The only redeeming quality about trump is he seems to be against the status quo of Republican/Democrat governance. Obviously he’s all sorts of fucking wrong in every way, but the way things have trended with Republicans and Democrats has not made the lives of average Americans better.

Someone said (and I’m terrible at remembering things like who) that Republicans make rules to benefit the rich, and Democrats make rules to benefit the poor and the rich. That is the status quo that we are left with. And right now, it’s unfortunately the status quo that I’m rooting for, because the alternative is worse.

Wait, you can secure SSDs and not just kinda push em in there?!

That’s only 30% of toes, unless we’re going by overall volume.

Right? It’s the basic test. I have come to terms that I’m really basically smart, but when things get more detailed I’m pretty regular.

I was so smart I became an 11 though, instead of perhaps a job with life skills, for a life other than LEO. No regrets though, made some lifelong friends, got stupid tattoos, visited some cool places, and I get $170 a month for tinnitus.

I will commiserate with you. I think the shape of that can is ultimately your issue. In fact, I know it is, I’ve seen that can and anytime I’ve seen it, the bag looks like yours. So you’re not alone.

As an aside, if you intend on joining the military, especially if you enlist, nobody cares about your ASVAB score, and if you wield it like a weapon, others will use it against you. I knew ASVAB waivers who had quick wit. I served with dudes who paraded around their conventional intelligence and had a tough time making friends, and only when they dropped the whole smart guy act did they fit in better.

Your post tickled my funny bone tonight. I wish you well and I hope you can “adapt and overcome” as it relates to this issue.

Think you nailed it. But then we can’t make jokes about this post anymore.

I love that you came here and I think everything you said is fair.

I love OP’s response though, this whole thread is hilarious.

I took my ASVAB in 2009, so unless it’s in my SRB somewhere, you’ll have to take my word for it.

I did upload a picture of my garbage though, that should be proof enough.

I knew some very intelligent individuals in the military. We were all enlisted and we all knew how to put a shit can liner in a shit can. And not one of us went around waving our ASVAB dick around.

Love a good old fashioned OP roast though.

So smart you joined the military.

I can say that because I was a 99 ASVAB and a dumb grunt.

Tinfoil never goes bad, it can’t hurt to stock up!!!

Right? Do you remember going to websites and your computer would yell out that you were watching porn? Ads would burst forth like you just won fucking Solitaire. Shit took forever to download, and if you lost connection in the middle, start over!

I guess if you started using the Internet after like 2008, when things really started to take off, you saw a golden hour. But it was a dangerous place in the early 2000s, although I learned a lot about how to unfuck computers in my quest for boobs as a teenager.

It was tongue in cheek. My sense of humor doesn’t come across text well. Or in real life.

Appreciate the clarification. It sure feels like something after the period, not before.

Are you saying 11 is just a reskinning? Or are you saying my laptop is 10?

Yes, it’s SysAdminWorld for sure, and I’m reminded of it on any post that’s even remotely tangentially related to Windows.

Nail on the head.

Also, I’ve been msconfig’g and removing programs from Windows for the past 20+ years. It’s always been something you just do in Windows.

It isn’t get good. I’m sure you’re more than capable of figuring it out. It just feels like, a long with so many other similar posts, shit in windows because windows bad. And I’m as nostalgic for XP and 98 as many people on here are, in the same way I’m nostalgic for many other things that happened during my formative years, but to go to say windows is unusable is just completely counter to my person experience, which is that windows has removed some power user features over the past 20 years, but remains largely the same. I also don’t use it the way I used to.

Setting up a Linux box for me would just be a hobbyist exercise, and so I may, I will, just haven’t gotten around to it yet.

I guess I’ve confused things a bit.
