Am not!
Fucking chore simulator. My roommates couldn't be assed to do their actual chores, but every morning during covid they'd get up and make sure their fucking farms had whatever the shit they needed.
It's called a B Corp in the US. A public benefit company. It's for profit, but with a mission. Doctor Bronner's and Newman's Own are the two that come to mind.
Originally, I was too poor to afford software. Then my CD/dvd books were stolen and I couldn't afford to replace the media I'd been collecting my entire life. I bought an external drive, an s-video to RF modulator, a Bluetooth keyboard and connected my computer to channel 3.
Eventually Pandora and Netflix were released and I stopped pirating. I spent most of a decade buying all of my media. Then I tried to buy a complete set of Good Eats and it wasn't possible.
There was literally no way to purchase every episode legally. So I took the $500 I was going to spend on that box set and put it towards an ebay'd server and some drives.
By the time the streaming wars started to gain steam, I had everything automated, and was pushing 50TB of storage.
I spent years getting great with powershell so I can now confidently copy code out of chatgpt. Chatgpt's ability to spit out close to correct code faster than I can type it is amazing, but useless if you don't understand what the hell it's trying to do.
It hadn't ever occurred to me to look for pirated patterns :D Here are some sites with a ton of free patterns.

Z-Library also has a ton of stuff.
Ahh yes, the old "I can't get an erection unless I make my serfs' life miserable" policy adjustment.
Man, I didn't realize there were only 22 people supporting you monthly.
That's what angers me about these articles. Millennials graduated high school to the Dot Com burst. We took out a bunch of student loans after not being able to find any work, graduated to the great recession. Spent a decade trying to pay down our student loans to 0 effect. Then got hit with the pandemic. We've given up on there being a future. Why the fuck should I put money in a 401k to prop up billionaires' fortunes? My wages are never going to be enough to retire. I might as well have some fun now while my body isn't completely broken.
Yeah, complete shame there wasn't a second season.
It really is reddit :D

As a Windows engineer, the number of times I've seen other "engineers" open a case with Microsoft is insane. It seems to be a lot of their first reactions. No logs, no trying anything, just "this broke, why no work". I think it's that the Linux guys are mostly self taught, and the windows guys aren't.
