I love that it’s also got build instructions for Windows and macOS

Just my 2c while taking a shit, I think if the bot just printed the direct name of the news source (“Sky News Australia”, “CNN”, " The Guardian") and additionally said “This is the automatically detected source of this news. Please consider replying to this comment with a better source if you think one exists”

It makes it clear there’s zero bias and encourages conversation with other users here. It also is a reminder in case you might be skimming past and miss the domain it’s from, and you personally can judge “Oh, that’s what I think is a reputable source”, “Oh, it’s those wankers, this is garbage” or “I haven’t heard of that source before, I’ll be skeptical” as some examples

Aren’t IDE drives basically the only thing that used the master/slave terminology?

?!?! Isn’t Sky News a Murdoch run news org? I know the aus one is very right leaning

Decided to bring out my Windows laptop, down votes to the right.

This photo takes me back to when I’d make mock environments in Unreal or Unity engines

Well this was a good way to have me actually watch the video instead of skip over the link

Rendered for me fine on Jerboa

I found the same and I daily drove Windows 8.1 with OpenShell to the very end of support.

This isn’t the first time Microsoft has done this, I remember this being a huge gripe for me with Windows 8/8.1

Software shutdown button presser chiming in.

There’s two reasons I tend to use the software button. I know for a fact that clicking “Shut Down” will actually shut down the computer. If I press the hardware button, the computer usually is configured by default to sleep. Yes, I could change this default behaviour on all the devices I use, but then there’s the second reason:

From a psychological perspective, I tend to associate the hardware button as a “only use if system is locked up” button.

I feel it’s worth mentioning the application of them also factors into their longevity.

Good quality SD card holding some documents and random files? Yeah probably 10+ years. Good quality SD card being used in a dashcam, constant writes? I’m replacing my good SD card after about ~2 years of service because its showing signs of failure.

Let’s improve your experience

Sit back, relax, we’re taking the wheel here to once again shove our subscription products down your esophagus. Would you be so inclined as to now use New Outlook, OneDrive, Microsoft Office, Telemetry (just kidding, we make it mandatory and give you the illusion of choice), Edge and our sponsors Candy Crush? We thought you would, so we’ve set these as your default apps. For instance, we have decided for you that Edge was what you actually needed instead of LibreWolf, which cane from an unknown source.

Thanks again, we will come again in next month’s update!

Think you’re preaching to the choir on that one

Kind of, its based on the latest LTS of Ubuntu if memory serves me right

I try to avoid Ubuntu for a lot of the common reasons seen here, so a Debian based Mint suits me well

I’ve got an older Latitude that I’ve nearly maxxed out on a shoestring budget, it runs LMDE 6 and is my dedicated Linux machine. I use it for online study, Zoom sessions, content consumption, and some Python here and there, LMDE is rock solid and hasn’t given me any fuss at all.

Unless LM22 has undergone some significant changes, I would say LMDE 6 doesn’t feel “modern” but it feels polished

The algorithm is just garbage at this point. I ultimately just watch YouTube exclusively through Invidious at this point, can’t imagine going back at this stage.

I remember this as a kid, where (usually a Disney DVD) would have 2x 3 minute trailers, before you even got to the main menu, for other movies and if you tried to hit Next Chapter it would just spit back “Unable to do this at this time”.

Sometimes you might bypass it by hitting Root Menu if your DVD player remote had it, but yes very frustrating.

Maybe for home users. Working at an MSP, I can’t see small to medium sized businesses making any changes here anytime soon, especially those that use specialized software built only for Windows.
