It’s still Office Space.
I think I speak for most people when I say that I’m a good representative of the general population.
It’s still Office Space.
After a month of deliberation, I have settled on a beanbag chair. Thanks for the suggestions everyone, they were quite inspiring.
I have tracked down the missing word and returned it to its rightful place. Better late than never.
Man I’ve never really thought about how much having the wrong successor could fuck up the whole ecosystem.
It makes no sense to pronounce “jpeg” as “jay-peg” because the ‘P’ in Joint Photographic Experts Group clearly makes a sound like the ‘F’ does in ‘fell’. Saying it like “j-feg” is more correct.

It’s unrealistic to expect people to judge your message on the merits of your argument if you’re not taking the time to translate it into a language they speak.
Not really interested in making an argument to whether it’s fair to apply this caricature here, but that’s definitely the message here.
Always been partial to Victim In Fatal Car Accident Tragically Not Glenn Beck
“I heard screaming and I thought it was just someone doing an accurate impression of Glenn Beck talking normally, but then I saw the smoke.”
I remembee nuclear for the convincing testimonials shown on their website
I have extremely bad news about the future.
I have a bunch of habits I don’t like with how I respond to things said to me verbally.
For the longest time I thought I had bad hearing, always asking people to repeat things. At some point in the past few years I actuality started introspecting and realized that most of the time I have answers prepared by the time they’re done repeating themselves. My hearing is fine, but I have abnormally poor language processing.
Often I react to things by intentionally misinterpreting in an innocuous way, things like that. I never really liked it but pretended it wasn’t a thing. It’s a subconsciously developed strategy for buying time. Also why I handle talking one-on-one much better than groups, once two people start talking to each other I get too far behind the conversation and keep thinking of the things I would have liked to have chimed in with thirty seconds ago.
I remember mint being billed as essentially just that like a full ten years ago. I’m actually surprised to hear mint hasn’t been enshittified itself at this point, I just assumed that would have happened by now.
For anyone wondering, this extension is not FOSS.
I’m just speculating on reasons behind why people might feel it’s still not user-friendly. It was a pretty easy transition for me too, and that was years ago.
While there’s a little bit of getting acclimated to slightly different programs for the same tasks, I kind of imagine sophisticated needs primarily comes down to hardware. A company making some sort of computer hardware doohickey might design and test and provide support for something with Windows/Mac in mind, and maybe for other operating systems they’re not cooperative with documenting support, under the mindset that it would reveal trade secrets or decrease shareholder value in some other way. Linux support then comes from other means like reverse engineering. This could mean that it will take time before all the kinks are ironed out, or if the product was short-lived the linux community might not care enough to have someone volunteer to keep up with support. Common, time-tested hardware will have good support. Plugging in some old printer that was discontinued shortly after launch will be more of a crapshoot.
My first thought is that my work requires office365 mail and my discovery that davmail exists has been a godsend. I’m not going to install outlook on my linux pc, so being able to check those emails using any client (claws in my case) is a massive convenience upgrade from relying on firefox to login.
So it’s a writing app?
My first thought is The Fortress of Doctor Radiaki for DOS.
A game I never played but is still memorable is early 2000s there was a game in Babbages in my local mall called “Prison Tycoon” that had a cop beating a black man on the box.
The game was fun to some degree, just required an unfair time investment. The final fight was a memorably bad experience though. I was like eleven years old when I made it to the end and swear I spent almost a full hour clawing at Scar before I figured out that I wasn’t actually doing damage.
The scene where he read the poem was really memorable for me. I found out afterwards it’s a well-known poem irl, but I’ll probably always associate it with that movie. Rage, rage, against the dying of the light.
