Still might want to practice on a hot dog or something afterwards though.

Good old fashioned enshitification.

I’m experimenting with Pop_OS on a laptop as my daily driver after playing with different distros in VM environments over the years. There’s definitely a learning curve, but so far so good.

Back when we saw the death of the floppy disk, I knew optical media’s days were numbered. Twenty years ago we had no idea that everything was going to be “something as a service.” Enshitification hadn’t been invented yet.

Guess I’m done talking shit about Clippy.

Any recommendations on a piracy-friendly e-reader? I don’t want to go around the world to get root access either if I can help it.

Thanks for the input. I haven’t been following this story closely.

We don’t use the word “Spyware” like we did twenty years ago. It’s baked into Windows now.

Israel starts to steal homes, land and killing men, children and women.

Can I get a source for this? I’ve been living under a rock.

Cave hermit here and I was delighted the first time I launched Quake 3 Arena on a linux distro. I’m wading deeper into the linux pool since Microsoft has lost their mind. Ads have no place in an operating system.

Gaming has tied me to Windows for decades, but thanks to companies like Valve and System 76 the long awaited shift may continue accelerating.

I’m glad to be here to see it.

Am I brain damaged or is part of the joke the fact that the screenshot isn’t legible?

Ninja Edit Nevermind. The Boost app seems to default to low res images.

Don’t forget the lemons for your party.

It’s all about the money.

I’ll second KSP. I learned a ton from that game.

You the real MVP.

Nevermind the fact that the standard definition playback looks like a smeared turd when you play it on a modern high resolution display. I’ll stick to ripping Blu-ray.

Honestly, how much better can they get? I love to have the latest gadgets as much as the next guy, but I’ve got bills and shit too.

Still rocking my Pixel 4a.

You might say he took Adjit on it.

My local power company operates as a co-op utility company and ISP that runs gigabit fiber to my curb. <$100/month. Community owned utilities can be amazing when done right.

We’ve had an identical experience. It’s sad to see the enshitification of GMail.
