Puppy has saved my ass multiple times. Love that tiny dog.

Speaking of Tails, a security minded user can also try out Qubes as well. It uses virtualization to separate different contexts like Work, Personal, Social, etc. You can have your Work profile connect to your workplace VPN while your Personal profile is on a torified connection in parallel. It does have its drawbacks, however. You need more system resources, and anything that requires direct access to GPU like videogames is not officially supported.

Corpo drones will never allow such things. Disney in particular will fight back like a rabid mouse.

So we’ll have to say GNU/Linux/SystemD soon?

I put on my robe and wizard sombrero.

No problems running on the AMD graphics?

Back in the day I used Mod Organizer + F4SE so I could avoid the official launcher and all the bs that came with it.

This is why I dread working with anything ‘too consumer friendly’.

Wasn’t it a few years ago that scientists working on human genes renamed something because excel was chaging it every time?

I used Opera when it used Presto instead of becoming a yet another chromium. I miss that one.

Having an untraditional gTLD like .xyz makes many confused as well, especially those not in IT.

Sometimes boring is better, sticking to the fundamentals. I didn’t like when signal tried to mix crypto into it.

Isn’t Japan a well known case of chronic recession lasting for decades since the 90s? There are more general issues that other East Asian countries share like population decline.

And paywalls. Why.

Are those USB naming schemes, or edgy usernames from 2000s like xXx_31Gen3x1HardCore_xXx?

My workplace insists on using dot net classic to recreate a twenty years old VB app that should be able to drink, vote, and drive.

Please send help. SQL queries are a spaghetti mess and all the original devs are probably gone or dead.

I am so sorry, man. No one deserves this.

And this is why alcoholism is rampant. Please free me from this insanity.

I scream silently everytime.
