You are correct, I’m on ESR apparently.

Looks like that’s coming in Firefox 117 (we’re at 115 currently).

No need. Homo sapiens is near the end anyway. Doesn’t matter how it ends, if we get replaced by AIs, the next "Homo geneticmodified"or get wiped out. Kind of awesome to know, right? After 250,000 years, we’re among one of the last Homo sapiens. Peak Homo sapiens.

You know what that means, “Homo sapiens”? It means “wise man”.

We’re going to get completely ridiculed for doing that in the future. Who the fuck even calls themselves “wise man”. So lame.

I still have to log in via fucking RDP to set it up.

Nah you don’t. I’ve made plenty of headless installations for windows. You think everyone with a datacenter with hundreds of windows servers logs in to each of them with RDP? You can do it with an unattended.xml file. Which is harder to do than what I had to do to make a headless raspberry pi ubuntu server. By a lot, although if you look long enough, you might be able to copy someone else’s unattended.xml.

Also, Windows Event Viewer still blows

Yeah, it’s… an acquired taste. You can actually script it. But it is harder than string manipulation, since the events are all objects, not strings.

Then why has every Windows admin I’ve ever had to deal with use the GUI?

Cause I’m lazy.

This is more about your windows knowledge than windows. All the stuff you’re mentioning can easily be done remotely with powershell remoting.

Also, I often just SSH to windows servers. Works fine, has been like that for years now.

That’s probably 150 aborted campaigns totaling 900 hours and two completed 25 hour each campaigns. Source: I’m at around 1500 hours, maybe 2000. A lot of it predates steam, so I don’t know exactly.

I’ve only completed one campaign ever. At some point you know you’ve won and you’re just steamrolling. So why bother.

I love how the many users are quick to call mods power hungry.

@Hovenko wrote that really carefully. If you interpret it literally, it basically says “some moderators are addicted to power.”

Which is true. You are also right, most aren’t. But some are.
