I dunno. I have lots of problems with textures (and textures that feel good as well). Might be ADHD, might just be me being weird. But plates, cups, and silverware especially shouldn't be greasy and if you fry anything you'll get grease everywhere.
Having a diagnosis officially opens up some doors for the world to wait for you. That's one of the major helpful parts of having the diagnosis. It means that you are officially diagnosed with a disability, and that certain allowances would be made for you under the law (if you live in a country with such provisions).
Even without medication, that can make a world of difference and is an important factor in getting an official diagnosis.
Extra time for college or work assignments, a more flexible schedule, a private work space, noise canceling headphones, etc can be beneficial along with the coping mechanisms he's trying to get you to develope in order to facilitate a better management of your condition.
That's probably the conversation you should be having with this therapist. Because if he can't legally give you a diagnosis he should put in a referral for a doctor who can. And if he can give you a diagnosis, I think he should be doing the job you pay him for.
Uninstalling allowed grub to boot Bazzite normally with no errors for me so right now that's maybe the best we can hope for. I also don't want to re-install all my plugins.
But like. A lot of the time security/privacy fails like this are user-inflicted. Either because people don't understand the apps and services they use, or because other people aren't as vigilant about auditing their networks (the people, the hardware the software).
Also, perhaps just checking for updates? When I checked for updates I could see that there was a new update for decky loader but at that point I had decided to uninstall it anyway to prevent future problems.
That's why I said an app like signal. People assume that every app works the same. Telegram had issues with encryption where all parties didn't have encryption enabled but one or more of the parties involved assumed the chat was still encrypted.
However I should probably change that to read more along the lines of: know the features and settings of your app and ensure that encryption settings are set to maximize the protection of privacy.
So, I've been looking into this for myself and it looks like what's broken is the MagicPods module in deckyloader. If you previously installed that, you can try uninstalling decky and then re-installing it and leave that module out of the reinstall/setup process and see if that works.
At this point I'm gonna leave decky uninstalled on my system mostly because I'm pretty tired of it breaking.
The court ruled that cloudflare made it too easy to register an account and create a domain. And that they didn't do enough to prevent those domains from being used for piracy.
Apparently under Japanese law that's the barrier of proof they needed to cross.
I think this is probably not a good way to look at it.
The company you work for, or the company that supplies the company you work for, or the company that manages your 401K etc are all invested in this bubble.
When I say that the growth of GDP of the USA used to be 70% consumer spending year over year and it's now something like 60% AI, I want you to understand that consumers aren't gonna have money to make up that 60% when this bubble pops. Because all of us will be detrimentally affected when it happens.
A lot of us don't know where or when the blow is going to come from, and somehow we think ourselves insulated from the effect this bursting bubble will have. But that's simply not true.
The prices of everything that we need to live and every convenience we rely on to make our lives easier is now tied to this bubble. Things are going to get more expensive when it pops (even if it craters the market on some components etc).
I normally have to go in (uninstall just deckloader), and reinstall deckyloader when this happens. There's no way that I have found to do it otherwise and it's happened to me at least three times now.
I'm sure there probably is another way, but I haven't had success with anything but the uninstall/reinstall method.
We're not talking about firing up chat gpt in a web browser here. Microsoft is installing "agentic AI" on windows machines regardless of whether or not customers want it. They don't have a say in the matter except the more tech savvy of them who will find ways to edge around the restrictions on how long you can delay downloads or whether or not certain features get downloaded at all.
Saying otherwise (that it's just consumers deciding to use this "feature") is as disingenuous as your first bad analogy about the lock. Especially since you haven't explained what function this AI performs. The lock performs a singular function adequately enough for the risk involved for most people. And it does it passively. The AI is not the same no matter how often or how hard you try to shoehorn it into your silly analogy.
You explained your doubling and tripling down quite adequately when you said you work in AI. It would be helpful to this conversation if you could stop drinking the flavorade for five minutes and just think about the fact that people don't want this and Microsoft is saying that they know it's problematic but they are forcing it on people anyway.
This conversation is over though because you want to be right more than you want to be logical and correct and so now you are neither. Have a nice life.
To be fair (even though I also am both happy and relieved to see articles like this), just because you convert to Linux, that doesn't mean everyone else will. I have used so many guides to help debloat windows computers, and turn off nonsense I don't want (mostly so I can use proprietary software for work). My choice to not use windows in my personal life on my personal devices doesn't really change my situation with needing those guides to help others circumvent windows BS.
I wish we didn't have to live in interesting times and all that, but the guides are helpful.
It technically shouldn't happen unless you don't create a separate EFI partition for your Linux install.
It is generally recommended that you create a separate EFI partition for Linux specifically so that windows cannot mess with your Linux install when it updates.
I could see a bios update having some affect though.
