BIOS meaning the EFI boot menu. It’s a generic term that we refuse to let die just because EFI has taken over.

You can 100% use winget install [softwarename] if it doesn’t collide with another piece of software of the same name.

And throwing everything in a user directory causes tons of issues that I’ve seen when something is expected to be installed the way Windows needs it to be.

And creates huge fucking issues by not using the actual installers and doing user installs in many, many instances. Winget just works, which was my entire point.

And I’ve seen little to no important FOSS projects that weren’t available from winget, which you’d know if you’d actually try it.

They didn’t have to copy it, now did they? Just because something was shit before something else was shit isn’t a fucking excuse.

And that’s where comic books went to shit, too. Do kids these days really have no real arguments for anything besides citing even more bullshit to support their bullshit?

is using (…) reddit (…) okay

No.

How do people like scoop and chocolatey better than winget? Winget is thousands of times more reliable and useful to me.

“Great” meaning great gigantic messes of nonsensical fanservice and a flood of movies and shows all tied to each other so if you miss one episode of Obscure Marvel Kerfuffle Re-re-revisited you’ll be lost.

You know, like fucking Star Wars is now.

Disney is fucking evil. Fuck Disney.

Teenager gets (rightfully) arrested for cutting down one tree: panic

Big corporations cut down bajillions of trees in sensitive areas of the world every single fucking day: sleep

Exactly this. It’s a hateful, spiteful show about everyone making fun of geek culture. I have always despised it and will continue to despise it. It’s not “safe”, it’s not okay, it’s nothing. Fuck everyone for making that shit show a thing and continuing the hatred and mockery that geek culture has had since I was young years and years and years ago.

This happens with most Linux installs particularly with Windows 11, but you can still boot to Linux from your BIOS. Interestingly enough, the only Linux distro where this has not happened is Fedora, which also doesn’t fuck the system clock up to make the Windows clock wrong. Fedora seems to be doing everything right these days.

It’s actually planned obsolescence by phone companies pushing updates that artificially cripple our phones and making us believe that they are becoming worthless. Every single phone will slow down over time, even if you reset the whole thing to clear out whatever you’ve installed. Sure, you’re going to need a new phone eventually when software advances past the technical limits of your device, but that’s not what’s happening; nothing has changed that much since you bought your phone but suddenly your phone is slow and not working nearly as well and the only thing to “fix” it is to buy a new phone.

It’s all a scam to make us all carry around tracking devices and to spy on us. Phones are garbage and belong in the trash can.

I never found a single use for RSS because I always found myself just going to the site anyway to read the full thing because 99.999999999% of RSS feeds are trash and it’s easier to just page through the site itself anyway. Podcasts… it feels like a massive waste of time listening to someone discussing something, usually poorly, with tons of exposition, diversions, and other BS. I’d rather just read something instead.

Good riddance to both.

If you would do any searching regarding Pop!OS you would see tons of posts and articles saying that it hasn’t been updated in forever and it’s not just graphics drivers and such that need updating, it’s essential OS packages. You’re running the Windows 7 of Linux distros and spouting the same arguments as they do.

I have yet to find a distro besides Fedora that is actually reliable and works well with everything with minimal tweaking. Ubuntu and its derivatives are horribly unstable and finicky and everything else has its own issues. Fedora just works.

Yes, that.

Pop!OS is becoming more and more out of date and problematic. Honestly Fedora is the only version of Linux worth using these days (there’s some gamer variant of it I can never remember that’s probably fine too).

Because it’s the right thing to do and those greedy shits make a fortune off of ads and don’t need our money and okay I know, I know, MORE MONEY. Greedy shits. I mean… wouldn’t the ads be more valuable if they knew more people were watching? Or something?

Look, I’m just trying to get us all free Disney+ here, okay? Help me out here. :)

Too old and achy to run snekbois all over the place any more (I used to), if wifi isn’t good enough, tough.

Dear every single streaming service:

MAKE. THE. AD. TIER. FREE. FOR. EVERYONE. STUFF ALL THE ADS IN YOU WANT.

MAKE. THE. AD-FREE. TIER. PAID.

This way people can watch everything without having an elitist “I’M PAYING FOR ENTERTAINMENT” section of the world who are the only ones that can talk about all these new shows unless they sail the high seas with an eye patch on, which is yet another argument for MAKE THE AD TIER FREE FOR EVERYONE.
