I think the story is only part of specific mysticist beliefs within the Abrahamic religions and not in any of the main texts

GM: Ask, and it shall be given unto you.

Solomon: I just wanna flip through that collection of splatbooks you’ve got back there.

There’s also a Manga Bible, which is a pretty rad artistic interpretation as well. :D

That’s AWESOME. I hope Nextcloud gets better at this soon. So far I’ve been needing to spend some time renaming the files from 64 character CDN hash names to tags like

"Monkey,gibbon,spin,woop,reaction.gif"

It’s worked somewhat well so far if I try to keep it as simple and obvious as possible.

Pointing soyjack squad, deploy! Lol

"OOPS!

Looks like you want a real go-getter who takes initiative in a fast paced working environment!

These added value premium features and advanced pro-company behaviors require a salary boost! Increase my salary for instant access."

(Tier 1)$ "Practically Already Quiet Quitting " Basic Value Employee

• Loves to discuss unions.

(Tier 2) $$$ “Really Need This Job” Moderately effective employee (Most Popular!)

• Shows up, does the work.

(Tier 3)$$$$$ “Happy To Be Here!”

• Ludicrously overpaid but…
• …Saves on hiring a replacement in 6 months.
• “Going places.” Maybe not to your competition!
• “Less likely to curse your name and air your dirty laundry under the cover of various pseudonyms in online discussions and AMAs!”

I felt the same way but also the shock value of the PSA might just save someone too. It’s definitely a gray area this time around, I think.

I’m glad it’s just the xray at least.

Ah I see what you’re saying.

Thanks for taking the time for the clarification! I’m sure this would clear it up for some other folks as well.

I also know they’re a fraction of the size of those giants who can probably field staff specifically for FOSS contribution, but that’s still a bit disheartening. I hope things improve.

Every time they’ve seemed like a good option I find myself balking at the price though lol.

Yeah, there’s billions, maybe trillions or beyond, of dollars’ worth of investment put into making sure everyone "Really needs this job." which can be ripped away from them in an instant, so they won’t be inclined to risk any “insubordination.”

I don’t blame you. I’m even tempted to get a Quest-something unit secondhand or something, if only because I’m pretty sure they’ve cracked it a bit better on the Linux side.

They’re making some progress on WMR’s controllers right now but they’re the most troublesome. Hand tracking works now! But a lot of games expect button input.

Seriously, we just need a good code leak or something so that hobbyist VR peripherals become more commonplace. Right now everything is focused on establishing lock-in to walled gardens instead of interoperability.

VR hardware should be just like getting a monitor / keyboard / mouse / flight stick / whatever, but they want to make it closer to a smart TV / phone so they can push you to throw it out and buy a new one every 6 months.

Often, when it grows past that, it can become… unsavory.

Exactly! Like the Internet, Linux is for anybody! . . .but not necessarily everybody.

Because I mainly game in VR and that’s still so far behind on LInux :(

This is a major sticking point for me too. I’ve got a dusty Win10 partition I haven’t booted in ages, and I was keeping it around mainly for VR, but then Microsoft had to go and just extinguish that too.

Monado is making impressive progress but it’s a huge pain because they have to reverse engineer stuff with zero help from the manufacturers, instead of simply interfacing with the hardware.

I refuse to let Meta have any of my money though. I hope a good affordable VR kit comes out that isn’t another hyper-proprietary blackbox.

Mine was studying global information stuff in school. Mainly used a software called “ArcGIS.”

I called it “Arc-jiss.” Which she laugh-hated because it sounds like “Arc-jizz.” XD

Oh that’s a lovely game! We really enjoyed that one too! The voice acting was sublime and the characters were so loveable. It was so endearingly quirky without going way over the top.

Exciting to hear that there’s a sequel coming!!

Alongside that, this ““backdoor”” (diagnostic/troubleshooting tool) requires physical access

Can’t have an “evil maid” if I do my own cleaning around here.

the likes of system76 have already made their allegiances clear.

Aw crap. What did they do? :(

Been somewhat out of the loop lately.

And the more it thinks, the more it stinks.

“They have taken us for absolute fools.”
