I’m guessing they wanted a futuristic cyber syringe and figured they could get away with this.

Rio as in Plan 9?

The foot clan is strong

I think I disagree, " is right next to the enter key?

Where does it go?

I did not consent

Is that a whole ass piano they brought outside?

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.

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

This 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.

Every 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.

$60 per month (if you sign a 1 year agreement) is sky high for software subscriptions. Sounds like Stockholm syndrome.

darktable.org Darktable is like Adobe Lightroom but open source, and I honestly think it’s better at this point.

The lion has joined the botnet.

Forget Arch, I’m a SataNix man now.

It’s really only canon until both Wolfenstein and Doom changed their timelines, but the original Doomguy was B.J. Blazkowicz III

According to John Romero and Tom Hall, Billy is also the ancestor of B.J. Blazkowicz, AKA Doomguy. It’s Blazkowicz all the way down.

This 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.

We started calling wireless mice hamsters because they got no tail.

I’m on Sway and I use the mouse copy and paste all day everyday.
