*stares at URL*

I think I’m starting to recognize that link
- I see you're no stranger to love
  
  Obviously, you know the rules and so do I
- In germany we don't open this link, we say "XcQ der Link bleibt zu." and i think it's beautiful.
  
  XcQ the link stays blue
- It’s a recent thing for me. I think XQC (think that’s a streamer) and the end of this link is XcQ with an upper case W just before. I don’t think I’ll never not notice now.
  
  I always heard "if it's XcQ, the link stays blue"
- gXcQ?
  
  Not for you.

You can take a screenshot by pressing "WIN - SHIFT - S" :)
- Gotta watch an ad before it'll work. And another one to post it.
- We work as software engineers and my colleague works on a particular application for one of our clients and I shit you not the following happens regularly.
  
  Colleague emails client with a change log for the latest publish.
  
  Client prints off the email and annotates it with a pen.
  
  Takes a photo of the printed out email.
  
  Attaches it to his reply.
  
  They have this work flow and they still don't have a scanner‽
  
  This is probably preferable to when something is written with a "pen" tool and a mouse, so you have mspaint style handwriting.
- You can also press “Print Screen”
  
  but i don’t want to print my screen, i just want a picture of it.
  
  In KDE I hotkeyed Super+PrtSc to run flameshot gui, so I can instantly get very good custom screen shots that I can annotate or whatever if I want. Then Alt+Super+PrtSc takes a screenshot of both displays and saves it to a custom folder
- Or Win + PrntScrn to make an auto saved file.
- I used all my free screenshots for the month, I don't have Windows+
Don’t you fucking put that anywhere Microsoft might see. They’ll do it.
Microsoft be like
And now it's time to secure erase your SSD before it sees the light of day
Windows
npm
Ad

That calls for a month of vacation with edibles and pizza with weed for the munchies. Everything so I don't remember.
I think mplayer has an ASCII output mode (VLC, too?), and I believe youtube-dl can output to stdout.

The rest is, as they say, left as an exercise to the reader.
- That's a strange way to get rickrolled
people who take camera pictures of their screen instead of doing a proper screenshot should not call themselves developers
- I prefer copying the text on the terminal and pasting it, due to most platforms using jpeg compression on png uploads, making written text worse.
First I have to drink a verification can, and now this??!!
- Don't forget to stand up and say MCDONALD'S.
No dev would take a picture of the screen instead of making a screenshot
- But what if something pulls a Netflix and blacks out the window when you try to screenshot. The sanctity of the screenshot is ruined, take more pictures.
I know that URL.
. . . so, anyway, that's how I became radicalized.
XcQ
- Exactly
Never gonna try that up.
My colleagues have fancy terminal applications with fancy backgrounds, so I thought the reflection was a cool frosted glass transparency effect, at first.

And with the amount of memes being sent across throughout the day, I reckon if it were silly videos, they would eat that up.

Also : watch a video while that command runs? "Fuck yeah", they'd say!
I know XcQ when I see it.
When I said that Microsoft has a lot to learn from Linux, Ubuntu Server is not what I had in mind 😂
If you are opening a text shell on windows you deserve it. Wsl should just send you to a gulag instead.
Aww, I read that as a brilliant:
"Write a short ad...",
...instead of:
"Watch a short ad".

Original wasn't exactly about working for corporate, but rather about consuming their poison, wasn't it?
