traffic is absolutely ridiculous out there too, it’s as if the entire eastside collectively forgot how - like more so than normal

me trying to be photogenic at gas works park, seattle

should i be doing something productive today? probably, but it’s hard to stay inside on days like today

hey now, we had that on the atari as well, broderbund was good about keeping games ported - we had choplifter and lode runner too :)

in case you missed it (i did, was elbows deep in taxes) - Horizon 2503 dropped yesterday, and this is a big one due to not only the rebranding that occurred in 2412, but this time around ADLDS gets attention as well: docs.omnissa.com/bundle/horiz...

opened goody box

omnissa goodies - a backpack, hat, sticker, notebook, socks, a tshirt and handy usbc port converter pack... also in background, functioning atari disk drives, a joystick, old imac and lava lamp that were not in the box

who likes swag? i do! nice little box to get yesterday afternoon thanks to the @omnissacommunity.bsky.social - proud to be a tech insider!

boo. broadcom finally took all the old horizon clients offline with their whole next-to-final nail in the vmware coffin(final nail will be when vmware.com finally just redirects to a generic “virtualization” subdirectory under their domain like symantec.com does) rip

oh they keep telling me from their +44 phone that i can pay online on a handy ezpass website, which i'm sure because there's additional domain info after the .com makes it totally more legit right?

those are the things you stack under your monitor, right?

Zero-Client people on Horizon, heads up - you need to be planning your hardware refreshes now: www.omnissa.com/insights/hor...

this was announced pre-spinoff, but there's a definitive timeline for it now - and this will be an issue if you share pools with BYOD #horizon #pcoip #omnissa

The next chapter: Moving from Skype to Microsoft Teams   | Microsoft 365 Blog We will be retiring Skype in May 2025 to focus on Microsoft Teams (free), our modern communications and collaboration hub.  Learn more.

RIP Skype .. haven't used it for years, but once upon a time it was a great way to keep in touch with friends/fam around the globe.. www.microsoft.com/en-us/micros...

it seems to be a universal truth that how friendly your ride up the ski lift is directly correlates to how much time your seatmates have spent on a mountain in their lives... more skiing, more friendly.

kids now miss out on the anticipation and joy (or despair) of having to watch the local news to find out whether or not their district or college is closed/delayed for snow. rolling over to read a text just isn't the same.

they also miss star blazers, how do they know how many days earth has left?

happy international lego day everyone!
