Hmmm. Putting the Devil in Deviltodd I see.

As if you're not capable of being a giant handsome menace yourself.........But thank you!

Hot damn dude. This is so exquisitely done. The sense of scale is highly impressive.

Yes and no, i would probably be best to run the corp image as a VM for Email/Teams/Sharepoint/other tools that require SSO and then do all my engineering work in Linux

We technically can run non-corporate images with managerial approval for engineers(which I am)

Just wondering if it's worth the headache because while the system will boot Ubuntu no problem(factory supported), any troubleshooting will need to be done by me, no support without corp image

It's otherwise a VERY nice laptop. 16 cores, 64gb ram, dedicated GPU, OLED touchscreen. I just......wanna wipe it and put Ubuntu on it

we are not using Recall(thank god) or many other copilot features.

The only AI use is an internal chatbot to query our internal document repository(works pretty well actually for finding specific knowledge) and email / teams meeting transcription/summary

Got informed on Friday that it was time to refresh my corporate laptop. I received the shipping manifest today and it's a Copilot+ Laptop. I am not loving this as a concept. How i'm currently feeling.

The latest Samsung One UI 7.0 threw a few games back onto my phone that I KNOW I removed from the original day i bought the damn thing. But thankfully, you can just smack uninstall and they're gone. As you said, mobile carriers used to saddle you permanently with so much crap.

I have too many paid software that simply don't have a linux version or alternative that does what i need.

Few mitigations i've used

First: Windows pro license gives you far more control over updates and features installed as well as when updates happen

Second: Turn off Microsoft driver updates

Absolutely unbelievably good work. Thank you for making this

Thank you ^_^

My friend @fortunethebun.bsky.social showed me this amazing piece of them from @bluhcat.bsky.social www.furaffinity.net/view/60789942

It had a certain kind of energy so i was compelled to make a video edit of it. I hope you all enjoy #isthisajojoreference

Surely a total coincidence. Surely that didn't rub off on other people you know, at all

Just me and Cougr's muse Nikkii having a little fun. Courtesy of the absolutely lovely Gigatiger. Go check him out on Furaffinity if you like great art of very big folk. #sizesky #giantcouple

Long time no see! Hope you're good!

Haha, just means my bunny buddy needs to get bigger to share in it!

Same to you man, it's been a long time!

As someone with formal education in video editing and post-production VFX, I can't recommend Davinci Resolve enough to replace Adobe Premier/After Effects. Even the free version gives them a run for their money. I HAPPILY paid for a lifetime license of Resolve and it's amazingly good

YOUUUUUUUU :D Heya greycat Ken absolute plucked this one straight from my brain. Great to see you

Just making my first (big) steps into this social space! Art courtesy of the outrageously talented kencougr.bsky.social Thank you again for this one Ken #sizesky

Are your toys getting smaller? Or are you getting bigger? Hmm

Have another edit I did of you. :)

I was inspired by this post, I hope you like this quick and dirty edit of it! Let me know if you'd like to collaborate!
