I still don’t really get it. I don’t have a TV at all, so it doesn’t matter how many other rooms I have.

No, I don’t have a TV in my bedroom.

Why does me having a living room have any bearing on that?

If you’re stuck on Windows for work or whatever, you probably don’t have rights to do that.

Running windows in a VM is still… running Windows. It’s not idealistically different to having a dedicated Windows computer. There’s nothing magical about running Linux as a host that makes Windows less evil.

God I hate that the younger generations use the word “drop” to mean both “cancel” and “release”.

Windows < 11 is legacy software and Windows > 10 is slop. Nobody should care about either.

Well I’m sure we’ve all heard stories about it happening, and my FIL had someone walking him through a “Microsoft has detected a virus on your PC” scenario one time until he fucked up and lost the connection (fortunately)

Alright Blank Reg.

Bullet dodged like Neo.

… and you’re comparing this to Windows ?

Well, let’s see. First the earth cooled. And then the dinosaurs came, but they got too big and fat, so they all died and they turned into oil.

Side note: I’d hope that by 2032, proprietary drivers would be a relic of the past.

I have some guitar tabs I posted from the mid 90s I think

I don’t remember being you

their advertising was just as bad until relatively recently. And their offers are just as bad. Like, 90% off all the time. 90% off a price they never charged and made up. It’s the same as with pizza places, where they say the pizza really costs £20 but if you have this voucher you can get it for £5! What a deal, right?

I switched from Nord to Mullvad recently and it’s much more stable on linux, and on android it’s less glitchy, and the signup process was beautiful. I’m normally very critical of software, and I was really impressed with how smooth it was.

Why would I want a calendar with my vpn subscription? It’s like bundling a barbecue with your purchase of a new jacket.

About half of my dreams are just played out like stories, with a mostly-coherent plot. Sometimes if they’re particularly TV-like I even get end credits and a theme song, but that’s rare.

The other half are about re-visiting an incredibly familiar town or building in that town (which doesn’t exist in real life as far as I’m aware).

I do get a lot of false-awakening dreams too.
