actionjackson posted:it's so loving mind blowing to me how addictive consumption is, it's like loving heroin or probably worse I'm starting to really loathe working with computers because every task requires a specific thing-doer and you never have that thing, it's always just more poo poo to buy and then toss in a drawer. I can't do a firmware install on a printer because I don't have a flash drive. The only flash work issued me is an encrypted one, which doesn't work outside of an operating system, and since I don't have any files to move around and have access to cloud storage, such a thing is just completely loving useless to us. It's a flash drive, but not juuuust the right kind, and it was made more complex as a gimmick and as a result it's useless. Monitors have HDMI, Display Port, DVI, or VGA, usually two kinds, sometimes only one. If you're working with older stuff it's DVI on the video output, if your monitor is newer, you need an adapter. If you have a big environment, you'll probably want each permutation of adapter because it will eventually come up and you will not have time to rifle through yet more drawers for the one specific thing doer. I spend so much time everyday rifling through drawers and my backpack looking for the latest tiny object I need I move only one step forward towards getting anything done. At this point I'll space out at my desk most of the day not doing anything at all because I'm so sick of going out there to discover I need a Thingmaster 5000, say oh that's easy, go back to get it, and find we only have Thingmaster 6000s and 2000s and then I look like a loving loser idiot because I can't clear that printer error when I said I would. I'm not going to get any of this poo poo done anyway no matter what I do, why even waste energy?

Kramer was always up to some weird poo poo and was full of surprises. How long into the show was it when they revealed his name was Cosmo?

The EU actually managed a small victory on this front by mandating that all chargers have to be USB C. It's not much in the grand scheme of things, but it's a start. Apple is being assholes about it too, they're putting the USB C on the wrong end of the cable so they can keep their lightning port in the device.

Firmware encrypted drives are annoying because of the limited applications they can be reused for. I have one that was given to me and it's annoying that I can't just easily throw it into a laptop or PS3 or whatever. I am baffled though how you can work on computers for a living and not have a single flash drive on hand. It would be like being an auto mechanic and not having a 10mm wrench or socket of any kind.

All those graphics cards just switched to mining some other coin though, it's not like the miners are just going to go "darn, you beat us, guess we'll throw away the entire global supply of graphics cards that we've bought over the last half decade". e: Oh good Marketplace covers that, I didn't expect them to so I didn't initially check lmao quote:Meghan McCarty Carino: So ethereum has reduced its power intake.

Amazon lets you download music for offline play. In my experience, it doesn't matter. When I drive through mountains and canyons where signal drops out, it will just finish the track it's on and not start another until I have cell reception again. Like it has to authenticate every song as it cues up, and if it can't call home, you ride in silence.
