I have literally talked to one person at work, that he might want to try out Linux Mint in VM. Dude have never used Linux, but seems to be skilled enough to install it on his own.

Good. Fuck Elon Musk and Twitter.

As long as it have good value to me I will use it. The same as with other services.

The thing is I don’t mostly mind paying for having YouTube without ads, but I would prefer if it didn’t have anything to do with Google in the first place.

I want to like Tumbleweed, but every time I check for updates there’s like a gigabyte of them. I am probably going to switch to Leap at certain point. I don’t understand what’s the point of having latest stuff anyway. Unless you are gaming on your device I guess.

I enjoy YouTube Music, because it is much snappier and better than Spotify, but there are some things that just make no sense, and I wonder how are they not spotted by not even a single dev.

If you happen to see blue screen on Windows, it’s most likely a hardware or driver problem. It is not Windows 9x days when a user program could take down whole OS with ease.

I’ve seen one recently, when I kicked my computer by an accident.

I don’t want to be that guy, because I still hate Windows, but… most people who have these problems just didn’t set up updates properly. Well, that, or they never restart their computer.

Same for Ubisoft Launcher.

I remember having trouble installing software from Microsoft Store, (there’s apparently a solution for that, but it didn’t work for me) but otherwise it’s a perfectly normal Windows 10 installation, just without any bloat.

EU should just go and tell Microsoft that either they will allow consumers to install Windows 11 on hardware that would have no trouble running it (they could even slap a warning that it’s not fully “supported”, like whatever), or tell the user that there’s an eco-friendly alternative: that is running Linux, with instructions on how to do so. Otherwise they just allow a monopoly to have disastrous impact on the environment.

explorer.exe is still used for desktop and probably other stuff as well, so it might not be possible without using 3rd party shell replacement and not many exist.

You can run Windows in virtual machine, you know.

It would be the best if you could have dedicated GPU for it, to be able to run games with nearly 100% performance.

You could say the same about Android and iOS. They are preloaded with a web browser not many people change. In fact I’ve noticed that many users (mostly older) using Android don’t even know what browser they are using, since they just type shit into Google widget on their home screen.

Assembly isn’t magic. Computers compiling/interpreting high-level languages into assembly, and making everything works without constantly breaking IS MAGIC

There’s an online version of VS Code: vscode.dev (not sure if that’s official, though)

Edit: Oh, well… it cannot open and edit local files, making it useless at least for me.

Exactly. And Spotify for example is horrendous. I don’t understand how people can use an app that is so slow and buggy.
