they’re terrified people might learn something from this.

this linux fucks

man THAT’S why that happens!

i just bought and returned four fake-ass 512gb microSDs. now i won’t touch samsung memory at all, the market is FLOODED with fakes.

as is par for the course, nothing will be done.

babe i’ve given BOTH of us a great idea. i’ve still got my very first big ass CRT. i’d love to give it life again.

bonus points if you reuse the old DVI hookup as a video out. TIL regular-ass DVI can handle 1920x1200 @ 60hz!

do folks do pc builds inside of old CRT cases? that seems like a niche that should exist.

there’s something so funny about them both being apple products, but the offending party getting the disrespect of “this stupid antique computer”

320gb hdd I had laying around that would otherwise just collect dust due to it’s miniscule size.

i put a 512gb drive in a thinkpad less than a decade ago and thought at the time “boy this might be overkill”

and now i can get 2tb on a fucking microsd for a cheaper data/cost ratio than i did back then, wild.

I think starting a sentence with “For those like me” is a pretty clear indication that someone is speaking for themself

e: i’m just being catty btw, it’s a totally fine use of the phrase

“The social rating figures don’t affect [a person’s] life, the availability of services or the career trajectory in any way, but who knows what these figures will mean for you in the future?”

What does that even mean? You can’t say “they won’t affect you” and also “who knows how they will affect you?”

I make that same mistake enough that at this point I figure I’m just contributing to the paradigm shift of modern english grammar.

Making the oxford comma mandatory is my next big target.

In defense of Andrew, until windows 10 never had I ever installed a program that made it’s own files untouchable unless you did some real fuckery with permissions.

As soon as they introduced that little warning screen in program files it was clear shit was going downhill for power users.

every month i send off $10k for “the benefit and continued development of rickyrigatoni” and you’re telling me you work for FREE?

who’s been cashing the checks, ricky?

I also struggled to get photoshop up and running on my linux machine, I was even going for cs6 too funnily enough. Purely out of exasperation I ended up trying photogimp, and I haven’t looked back since.

I think the look they’re going for is like, current gen photoshop essentials? I don’t really care, it’s close enough to cs6 that it doesn’t feel like I’ve had to relearn anything.

Y’know there’s actually myriad industries that completely lack compulsory air travel, believe it or not.

As worse and worse win11 features are unveiled it’s so funny to see these posts slowly filled with more “yeah i just switched to linux” comments.

ayyyy that’s been my go to! sometimes when the normal hosts don’t resolve it’ll start auto-playing russian dubs, it’s so silly.

Fucken William H. Macy is all like “вот что ты пропустил на прошлой неделе в сериале Shameless” and I just lose it.

I swear to god, 90% of “feeling the bloat” is completely artificial. Go to dev settings and turn up the speed on all the animations. Everything is faster.

My biggest issue is the settings menu being a fucking mess. The new categories suck hard. Wanna see an overview of your storage? Well it used to be under “usage” with your data and battery, but data usage got moved to “connections” with bluetooth and wifi. Now data usage lives under “battery and device care”, conveniently placed 6th from the bottom of the list for easy access.

And don’t even get me started on these motherfuckers taking up 5 separate spaces for what could be a single “display” category.
