I use Gnome defaults.

Their going to have to find something a bit more nourishing.

But they’ll still sell you a $180 USB C cable that’s no different than one you can get for $75 and has all of it’s labels.

Sorry, best we can do is one more streaming app on your smart TV.

I’d say a max of 95% of the time.

Why did I read that whole thing? I could have stopped at any point, but I couldn’t look away, like a train wreck.

I’m not trying to protect lenovo. I think they are a shit company now, and I should have some my research better before buying my computer, but they aren’t the only ones doing this. Anyone who’s done BIOS updates knows that shouldn’t be done automatically, but manufacturers and Microsoft seem to think it’s a good idea to push it through automatic updates.

I had windows update try to brick the BIOS on my Lenovo workstation recently. I can’t believe Microsoft and manufacturers do this kind of shit. Luckily my workstation had dual BIOS so I could recover it. Between that and the fact that lenovo manufacturer locks their processors I would have waited until I could afford a supermicro had I known.

I like Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett’s version of Baby It’s Cold Outside. I try to avoid most other Christmas songs, but especially Mariah Carey. I also worked in a department store for five years, so lots of bad memories of Christmas songs for months.

That’s why they are missing. I installed Arch once got annoyed in seconds and went back to SUSE. I extensively use the arch wiki though, so can I get one or the other?

I forgot about the Dune popcorn bucket reference until your explanation.

Don’t forget poor Nokia. Maemo/Meego was awesome, but too late. Then Microsoft decided to put the final nail in the coffin, and drop it in the ocean with windows phone.

Installing any OS is not for everyday users. Most people wouldn’t have any idea how to install windows either. Whoever is setting up the computer should take care of all of that to begin with. I’ve set up multiple computers for older family members with SUSE and they are all happy with them, and I get almost no tech support calls. The one exception is printing, but you get that with anything because printing sucks. It’s really to my advantage with my step father’s computer because he has negative computer knowledge. He was one of those people who had a million add on bars in IE because he’d click the accept button on every shady website he visited.

The recent update on my Motorola made sure to tell me how awesome it is that it has per app volume control. My Nokia N9 was made in 2011 and had individual application volume control out of the box.

We’re already up shit creek without a paddle.

See there’s the problem right there. They shouldn’t have sold the robot. It should have been a subscription model, with micro transactions. That would have kept the investors flocking in.

I’d like to say this is sarcasm, but unfortunately it’s the most likely lesson these ghouls will learn from this.

Tank Girl

I rewatch “New Rose Hotel” every once in a while trying to like it. It’s a William Gibson story set in the Neuromancer universe. It stars Willem Dafoe, Christopher Walken, and Asia Argento. It should be good, but it absolutely is not.
