Welp it's moving time, and as a renter in California that means getting to be treated like a suspicious criminal just out of penitentiary, rather than a goddamn customer with a briefcase of money

also, you all should totally play through The Lost Vikings... Blizzard is giving it away for free, which is its own little miracle. us.battle.net/account/download

Some like to criticize the trend of naming software vulnerabilities, but consider that in CA we name our wildfires.

Someone left a comment of sneering disagreement on my Steam game review?

Haha I don’t want to waste my time on this person *block*

I need to rewatch Robocop 2 and 3

That was a fun dumb time

Are you fucking kidding me Parallels Desktop can't open OVF, the open format for virtual machine files, without downloading the competitor's tool (VMware ovftool) and converting to the competitor's VM file format first!

That is the official workaround kb.parallels.com/en/122835

All other virtual machine managers have supported OVF since like 2012.

If you have a really frustrating friend or family member that everyone tries to help but never succeed, count how often they use phrases like "I ought to" / "I should" and "maybe" / "probably" and "I guess" around statements of intent.

Language is action. Stop using these weak words. These aren't volitional statements they are self-defeating ones.

I always suspected the Ohio Valley was secretly hell...

I love the passive-aggressiveness of Safari reminding me every time I use Google Docs that it’s a piece of shit.
