Wait, you can refund your kid?!

If the recording equipment came with a subscription to a cloud storage provider that automatically uploaded everything you record on it by default and they did not report it to the authorities. Yes, we should.

It’s not. It’s weird that you’re defending a billionaire, bootlicker.

Well, if you don’t wanna celebrate a monster dying just for the sake of it, we can look at it from an environnent perspective, taking that pos out did more for the environnent than Green Peace has in the last 10 years.

Yep. Honestly, Lemmy feels like a circlejerk sometimes.

Oh, yeah, already did it. I was more so speaking to the experience a regular user would get out of the box.

lol this is the exact same rethoric people were spewing when Windows 7 went EOL because Windows 10 was sooo bad and now everyone’s fighting tooth and nail to keep using it. W11 is basically a better skin on W10. Just move on.

Honestly, I don’t get the hate of Windows 11. Sure, compatibility is a shitshow but if you can install it, it’s better than W10. I updated a couple months back and was pleasantly surprised. Things I like:

• Improved tiling
• The new terminal app is actually usable.
• More consistent theming
• Settings menu is no longer useless
• Last two points combined result in me not getting flashbanged nearly as often as I did in W10
• Improved volume mixer. I even ditched EarTrumpet.
• Most people won’t care about this one, but the little pop-ups that appear when you hover an icon in the system tray don’t get stuck in your screen as much as they did in W10.

Things that got worse:

• The start menu. Seriously. Stop with the redesigns.
• Taskbar is no longer movable. I liked it on the left.
• They hid the right click menu under an additional “More options” menu for some reason

Disclaimer: I only use my Windows computer for playing games. I do all of my regular day to day computing on my laptop with Fedora (KDE spin because I’m not a godless heathen I like it better). I’m also running the Education version, which is basically Enterprise so I have feature updates straight up turned off and only get security updates. It also doesn’t have any ads but my ROG Ally has W11 Home and it doesn’t have any ads either, so I don’t even know what’s real anymore.

You know what? You might be right; I never actually bothered to check if Cinnamon was heavier than Plasma, I just remember it feeling very stuttery when I last daily drove it. Admittedly, that was a very long time ago and GNOME was a complete shit show back then so Cinnamon probably just inherited some of its performance issues. I imagine all of that is fixed by now.

What the hell?! You got mine right!

Not really, but it would have been cool. Also, socials are 9 digits in the US.

I’m honestly not interested in 23andMe so I never bothered to fact-check so take this with a massive grain of salt but I did watch Linus (from TechTips, not Linux) rant about the privacy problems it has. I don’t trust him about these things but I’ve also watched him rant in favor of letting the spyware consumer features of Windows stay on because they’re so great and it’s not that big of a deal, so 23andMe has to be doing something very, very wrong.

So you’re saying your comment has fuck all to do with space exploration and you were just looking for an excuse to drag everyone into a conversation about capitalism.

As a rule I dont get dragged into pointless debates.

Funny.

What does this have to do with space exploration, you absolute child?

Are you 12?

What on earth are you talking about? Windows is the king of a system just breaking itself for seemingly no reason with no way of fixing it. At least on Linux, I know there’ll be hundreds of forum posts telling me how to fix something.

While we’re on the subject of esoteric issues with Windows, Update just recently had a bug where it couldn’t update if your Recovery partition wasn’t big enough. The Recovery partition that was created on install. Automatically. By Windows.

Cinnamon is way more resource hogging than KDE.

I really don’t think the /j is necessary.
