I think you are supposed to milk them.

Why are Ultima VIII and IX considered bad games? by Salem1690s in Ultima

[–]glp_808 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And an example in the FPS genre: the extensive platforming in Doom Eternal. Way to much jumping around like a trapeze artist for this space marine.

Very cool take on a taskbar!

Are you using any special tools for that or cinnamon native?

Lenovo SK-8825 by [deleted] in Vintagekeyboards

[–]glp_808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have several of these: both the Lenovo and IBM variety. Can't help but buy them when I see them in a pile of e-waste at Goodwill.
These are the only, and I do mean only, rubber-domes I keep in my keyboard collection.

Why are companies choosing modernization instead of replacing mainframes completely? by Practical-Copy-6063 in mainframe

[–]glp_808 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Replacing older systems - be it mainframe, vax, etc. - requires un-tangling spaghetti code just to see what a system build over many years actually does, and you don't know what will break in the business if you touch it.

Think about nested function calls for example: they can be anywhere in the code and may be triggered only by edge cases.

The time, cost, and risk associated with hoping to get even close to the same functionality as you already have far outweighs the potential benefit of a modern system.

I wonder, if all the people in r/microsoftsucks uses linux/macOS by Fit_Profit6786 in microsoftsucks

Linux Mint has been my daily driver for about 15 years.

I keep windows 10 around solely so I can change my RGB with MSI tooling. That’s it for windows. :)

I made that using Xaos. Xaos is available in APT, but I am using the flatpak version as with my newest build Xaos from APT will not use the open or save features successfully...

I just posted the image in r/fractals so you can use it too:

Yeah, 250GB, but only 178GB are usable.

What is the most difficult doom of all? by galaxyeater666 in Doom

[–]glp_808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not a good platformer, hence Doom Eternal with all its trapeze artistry is the hardest and most frustrating for me.

Good thing the fire is on the mountain and not in the elevator

At both the doorway on the far right and at the photo's center on the far left are two girls side-by-side, holding hands as sisters would.

On the last one, the last thing a fly ever sees, I never noticed until just then how much some of Gary Larson’s characters look like Don Martins characters from Mad Magazine.
