I agree. I wear glasses anyway and I would love a subscription that filtered out digital ads, billboards, or any other kind of ad

Happy Bean Day

When you move things, lift correctly (safety videos are online). I’m only 35, but because of all the moving I did in my 20s, without thought of safety, I have frequent lower back pain and it doesn’t take much to hurt it.

Gotcha.

I know Mental Outlaw had a video about powershell scripts to help reboot Windows 10

That might help speed it up and stop Windows from doing unnecessary background stuff and using resources

Seeing lots of excellent suggestions for general (7-zip, Notepad++, etc).

Foobar2000 is a good music player

I don’t know if it’s good, but I guess there is now a Lemmy Desktop app https://webcatalog.io/en/apps/lemmy/

I saw you said you use Plex. I assume you use Steam for gaming?

Is there any specific feature/use you want QoL improvements for?

Bomb Club on iOS (was on Android at one point)

So many good and bad names on the table. “Utah Venom” sounds awesome. “Utah Ice” on the other hand…

Afraid they packed over a year ago. This is the winner (I like it too, but I really want the dinosaur skiing to be somewhere)

Loving this chain. Also over 30. I get frustrated that what older generations used to spout about Millenials like me (lazy, don’t want to work, etc) gets spouted by my generation to gen z.

I’ve seen some Gen Z kids do some bad things, but I’ve also seen them do amazing things my generation would not have done.

As far as music, I love all the variety there is and all the mediums to listen to it now.

I had forgotten about this game. It was a fun time. I think there was a Jungle Strike also

The last memory I have of Desert Strike going to a local video game and card game place (Heebeegeebees in Ogden, Utah before they expanded) with some of my siblings and buying this for some portable system (GBA?) and starting to play.

I then heard the owner (who was still in the shop back then) say “We can do this the easy way or the hard way”. It had transpired that one of my siblings had tried to steal something. Cops got called, fun times.

For those curious, the rumor was that the easy way was police and the hard way was him chasing you with a bat

Thanks, I appreciate the advice and kind attitude. I’ll check it out

Good to know. I know wine can get steam going (assuming you don’t just use the Linux version). How do you get steam to download and install the game if it says it’s the wrong operating system? Sorry if that’s a dumb question

I feel like not wanting to do the work for certain Steam games is what keeps me on windows for my personal use (work makes the decision on my work machine).

I know it’s possible, I just don’t want to do the work

Oh agreed it’s still could be a crime, but the headline makes it sound like all he did was block a handshake, when really he did a lot more

I wish the Headline was more accurate.

Reading the story, he wasn’t arrested for blocking a handshake, he started forcibly dragging the superintendent to the back of the stage

It would be nice to not need to worry about having a safe power source. Working remote, power blackout kills my ability to do my job

Yep. And really just the media and general. Not to mention every company seems to market ai for something.

It’s cool tech, but it’s covered everywhere, that is why I wanted to hear what other tech people are excited for

Just a happy brain in a happy jar
