MattTheProgrammer@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the worst "corporate speak/buzzwords" that you absolutely hate?1·4 days agoI used to say Go Bills at the end of every meeting to my mostly local Western New York co-workers.
MattTheProgrammer@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•I installed Linux on this 8-inch mini laptop, and it's my new favorite way of computingEnglish17·8 days agoI had one of the original netbooks (Asus EEEPC) back in the mid 2000s and I absolutely loved that thing. It was really great for bopping around college and travelling and such and had a killer battery life of like 8 or 10 hours or something like that. I used to run Win 7 dual booted with Ubuntu
MattTheProgrammer@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What’s a thing you miss that you’re 90% sure was objectively awful?7·12 days agoI miss my first two cars. The first was a 1989 Dodge Daytona which was probably the worst car ever made and it only lasted 6 months before the head gasket blew. The second was a 1995 Ford Escort LX sedan. This was the car that I taught myself how to drive manual transmission on. It was more reliable than the Daytona, but it still had a ton of quirks like shorts in the wiring harness in the steering column --so much so that I learned which pins to short out to hot wire it lol. I miss both of those cars because of the sense of freedom they provided to get away from an emotionally abusive home life.

MattTheProgrammer@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What popular TV show did not do it for you and you quit watching?21·23 days agoThis is going to sound very hipster, but pretty much anything that becomes super popular is too shallow or lowest-common-denominator to pique my interest. There are exceptions, but that’s the general rule I’ve come to realize.
MattTheProgrammer@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you could regulate something relatively inconsequential, what would it be?1·8 months agoBroadcasting audio from a personal device in public should be a misdemeanor.
MattTheProgrammer@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the most petty/pointless/pedantic hill you're willing to die on?1·9 months agoIt’s pronounced “gif,” not “gif.”
