  • I currently have a dual boot with Win10 as I just moved to Mint this month. The MS store keeps trying to update or install apps with copilot even though I don’t have it installed. Like, I uninstalled the notepad app just to prevent this crap and they keep adding it to other apps. The latest one is the GD photo viewer so I had to uninstall that and find an OS one to replace it with.

    Win10 is NOT a safe haven and I am so glad I’ve switched to Linux and recommend it to everyone who’ll listen. The only reason I keep Win10 on is in case I forgot an important file or something (I always do), or absolutely need it for some software (no idea if any exist for me) I use that only works with MS.






  • Whenever I need to refuel my rage tank I think of the fact that the Nvidia Settings window cannot be resized AND it’s dimensions are significantly larger than some key display settings like, oh I don’t know 720p . This means you often can’t choose certain settings or APPLY button because it is pushed below screen.

    Being able to comfortably change screen resolution is that fucking windows ONE JOB and it fails spectacularly.

    Edit: FTR it seems like recent versions do make the window resizable with actual scroll bars but for a long time this basic concept eluded them, and any old windows installs get f’d with this until you update.


  • Sorry, the absence of god isn’t a hole. It means being a moral person for rational reasons and not because some author of a fairy tale, who also say things like “it’s cool to kill some people”, said so. Even if it ‘was a hole’, filling it with proper education is far superior in all respects.

    Edit: and this is the first time I’ve seen someone argue that following a religion is NOT the intellectually lazy thing to do. Amazing.
