@ntoskrnl I must wonder if the complexity and the obfuscation of the world of finance is intentional, to limit the audience who knows how to successfully navigate it.
@david_chisnall I wonder how many software suites out there (especially those used in corporate environments) have made themselves run on Windows exclusively because they know Windows is the default OS for much of the corporate world.
It becomes a catch-22: developers make applications for Windows because that's what the majority of users use, and Windows maintains its position as the majority OS because of the extensive spread of software support.
@goaty Are you referring to 16-bit Windows games? Can Wine/Proton handle that? As of now, I have to play 16-bit Windows games through DosBox running a modified copy of Windows for Workgroups 3.11.
@Ajna A fluffy girl for a customer named "IterativeFluff"...how apropos. 
@sodiboo Are you sure this message was even written by a human? It honestly feels like it's either a form letter, or AI-agent, thinly-veiled threat to open up your brand/website to AI agents.
@foxis One alternate (lower cost) option is to use digital photo prints as common badge backgrounds (which you can order in bulk), and then have a much cheaper thermal label printer print a person's badge name/number that you stick on the photo background. I saw that approach used at ACFI in 2019.

@0x2ba22e11 @kirakira I'm pretty sure that's what spam-bot accounts do (at least on Twitch): they take three or more random dictionary words and add a few random letters or numbers at the end.
@foxis I'm on staff at StratosFur and we have AlphaCard badge printers that we bought before our first year and continue to use to this day. They do have a high up-front cost, however, and the printer ribbons are fairly costly as well if you go with full-color YMCKO type.
@vantablack It's a topic I've struggled with in recent years. To what extent is it appropriate to engage/embrace this part of me? To what extent is it appropriate to share with others?
There is a difference between keeping something private, and keeping it repressed because of stigma. That boundary line looks different for different people, but are there general guidelines and what degree of enforcement (personal or societal) should those guidelines have?
