  • Probably USA.

    Never seen a chair in an assembly line section except for an occasional desk.

    Actually tbh I think the chair aspect is the least concerning. Chair vs standing is usually based on the task required, where chair is only provided as a necessity like work that requires higher precision or a certain type of dexterity.

    Would probably see chairs for something like component soldering or sewing.

    Otherwise they could easily fashion all those workers with a cheap plastic chair in the picture since they clearly spent the money on proper attire and health standards.

    Looks like seafood processing, which I’ve never seen a chef or cook do sitting lol. Have seen squatting but I don’t think that counts.

    My old windows install was so cooked thst I had successfully made an illegal CON file (cygwin?) on NTFS, which Windows would refuse to delete because it should be impossible to make such a file.

    After a completely fresh install, the settings app refused to launch after a day and of course sfc/dism did jack all.

    Said “screw it” and dual booted Fedora because my previous experience with Ubuntu sucked snd I saw that video of Linus saying he never used Debian or Ubuntu because it didn’t used to be user friendly to install. Searched up his preferred distro and it was Fedora.

    Kept Windows around for a couple of months for one game until one day windows overwrote grub after an update.

    Nuked it again and installed only Fedora. Found out the game now had solid support in proton so I literally did not miss anything from Windows.







  • It’s because they sell all of their products as a vendor package with advertised SLAs and “discounts”.

    If your company needs cloud stuff and you happen to want Azure, you’re basically getting locked into Teams.

    Unlike specialty software like Adobe, pretty much everything Microsoft offers has feature parity or superior alternatives, it just relies on the fact that businesses aren’t stuck on any one of their products.

    There are actually a handful of companies that only use MacOS or Linux, but it requires both your IT team and management to be competent enough to throw MSFT away, which is much harder to do in a legacy settings when your entire domain infara is a 20+ year old AD domain.


  • I already said it a month ago, but I’m pretty sure the main contention over the agreement has been getting Israel to play along.

    Trump can’t actually say that he’s on Netanyahu’s leash because that would mean his supposed authority is non-existent. Iran also knows that Israel will never agree to anything, so they naturally opted to skip straight to negotiating directly with the US and having them “pull the leash” on Israel.

    Regardless if it goes through or not, it ends in a fight between whether the US owns Israel or Israel owns the US.


  • Not tryna dox myself but I was able to get a ticket to the Argentina vs Iceland warm up match held 2 days ago in Auburn because Auburn University sold the tickets directly for $78, and they still didn’t sell out the stadium, so you could buy tickets for as low as $40 from resellers.

    And they played Messi too so its not like it was some B squad match, they all actually showed up.

    If Auburn couldn’t sell out the stadium for such a game, there’s no way FIFA is filling any of the world cup matches except for maybe semis and finals.
