I am not in the UK, but wound up biting the bullet and using QubesOS for my business machine. It’s kind of like a more straightforward to use everyday set of VMs. I have the windows qube there for running CAD/CAM and the sadly sometimes necessary Chrome install. I know this isn’t an ideal solution, but it is the best that I personally have been able to come up with without going through the headache of dual booting, especially when dealing with either govt stuff, need Chrome for crappy websites my clients sometimes force me to use, or actually needing proprietary software that I have licensed for my business (MasterCam in my case).

Is noone going to say anything about what’s going on in the terminal?

Here’s the thing…

I tend to agree for most things, but modern Blizzard titles are near unplayable without SSD because of they way that they load assets. You’d be technically in the game, but half of the models take 5 minutes to load in.

The are other games that load in things like this, but I can’t think of them off the top of my head.

It also has the superior theme song.

83 here as well. I tend to identify with Gen-X much more strongly. I think that’s because all of the music we were listening to was grunge stuff Gen-X was making.

Of all video game bosses in existence, fighting game bosses are the most bullshit of them all. You typically have to find some way to cheese them to death before they do it to you.

I’m fairly certain that at least most of us that post at least semi regularly in tenforward recognize each other. There’s a few doing a lot. My posts have dropped off lately because of creative burnout, though so I’m not around as much.

I’m a fan of Free Beer because it’s beer that can be free as in free Beer and free as in freedom.

I use trig heavily at work.

The Popeyes here sucks and that annoys me every time I drive by.

No. Megaton is a blight on the scenic view from that tower, not to mention that the longer it exists, the higher the threat is to the people around it.

Honestly, it’s stuff like this that makes me miss wysiwyg.

They were working around it by using personal API keys iirc.

This game desperately needs and deserves a full Neverwinter Nights style toolkit. I hope we get there one day.

Yeah, it is obvious hyperbole.

I mostly appreciate the pre-installed browser that takes many less steps to harden than a fresh install.

Very fair. I’m a far cry from an advanced user - I know just enough to be dangerous to myself, and didn’t see that. As I said in another comment, though, I do like that the default browser is somewhat hardened and uses a decent searx instance as the default search. It does seem to be marketed towards teenagers, though, unfortunately.
