The tragically ironic part is that Calvin went straight to watching TV as a way of avoiding 'wasting' his life.

The modern day equivalent is so common that it gained the name doomscrolling.

If it matters, I am on Fedora silverblue.

It does. HDR isn't really well supported on xorg-based systems. Fedora has Wayland though, which handles HDR better.

HDMI

This also matters. HDMI 2.1 isn't supported on amd systems just yet. It doesn't matter unless you want 144hz at 4k, but it does matter. Linux does a better job of supporting displayport, but tvs don't usually have displayport inputs.

I don't know that I ever had a windows setup that didn't have a bigass chunk of lag whenever the background changed. I'd get tired of all my windows freezing every ten minutes so fast.

Re: the electric ones

It's like a 9v battery. It hurts, but I can't stop licking it anyways.

It really depends on your who your workers are, but I absolutely don't use emojies in work emails. I do use them in teams messages though.

Emails are for conversations I want documented. Chat messages are the equivalent of a desk conversation.

Also, yeah, angry emojies are still taboo at any type of work chat for me. Can't be seen as angry at the office.

Lmao. The joke of this comic is that a 'pong' comic is really inane. The ball goes back and forth, and then one of the paddles misses. The exclamation point is cute though.

Oh and also, here's a fancy that does exactly that, which I adore. https://m.fanfiction.net/s/12986683/5/

Chapter 5 is a jump cut to post using the clones to rescue anakin, but before the rest of the war. The earlier chapters are an intro on why obiwan is different enough to stop things.

If you say so. AFAIK that's legends stuff which I am not actually versed in.

The funniest part is that 'straight up lose the war' was actually a pretty solid choice for the Jedi. It'd force the republic to face the consequences of its actions with regards to the outer rim, force palpatine to stall and delay the droid army, and it would give dooku and the separatists time to get a solid outer rim government going. There's a lot of negatives too I'm sure, but at least they wouldn't be personally leading enslaved people to their deaths against a droid army.

They exist, but double check that they're actually 2tb. The listings I saw had more fakes than real ones.
