I’ve been using Xbox Game Pass on PC, and while for me it’s a good value. Their invite system is terrible compared to Valve. I just want to play games with my friends and Valve seems to have that part down. Hell even the whole “play with

Yeah I think the main takeaway for me is that the work they are doing for Linux isn’t being kept only to themselves. Betting on Linux is giving people options. I would love to drop windows all together, and they are making this more of a

Agreed. I’m sort of relieved after watching videos that there isn’t a big reason to drop more for some more storage and a matte screen (and better case). And I find it promising is that the micro SD slot loads nearly as fast as the SSD. My

It’s so wild that most of those books were required reads by my public school. So many wonderful books on the list.

I grabbed Destiny 2 and some expansions a while back on a humble bundle. I had a blast, it was fun and could play with friends. Then end game seemed to not have much going for it. And it was confusing on what you could and couldn’t acces

Lol. People can’t take a stance? I think it’s well within their right to pull their music for what they believe in.

Best trash pizza out there. We don’t have many places by me but we have one great Italian place. Guy running the shop makes a mean pie but not the best customer service and this pandemic has not eased things for him. But once again the p

It’s funny how people use that 2% to reinforce their opinion that COVID isn’t a big deal. But we have a virus that is very communicable just racking up deaths. I feel like we are approaching the point of everyone either being vaccinated or

The article reads like we knew all along that natural immunity worked better than vaccines. We didn’t, we have data now that provides strong evidence to the protection by having natural immunity. I know it’s really trying to hard to tap in

Sort of off topic but I have an X220 but I’m having issues getting the trackpad to work. Seems to only recognize the track point. Anyone else have similar issues?

I tend to think the problem is just inherent to business. When business is booming nobody thinks are we going to keep this up? Are there factors that may cause this growth to slow? Generally they just make higher sales targets for next yea

And the alternative is that you sign up for a Meta account so your info will just be shared anyway. It was a while ago they made that announcement and it hasn’t happened. I was going to get the Quest 2 but I came to the realization I don’

I definitely agree with your sentiment. Being in VR all the time seems exhausting, but being able to switch between the two seems pretty awesome.

I bought an Index recently and love it. Lots of fun games and to be honest a lot of hours logged are in the free valve demos and the Steam VR environments (quests which award items for your avatar). That being said I have zero desire to do

I found that to be an interesting read. They tried to argue that it was infringing on copyrights because it changed code, which it does not. But the court further went on to say if they ruled against adblocking it would encroach on people

Definitely sick in droves. I have three people I work with that are all out sick today with COVID. We all work remote but their families they live with are all sick. Omnicron is spreading like wildfire.

Yeah I just read the article and it’s very clear they were out of touch and a pretty terrible person. Then they transition and are shocked about being passed on when they would have done the same thing before they transitioned. I don’t fe

I would have loved game pass when I was younger for the sheer number of games. Now personally it offers me the ability to try things out and not regret dropping money on those games. I don’t play nearly as many games as I used to, but pay

On one hand I’m happy people are wising up about how they shouldn’t take all this crap from workplaces and bad managers. You deserve to be respected and compensated for your work and not abused. All of that is great. I just hope it spurs

A minivan is practical especially with 2 or more kids. In my area vast majority of people have SUVs and pickups and it’s normally one person in it. People have to have that GMC Denali or other equivalent giant vehicle to show off I guess.

As was mentioned in the public sector I feel like it was the norm. People liked having their every other Friday off (or other day they chose). When we were always in the office I chose to come in because fridays were quiet and I could wor

X220 checking in. All I’ve done is a new battery, SSD and upgraded to 16gb ram. My son plays Minecraft and Roblox on it all the time and works great. Keep considering upgrading it but it works great for what’s it’s being used for.

Hmm I’ll take a look. Problem is we have a whole lengthy process to install software, so that’s sort of a hurdle.

Not that interesting g, all the companies make their marketing claims but they have caveats. Sure this intel may be more powerful but it also uses a lot more power.

I’ve only worked in the public sector and have only had to PIP people a few times. It’s almost always a sign that you need to get out. I’ve only done it when I’m at wits end with a person. They all ended up quitting before we got to the

Not surprising to me as I was only seriously considering seeing Shang Chi, the Eternals and Spider Man in theaters. And only because they would be great on the big screen. It’s not worth the potential risk of COVID, but really chilling on

Thanks for the insight. To be honest I have almost never fully folded down the middle seats, since you have to move the front seats up, move the floor mats and then fold them in.

Do you like the vehicle? We have a Town and Country and while I’m not a fan of the minivan life it’s just so damn practical with kids. The Pacifica seems more car like than our Town and Country (seems like it sits lower, maybe handles bet
