I think I tried that once & had trouble getting it installed… Don’t remember what kind of trouble though, I suppose I should try it again.

If I’m watching YouTube on my TV, I mute it when anything longer than a 5 second ad comes on. If what I’m watching is less than 10 minutes, I’ll just back out and start in again, usually it will come up without the ad, then seek to where I left off. Although oftentimes lately, I’ll be watching a 5 minute video, and I’ll get 1 minute in and get hit with an unskippable 2 minute ad, I just quit YouTube for the day.
If you want to confuse people… I pronounce /etc as “ets”, but one of my coworkers recently called it “slash e t c” and I had to ask him to repeat it a couple times before I figured out what he meant…
Have you ever tried catching flies? Vinegar works better than honey, after all, flies eat shit.
Have I just experienced youngsplaining?
Once upon a time, there was a Linux distro that would fit on a single floppy, it was intended for system rescue, diagnostics, that sort of thing…
I don’t think the OS was sophisticated enough to tell the difference… A drive letter is a drive letter…
As I recall, my windows 95 CD-ROM contained a bunch of floppy-sized .cab files in a folder, so it’s entirely possible it was available as a set of floppies…
Now I want to do this at my job… I actually have a box of 5.25" floppies somewhere…
Yeah, when I hauled my groceries by bicycle, I wouldn’t want the larger sizes… But I also wouldn’t be bitching out the person who isn’t involved in the decision process…
On a related note, error messages. When I ask you what it says, tell me what it says, not what you think it means. If it meant what you thought it meant, you wouldn’t be asking me for help.
In other words… differently.
Newton’s theory of gravity … severely inaccurate.
Except it’s not - it’s accurate enough within certain limits to still be useful today. It’s only inaccurate in extreme cases. Relativity is more accurate, sure, but outside of the extremes, it’s more complex than Newton’s and not worth the extra trouble.
GPS wouldn’t work if you were correct.
Common misconception. It would work fine, just differently.
I’m super picky, but I like Hawaiian pizza, so I don’t think it’s that…
Base 16 is great when you’re interacting with a computer, but aside from that, not much. Only being divisible by 2 is kind of a pain in the real world.
Didn’t trey parker & matt stone already do that?
I guess that was Jesus vs Santa Claus…
Creampie, or santorum depending on which orifice it leaks out of…
