psud, to memes in They don't understand. We built these machines so that we can work more.

Seriously? Art, fishing, playing cards with friends, travelling the world, visiting galleries and museums

Though there’s a little truth in the saying idle hands are the devil’s tools. There would be more vandalism too.

Try 30 hour week. It’s superior to 4 “days” of random length. I had a couple of Philippines based contractors on my team who had 4 day weeks, but they still needed to work 40 hours

It’s nuts how wealthy some of those universities are. Several could easily provide free education and still turn a profit

I wonder if they use tuition fees mostly for rationing aceess

So they can up their investment income from $1B to $1.0001B

psud, to linux in Kernel 6.6.6 is out 😈

I like the word, it fits well with biased which is approximately opposite

My least favourite new word is ‘doom scrolling’ which is now used to mean “scrolling internet feeds mindlessly” where it originally meant “constantly refreshing the internet feed in the hope the result of the American presidential election will change”

I’d be happy if it was used in another doomy context

I haven’t had luck with auto login, as soon as it’s logged in it wants a password to unlock its keyring

I wish installers let you set low local security mode. We don’t all need strong security, some of us are just playing games

Framework sell laptops with Linux

I have a 286 running DOS 6 for when I’m feeling especially nostalgic

You can, but it takes a little effort

Or a GNU operating system with a Linux kernel and KDE desktop environment

But that’s a mouthful

But you still need to get at the audio settings to tell it that it should use your microphone for a microphone, not the USB camera

There was a TCP/IP bug that shared it’s exploit on versions of windows from windows for workgroups 3.11 (which you ran from the DOS prompt by typing ‘win’) through to windows 7 (which was the new hotness at the time)

That’s a bug conserved from the very first Microsoft implementation of TCP/IP through to the state of the art at the time

People were surprised at the time that it wasn’t a windows NT bug

You could get Ubuntu in a free like America style

You can look up beer recipes and buy equipment and ingredients from it though. And use web based or spreadsheet calculators on it to do beer related calculations

That beer is also not free, but assuming you make beer for a long time the price per pint (half litre to split the difference between UK and US pints) tends toward about 20c (though highly hopped beers like hazy pale ale can get towards a dollar a pint) which is pretty cheap
