You are absolutely right!

That said, did they fix the issue where explorer (with the desktop) would just randomly crash for no reason? I’ve worked in IT for 3 months and it was a frequent issue.

Someone should make a book called “Life. Beginner’s guide” and put stuff like that there.

I’d rather pay for shit and not have ads.

I am grateful that my past me (from few months ago) decided to study Slavic philology, instead of getting stupid tech job. I hate modern tech, including anything from big corporations.

I am also glad that I’ve switched to Linux (Debian ftw) to escape software enshittification.

Joking aside, while this is less functional than Android app, and looking… slightly outdated, it feels much easier to use, which is amusing.

Palestine and its people is about to be removed from existence, so OK I guess?

Is Microsoft not aware what Notepad is actually used for?

The best thing to do is to convert you closest family and friends. If you’re “the computer guy” the chances are you need to support their shitty computers anyway, so you might as well support an OS which is easier to maintain.

Jesus Fucking Christ. Why would anyone who wants to write a simple letter or some other basic stuff in Word (which is what most of home users do) want any of this crap?

That is way more sensible, than the other way around.

No, OS makers should just not make their OS bloated with useless shit, stealing your data and have arbitrary system requirements. I think 15 years of OS updates is excessive unless we’re talking about servers or very specific workflows. IMO 5-10 years is enough.

That said, for some operating systems it doesn’t even make sense to support for THAT long, because how they are designed (A lot of Linux distros for example). It turns out, if you don’t break users’ workflow, they don’t mind to upgrade.

Jokin’ aside, I am thinking to upgrading to forky (14), if it gets newer Nvidia drivers, because of a single issue I have with Wayland on Plasma (that is X applications flickering like crazy). Alternatively upgrading just kernel and nvidia drivers (to testing or sid) if it is possible without breaking whole system.

What horrible pieces of shit.

The thing with age verification is that I don’t think it’s a bad thing if done securely, but still it still makes me sad, because Internet will never be the same with it. In the end it will be only few big websites who can afford to care about Internet regulation.

Well, after all maybe it’s time to switch to Gemini protocol, they are not going to regulate that!

I would make a counterargument and raise the age of being legally an adult to 21, or at least do not allow anyone to drink alcohol and do not allow anyone to drive a car before turning 21. There is a lot of tragedy that could be avoided just by doing that.

Yes, but if it’s too loud in the real world I stop thinking oddly enough, and in many cases I am not able to speak clearly. That might be an autistic trait though.

I do in monotonous “voice”, yeah. Unless I know what voice somebody could have, then I use that voice instead. Usually happens when character that appears in the book also is portrayed by some actor in a movie or a video game.

I just think in concepts/abstractions, I don’t know how to explain it, lol.

I definitely don’t think in pictures, like other person said. My mind can’t create pictures out of thin air. That might be more like artists think I guess.
