I’m single and childless and I personally like being hybrid. Full work from home fucks my mental health up pretty bad. I’m definitely in the minority among my peers though. I also wouldn’t ever ask that anyone else be forced to come back to the office just because it isn’t for me.

Hook it up backwards so all the shit goes their way.

My understanding is fusion360 only does some things in the cloud. It still runs locally. Otherwise they could have a web app I could use on my Linux desktop and not worry about it. I was using them side by side on two separate workstations (the one with FreeCAD actually has higher specs) and I wasn’t really trying to compare performance but when it’s that glaring of a difference it can’t just come down to hardware and like I said it wasn’t just “slower” it was completely unusuable. I tried FreeCAD on the system I use Fusion360 on as well with similar results to everything else I’ve tried it on.

What are you running FreeCAD on? I have tried it on 4-5 different systems and it has ran like shit on all of them. Like I don’t expect it to be perfect but it took 30-90 seconds to even respond when I try to do something. That’s completely unusable. I finished an entire (fairly simple) design I was working on in Fusion360 before I could even get 2 rectangles sketched out in FreeCad. I’d love to get it working because it’s one of my bigger hangups getting rid of windows.

That narrative doesn’t really match with the video I saw at all. The protectors are across a street from him and pointing their weapons at him. They were far enough away that he may not have even been able to know they were talking to him. He is walking towards the crowd (and in range to shoot at them without getting closer if he was intending to do so) but is not pointing his rifle at them or holding it in a threatening manner. The video cut out as soon as he started running and I couldn’t tell from it when the shooting actually started. But it’s conceivable that he started running because he was shot. I’m not saying he didn’t have malicious intentions but it’s certainly not a cut and dry situation based off the evidence available.

I haven’t even seen him accidentally do something decent since he got back in office. It’s truly impressive.

I used to manage a team of people who were all remote except one and myself. It’s not hard. You set expectations and they either meet them or they don’t and you address those issues. I do think some of them struggled due to working from home creating a “barrier” to asking for help when you don’t know your coworkers as well, but I did everything I could think of to reduce that so they’d feel comfortable reaching out via teams (creating group chats, designating “helpers”, etc) or even coming into the office if they chose but there were very mixed results and in general things were worse than when we were primarily working from the office. I don’t think the problem is working from home, it was communication skills and some people just lacking the discipline to not goof off when they are at home (I’m one of these, I need an office environment to focus). That is a case by case thing though that needs to be addressed with the individual.

That advice doesn’t help much when I already have all the hardware. The whole point is not having to buy new shit.

Installing Linux is a walk in the park whereas windows is a Hilarious clown show from hell with no end.

As a server maybe. Switching everything on my desktop to Linux has been a constant fight against all kinds of problems and there’s several things I haven’t been able to get working at all. Microsoft’s constant enshittification is closing the gap and it’s currently a tossup between which one I’m going to land on but that’s not Linux improving so much as Windows getting worse.

Didn’t he just say not to take health advice from him a couple weeks ago?

If I’m going to have to talk to a computer just put it on a fucking website. There are 0 circumstances where I ever want to speak to a machine.

As a direct and proximate result of Defendants’ negligence, Plaintiff has suffered and will continue in the future to suffer the following damages: a. Pain, suffering, disability, disfigurement, and mental anguish […]

More likely a direct result of his mom being a fucking psycho.

Just imagine coming up with shit like this being the only job you can find and not jumping off a building instead.

They’re working to make home users care. I get a full screen popup every couple weeks reminding me that Win 10 is going out of support and my pc isn’t eligible to upgrade. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them get more aggressive with that shit in October. I also ran into issues with 7 where apps would just refuse to work on it so they have that route to fuck us too.

The clip I saw was him yelling about feeding kids in Gaza and pointing out that they were stripping Medicaid from poor kids here. It’s such a deceitful way to frame it.

Yea, they’re racing to the bottom or whatever’s beneath the bottom. Nothing innovative for the customer. Just controlling them to harvest their data.

I was talking about this with one of my friends a couple weeks ago and bitching about how I can’t find a phone to replace mine that wouldn’t be a massive downgrade in terms of what I can do with it. He was joking and said “Maybe you should just get an Iphone” and I was like… at this point maybe I should what difference would it make?

It’s pretty obvious that by “it” they meant the issue.

Hyper-V could literally suck my dick all day and I still wouldn’t use it if there’s a non-microsoft option that works. Not interested in being the test group for any more of their shit or get rug-pulled at the worst moment.

In practice I don’t know if I’ve ever had a relevant short come up when I was trying to find how to do a specific thing. Usually if I need help with something it’s more complicated than a short would allow for. I have seen “How to” shorts for all kinds of stuff come across my feed though that were pretty good. So if one came up when I was looking for how to do something I would watch it. That quick, concise format is exactly what I want usually when I’m trying to figure out how to do something. It skips all the “Hi I’m xxxx, welcome to my channel, blah blah blah” shit that the longer videos have. My main point was that not all this content is worthless brainrot stuff. Regardless of if it’s useful to you or me in particular someone else may find it valuable.
