Almost any monitor can do that. If the stand won’t rotate, get one with a VESA-compatible mount and you can just rotate the mounting plate, since the bolt pattern is a square.

That’s great, I’d love to have my docs that early! I think I had to wait til nearly the end of February for some of my 1099s this year.

I don’t think I’ve ever gotten my W2 before the end of January

Some providers do digital distribution now. I didn’t get any physical documents from my employer or investment account, just PDFs this year.

I don’t think it’s possible to do taxes in January, most places don’t have documents ready before the end of the month. I had to wait a few extra weeks for the documents from my investment account too, so not everything is always available on Jan 31.

I did mine in February this year. I’ll probably wait and do it later next year, like mid-March, as I ended up missing a document that would have slightly increased my state return (not enough to go through the headache of fixing it).

Last year, I needed an extension, as it was first time doing it myself and my situation was fairly complex.

I think is people don’t like it they don’t need to use it.

Tell that to the people living near new data centers who can’t get clean water and are being charged exorbitant rates for electricity. They have no say in the matter.

My life flashing before my eyes was an expression, but in that moment i truly believed I was going to die.

I did also piss myself, but the typical expression is brown pants, not yellow.

Phone front right, wallet and earbuds front left. My keys go on a retractable carabiner attached to a belt loop but sometimes get tucked into the nearest pocket to reduce jingling.

Not spooky per se, but it scared the shit out of me:

I was 16 or 17 at the time and worked for a DJ pushing road cases and setting up/striking equipment. One winter weekend, upon striking everything after a wedding, I stepped outside around 2am to find myself in the middle of a blizzard. I had borrowed my dad’s F250 with AWD for the evening, so in my infinite wisdom, I decided it would be fine to drive the 20 or so miles home.

There was absolutely nobody on the road, not even plows/salt trucks. Like many teenagers, though, I thought I was invincible, so I drove way faster than was reasonable in those conditions. About halfway back, I’m on an overpass across a major highway and hit a patch of ice. Cue the fishtail, then panic as my life flashed before my eyes. I ended up spinning about 2.25 revolutions, and come to stop perpendicular to the road with a few inches between my front bumper and the outer barrier of the overpass. Too bad I wasn’t wearing brown pants.

I managed to get the rest of the way home without incident, but I have never taken any chances driving in suspect conditions again- I figure I used up all my luck surviving that event.

Does that mean I can’t ask it?

Read the sidebar and rules of the community before you post. Rule 6 clearly states no US politics, so no, you should not have asked it.

Layaway on groceries, doordash, and now on paying your friends. Do we need any more recession indicators?

Read the article.

Raising the recommended RAM requirements is not because the Resolute Raccoon requires more resources than before, not directly – this is not a 2GB RAM jump solely to load the OS and nothing else.

Rather, it’s more of an honesty bump. Components that make up the distro – the GNOME desktop and extensions, modern web browsers (and the sites we load in them) and the kinds of apps we use (and keep running) whilst multitasking are more demanding.

Literally do not use it if you don’t like it, it’s really that simple.

I didn’t see it until you pointed it out. Imo looks unintentional, just an unfortunate result of the circuit traces being arranged as they are.

I will say that LTSC runs way smoother than regular windows, but that’s almost certainly because it’s got a lot of the bullshit stripped out.

Lmao. Are you offering pay my bills and provide health insurance?

Oh god don’t even get me started on our network drives lol. Searching for part drawings can take HOURS

It’s not really a matter of preference. I’m a mechanical engineer, not a developer, and several industry-standard programs are only available for windows. Bugs that come from running in WINE or another emulation layer are unacceptable when they can potentially cause delays in production, scrap parts from a misprint or miscalculation, or lead to a part failure that kills someone.

I actually have a batch script (might be a powershell script?) with this and some other stuff in it for when I’m doing a fresh install on my pc.

My work pc is locked the fuck down though, I can’t even change my wallpaper or the color of the taskbar lol.
