Barring any unforeseen circumstances, professionally, I am no longer a software engineer. I'm now an Aerospace Manufacturing Engineer.

I apologize to the nobody that this inconveniences.

Windows 11 running in a QEMU vm using my 7900x's iGPU, while linux uses my dedicated card.

If you had told me so much as a year ago that this would be my operating system endgame, I wouldn't have believed you.

I'm about to invent a new device called the Flash Drive Cooler.
It'll be a minifridge the shape and size of a USB hub.
It's sole purpose will be to act as a place to keep your crap flash drive between uses to avoid thermal throttling during large file transfers.

looking for skill to hone
finds person who achieved it
asks them "is this skill achieved via grinding or lockpicking?"
person is confused while i pull out a chart showing what counts as lockpicking or grinding
person laughs, answering, "just practice, you'll get it"
looks inside
