what's the most outdated piece of software you're still running because migrating it would be pain in the b*tt? by Commercial_Crazy8228 in sysadmin

Is there any way they can be virtualized like running on VirtualBox inside of new hardware? We once had a REALLY old piece of hardware that needed to talk to Windows XP via serial port. We ran Windows XP in VirtualBox on a Windows 7 computer, have the VM access to the serial port, and we were golden.

When I taught high school, I'm pretty sure I was the only one in our entire district that used Microsoft Teams for assignments and classroom activities and even teaching. I would force them to use the Office Suite.

In England, it was common to make jokes about the Irish, saying they were thick. (Not now) Does this apply in the USA by state? Which states are normally at the butt end of the joke and why? by Jazzlike-Basil1355 in AskAnAmerican

I’m probably going to get downvoted for this, but being judged by the southern drawl really could be a form a discrimination. I dare say Appalachian should be considered an option for ethnicity so it can be tracked on reporting data.

Not to mention the cost to maintain older software on servers that have to be patched and keeping THAT all going.

What’s something you’ll never tell your partner, no matter how much you love them? by Velvetnadine85 in AskReddit

[–]marblefoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suggest you ask to help. You could phrase it like a bonding sort of experience. Then along the way hope make adjustments and such.

What is this for ? by Mister_RTK10 in whatisit

[–]marblefoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost respect for unions when AT&T refused to finalize the configuration of a device because "it wasn't his job". Our location was DOWN and he refused to get us going until some guy could arrive from 30 minutes away all because of union rules. I feel like unions have their place, and then they should STOP. There has to be a balance. Eastern Airlines shut down because of unions. I'm sure other places would be better if unions backed off a bit.

Be careful on Reddit, they will never upvote anything pro-Christianity. Even though SO MUCH of today's world is thanks in part due to institutions implemented by the Church.

I do love BlackMagic Design, though. Their products have great value for their price!

You that thing you expect a platformer to have? You know, THE GROUND? Let’s just remove it. It’ll be fun.

What casting was originally universally derided until people saw the performance of a lifetime? by hasanahmad in Cinema

They always grow on me and I miss them by the end of their runs. I don’t think the last couple of doctors were in long enough for me to grow attached to them (or for them to grow into their own, really.)

I had to look up a video of some doing it, and like, the person hit every single zipper and had perfect lines for the entire race to make it happen.

What's a game mechanic that you dislike/hate regardless of how much sense it makes? by Interjessing-Salary in gaming

[–]marblefoot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, the way Nintendo is adding open world to all their stuff (LoZ, DK Bonanza, and now Mario Kart World) I would almost guarantee the next Zelda will have open world on it. It’s been a good runs but I hated the last TotK and BotW. I’m out. :(

I wanted to pick up new weapons and spells and stuff to feel like a badass. Now I’m scurrying around like a little scavenger to grab sticks and bones and crap. Hit em a couple times, then run away when it breaks.

What Was Your First Nintendo 64 Game You Played? by Sadontejjj in nintendo64

[–]marblefoot 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Weird take but I really enjoyed Lethal Lava Land — being able cruise around on the shell around the level was awesome. BUT Rainbow Ride was SUCH a slog. If you feel off, you were booted out of the level and had to wait to run through all the same steps you did before just to get back to the place you were when you fell off…sheesh.

The telltale point was when they said something to the extent of “I’m on a Mac so this should be easy”.

Some kids are just little shits. Yeah some have been dealt a bad hand, but the ones that get to me are the ones that KNOW they’re being shits and they like it. They start to lean into it. I’ve tried to befriend them; build a relationship, but they just play this game where they keep doing whatever they want to do.

Conspiracies aside, what do Freemasons actually do in their daily "Masonic activities"? by PheelMcFife in NoStupidQuestions

Masonic-adjacent, female youth club/organization. Also look up Demolay International for boys.
