A couple of months ago I bought 148gb and it was fuck all

I’m not sure my pixel has that good of protection against spam

I think it’s just called BO Max these days

More than half of them turn out to be AI

There really has not been a better time than the late 90s to launch a new better search engine and supplant google

I got real self righteous there for a second, but i see they included the wrong pronunciation as well

It’s like smart TVs. I want the dumbest rock of a tv I can find, and I’ll plug in the smarts thank you very much

Unfortunately it was an act of God.

He got nervous when Trump and Melania started to ascend so he cancelled the rapture right there and then.

He wants to protect your kids from getting diddled by foreigners

I watched part of this announcement and he said something I normally don’t pick up on

“If they have started to build or have plans to build they don’t have to pay the tariff.”

Sounds like.jobs.

But what I heard was it was a discount for the oligarchy. Why do you only get a discount if you are in the position to at least pretend to be building a factory?

And then since prices are now double, you get to import and sell at an easy profit.

Chad move.

Be massive monster.

Put up portraits of other despots.

Get killed in prison

Release lists as photo album.

Yet another good reason to bring back the guillotine

Skateboard vs pram

In the end I popped up the terminal and used some pot command with some flag I can’t remember to skip the login step on setup.

I reckon there is good chance you aren’t using windows 11 home though right?

Sorry answered it elsewhere, yep windows 11.

The forced update took forever and failed and then it also fucked out with the Microsoft account. It was legit 2 hours from boot to seeing a desktop. I wanted to skip the updates and the Microsoft account.

The start menu is full of ads for software I don’t want. If I buy software off you, stop trying to upsell me.

Yeah, sure. But I don’t run a shop anymore and just picked up an off the shelf machine from a retailer.

Turned it on, connected it to wifi, then it took forever to try and update itself, which failed, required another reboot, then made me sign in, which also failed, needed a reboot

I dont want a fucking ms account, I don’t want to wait for every update, just ask my name and take me to the desktop

I’ve been a full time dev since 2012 and needed a Mac, I had barely used windows over that time but beforehand ran a PC service business.

Anyway, Ive been using Linux as a daily driver for the past 6 months for reasons.

… The other day I got a new cheap laptop I needed to setup for run a single application.

Holy fuck what a shitshow.

It took me 2 hours just to get to the desktop. Shit didn’t work, bullshit login screens, ads everywhere.

It was a massive pile of dog shit.

After battling to get the system setup for the rest of the day I gave up, chucked Fedora Kinoite On it… Took 30 minutes from creating boot media to getting a desktop going, chucked the app I needed to run in a Flatpack, chucked it on a USB, and it was up and running.

No bullshit.

Just works.

Truly the year of the Linux desktop.

Does that hurt the journalist?

I’m Australian and there NO way I would be going anywhere near the states any time soon.

My prediction is trump is going to mobilise Maga as a militia and you guys are headed for a full blown civil war

Back before crypto because a speculation vehicle we very nearly got rid of all this bullshit. Unfortunately it just wasn’t convenient and widespread enough before people decided holding on to hashes forever was gonna make them rich.
