Time to chmod 000 every game on the system and have them figure out what file permissions are ;)

I remember when I was a young child one of my favorite things to do on a computer was… Entering numbers into Excel.

I don’t know if this is a good idea, but I’ve been thinking of the idea of giving an old air-gapped computer with Linux to a potential young child of mine.

Therefore, they can tinker around, play with educational software, maybe even learn some terminal stuff, all without the dangers of the Internet.

Because you’re coding “based on vibes,” not logical thought.

Using AI to generate code without fully understanding what the code is doing.

Can they even be removed with adb?

Balatro players: +15 chips and +2 mult to flushes

I first found out about it last week and it served my purpose well. It has options for what you want to name the file based on the metadata too!

That’s good to hear. I don’t use streaming services so I don’t have firsthand experience

The sources I read said only the lower versions of widevine, which many platforms don’t support at all

Which ones?

Could be worse, some people park or put their hazards on for minutes at a time in the middle of a one lane one way road.

I use Fidelity investments; money that isn’t in stocks automatically goes into SPAXX, a market rate high yield savings account.

You forgot the nose when sleeping! It produces snoring, giving your location and sleep status away to nearby predators!

What are good brands that don’t sell your data? Is TP-link okay?

No, I mean 500Mb/s, as my Internet will be 300Mb/s. My needs are not great.

With the cryptid mod you probably can

I also use ZArchiver and unzipping is zippy (sorry) in my experience. Not quite as fast as Linux but that’s to be expected considering the hardware difference.

However Windows is quite slow in this regard in my experience. It can easily take 30 seconds to extract a zip file that Linux can do in under a second, often with a sub 1MBps throughput. This is on an NVMe SSD.

Can we stop putting actually infuriating political BS in the lighthearted c/mildlyinfuriating?

I have a few examples:

• Flight Sim 2020
• Windows Defender is the best antivirus, better than all those paid crapware antiviruses
• An attempt at an independent browser engine that wasn’t the dated IE
• This is a hot take but seamless integration of local file storage with OneDrive. Yes, they are way too heavy-handed about forcing this on you and it’s really stupid how it moves your files without telling you, but I’ve never seen a file manager that handles both local and cloud files faster than W10’s file manager (a big part of the reason why I was mad about W11, because that advantage disappeared)

The only useful thing I can think of after the pandemic is the CPU scheduling updates for Alder Lake, but that was pretty much a necessity. Everything else is AI overhype, rewriting programs to make them slower, and/or yet another way to invade people’s privacy
