    I know right, flooding in Texas and we are still talking about this creep?

    Im all for this. I miss the tactile feedback of older hard drives, you knew the computer was actually doing something. New computers are too quiet, like electric cars.

    If you’d have read the articles you’d know that Mel is not writing or directing. This is the same director that did Barb and Star go to Vista Del Mar.

    As a fellow zachtronics fan I will check this out when I get off work. What language and or engine did you end up using for this?

    Thank you for this! Too bad there isn't an already prepared virtual project where you can view this in 3D. Might be a fun coding project to load the slices into a UI for easier vie…

    The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (which…

    From what I have seen they are just not creating any new policies really for group policy and they are mostly developing intune.

    On the admin side it's gotten worse. Working in IT and having to support Windows 11 through Active Directory is a nightmare now. MS has removed almost all admin control in favor of…

    Mr. Robot had one of the craziest endings I have ever seen in a show. I'll admit I had a tough time watching it around S2 because so much was unexplained, and I felt like I was goi…

    It worked okay at first but seemed to start just giving me answers again after a few questions. This was ChatGPT for reference. I might try something again now that they have "Proj…

    Hell, I’d argue a similar prompt could be useful for a lot of people. I use something similar for coding and ask it not to provide direct code and more a guide on coding principals…

    Well if more than 3 shakes is a wank then the 4th threesome is a poly relationship.

    Sadly no, I am still designing and testing the units in the field to make sure they can withstand the elements. I probably should though as I imagine quite a few people would be in…

    I play airsoft in the middle of nowhere, when 300 people show up the cell towers can’t hold up and my phone signal is useless. Using LoRa radios we can still communicate long dista…

    I'd argue that's how all modern "cloud" services are, some cool tech that Microsoft purchased and then integrated with duct tape and chewing gum. SharePoint, Exchange Online, Azure…

    Sure thing! I often use it to add code comments to my powershell scripts after I've written them, sprinkling in quotes from some of my favorite movies from the 80s like Spaceballs,…

    I made a custom GPT that was explicitly told to include snark, sarcasm, and dark humor in all of my IT related responses or code comments, it makes my day every time.

    Not either of them but I use Power-hell in my daily job to automate a lot of active directory related things, I can also confirm it can piss you off and has quite a few 'isms or go…

    I also see the value of the humor added to a game played with a group of friends and don't see it as a negative towards someone with a comparable or even exact condition. I believe…

    That has not been my experience with switch games on the Steam Deck. Anytime shaders are loaded the FPS seems to stutter which in the newer Mario game is like every few seconds at …

    A few years ago I started messing with Unity and for the most part it was a decent engine with many platforms you can target which is a huge plus. Their whole licensing issue of la…

    No they aren't always aimed at Windows based systems but it is the most widely used operating system so of course it is targeted and exploited. Every system is vulnerable. The secr…
