    Good. You can spend Thanksgiving “fighting the good fight” while the rest of us try to survive and have a day not filled with doom and gloom.

    Put yourself on a news diet, take all this energy and put it into doing good locally when and where you can, and leave it away from conversations with the family during Thanksgiving.

    Or you can fucking host and set whatever rules you want.






  • But the assumption with PC games usually would be xbox controller. Switch controllers don’t have native USB support, so any PC usage is using the xbox controller protocol. So A is on the bottom, unless the game dev found some special way to check and detect for a swich controller specifically. The overwhelming majority don’t.

    Same thing with playstation controllers, although slightly more devs have found ways to check for them specifically.





  • Nope, you use Reddit entirely at their whim. All appeals are handled by the same automated system that likely banned you in the first place, and trying to make a new account will get you banned again for ban evasion.

    There are various ways to hide and get around the ban evasion checks, but if you ever slip up, or they ever catch you again, go straight to banned again with no appeal.

    Your alternative is to move to other reddit alternatives like here. The more these alternatives can be built up, the less excuses there are to still rely on Reddit, until Reddit finally crumbles away.






  • It’s especially fun in corporate IT.

    “What do you mean user: [me] already has it open? I’ve never been in this folder in life, and I just rebooted!”

    Or when it says it’s open by a former employee with a disabled account.

    If it’s on a network share, you also can’t rely on the normal tricks with process monitor and the like to look for locks locally.

    It’s one thing I’ll praise about using office documents with OneDrive and (Azure based) Sharepoint in a well configured corporate setting: Microsoft finally caught up to Google Doc’s collaboration functionality, and it handles “merge conflicts” fairly well for other file types (add the machine name as a suffix to the file name, keep both copies, and give a big warning message).
