I am actively disassociating while I am avoiding any and all responsibilities at work right now, does that count?

Just make your JIRA tickets increasingly more detailed.

You get to procrastinate but it looks like you’re doing stuff

The big X on the remote computer makes it look like the application doesn't work. Which, to be fair, is a good representation of a typical Citrix session.

Astrally projecting to the other side of the room

Yes after midnight but before I went to bed so in a way not today.

That's just the X protocol, and it doesn't even need to be astral.

Is this AI generated, or is my radar off?

Just did some digging, and it's legit and from a 1994 book called "The Internet Guide for New Users" by Daniel P. Dern.

Mildly interesting side-note, I found someone's blog about posting this image and book to a (now non-existent) fediverse server. https://doughnut.neocities.org/blag/15

Interesting, I guess in 1994 it would make sense to redraw the guy instead of copying the asset over in Illustrator like you would present day.

[–] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Back then it was probably hand drawn. On paper.

[–] potatoguy@potato-guy.space 2 points 3 weeks ago

Unfortunately, yes.

Does using tramp count?

[–] friend_of_satan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Does using uv init count?

[–] Konstant@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I did, and it was glorious.
