Bwahahah, yes it do be like that. 40k is 100% over the top and it also takes itself 100% seriously. Imagine if Michael Bay and Tommy Wiseau made a universe together

War with a footballer hooligan Cockney accent

In case its not clear from “football hooligans with cockney accents,” WAGH (also spelled WAH) is just the sound or an ork screaming WAR!

Didn’t even notice the word the first time around, and before I read your replying assumed it was a portmanteau of medication and predicament. French could work. Dunno why the loan word though.

Is it weird that I used to think the reverse? Alfie was Lily’s brother, and a nepo baby. I be damned if he didn’t earn it though. Also, my first thought was the woman who played “Asha” was not Lily Allen.

Goodwill exists to make rich people richer. The disabled people they “exist to give jobs too” are super exploited.

Nova launcher is a data harvester. You should be aware.

Can you post a pic of someone with black eyes? That sounds wild, and I’m curious what its like in your world where half of people just have pupils and no iris.

Its gonna be heavily dependent on location. Green eyes in Ireland… Way more common than say in Thailand

This is why people be like “real advice is in the comments”

I dont disagree, but nothing about what you have said invalidates what I had stated. Set it and forget it is the point. Give it to your grandkids.

Ordinary claims!

That sounds like pride and pride sounds like sin!

That’s not been my experience.

Granted, printers suuuuuck. But I was legit surprised when both the printing and scanning functions in Linux were hands down better than windows.

Ollama?

That’d work, but Sagan opted for portable fax.

Or, and hear me out, you could say “portable fax” and be done with it. YOU are making it complicated by not being culturally acclimated to the timeframe when it was written. Everyone knew what faxes were, no explanation was necessary.

Portable fax: thing that sends and receives messages

Portable Fax IS how you describe SMS in the 80s.

I dont mean that your understanding is unimportant, but that you inherently understand what’s being described to a degree that to hear it described differently than you expect you reject what you hear in favor of assuming the folks in the 80s needed more than “portable fax” to understand what you are on about.

How would you describe SMS to people in the 80s?

Tell me you didn’t read the post without telling me you didn’t read the post.

Requirement 3) My job really doesn’t require much more than Office and a browser, but it requires very heavy use of those things. Firefox is fine for the browser, so no trouble there, but I need full fledged Outlook, OneNote and most of the features of Excel at a minimum. […] I will not be able to live with only the browser versions, that I’m 100% sure of.
