AI is bad, mkay?

There’s so little wrong with debian that 80% of distros ARE Debian.

Epic Games as in Tim Sweeney’s Epic Games?

What are the package names so I can block them from installing please

Anyone stupid enough to still be using Windows (inb4 BUT MUH OFFICE REQUI- fuck your office.) deserves it.

That’s pretty neat. Might be a good time to pick one up before the world figures out it’s working as well as it is.

I really like PBS and what they’ve done for the world throughout my life but whoever is in charge of their archives should be drawn, quartered, razed to ash and then asked politely to leave for having absolutely no in house storage.

I think PBS could probably handle the cost of one slightly above average old desktop PC (15 years old is FIINE) and 6 20TB hard drives FFS.

Weird. Just turned 47 and I JUST tried Debian tonight.

So far it’s very good.

In other breaking news, air is breathable. (usually)

Arch or Debian?
answers question with question
Speed or reliability?

Seriously, Don’t Buy a Windows 11 PC With 8GB of RAM

Fixed that for them

Irony of my comments were lost on them, lol

I bet someone from /linuxsucks (banned me, yay) genuinely believes every word

Coming for that ass

It’s more complicated than that. I’ll spare you, but I recommend the forks of Firefox like Librewolf, Floorp, etc.

I’d been a Vivaldi user for a while too but the latest version killed Ublock Origin, so sad to say the browser is now dead to me.

Sending money to a clown and NOT expecting a fucking circus, are we?

In my experience, updates that break boot are up 250% since 7, and their “roll back” for “Feature” and “quality” upgrades fails 85% of the time, “Sorry we weren’t able to uninstall…”

Not to mention that they’ve disabled the default registry backup since 10. Go ahead- check the “regback” folder. There’s nothing in it. Don’t even get me started on auto-bitlockering.

Odd how we have such different experiences the last 10 years.

If a “lite” version removed their ability to spy on you they’d have to charge you $4,000/year for the privilege, just to make up the difference.

15-20 years ago I’d regularly find Windows 7 PCs that had stuffed boot drives using the \Windows\Temp folder with corrupt or “could not install, retried” updates. They’ve improved nothing in all that time. The only thing they’ve “improved” is the UI, which is at best debatable. I think most people would now be absolutely thrilled to go back to 7’s user interface today.

Using Windows at this point is a sign of someone too lazy to try something new, glued to a game run by assholes that won’t check a box on their end to allow their anti-cheat to function elsewhere, or completely comfortable in the Windows ecosystem prison system.
