  • 150 games is probably about 1/2 my collection, never mind what I've played elsewhere.

  • Chipotle is on it's way out. When they first opened, at least by my work, the food was fresh and decent and could be had for a little more than fast food but not by a lot so it was easy to go there. I wouldn't say it's Mexican or TexMex but it wasn't bad. Changed jobs and hadn't been there in a while but I was on a road trip and thought what they heck, there aren't too many options and this seemed like it would be good. The food was not fresh the meat was over cooked, you didn't get a lot of food and it was kind of over priced... I haven't been back since.

    If I want cheap food, Chipotle is out. If I want good food Chipotle is out. Maybe if I hate myself and want to spend a lot of money for shitty food?

  • The first individual officially diagnosed with autism was Donald Triplett in 1943. Dr. Kanner (The Dr. who diagnosed him) had noted Triplett's symptoms, such as social withdrawal and an insistence on sameness, as early as 1938. While not diagnosed as autism, there are historical accounts of individuals with similar characteristics, such as the "Wild Boy of Aveyron" in the late 1700s and Hugh Blair of Borgue in the 18th century.

    Tylenol was introduced in 1955.

  • I've been running TrueNAS since it was called FreeNAS and I've been happy with it.

  • I dump out the wet tea leaves and give the strainer a rinse right away.

  • I haven't been to a fast food restaurant in ages, most restaurants I do frequent are because the food is good and I want to support them. I think I'd be fine as long as there were still grocery stores.

  • I watched the getting to Blinky from Contextual Electronics and it was super helpful. It covered everything from beginning to end, including uploading files to get a PCB manufactured.

  • This, we started getting ads and prime was almost never 2 days, usually more. This a long with all the Bezos BS made me stop not only prime but using Amazon all together. I've been using Amazon since the late 90s, back when they were just books.

  • I think using Amazon to compare prices locally is fine, I just wouldn't buy from Amazon.

  • So I love Debian but it prides itself on stability so packages tend to be older. I think this is good for a server but probably not great for a desktop. Ubuntu came along and was like we'll be like Debian but newer packages. Everything was cool for a while but then they started doing shitty things. The first that I can think of was ads in the terminal. This was not great for an open source app. Then when you did apt install firefox it installed Firefox as a snap. WTF?!?!? (apt should install .deb files, not snaps). Because of this, lately I've decided to avoid Ubuntu.

    I used Gentoo for a while and it was great but configuring and compiling everything took forever. I'm getting too old for that. Arch seems like a good alternative for people who want to mess with their system. So it's become a way for people to claim they know what they are doing without having to recompile everything. (Note: I haven't used Arch, this is just my perception)

    Recently I got a new laptop and I had decided to put Linux on it and had to decide what distro. Arch was in consideration but I ended up going with OpenSUSE Tumbleweed because it's got the latest but I don't really have to configure anything. If I had more time, I might go with something like Arch but I don't really want to do that much fiddling right now.

  • So take the knife, put your thumb and index finger on either side with the web of your hand on the blunt side of the knife with the sharp side away from you. Squeeze the back of the pit and it should pop right off.

  • Some places do but swipe and sign is still pipular here. Chip and tap are catching on but most places have all 3

  • Yeah, I actually just started looking at running windows in a containet on Linux and then using RDP, hopefully I'll get a chance to play with it this week.... would let me run windows things without rebooting!

  • Yeah, I've tried it and it kindof worked last I tried. I had an issue where the browser in the upper left just wouldn't expand and it keeps giving me warnings about direct x expiring. I was hoping to use it but I don't know if Fusion on Wine is really ready for prime time. :(

  • Oh, I've been a Linux user for a long time, mostly on the server, not as a Desktop. Unfortunately Fusion 360 kindof runs under wine but not really so it's still the one thing I have to reboot for.

  • The big thing for me is a hotkey which launches a window I can put in an application (partial is fine) or command and it starts or runs the command.... so I do <Ctrl>+<Space>dark and it launches darktable. You can also have plugins that do things. So for example, after I upload my .torrent files, I delete them locally. So I have a rm command which just runs rm ~/Downloads/*.torrent.

    Yes, I could click on the menu, type in the command I'm looking for but this is a little quicker. Plugins also allow you to do complicated tasks quickly.

    I dunno, I've gotten used to it.

  • Seriously, Ubuntu used to be my goto distro but Canonical's shenanigans have caused me to look elsewhere. So far I'm liking OpenSUSE tumbleweed.
