It’s amazing, they look awful in videos and pictures but then you see one in person and it’s just stunning to look at, not in a good way. They’re the stupidest looking things.

i use notepad to paste garbage that needs the formatting stripped out, they better not fuck that up.

nyan answered your question, I just want to add that older photoshop allegedly runs well in wine and for me personally i’ve had a lot of success with photopea although I’m a terrible example because I don’t do much with it.

not OP but yeah, hopefully it works in wine or has a webapp, failing that I look for alternative software that meets my needs. If all else fails I suppose I could use a windows VM until a better solution appears. It’s really going to depend on your specific case and how vendor locked you are.

Russian government officials trying to get away from windows, eh?

pop is getting smaller and towards the midwest, eventually it will just be minisoda.

Some of y’all are gunna learn today that on this same system there was StarWars Pod Racing, and you could use 2 controllers, one for each engine. You’re welcome.

Are you fucking sorry??!?

Man, it sure would suck if you could still get to safe mode from pressing f8. Can you imagine how terrible that’d be?

Vista because of license shenanigans. I tried to upgrade from XP and the license wouldn’t activate. Support told me my upgrade license wasn’t compatible with my XP license, like pro vs home or some crap. I was reinstalling Vista every 30 days for a while, I even got it down to like 15 minutes using a slipstreamed DVD with all the stuff I cared about being installed with the OS. It was manageable but annoying since I paid for the OS and the upgrade but couldn’t really use it. Then I took intro to unix and found out linux is free, I’d heard of linux but didn’t know it was free. I didn’t know what a distro was, I wasted a bunch of time trying to download linux from kernel.org and I couldn’t figure out how to get linux to work. Eventually I stumbled upon Ubuntu. Folks, you might not believe this but once upon a time Ubuntu used to be great for newbies. I can still hear the startup music (which was the style at the time) and the african drums. My printer just fucking worked. Firefox and libreoffice just worked, although I quickly learned to turn in deliverables as pdf exports. There were some learning pains but nothing that was any more difficult than random shit that pops up in windows, at least with linux I might get a useful error to point me in the right direction and there was always someone out there smarter than me that posted how to fix it. I haven’t looked back.

It’s ok, I balance it out by playing some games I’ve never paid for.

I had to deploy a couple MS SQL clusters years ago, I’m fuzzy on the details but for whatever reason we needed a domain admin to enable clustering and instead of following the permissions on the KB they gave up just made the service account a domain admin.

To this day I’ll never understand why a vendor would choose MS SQL or Oracle if they don’t have a very specific function that they need.

Finally got them potholes filled.

i really wish i could donate to just firefox and not mozilla, I just want firefox to be better and not to spend money on all these weird things.

I hope they’re Havana nice day.

Wouldn’t work anyway, needs a ray gun.
