The rules for how they’re supposed to work sound simple enough on paper. Unfortunately a lot of us in the US have poor reading comprehension skills.

I know there’s a Citrix Workspace app for Linux, but this particular company’s environment won’t work in it for whatever reason. I tried making it work - got all the way through authenticating my credentials and then would throw an error (I forget what) as soon as it tried loading the dashboard.

And this is just a part time gig I’m doing for supplemental income, so it’s not a huge concern for me. Not really an important enough employee for them to spend time making a custom image for, particularly when they said up front I’d need Mac or Windows to use the Citrix environment, so I knew going in I’d probably need a VM if I couldn’t get their stuff working in Linux.

I think it may have something to do with the workspace protection they require for guarding against screenshots.

This was my solution. If I need windows for anything, I’ve got a Win10 VM. And with QEMU/KVM, it gets near native hardware performance. Thankfully the only thing I need it for currently is checking my work email once a day for a part time thing I do - their particular setup for the Citrix Workspace environment I’m required to use won’t work on Linux.

How to properly go through a four-way stop.

NOT THAT ONE!

the big, bold, inclusive failed experiment

The church I was forced to go to as a child did a whole youth group and parents trip to the movies to see it. Thought it was pretty interesting the stuff I wasn’t allowed to watch, but that torture porn feature was a-OK for the kiddies.

I work from home using a work provided laptop. One day my partner at the time was working on setting up a Kali machine, and every time they connected to the network my work laptop would cease all network communication. Guess whatever security software/settings my work laptop had was made very nervous by a Kali machine on the same network.

When I find myself feeling particularly queer, I just watch Turkish oil wrestling to man myself back up again.

Interesting way of saying, “I’m a self-centered fuck.”

Absolutely! I’m definitely in that camp that thinks the book is (almost) always better than the show/movie - totally agreed there. I try to judge them separately when I can though since there’s a lot on stuff in text that just doesn’t translate well to the screen.

Another great show he’s in is Good Omens. Highly recommend if you haven’t watched it.

He was in Goblet of Fire. Showed up briefly at the beginning and end of the movie, certainly easy to miss. More of a cameo appearance for David Tennant fans.

That and Egyptian pyramids were tombs, whereas pyramids in Central and South America were mostly temples for worship.

I’m definitely thankful to have symmetrical gigabit for $70/month. 2/5/8 Gb service is also available. Dunno what I’d do with that bandwidth, but I’d love to find out.

Don’t lie to me. I know a Palantír when I see one.

If you enjoy the topic, my favorite astrophysicist, Dr. Becky, covered this discovery in her latest video!

Tells me all I need to know. Thanks.

Did you actually watch the video, or dismiss it out of hand based solely on the thumbnail?

Was about to ask what one does with dual Titan Xs, but the obvious answer is whatever the hell one wants.
