@jellycrystals Mm, whoever gave you the disc, can't they try to replace it under warranty?

This is a righteous mess. I think I need to reorganize my base. I'm too lazy, though. :P

@dpwiz I remember playing Dune 2 and that you had to command each unit individually. Grouped actions weren't thought of back then. :)

@lukem@masto.ai @stux It was 888 for us for subtitles.

Still works, by the way.

@Vinni_pouch @AncientGood My compliments in being able to utter a 'B' repeatedly like that!

@AncientGood AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

@herid @oatmeal The visual clue was nice. It was hard to miss. Or easy, actually. 😋

@sergeant Is this an attempt to turn something like 'sleeping on the couch' into something positive? 😋

@josemanuel Not quite, indeed, I agree. But sometimes you really don't want to say much if at all, but just let them know that your post isn't lost in the void. Or whatever. There's plenty of times where I saw something that was humorous... so I just go like it instead of saying 'lol' or something equally nonsensical that's more effort, heh. I'd be annoyed at a shitton of 'lol' at my jokes or so. :D Just give me a like, that doesn't bother me like a mention does (no dopamine rush here for me, lol).

@josemanuel Ok, to you they're useless, noted. To me they're usually a form of acknowledgement (since Mastodon has an actual bookmark feature and I think other servers too). To someone else it means something else again. It doesn't really matter, they all convey a message of some sort anyway which is better than a silent treatment.

@herid Damn, I'd go to a mirror with mouth wide open to make very sure there are no extra holes! 😅

@ambulocetus oh gods, that's outright evil. 😅

@hvangalen Dus zou het altijd perfect werken tijdens een hittegolf? 😋

@josemanuel That's your opinion. I like it when people like my posts, thank-you-very-much! Comments are better if you want a discussion/conversation going, but a like can be sufficient.

If you want emoji reactions, hop over to a Misskey server or one of those others allowing those. I wouldn't mind Mastodon having those either, but this instance just doesn't have it.

@Hortense Hehe, well it's all up to you. :) If you don't feel the need for social media, then that's fine!

And, hi! :)

... Oh lol. A coworker had trouble connecting her work laptop to job via VPN at home. So my boss went to troubleshoot with her.

Turns out that she didn't connect the laptop to the internet at all at her home. "Did I have to connect my laptop to my WiFi?" ... well, yes, yes... how did she think the thing would have access to VPN?

She's actually quite a diginoob, this is not the first incident. Keeps the job interesting I suppose. 😂

She's a great teacher otherwise. Just make sure you've explained anything techy beforehand. In detail. ;)
