It is a unicorn. I dread the day Gaben dies and Valve ends up going public. It feels like the last bastion of decent online services.

Until they lock it up where you can’t. Or they’ll decide on selling data and injecting ads into your convos or streams.

In other words this hasn’t been enshittified to the max yet at all. There are new and horrible depths to explore.

Prescription meth does wonders for focus. Lol

I’m riding the same struggle bus and there are a lot of us. More like a struggle cruisliner, or struggle ark. Keep up the fight. I know it’s exhausting, but don’t let the bastards drag you down.

…fuck off.

I see about 3 I’m either interested in or played. CP2077 is definitely worth getting into. As is Baldurs Gate 3 from what I know of it.

Older stuff, nearly 100%. New stuff, still really high to nearly 100%. The only place you’ll run into trouble is with devices made with only windows drivers etc. So things like a USB label printer or glucose monitor or something like that.

Computer hardware though, very unlikely to see an issue. Servers use both the CPU and GPU. And most servers run some flavor of Linux.

What’s Realtek done? I haven’t kept up on them.

I’ve hated and avoided 11 since I first experienced it. After Xmas I had to help setup my parents new PC. It of course is win 11. I spent so much fucking time getting that shit just to a usable state. I’m more convinced than ever to fuck off from MS for good.

My favorite feature is honestly so simple. Denying network permissions during install.

I’m stoked to give it a try. I left my last PDF application because they injected AI into it. So I’ve been shopping around a little. I’ve been using Okular, but it’s really limited, even as a viewer. This looks awesome. Nicely done! I hope you keep at it!

Lol wait seriously? Surely those are a joke.

New taskbar from ground up. And despite all the requests to bring the feature back, their reasoning amounts to “we’re too lazy”

I can definitely understand that. It’s especially bad coming back to an old save. Feels like Gandalf in Moria “I have no memory of this place…”

Also…

Fuck you Shoresy!

Oooooo ship ship.

Lol may as well stock up now. It’s coming

Nice, that’s awesome.

Nice, where’d you get that deal?

My ddr4 now costs more than I bought it for originally. This after having dipped below $70 for 32GB. Now it’s over 300.

Lol good riddance. I cannot stand that smug twat.

Nah, just being an internet idiot and purposely misspelling ‘now’.
