Windows 11 has been a nightmare for me. Every time I leave the file browser open my fans start up like I’m doing something insensive. Mssms freezes constantly, visual studio freezes constantly. Switching between virtual desktops? Not without waiting 30 seconds. And finally, idk if this is a dell thing or a win11 thing but the “low power mode” that activates if my battery is at or below 10 percent, despite me turning off all battery saving settings I can find, makes my computer functionally useless. Programs don’t load, I can’t close or open anything. Like the whole point of low power mode is so you have a little more time to wrap up things before you can get to a charger. There’s no point to that if you set my PC so low power that it literally can’t even run the bloated ass OS on it. I hate it so fucking much.

What’s crazy is in my area, most people are Cajun, the Cajuns faced so much discrimination, deportation and even an attempted genocide, and successful assimilation, Cajun French is essentially a dead language. Their Great and great great grandparents were facing discrimination for being accepting of people of color and for not speaking English. Yet due to lack of education of their own history most Cajuns don’t realize they’re perpetuating the very injustices their ancestors went through, hell, there’s a huge population of cajuns that are POC and don’t even realize it!

I didn’t say either of those things. I said it’s in poor taste to specifically make fun of the most vulnerable people in a society in your clapback.

So why would you make fun of the people also effected by that? It just seemed like mistargeted aggression

Seems in poor taste to make fun of some of the most tragic parts of our society imo

Edit: I’m not saying that some sort of protest or criticism of America is not warranted, I definitely think it is. I’m saying doing so by making fun of the most vulnerable people in our society, that the system has failed the most, is in poor taste and comes off as punching down at the victims of the system rather than punching up at the system itself.

I use IR remotes plugged into lamps, they’re better than direct overhead lights anyway, easier on the eyes

I feel like that’s the type of thing that should be illegal to ask

There are several apps that are compiled for both Linux and windows natively, that’s what I was referring to

The monitor thing is very dependent on distro, I didn’t really have any issues at all with Linux mint or nobara

As others have said wine/proton is not an emulator and some games run even better on Linux, that being said a lot of AAA games have DRM that prevent you from running them on Linux, that would be your real argument there

Don’t like being able to share software? A ton of software on Linux is FOSS and available on windows, not all of it of course, but you could say the same about Mac

Depending on the corporation and software, you can use Linux, but yes, most places are windows shops, so that is difficult

But yeah,a computer that just “works” I concede most distros will not get you there. Nobara is definitely a bit unstable but I can deal with it because I was in IT for 6 years. Although immutable distros are close, but they definitely still take some knowhow to use, and have their limitations

Edit: misread part of the comment

Artist is beeple, he peddled shitty nfts and outed himself as an alt right shithead a few years ago

I trusted in it, because I saw the whole sniperwold jacksfilms thing play out with her almost doxxing him, and he specifically advocated for deleteme and talked about how they removed all his personal info from those sites, and sure enough, where I previously found his home address it was gone. I had heard praises for years about deleteme even back in the earlier internet days so that just sealed the deal for me. I used his coupon code to sign up lol.

I used deleteme for a year and I can safely say that my spam calls significantly dropped, and when I search my name data on me no longer shows up on those people websites. Would recommend

Also remove your phone number from places like LinkedIn and Facebook if you haven’t already. I got a few of job scam calls from linkdin

I mean Microsoft has azure, A LOT of companies use azure

Shirt presumably already on his body, he put his face in the gym shirt, put the axe in the gym shirt and then sprayed, huffing the sharp smell, like he was getting high

Minoxidil can cause heart palpitations so that’s not the best idea, that can get the oil in your eyes, mouth, and cuts

Hydrophobes be like “I’m dying of rabies!”

People are misinterpreting what straight means in this thread. You can date a trans person and be straight. Have a genital preference is different than your sexual orientation. It’s perfectly fine if you wouldn’t date a trans person because they don’t match your genital preference, sex related things can be a deal breaker. But you’re not gay for dating a trans person of the opposite sex.

Well, that’s best practices but that’s definitely not always implemented lmao

That means they’ve updated their password requirements and your new one is now rejected, or they reject passwords of a certain age or with a lack of account activity.
