Alright, buckle up, test subjects! This is Cave Johnson, the man who’s not afraid to tackle the tough topics, like Pride Month and… Mantis Men. That’s right, you heard me correctly.

Here at Aperture Science, we’re all about inclusivity, whether you’re human, robot, or even a Mantis Man. So, in addition to celebrating Pride Month for our LGBTQ+ community, we’re also extending a warm, robotic arm to our Mantis Men friends out there.

To all our Mantis Men employees and test subjects, I want you to know that Aperture Science sees you, we appreciate you, and we’re here for you. Whether you’re scuttling through test chambers or just trying to find a quiet spot to molt, we support you in all your mantis-y glory.

So, let’s raise a toast to diversity, to acceptance, and to the Mantis Men among us. Because here at Aperture Science, we believe that love knows no bounds, not even when it comes to interdimensional insectoid beings. Now, get your lazy butts back to science! because who knows what kind of groundbreaking discoveries we’ll make next, whether it involves portals, shower curtains or potato batteries! I’m not paying you for Mantis Men dance parties!

This is Cave Johnson, we’re done here

shit like this makes me annoyed I joined an instance without down voting

I felt like the second season was an improvement on the first, but this honestly doesn't surprise me.

Yeah but they will come back to hate

I tried it and it bugged out on spiderman, the high motion was too much for it. Parker turned into an artifacting mess

wake me when we can use them as a saml provider

I can't remember if it was 99 or 2000, I got a copy of Red Hat 6.0 (Hedwig) on the cover of a magazine and installed it. I remember the Lilo boot manager giving me trouble and then it was multiple days of dialing up the internet on my dad's PC to find info on getting X11 to run correctly on my graphics hardware. Once I got that going it was my win modem that defeated me in the end, couldn't get any internet. So was back to Windows for another couple of years.

In 2003 my university course had a Linux Administration subject and the lecturer had built a live cd of Fedora Core 2 (this was in the days before live cds were a regular thing) it was a revelation and it worked with much less setup. We had a Linux lab, but the livecd allowed us to work on Linux on our personal machines. I'd dabble with Linux and explore distros for a few years, depending on hard ware compatibility, I'd always have at least one Linux box. I remember attempting to get HalfLife 2 running in Cedega (a commercial fork of wine), even played the original left4dead with friends, this was in 2008. I was there when pulse audio launched before it was ready and when KDE moved to version 4 and was an absolute resource hog. I bought the unreal and tournament games on disc to play on Linux. Was Disappointed when the UT3 release got delayed and then eventually canceled. I remember going to the id software ftps to get the Linux binaries for all the quakes. There were a few other Linux adventures in there, like a misguided attempt at compiling Gentoo in 2007 and working out mythtv server as a media pc and pvr.

Was excited when I got beta access to steam in 2012, and I haven't had Windows on my personal computers since then.

This is true, because each layered package is reinstalled every time a new compose is pulled. If you layer 100 packages, 100 packages get re-installed. Which massively slows the update process

I copy the URL and paste it into the readme.md in the root of my nextcloud account. I'll find it again in 6 months or more and finally read it

That's so bizare, since I swapped out to unleaded we fuck constantly and not worry about contraception. nothing makes you feel like more of a man than fucking raw dog every chance you get.
