Kind of coming around to the idea that the government shutdown won't ever end, and Congress has effectively been dissolved permanently

Re: Microsoft (1975-2025) 🕯️

There are people who work on 1 monitor (excluding if it's an ultrawide which is effectively two)? I have three at both my work and home office and find that I'm incredibly inefficient whenever I have to work off just my laptop screen

Re: Microsoft (1975-2025) 🕯️

Never seen that Linux adds much value for a regular user and nothing anyone has said here has done anything to change that opinion. People seem more interested in the "moral superiority" that not being attached to a Microsoft product provides. The value is that it's free but you're no lon...

Re: US Politics Megathread

It was always significantly more likely that he was a crazy leftist, although not super far fetched that he could have been a massive antisemite, which often supersedes left or right.

Old outlook (if you use new outlook you’re basically just using the web version), was a completely different software than the web version.

In the era of social media were we hear about people who dont deserve to get killed get killed basically every day, it becomes hard to care in general. The fact that he wasn't so good of a person doesn't make it easier obviously.

Re: US Politics Megathread

I didn't and my post wasn't in response to that. I just don't care about people crying about the epstein list being released because pragmatically it's irrelevant. We already know trumps in it. I also don't care about trump meeting putin, a literal red carpet being rolled out, or them shaking hands....

No, hundreds of thousands of poor kids getting to eat is more important than Trumps name being in some book. Mass deportation are also part of his idiotic economic policy btw.

Re: US Politics Megathread

This may come across as callus, but I don't particularly care about Epstein or Russia. I care that Trump is a room temp IQ who doesn't understand the most basic tenants of economics while trying to micro manage the economy.
