I’ve seen someone suggest wildmagic wands for a one shot.

Just because something can swim doesn’t make it a fish.

You should definitely check out the original Monkey Island games when you have a chance! 1 and 2 got well done remasters, and 3 onward don’t really need any remastering.

Yep, and in the statement they’re referring to, it explicitly suggests that their users should set up PGP.

Some additional context:

It was made by 4chan users over a decade ago, when that sort of thing was accepted there as “edgy humor”. Make of it what you will. I think there’s been some growing up, since they don’t offer/support those domains now.

Context is important.

It was made by 4chan users over a decade ago, when that sort of thing was accepted there as “edgy humor”. Clearly there’s been some growing up, since they don’t offer/support those domains now.

My guy, I’m a grown ass adult that does sysadmin work for a living in a full Windows/Microsoft environment. Just stop. You’re wrong about how Windows works.

Your meme is simply not how Windows works, unless you intentionally choose to disable the security feature of UAC while leaving Windows Defender on. At that point you’ve accepted the risk that you could do something to break your shit.

You turned off warnings for all the shit you say Windows sleeps through, but left Windows Defender on which keeps the exe warnings. The only way to get Windows to work the way in this meme is if you configure it in this non-standard way.

Your willingness to poke around with computers will serve you well, especially in the modern age as people are less willing to do that, but don’t assume you know everything just because you know more than the people around you day to day.

Upstart? Ecosia has been around for fucking ages

So once again we have someone who doesn’t actually use (modern) Windows making false statements about how it functions, upvoted to the moon because Microsoft bad. They are, but this is embarassing.

Never change lemmy.

All of those things require admin rights, which is an explicit acceptance that you are now working with things that could fuck your shit up. Modern Windows, unless you disable UAC, asks you to confirm you’re sure you want to use admin rights before you have the opportunity to break any of the shit you claim it’s chill about.

Running an exe doesn’t require admin rights, hence the extra warnings. Plus a malicious exe could do all that shit without asking for admin first through a privilege escalation exploit.

I swear, people find more uninformed shit to complain about with Windows every day.

If all else fails, you can try using whatever the lastest community supported fork of Universal Android Debloater is. It uses ADB to remove bloatware, which bypasses vendor locks on keeping certain apps installed.

Obviously no real replacement for custom ROMs, but it’s better than nothing.

Flashing your lights or highbeams to pass is seen as quite agressive in the US. It isn’t taught in drivers ed, and the general interpretation I hear most people have of it isn’t “Hey, could you let me pass?” but instead “Hey! Fuckface! Stop driving so goddamn slow and get out of the damn way you shithead!”

Doesn’t help that in my experience, the only people flashing to pass are aggressively tailgating me when I’m already 10 mph or more over the speed limit.

Better to just pass on the right if there’s room. And if there isn’t room, fuck off telling someone to get out of your way. Not like they can get over anyway.

They replaced the original Edge with an Edge/Microsoft branded Chromium fork a few years ago, so it supports all addons Chrome does.

I’ve averaged 4-5 comments a day since I made my account. Probably not who you’re asking about but I’ll bite.

I’m a SysAdmin/Systems Engineer- My work tends to be feast or famine in terms of how busy things get, and there’s often times where I just have to “babysit” a long running process or script. Also times where I just need to clear my head so I can approach a problem a different way.

It’s very simple. The US government maintains a list of sanctioned entities and companies. US citizens and businesses are not allowed to do business with these entities. Most of the removed maintainers either used their company email, or very publicly are employees of these sanctioned companies.

There’s no investigation of connections or anything complicated going on here.

Also, if you think corporations becoming effective government is some Russia specific thing, I have a bridge to sell you.

He’s practically always been like this. If anything he’s notably softened with age.

From being able to work on Linux stuff without having their contributions reviewed by someone else (not from russia).

It’s an important distinction many seem to miss.

I would love to see The Protomen’s albums adapted into a muscial (assuming they ever finish Act 3). Reading the liner notes while listening along gets close, and they already did the music for “Terminator the Second” (musical shakespearian adaptation of Terminator 2).

Not content with unasked for evangelizing in Windows communities and posts, this Stallman’s Witness tries their hand in an even less welcome locale.

Injured by the failure of their attempt, they seek sympathy back in friendlier climes.

Even so, why post this and not any one of countless other things?

Like I feel that you’re missing a clear sign here. Most people would roll their eyes and move on. This is quite possibly the most “leopards ate my face” post in this community and yet it’s being upvoted because “hooray tribalism” over something as asinine as OS (really kernel) choice.
