It's a work machine, it's for "my company," not me. I don't need to love it. It just needs to work.

I just need to remind myself, I need the compatibility, I need the compatibility. . . .

And now I get the ~joy~ of asking tech support why basic interface functions (like an icon on the desktop when a drive mounts) that Windows used to do (and Mac and *NIX still do) are not a thing anymore!

@adiwan Eh, I wanted a hassle-free shopping experience, resulting in me owning a future-expandable desktop computer. Indifferent as to pre-built or DIY, except for reasons I need a Windows license so
-
Well, the line for my online order is so long that I may not be getting a new computer after all

"Pinkie Pie Party Podcast" is fun to say. Pu-pu-pu-puh, lol

@adiwan And that's the FiM followup/sequel/whatever? Isn't, like, Pinkie Pie a podcaster or something?
-
@adiwan And I'm glad that you're glad, even if I have never heard of them. I take it you would recommend?
-
Well, now I just have to either pick up the new computron and monitor, either this evening or tomorrow morning...

@mrmattimation Was that how he got to Equestria??????? :O

Tried buying a new computer today. Placed an online order for in-store pickup. By the time my order is ready, all that's left is the monitor. I have until Monday to pick it up, though! So, second stab at ordering a computer, then I pick 'em both up at once! It's about twice what I wanted to pay, but also twice as much computron as I necessarily WANTED, so it isn't like I'm being SCREWED - just forcibly upgraded. And I'd planned on upgrading eventually, anyway, so I'm saving time! And if time==money, well then... :^]

@adiwan Long enough to tie back yet? Get there and you'll never need a haircut again! :p

My aunt used to poke a bunch of holes in my dad's filters to tick him off by making lights out of his regulars, or whatever

@mrmattimation Well, in CA anyway, they have a whole variety that I don't understand, but I know there are "100s" or something that means it's extra-long, and the paper tears easy enough. Not sure it'll be exactly accurate, but I suppose de-filtered could pass for unfiltered if done cleanly. X-Acto blade, maybe even.
-
@mrmattimation Really? Tried tearing the filter off of extra-long ones, or do you need the packaging to read specifically?
-
It also turned out that I was the only one gifted a craps table and set of manuals in fifth grade, and I don't think anyone else had even played Blackjack, let alone with their grandma at Easter... smh

@mrmattimation I took Intro Stats in college, there was a guy who couldn't grok "expectation" in the example given. The odds of the Lotto being so bad, one's dollar "investment" is expected to pay maybe pennies. He kept saying, "No, if I buy a ticket, I expect to win it all!" Mostly unironically, it seemed.

@mrmattimation Never thought I'd say it, but that Adams family ain't right

..."says he refuses to say" I mean "I won't say" was a thing he said but shouldn't I just say "refuse to say?"

Hell, I coulda called this one three years ago https://time.com/5868739/trump-election-results-chris-wallace/ Ol' Swampy Don says he refuses to say if he'll accept the election results in November.
