Linux would be a fucking nightmare for corporations. Period.

There’s a caged white rat in the Janitor’s room in the first one with the a note saying “don’t forget to feed Scruffy”. A reference to Futurama’s janitor, Scruffy. I actually took the time to look this up while replaying through the first one before Catalyst released...

I loved the original game, probably replayed it a half a dozen times, and I never knew about this. Crazy!

I agree...this is the third story I read that suggests that this OS is terrible.

Someone with a little decent input. :)

Calling this a “sandbox” was incredibly misleading for me, personally. I would just call this a training mode.

One time I pulled out a USB stick without safely removing and it bricked it. That convinced me to only use the remove option for a month or two before I went back to just yanking it out.

The one time you are running out the door with a ton of info on a USB stick, and pull it out to show up where ever you are going, only to not have the info you needed will be the start of a good habit of properly ejecting your USB drive.

I thought that Windows default setting was for fast removal of usb devices? Even with that setting you can still hose up a drive by removing it during a write.

I remember when flash drives weren’t mainstream at all. Unmounting somewhat large drives (1GB) took forever since it buffered all the writes, thinking it was a regular hard drive.

Me: Yanking non-ejected flash drives without care, since 1979. I’ve done it a bathousand times. But just once, I jacked up a customer’s drive BAD and couldn’t believe it was because I yanked it without “stopping it properly”. Everything was fine until I did that, though, so I had to take the blame.

Remember they days not parking the head of your hard drive was terrifying? Man...i feel so old today.

But I closed that program. I CLOSED IT!

I haven’t safely removed a usb stick...ever.

I perform 99% of my work from home. Yesterday I had to go into the office for the first time in over two years. Luckily my badge still worked, and I was able enter the building. I hopped onto the elevator and followed someone through a badge scanning door. I didn’t know if my card would work on that floor but I took

Pro tip: If you blend in and act like you belong somewhere, most people wont think twice. This is true “almost” everywhere.

That’s kinda... morally wrong. This guy sounds like he’s kind of a jerk. Seriously, who just does that? In any industry?

a) we’re gonna run out of chocolate

Same place as we are running out of oil, running out of Ozone, and running out of Tequila.
