All Windows sucks balls big time, like I said I was 12 and the only other OS I experienced before that was mac when it was still black and white and whatever the hell was on the apple II

Thriftbooks! If you don’t know about thriftbooks you have to check it out, it’s incredible. So many extremely cheap books 😍

ooooh I forgot about windows 8, gross

The fact that people legitimately act like Trump is a better option for president than Biden because he hadn’t up until this point actively voiced support for Israel speaks volumes about how fucking doomed and politically ill-informed our country’s voter base is.

What a uniquely disturbing inability to have any awareness of context whatsoever!

Are you actually incapable of reading things as they’re written and just see words and react, or do you actually know what they’re saying and are just trolling? The issue they were very obviously addressing is that many people are acting as though Trump is somehow a better option because Biden supports Israel, so the question now becomes how will these people respond when they see that Trump (obviously) also supports what Israel is doing. I find it very difficult to believe that you don’t know that, but if you somehow don’t, how do you get around the world with such a limited capacity for extracting meaning the things people say?

If Linus is good for anything, it’s being a perfect example of the average moron who thinks they know everything so they actively refuse new information.

The worst part is their excuse for not doing it. They’re under the impression that not enough people care about it, so it’s not worth implementing, and in explaining that they make it sound like it’s some great effort to make taskbar-related context menus pop up from the top instead of the bottom. Literally just having the volume or whatever menu pop up in relation to the top instead of the bottom. It’s the craziest fucking thing I’ve ever seen, especially since like five different free apps and a couple paid ones already have done it. A few hours worth of coding and testing is apparently too expensive time and money-wise for literally Microsoft to bother spending.

Tali Roth then explains that “when it comes to actually being able to move the taskbar to different locations on the screen, there are a number of challenges with that. When you think about having the taskbar on the right, or the left, all of a sudden the reflow and the work all of the apps have to do to have a wonderful experience is just huge.”

A wonderful experience they say. Jesus fucking christ. I haven’t had a “wonderful experience” since Windows 98 and that was largely because I was 12 and didn’t know any better.

I’m not sure what you mean, the start button on the taskbar? I’m pretty sure it’s always been in exactly the same place and all that has changed is whether it literally says start or not, and what glyph it uses to represent it?

This is basically me, but reverse the lemmy and reddit percentages. I’m halfway through the Vampire: The Masquerade Clan Novel series 🤘

Oooh this is gonna be a big problem for me, thanks for the heads up.

We are making content…we’re just also talking about reddit sometimes. Sort by All.

I haven’t played any Fallouts except 76 for about 15 minutes cuz a friend wanted me to, I’ll give them a shot 👍

Thanks for the tip!

hahaha no problem. I had a feeling something like that was up, but the thing that made me really want to join was that the conversations I saw were people actually communicating and not being giant dickbags so I intend to keep that going 👍

Wonderful games, but I’ve already played BOTW into the ground and there’s zero chance Yuzu will run TOTK well on my AMD 5625u APU machine (that being said, I am of course playing it obsessively on both the Switch and emulated on my tower PC w/much higher specs), …and of course neither of them are 90s/00s games… but thanks anyways ❤️

It’s normal if you have dylsexia/ADHD <3

To the surprise of literally nobody. Oh well. Enjoy the mass exodus when people stop using reddit because it no longer props up google. Maybe it’ll hurt Reddit and Google 😍

It’s already bad with the blackouts. Maybe Bing will finally have its day in the sun lol

They’re not gonna repeal anything. The only thing that will stop this is by Reddit dying and becoming a part of web history, which is hopefully on its way to happening.

I’m on Endeavour right now. I just got a Thinkpad E15 G4 specifically so I could have a Linux PC, as I’m regrettably running Win11 on my tower PC w/RTX GPU because of how many games I (and more significantly my children) play that either don’t work or don’t work as well on Linux.

I start with Mandrake in 2002, then Ubuntu from 2005-2013, and have been on Arch pretty exclusively since 2017 aside from some random distro-hopping for fun. I was gonna run it on here, but I just didn’t feel like going through the installation process today, so I said screw it and threw on Endeavour, and honestly it’s really nice having a fairly vanilla Arch experience without having to figure out my network manager, and starting every little thing from scratch and all that. Think I’ll probably stick with it ❤️
