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.

Man, nobody can put "a target" on you for something you say on a public forum that people get mad about.

You guys want freedom of speech? Freedom of speech is also getting shit on online for something you say. You have a right to speak, not a right to be liked.

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

If there's families and non-independent kids involved, a paternity test is just a way to set tje record straight, depending on how it's handled, there could be no judgement. Remember that you know the truth, but others don't, and you can always be sure of who is the mother, but not the father, and this is biological.

Not all positions require outstanding motivation. If you are a project manager, sure a motivated one will probably outperform someone there just for the money that doesn't give a shit. A technician on an assembly line? It doesn't matter, you are there to operate a machine and motivation will not make you (sustantially) more productive, incentives on the other hand will (benefits, salary, less stressful working condition...)

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.

This is just weird. Why make these changes? Customers don't want it, the company doesn't profit and they actually lost money and reputation by doing this and not backtracking. Who is benefiting from this? It looks like a perfect lose-lose situation

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

I wonder what Mastercard and VISA think of this one. I would be tempted to buy it just to mess up with them.

  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

You can have all the free time in the world, if you spend it all trying to have more, you don't get to enjoy it.
