Everything should be licensed like that

Eh, it’s no lemmygrad

I didn’t mind it actually. Like I don’t mind the GNOME overview or whatever the thing that comes up when you press Meta is called

I don’t need that many. Give me one good stick gun and that’s all I need.

A wheel of Parmigiano is about 40kg. That’s 2/3rds of her weight… they look weird 'cause they’re 'shopped.

Cool nickname

Yeah I never really considered them before Ryzen, but even afterwards, it’s been very difficult to find one with the specs I want.

I’ve been on AMD and ATi since the Athlon 64 days on the desktop.

Laptops are always Intel, simply because that’s what I can find, even if every time I scour the market extensively.

The EU has an instance

A jammer is less sophisticated than a crowbar. It’s not like the burglar designs it themselves. Nor are they hacking your network to gain access, they just shut everything down.

There will be no consequences for those who made this choice because going with the biggest suppliers is never wrong: they in theory have the highest reliability, and even if they don’t, then it’s not just your problem but everyone else’s too, can’t blame those responsible when the outage is akin to an “act of God”

Who could have foreseen this

Lowercase L and uppercase i are so fucking problematic

lol he said it’s working

At first I thought it was the guy’s mother who’d been seeking the pumpkin

Winmodems

20 years ago was still xorg.conf times

The windows 11 installer couldn’t find any hhd partitions or hard drive, while FreeDOS could. After googling for a while I had to download an Intel Rapid Something driver from the manufacturer’s website and load it up when installing windows 11.

SATA drivers flashbacks

Microsoft put themselves in this position when they went against the open source movement.
It moves slowly but inexorably, and sooner or later Linux or another open source OS will take their spot on the desktop.

It depends on where you want to live, Italy is VERY diverse for a country its size (it used to be multiple countries not that long ago, after all). I’m from the north.
The average salary is about 24-34k€ depending on latitude, but roughly one third of that goes into paycheck taxes before you even see it. A skilled professional can make up to double that, but that’s not easy, and only in the north, where life is more expensive. All of this is excluding places like Milan, where everything is WAY more expensive.

Internet connections are a shot in the dark in rural areas sometimes you can get 250mbit, sometimes 0, I know of people who work from home with 30Mbit connections and it’s painful.
Rent depends strongly on the location and the city, a 80m² apartment in a secondary city is probably 800-1200€/month right now, that is why most people live with their parents until they get a stable relationship, as you need two incomes to afford a place to live usually. I spend about 100-200€/week for groceries for two adults, but we both make good money and I tend to buy expensive stuff.

Air conditioning is painful. My home isn’t super modern, so insulation is what it is, I probably spend 800€/year in the summer for A/C, and the machine itself is 2 years old, so it’s an efficient one. The one I replaced was even more expensive to run.
