Company: "we made a new product that is better than our old product!"
Tech reviewers: collective gasp "unheard of! unprecedented! truly a first for the industry."

About 15 years too late but ya know, it's something
(I wrote that when groggy, but my thinking was that it's supposed to be read aloud/verbally, so you'd ignore the $ and say the cents. My brain was still asleep.)
About $3.50
E: also why do we say "three dollars and fifty cents" when it's clearly "dollar three [and] fifty [cents]". Language weird, return to grunts.
Great, so we'll have 3 shitty ways to buy things that suck. Oh yeah, I guess we will include ebay too, fine.
Alternative: didn't we already have this shitty store? it's called Amazon.
Sparky, stop eating my teeth! Give it back! GIVE IT BACK!
Boss: locks you in the building
Boss: you live here now. I expect 3x productivity for a $0.50 cent raise with a maximum daily rate of quiet mumbling. Problem solved!
there is just one
Well it's cloudflare, not cloudsflare. Maybe overcasthosting, or sunblockservers...
I don't argue with people. I'm just right all the time.
Considering that my desired workplace is "laying in bed for $5k a week", no I can't say that I did. Survival and a safe place to shit dictated that.
one late night, cruising with friends and chatting:
"you know, we should put a minugun on the prius for our getaway vehicle. defensive and economical! nobody will be able to follow us!"
and the reaction was basically [meme]
A beeping, clear plexiglass container it is!

That one tank game where you took turns against the computer and/or others players begs to differ :P

hard drive failure
they are not worthy of the title if they just had one disk and no backups. to be so knowledgeable and yet so stupid is a memorable achievement.
(my first post on lemmy so I hope I'm doing this right)
Distro: Spiral Linux (Debian, KDE spin), by recommendation
System: Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 2 (Intel) (distro recommended as I am looking for Debian(-based), + btrfs, snapshots, and fde, included via the gui installer)
I'm having issues getting ModemManager to unlock my X55 modem. This morning I wiped my drive to install Spiral (KDE), coming from Kubuntu 24.04. While the modem worked after running the proper fcc unlock script in Kubuntu, it is entirely missing in my Spiral install. While I assumed that it would not be that simple, I copied /etc/ModemManager from my Kubuntu live environment to Spiral, ran
sudo ln -sft /etc/ModemManager/fcc-unlock.d /usr/share/ModemManager/fcc-unlock.available.d/105b:e0ab
and restarted, but alas that's not enough, so I'm stuck. I have added the network profile + apn to ModemManager (the UI) but of course without the modem unlocked, I can't connect. I'm new to cellular modems in Linux (this was a windows machine until ~6 weeks ago) but I'm otherwise comfortable with the terminal and commands. The modem was working as expected last night in Kubuntu.
I haven't got the system setup yet (trying this first before going further) so if I botch this, an install is no problem. I'm assuming it's either (or both?) a service, or a missing package that sets up what's needed, but I'm at a loss as to how to proceed.
I discussed this here https://lemmy.world/comment/10540509 this morning, though I think I got all the important details typed up above. But maybe it could be useful somehow.
Any suggestions are welcomed :)
