No, but that would run better. I think it was a shitty old Dell they "upgraded" to Windows 10 because it almost met the minimum requirements.

Do they not know what minimum means?

If they have to do tech support then "right you're all getting the same OS even if it's not the best for some of the machines" makes sense as an attitude. Put Windows 10 on everything that will take it, get rid of all other machines and set up group policies appropriately. That's attractive to your IT department. The case where this one guy has this other OS because he has this weird bit of hardware is the worst case scenario for them.

As you can see, the bar at the top is way too wide, and the text is screwy, though this image doesn't properly show just how screwy some of the text is.
Here's a better image of screwy text.

Try hitting ctrl+0. That looks like some kind of scaling issue, and resetting the zoom might fix it.

Not sure what you can do to fix the person's face however. There isn't a button for that.

Heh, in the Netherlands you cannot buy steam games anymore without giving your full name and home adress (or billing adress).
Before, just your email adress was fine.
It states that is because my home country demands that.
Guess there's a new law in place since 2020 or something.

So I went back to my old job site, and I realized that I miss them.  I left feeling so happy to see them all and be there.  Crap.  Now I think Ill have to see if they'll even want me.  I mean they do, or say they do, but they might not have a slot for me to fill.  Or offer me comparable or better pay....

Microwave oven died. I turn it on and all hear is a clicking sound for a few seconds. Granted, it was fairly beat up, so it's surprising it lasted this long. On the other hand, my stepdad, due to his paranoia about the coronavirus, seems to think that getting a replacement microwave is a fairly immediate priority and wants to get one before the virus gets any closer to home.
