When returning your work laptop, don't forget to leave IT a little stroopwafel... as a treat!

@catsalad@infosec.exchange this is why they need to bring back disk drives in laptops, you either put a dvd with analog horror burned to it if you're feeling evil, or you leave a cookie or stroopwafel if you're feeling nice

@catsalad Imagine if someone actually did something like that. Or worse. They return a laptop and you open it and it's all sticky inside with syrup or something.

@catsalad@infosec.exchange my work laptop only has usbc ports.
not enough space for a stroopwaffel

[baralheia@dragonchat.org]

@krishean @catsalad I never liked the laptop cup holders, they were so flimsy and spilled my drink way too often. I wish they made 'em as sturdy as the desktop computer cup holders!

@catsalad I have absolutely 100% used a laptop vent to warm up a stroopwafel before

[rozeboosje@masto.ai]

@catsalad hmmmmm lekker. Een stroopwafel.

[radome@hachyderm.io]

@catsalad I bet VLC can play it.

@catsalad in THIS climate??

[leeloo@c.im]

@0xabad1dea @catsalad
Oh yeah? Well I have used a laptop vent to heat up / melt a chocolate bar.

... Not on purpose, though.

@catsalad

"Why did you overclock your Core I9 so much?"

or,

"Look ma! This thrift store laptop comes with a waffle maker!"

[llanciawn@mastodon.social]

@catsalad Laptops don't tend to have disk drives any more.

[dysfun@social.treehouse.systems]

@catsalad when did you last get a laptop with a cd drive? have they got you on a decade old machine?

[catsalad@infosec.exchange]

@kura only very, very tiny stroopwafel

[tthbaltazar@chaos.social]

@dysfun @catsalad
the laptop I got in 2018 had an optical drive they are not that old

[dysfun@social.treehouse.systems]

@tthbaltazar @catsalad lying around the flat, most the laptops from last decade do not have cd rom drives.

[follpvosten@karp.lol]

@tthbaltazar @dysfun @catsalad that’s consumer devices. business laptops have gotten rid of this stuff way earlier, mostly since they also got smaller earlier and getting rid of the optical drive was a good way to do that

[tthbaltazar@chaos.social]

@dysfun @catsalad
weh?!?

but that laptop was bought brand new

[follpvosten@karp.lol]

@tthbaltazar @dysfun @catsalad also 2018 was 8 years ago

[dysfun@social.treehouse.systems]

@tthbaltazar @catsalad yeah and we have two macbooks here from the second half of that decade without cdrom drives.
