If I ever make it to the point where I have a removedin' deck overlooking some fine wilderness then you're damn right I'm gonna piss off it.

Missed out on Wales there which is a bit from the pink collumn and a bit from the blue column.

What's the worst scam you've fallen for (or gotten close to falling for)? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 20 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (3 children)

My RuneScape account got rinsed because of my teenage stupidity in the early 2000's, learned a very valuable lesson and haven't been scammed since.

Microsoft's draconian Windows 11 restrictions will send an estimated 240 million PCs to the landfill when Windows 10 hits end of life in 2025 in c/[email protected]

At least it'll do wonders for the used market, hopefully.

So many things I'd rather do than go back to Windows in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Pretty much the only thing Windows has going for it is hardware support, and that's purely down to manufacturers not supporting Linux so I can't even give MS kudos for that.

If my simracing hardware ever gets decent support I'm switching all my machines over.

The list of reasons why I refuse to buy Nintendo products is getting pretty hefty at this point.

Never trust a man with two first names.

Did you ever think that maybe all VPN services are actually secretly owned/funded by governments and that they are only giving you a false illusion of privacy? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

Yeah but would they show their hand by coming down heavy on the average pirate or petty law breaker? If they did have ways to track all VPN traffic they wouldn't want us to know about it.

Japan ordered to compensate wartime 'comfort women' in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 57 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Best of luck enforcing it, I love Japan but it's like talking to a brick wall when it comes to war time atrocities.

Let me know when I can trial a bidet.

Which distro do you believe deserves more recognition? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I love the idea of peppermint OS but it didn't work properly on my laptop both times I tried it, first time it wouldn't install any of the extras I selected during the install process and the second time using the Debian 12 base it just straight up wouldn't give me an option to install extras and the window would instantly close when I tried to open it. I really love the ideology behind it and it is a speedy OS but I've ended up going to LMDE instead while I toy with the idea of Arch.
