Ugh... I don't really want to be that guy, but she was well liked when she was first in office. In fact, I dare say she was cool once when she advocated for more AIDS support in the late 80s and pissed off Reagan, which is always good. But that was around when I was born, haha.

Unfortunately House seats rarely see competition, and I'm certain she grew complacent with age. Almost 40 fucking years, oof.

Just naming stuff research has demonstrated to be bad, haha. The literature is quite definitive on it, but you know how the MBAs in management care about research.

A transient obsessed with speed who befriends a minor and beats up a portly old man.

See, that study that suggested 4 day work weeks increase productivity (and that a majority of companies kept after the trial) apparently lacked the ever so important control group of working 7 days a week and for extra hours per day. I'm sure that really increases productivity.

While we're at it, no remote days and everyone work in an open office with no cubicles or walls to block noise, and certainly no distracting windows.

Why did that shitty influencer beat up the crazy guy from The Hangover?

I imagine with denuvo he'll have to wait a moment before he can sail the seas. Not too long, though.

Hold yourself over with emulated DQ 1 and 2!

I adore the first trilogy of DQ games but I'm holding off cause I don't like or trust SE anymore (plus, denuvo, ugh).

I will say, it's a better experience to play 1 thru 3 in order with no prior knowledge of what makes them a trilogy. Having 3 stand alone kind of misses that "oh fuuuuuuuck" realization I got to experience (and subjected a friend to, who has yet to forgive me lol). It's what made 3 one of my favorites next to 5 and 11.

Oh yeah, that multiple organizations things absolutely fuuuucks me since I'm adjunct at multiple universities/colleges. It keeps trying to default me to a place I don't even work at anymore and somehow still refuses to let me leave it without reinstalling Windows (which I won't do as I'll be moving to Linux full time once I do).

What blows my mind is MS fucking bought Skype and somehow Teams still can't handle video calls correctly. The actual fuck did they do with that acquisition?

Sounds like a lovely Monday.

That was the suggestion I was going to make! They have always been burpy and silly and "Job's Done!" and all that. Even the sheep will bleat out a Babe reference with enough clicks!

Thanks for your thread, I also have to upgrade my Blade 15. It automatically installed Windows 11 which broke the built in monitor (lol). Let me know if you have any success with these comments' suggestions!
