They wanted to make it Beyond Good (while being evil too)

MMOs are time vampires. I’ve got the same experience with Guild Wars.

I know. I’m just stuck with gmail and doing what I can

I use Gmail at my workplace. They can go right ahead and use my emails that I check using Thunderbird to send me targeted ads if I ever use their search engine (I use DuckDuckGo).

Here’s a userscript that renames Trump on every website you visit into a random humorous insult

It has been a long time since I bought an EA game, yeah. Bioware was their only developer that I cared for.

Next update breaks something else

But the update after that…

There are scripts on some sites that attempt to block right-click saving, you know.

Next up: uBlock Origin filters get called piracy

Those RSS feeds have been so heavily rate-limited over the past year that they were practically unusable already. I’m glad they’re finally making an announcement about it. No more ambiguity. No more aggressively sporadic 403 and 429 errors.

Go ahead and kill the only reason I ever used your site.

Ads require streaming. I prefer watching already downloaded videos so I don’t need to worry about having a stable internet connection.

We have X=X+1 Outlooks and none of them are working

This guy/gal skips Windows

I self-host RSSHub so my reader can pull feeds for websites that don’t provide them. I don’t host my reader, though.

All of the issues were caused by Windows. Switching them to Mint was seamless experience and everyone has been happier after the move.

You can get adapters to convert USB A to C. YMMV for that, though. I’m not the primary user of these computers, so I needed to make sure the trackpads were working properly.

Files were already backed up at multiple locations. I wasn’t using cmd.exe to transfer files. I was using it to attempt to fix broken WiFi and touchpad drivers.

why would you need to run updates on the old systems at all?

Ask Microsoft.

When I was in the process transitioning my lab from Windows 10+11 to Linux Mint, I was spending more time in Windows’ cmd.exe attempting to debug issues introduced through Windows Update than the Linux Terminal.

This and .desktop files. Don’t forget your OS is already a launcher.

EDIT: spelling

I use RSS to aggregate my aggregators because I don’t like my reading and commenting to be tied to a single platform
