suite for microcontrollers: they have all the tools, the IDE and SDKs available for windows/mac/linux, EXCEPT one stupid old sdk I needed that was ONLY available on Windows for some reason, so I had to use it just for that stupid piece of drivers.

For games I either do games that work on proton, or for extreme cased I have a VM with second GPU in passthrough, and that works quite qell, but cannot do on a work laptop.

Relaxed? What is the meaning of this word? My emotion is a booleam variable that is either depressed or agitated, nothing in between

Don’t answer the question, ask them for specific examples on why they think you are being unmotovated or unfriendly, don’t be aggressive, just pretend you simply don’t understand. They’ll tell you some bullshit and you can tell it’s a misunderstanding. Keep a polite and friendly tone.

Someone got the link to the guy’s video installing windows 11 on a 2007 Sun Workstation by disabling the arbitrary checks?

Drug addiction is a real nasty bitch. Congrats!

1. in richer countries sanitary conditions of food and water means there’s less risk of parasitic infection

2. if there’s no symptom, you probablu don’t have a parasitic infection. Remember that billions of bacteria and other microorganisms live in your body in a symbiotic relationship, that’s totally normal and without the you would die

3. For the love of God, please don’t take any medicine without your doctor telling you to do so. Esoecially any “purification”, " cleansing" or “detox” substance some randos on the internet tell you it’s good for you. Those are people with no medicanl knowledge at best or scammers at worst

Your concerns are valid and there’s a risk such a move would be either economically unsuccessful or emotionally draining. Is there a way you can start experimenting with some monetization without leaving your job? This way you can test how feasible it is, and yoy have more informarion on how it could work for you.

People would be mad, SteamOS and M$ itself are already giving people enough to ditch windows, doing such a thing would make it even worse. It’s just better to try and convince publishers to only focus on Windows

About Pike’s hair, am I wrong or is vulcanian Pike’s hair even more erected than human Pike?

You are right, with 20+ episodes it’s easier to have a common theme while still being episodic enough to have episodes that don’t advance the plot but are either funny or explore some unrelated theme. 10 episodes season work for a serialized series (like discovery), but an episodic 10 episodes series is a hybrid of the two and more difficult to pull throught.

However, I still think they did a good job, the season was fun and enjoyable, and I don’t really care there’s no “big picture plot”. After all, this is not telling the voyage of a ship lost in the galaxy or a multi-year war with a foreign dominion, it’s a character build-up story that will eventually become the original series, it’s a prequel and doesn’t try to be anything else. Surely I enjoyed it more than galaxy-destroying-threat-of-the-year discovery.

Also, even if some more “experimental” episodes may be a little failed, I can surely appreciate the attempt and, even if more boring or over the top, at least they are memorable, si they have value.

The entire episode, while enjoyable, was prettt rushed, if it was split in a two-parts season finale they would probably fit in more explaination scenes, like at least an aknowledgement from Batel and some more explaining/exploration of what she was.

The villain is “evil itself”, I don’t really see a way to not make it one-dimensional, he is literally one thing only.

From what I get it, the fanatasy/hallucination wss made by Batel for herself and Pike, because she knew they would never see again andshe (somehow, I guess that’s part of the Beholder superpower?) constructed a fake world so they could, in some way, live their life together. That’s why Pike didn’t suffer the accident, and that’s why Bayel thanks him on her deathbed and tells him to open the door. She got her life together with him, it was time to get back to reality and become the Guardian.

That’s also why the falling star happears in the planet, she told him she would follow everywhere in his heart, and a falling star happears (“here I am” she says in the fantasy life).

It’s never really a good idea to share your home location online. At least nothing good can come out of it

Considering how expensive things are in the USA, I hope you got to a country with a lower cost of living. Well, also, no amount of money is worth your personal safety.

Not only, be involved and actually teach them what sex is and how to do it properly

Probably some guy working on legacy hardware found a bug, fixed it for work and while was there, pushed it.

Or you know, some other guy with a lot of free time dusted off some old cards and wanted to play with them.

Not only the content doesn’t exist yet, it’s just not practical. Even now 4k broadcasting is rare and 4k streaming is now a premium (and not always with a good bitstream, which matters a lot more) when once was offered as a cost-free future, imagine 8k that would roughly quadruple the amount of data required to transmit it (and transmit speee is not linear, 4x the speed would probably be at least 8x the cost).

And I seriously think noone except the nerdiest of nerds would notice a difference between 4k and 8k.

Not sure about USA, but in other countries istigation to suicide is absolutely illegal and punished.

Even worse, Europe is paying for the priviledge
