That looks awesome. It would look a little out of place next to my other pinball machines, as they’re vintage. But I’d still love it. I don’t want to have to sell two watches to afford it, though. That’s pretty expensive.

How could I forget K&E. Nice slide rules, too.

I love 0.3. I would love a Rotring one if they made it. My only one is an Alvin Draftmatic.

I’d say the sum of their organs and borrowing power of their credit score.

Right? Children should be minted as on the block chain. They’re basically NFTs.

If I HAVE to use a ballpoint, it’s going to have to be a rollerball. Like the Uniball. But really, I’d take just about any fountain pen over any of them.

Damn straight. Best pencil I’ve ever had. Well, the 0.5mm. I write too small for 0.7.

Pentel used to be my pencil of choice, too. You’d probably want something more like the e-Sharp. The one pictured is really more of a precision work one. Drafting, art. Less for long-form writing.

Wtf is this shit? No Rotring. No Alvin. No Koh-i-Noor. I guess I have to take the GraphGear, but it’s under duress.

I figured something out. Used Sunshine/Moonlight to basically VPN in while it’s in 1920x1080 and changed it to 1280x1024. Now, it remembers that’s the resolution when that’s the only monitor.

This makes me think the idea my coworker and I had to start our own business would be really profitable. We both have experience with mold making. And sex toys are a huge industry. What is an underrepresented category we could make a market for? Fish.

Fuck-A-Fish we would call it. Fleshlite-esque fish to bang. All different kinds. Realistically modeled and painted. And we would have a whole line of products to use with them. Like Love Chum, a textured lubricant.

Well, TempleOS was made by a guy with schizophrenia so it won’t help in that regard.

Well, I’ll give that a try, too then. Thanks for investigating! At least it’s not just me that can’t get it to work.

I still have my copy. I cannot believe that song is like, 18 years old now. It was such a staple of my college experience.

I’ll definitely check out OPL-PC-Tools, thanks! HDL Batch Installer just hangs on open, checking for updates. I have been running Mint since November. I can’t get OPL manager to launch at all. Regular Wine, Proton, nothing. I’ve tried brand new prefixes with fresh .NET runtime, it just refuses to start.

The ONLY thing I still apparently need Windows for is running OPL Manager and HDL Batch Installer for my Playstation 2 hard drives. Can anyone point me in a direction of Linux alternatives? I managed to get WinHiip running in Wine, but it can’t see the PS2 HDD from Wine. Pretty sure I need something that runs native, and for the life of me I cannot find anything. Which is really surprising to me.

I think I’m hopping to TempleOS. It’s going to take more than Windows to save me from this.

The HP-41C is RPN! Top row. That’s a timeless classic!

I want a 15C, but those are more than I usually want to spend.

Yeah, no problem!

I don’t get it either, but the heart wants what it wants!
