          If you ever want to tense up a boomer, pronounce DOS like “dose” instead of “daws”. Works every time. Also tell them its a spanish/mexican word that the operating system was jokingly named after, because it works hard.

          Its a power move at thanksgiving to derail the uncles if trump comes up. If they want to talk nonsense and bullshit, then we all can too.

            Was just commenting on the technical details. I only use proprietary software when paid to do so. On Linux for 25 years.

            Dang, I also play proprietary games :(

              I have done it before in my own research on certain subjects they were in relevant points of my studies regarding. Sauerbraten is the closest I’ll go off FOSS solid anymore and that once in the last decade to build something for someone else and demo it in certain ways and it’s FPS nature to their interests. I have discarded interest in video games personally. I got a good stack of board games to replace them in my life. Comps are for something else primarily now so until I get better at those skills, VG’s for my vapors.
