    Just installed the shit, started clicking through the quick setup, googled the 3 or 4 things that didn't work right, and here we are.

    I am finally free of using a Mac as my personal machine at work. Only took 4 years, but I did it. Brand new top end Surface Pro 4 acquired. This thing is actually really, really nice. And the tablet/drawing might be as good as my home dedicated tablet.

    user: can you install Microsoft Streets and Trips on my new computer?

    *last version from 2012, all support ended 2015*

    me: no

    life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
    fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
    that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
    bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

    I realized I can use my 28" monitor again. My bootcamp install was so fucked that unplugging the HDMI or thunderbolts would basically disable those ports until I rebooted, so I just stopped ever using anything but USB, but never had time/energy to wipe the computer completely.

    But, I cleared off and re-arranged my desk (fuck having my back to the open door). And oh man I forgot how amazing this thing was.

    Now I need a good mechanical keyboard that isn't going to be super loud. Anyone ever used the CODE keyboards? Or use anything with Cherry clear's in general?

    As he is insisting I find some ancient copy to install, despite me telling him the map data is out of date

    I guess, yes, he does want to get lost.

    If sound didn't carry like mad here. Pretty sure if I got some Blues everyone on the floor would hear them. Gotta be respectful, especially since I live with headphones on as it is.

    Unfortunately we need to use PC Miler for specialized routes. It costs so much.

    You shouldn't get reds for typing. Check the Mechanical Keyboard thread for more info.

    Interesting. Everyone and their sister says that they're horrible for it.

    Everyone and their sister also say that you should try stuff out before buying, though. Probably a big YMMV.

    everything is ymmv. I hate reds, Browns for life, but I don't think of people who like reds as second class citizens or anything.






    Those are the people who like Blues.

    Go to Adapter Hut. They can help you plug a pair of headphones into a 220 line if you need to.

    Most workplaces don't allow weapons nowadays, so that Model M isn't an option.

    Cog, with the Model M, in the Library.

    You misinterpreted me.
