It runs like shit today. Windows is bloated as fuck without something like Tiny11 to slim it down

DEI isn't just a dog whistle for racism, it's also sexism.

There's also "air fry", which is just an aggressive convection oven

After trying Windows 11 for a while, I just gave up and installed Kubuntu on my computer. I still use a Windows VM for some things, but I make sure to firewall the shit out of it lol

Social media is fucked, dude. It's the norm to always feel like you're missing out.

Does my 1 hour each way commute count as time to myself? Because my company certainly seems to think so

The RCA and 3.5mm audio jacks are all the same as well, but color coded.

Eh, it's also a convenience problem. If I want to watch a specific movie, good luck figuring out what streaming service it's on. It's so nice to be able to just watch what I want without that hassle.

This is the result of decades of having management full of people with finance degrees rather than technical degrees. They cut costs because they don't understand worth. Same thing happened with Southwest Airlines.

From my experience, DEI is not about making racist people not racist, or sexist people not sexist. It's about making people from varying backgrounds feel welcome, and making sure people don't feel isolated if they're different.
