@w00tw000t @ChristianSelig Nobody expected Reddit's API to be free forever. We all knew this was a possibility. That doesn't mean we can't also be frustrated that Reddit didn't handle it more professionally.

@IrishSpring What have you done? I opened a new pack this morning, and I smell like a thirsty teenager who bathed himself in cheap body spray. It's a good thing I have some Dove for Men in the back of the cabinet.

@PhilaParking Thanks!

@PhilaParking Does "suspended" status on my disputed ticket mean it's still under review, or it's been dropped?

@TechConnectify @healermikey It's a hobby, like any other. Some people like writing for fun (see r/writingprompts and all the fan fiction out there). Yet, I have as little interest in that as you do in networking.

@eevblog I just happened to have an assignment due today. So, naturally, I watched the latest EEVBlog videos to procrastinate!

@HeySteets @TechConnectify But even so, sometimes it'll end up being a legitimate call from a number I don't recognize. I do get them from time to time. E.g. the apartment front desk calling to tell me I have a large package or random stuff like that. Often they're doing me a favor, so feels kinda rude.

@Chrozayis @TechConnectify @fluentdemonbat I'm certainly not saying it can't be done (and admittedly, I'm not as familiar with DAWs and 3D modeling tools). But in general, if you learned on industry standards like Adobe CS, switching to Linux will be far from smooth sailing.

[Dominick Pastore @dominickpastore]

@TechConnectify @fluentdemonbat For me, Windows 10 is better than 8, but 7 was the ideal in many ways. 7 felt like a polished product, and 10 is still figuring out what it wants to be. E.g. they redesigned the control panel into settings, but it's half-baked. Why aren't all settings there?

[Dominick Pastore @dominickpastore]

@TechConnectify @Chrozayis @fluentdemonbat I think a lot (though not all) of the people who advocate for Linux come from a development perspective, where Linux does "just work" as well if not better. It's a totally different experience from other uses (*anything* artistic on Linux is going to be a bad time).

[Dominick Pastore @dominickpastore]

@TechConnectify @SedaryRaymaker @psssssyche I'm a developer and I'd never dream of touching a Mac. Linux is the platform we target, so developing on the same one makes life easier.

That said, we don't do any kind of mobile or web development, and some of of my colleagues do still use Mac (sometimes with Linux VMs!)

@achornback @eevblog It's the PO box for his business. It's already public knowledge (posted on his website).

@CommodoreZ @TechConnectify Have you seen the OpenRCT project? A complete reverse engineer of the original game to make it run on modern systems, with some bonus enhancements to boot

@Dre_2_point_0 @TechConnectify Sometimes some parts of the house get stuffy while others get cool. The overall temperature is comfortable, but you need some circulation to even things out. Some of these areas might not have windows. Also some people have allergies.
