You can if it’s DRM-free.

I know you have a hate-boner for Windows but having better overall security across all operating systems benefits us all, e.g. less botnets.

It does if you plug it into an outlet without the protection.

You can modify the Windows 11 iso to bypass the requirements. You can tick a checkbox in Rufus when creating the install media to have it do it for you.

I already have 30GB of math textbooks, I guess I’ll just download another 70GB of textbooks on various subjects and sell them to students. Y’all gonna return after 5 years to a new Elsevier.

Yeah, I had been wondering what to do with the couple of bucks I used to give to Wikipedia.

Wrong. It’s October 31st for the 33rd time.

You know what? You might be right; I never actually bothered to check if Cinnamon was heavier than Plasma, I just remember it feeling very stuttery when I last daily drove it. Admittedly, that was a very long time ago and GNOME was a complete shit show back then so Cinnamon probably just inherited some of its performance issues. I imagine all of that is fixed by now.

What the hell?! You got mine right!

Not really, but it would have been cool. Also, socials are 9 digits in the US.

I’m honestly not interested in 23andMe so I never bothered to fact-check so take this with a massive grain of salt but I did watch Linus (from TechTips, not Linux) rant about the privacy problems it has. I don’t trust him about these things but I’ve also watched him rant in favor of letting the spyware consumer features of Windows stay on because they’re so great and it’s not that big of a deal, so 23andMe has to be doing something very, very wrong.

I just tell people “don’t swipe unless you wanna see my dick” and that usually does it.

My insurance covers me for up to 7 million dollars and it’s like 1500 a year. How is a movie star not insured?

Just read the article. Well, that’s 100% a clickbait title.

Yeah, the fact that everyone’s fighting for physical media instead of DRM-free makes me skeptical that the argument is anything more than muh pretty box

Thank you for letting me know you have no interest in learning. Saves me some time.

I know a Kal-El. His mom just thinks it’s a cute name and has no idea where it came from so I’m sure his dad is the culprit.

Coding is the one who damages the soul. Obviously.

What even are physical games in this day and age? Sure, you can buy a disk but if you still need to download a zero day patch that takes approximately a buttload of time to finish before you can actually start playing, then it isn’t a physical game. Don’t even get me started on Nintendo’s links in a box. Perhaps we should start calling them physical DRM.

Glad to hear you’ve found welcoming places. It is unfortunately not the case for most of the community and the first step in making any kind of improvement is acknowledging the problem.

You’re welcome! I found some interesting reading while reviewing the sources so thank you, too.
