  • Trains? We've been using those for over a century now.

  • E1M1 but rendered on a SoundBlaster AWE32 in full MIDI glory.

  • So... did they find any new interesting digits there or just the usual 0 to 9?

  • One more vote for the original Doom, running in a modern engine with some of the colossal WADs released over the years.

    It loads instantly, gets you fighting in no time. You know the rules, yet you still get surprised by one of these guys with a machine gun.

    Compare that to a modern game, where you have to wait for it to update, compile shaders, the studio logo video, the proprietary launcher and the main menu before you are allowed to do anything.

  • The amounts of copium that Windows users are willing to swallow to avoid changing are reaching stratospheric levels. Inertia is one hell of a drug.

  • "To err is human, but it takes a computer to really fuck things up"

  • First time using Microsoft products, is it?

  • Mr. T.

  • Save Ferris' cover of Come On Eileen, by Dexy's Midnight Runners.

  • Bye then. Best of luck out there, friend.

  • A one time pad, I think it called.

  • That's how it was done in the old days to save a few cycles in Z80 assembly. XOR A instead of LD A, 0.

  • As a Wolfenstein 3D player that checks every square centimeter of every wall for secret passages, I feel this pain.

  • Farscape also had a whole made up vocabulary like "frell" and "dren".

  • apt remove snapd

  • Teams is kind of awesome of what you want to do is exchange emojis and funny gifs with your co-workers. Not so much if you want to work.

    I miss the days when applications were coded like applications, not like web sites. The ammount of clutter that goes behind the scenes to get a simple OK button on screen these days must be mind numbing.

  • Copy+paste is still a pain in the ass in Microsoft Teams. Why don't you work on that instead?

  • Slaughterhouse 5 by Kurt Vonnegut Jr.

  • That's not a lie, that's standard operating procedure.
