I mean that's kind of weird and annoying but just because I mentioned Apple products in passing doesn't mean we have to go into everyone's complaints about them

I probably misspoke in trying to fit to post limitations, being that it was already two posts long, but I meant a user being calcified into the systems they are using. But user calcification didn't exactly seem correct either.

I don't know about BlueBeam but gaming-wise lots of people are going with Bazzite. I've seen that's not the be-all-end-all for Steam and such on Linux but it might be a decent starting point. It's what I'm using but I've had minor frustrations potentially trying to do too much with dual-booting

I can't do one, I'm the guy who always has the shows he likes cut short.

Dark Angel, Jericho, Invasion,V remake, more than I can remember

I'd probably have similar issues to switching to iPhone now after having only Android phones for as long as they've existed. Hell, I got my first non-Samsung since the Galaxy 2 this last year and I've even had an adjustment period based on how long I've used their specifically tuned Galaxy phones.

As someone actively trying to make the change and a more-than-average pc enjoyer, I think a large part of it comes from wanting to hold on to what you had in Windows and learning a new system XX years after using the same system for so long. There's something to be said for system calcification.

I’m *still* feeling the effects, financial especially, of that decision some asshole suits made. They should legit count themselves blessed that by month 9 of unemployment I had not self-immolated on Riot’s front steps. But the studio made an enemy for life and I will die spitting venom about them.

That got me an answer, at least: it was nothing to do with me and everything to do with the studio’s ontologically evil c-suite acting without thought or care to whose lives they ruined. And they *had* ruined mine. I’d end up being unemployed for 9 months as the game industry burned down.

I could not get my old job back. Riot had forced me into unemployment in what we now know to be the worst job market in industry history.

I finally found Riot’s Head of People on LinkedIn and sent her a 2000-word message explaining in detail how badly they had fucked me and asked them to explain.

I think they're excluded from the rate/event, not that they're excluded from trading in at all?

Perhaps black voters remembered this stunt.
