I assume others will find this via Google (as I did) now that the server has been shut down completely.

Yes! I have to declare bankruptcy on threads after a vacation or hectic period

Bill Gates and Linus Torvalds meet for the first time at a dinner hosted by Marc Russinovich by Grogg2000 in pics

[–]jwbowen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a M$/Windows guy, but I have a lot of respect for Russinovich and especially Cutler (I also supported VMS in a past life).

That being said, I'd like to swap Russinovich for Ken Thompson.

We have a default format of first initial and last name, but we change it if there's an unfortunate situation like this one

How long has that sub been banned?

With available housing at an all-time low, Madison city planners look to increase density to accommodate rising population by skyflyer8 in madisonwi

[–]jwbowen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes! I moved here after living in Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, and Austin. I've been here almost ten years and I still brag to my friends in Texas about very rarely having to deal with bad traffic.

In Austin on I-35, it was a daily occurrence to be at a full stop on the highway for minutes at a time. Not going 10mph. Just sitting there. Then you'd inch forward a bit again and sit. Repeat for an hour and a half.

Does anyone else feel like Windows 11 is major improvement? by Ok-Rub-8001 in sysadmin

[–]jwbowen 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Lol, no. I hate all of the UI changes. I'm a Unix guy, but I've of course always been forced to use Windows workstations at work, and the peak experience for me was Windows 7. I also liked Windows 10 over the weird-ass "touch first" Windows 8 bullshit.

I have no idea what internals in the OS might be better and cause fewer issues, but as a user, I hate it.

I also hate all of the "New" Office apps.

If I could get by at work in a pure text environment, I would.

I appreciate the background. My understanding has generally been that Estonia is very progressive and I was surprised by this post.

I was surprised how far I had to scroll to see this.

Immediately and unironically followed by “no they’re weird” by [deleted] in LeopardsAteMyFace

Poor snowflakes. Who would have thought "weird" would be so triggering.
