The Internet icon is a fucking liar, and if you don’t agree with me you haven’t been on enough networks.

the_weez@midwest.socialto linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Your favorite font for terminal and GTK/QT apps?0·11 days agoThis is the best font IMO. I used to use source code pro, but I switched to Plex a few years ago and it’s all I want to use now.
the_weez@midwest.socialto Linux@lemmy.ml•What do you guys think about RHEL 10 adopting RDP instead of VNC or Spice?0·11 days agoEvery time I try to use Gnome boxes I walk away frustrated and confused. I thought it was just an alternative GUI that did the same thing as VirtManager. It’s doing something behind the scenes that is very different and not perfermant. I use spice with VirtManager daily and I don’t have issues, but I’m not using the spice webdav stuff either, just display I think.
the_weez@midwest.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Adobe Creative Cloud subscriptions are getting more expensiveEnglish0·11 days ago$60 per month (if you sign a 1 year agreement) is sky high for software subscriptions. Sounds like Stockholm syndrome.

The lion has joined the botnet.
So that’s how my coworker ‘accidently’ shit on the top of the fridge.
the_weez@midwest.socialto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Kids nowadays don't have many (if any) videogame heroes...0·21 days agoIt’s really only canon until both Wolfenstein and Doom changed their timelines, but the original Doomguy was B.J. Blazkowicz III
the_weez@midwest.socialto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Kids nowadays don't have many (if any) videogame heroes...0·21 days agoAccording to John Romero and Tom Hall, Billy is also the ancestor of B.J. Blazkowicz, AKA Doomguy. It’s Blazkowicz all the way down.
the_weez@midwest.socialto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Kids nowadays don't have many (if any) videogame heroes...0·21 days agoThis sounds more like your experience, than anything over-arching. PC games had less ‘heros’ than console gaming at the time but by 1992 there were tons of characters to latch on to. Dragon quest and Final Fantasy where running on full steam by the early 90s. Mega Man had his 5th game out by then, Mario was getting into karts, multiple Street Fighter games, Sonic in his second outing, and the list goes on. I think the point OP is making is not that every kid had a video game hero, but that they didn’t have to look very far to find one.
the_weez@midwest.socialto Linux@lemmy.ml•Progress towards universal Copy/Paste shortcuts on Linux0·23 days agoWe started calling wireless mice hamsters because they got no tail.
I see a SATA cable, so I’m guessing it will work fine.
the_weez@midwest.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•4chan hacked and taken offline. Hacker reopens /qa/ and leaks all admins emails.English0·2 months agoI wish people would stop censuring themselves on lemmy like they do for the other social medias. You can say shit, and a lot worse now that you aren’t asking a corpo for permission to speak.
Ew GitHub? I’d rather go back to SVN
Yeah, I’m not sure how well YouTube is going to run on Kodi, I’ve never actually tried it. If you have another Linux box around you could install Kodi and try it pretty quickly.
This looks nice!
https://libreelec.tv/ If you like Kodi this is the business. I have had it working with remotes, the biggest drawback for me was streaming services not supporting 4k on the Odroid N2+ I was trying to use. Plex worked great through Kodi, and that was my biggest use case.
If you ain’t pissin’ I’m not kissin’
the_weez@midwest.socialto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Ever wonder how the term "pink slip" came about? This is how you were fired. A pink slip on your desk.0·2 months agoIt was pink because it was part of a carbon copy form. You write on the top sheet of paper and then you get 3 copies of what you wrote, one for the employee and 2 for other records. Carbon copy paper was very popular before you could just print 3 copies of something.
How do you feel about trying Virtual Machine Manager instead? I really prefer it over virtual box, personally. It uses the KVM virtualization built into the Linux kernel instead of needing a module like vbox. If you want to stick with virtual box for some reason, I would make sure that all the drivers are installed on the windows guest, you should really always do that with a VM.
https://sysguides.com/install-a-windows-11-virtual-machine-on-kvm is a pretty good guide I have followed for VirtManager.
