  • Many such cases

  • Being forced to be online to log in and forced use of OneDrive confuses new users just as much

    You're not forced to use either of those, IIRC. Just set it up without connecting to the internet or without signing in.

  • YouTube's next move might make it virtually impossible to block ads

    Jump

  • That assumes every ad is exactly the same (or at least the same length) and at the same spot for every user.

  • YouTube is experimenting with server-side ads

    Jump

  • Yeah, definitely not impossible. I had to install some TamperMonkey scripts to get Twitch adblock working, but it works.

  • This isn't a joke I made up on my own, either. That's legitimately what Sony calls it.

  • Elon Musk threatens to ban Apple devices from his companies over OpenAI partnership

    Jump

  • Just based on what I've seen from other AI implementations (including Windows Recall), it seems like he was at least right that it's a security nightmare.

    I'm not saying he said that out of the goodness of his heart or whatever. He definitely only said it out of jealousy or some other self-serving reason.

    My broken clock statement wasn't meant to be taken as a compliment. It's the opposite. He's been wrong so many times that I'd gotten used to just pointing and laughing at anything he says or does. And it's gotten to the point that I'm genuinely surprised he actually said something "right" for once, even if it was for his own selfish reasons.

  • Elon Musk threatens to ban Apple devices from his companies over OpenAI partnership

    Jump

  • In a series of posts on his social media platform X, Musk shared concerns about whether Apple and OpenAI will protect users’ information.

    He called the software integration between the two companies “an unacceptable security violation,” and said Apple has “no clue what’s actually going on.”

  • I can't ignore the irony.

  • I still call it Twitter. I refuse to call it anything with the letter X in it. That includes "X (formerly known as Twitter)".

  • Even a broken clock is right twice a day as the saying goes.

    Though he's right for entirely the wrong reasons, I'm betting.

  • no really how do we fix this?

    Jump

  • I just subscribed to Kagi to try it out.

  • I somehow broke my Debian bookworm install…

    Jump

  • I installed Mint on a USB to give it a go.

    My wifi driver doesn't work on it. I have to plug my phone in to use it as a tethered hotspot to get it to connect. And I tried what a lot of the guides said online. Nothing.

  • I'd say I have the technical chops. I just don't have the time and energy needed to try to fix something.

    I'm also the kind of person that, if everything's not working exactly the way I want it to, then I need to fix it right now. So I know I'd waste hours trying to fix something that (for me) just works on Windows.

  • I somehow broke my Debian bookworm install…

    Jump

  • To be fair, at least with Windows, if you do a reinstall I've always found that it never runs quite like it used to. I've sometimes had to deal with some weird quirks afterwards. A friend of mine who kept switching between Google Android and open-sourve Android on his phone said the same thing. Every time he reinstalled Google Android, it simply wouldn't run as well as it did beforehand.

    It's like taking a plumbing pipe out and putting it back in. Or taking apart a car engine and putting it back together. It never quite fits together the way it used to anymore.

  • They're not trying to hide it, though.

    Everyone knows that's what they do. And that's why they continue doing it that way. It's a way to say, "There's nothing you can do to stop me, now shut up and obey."
