I always feel sorry for this T-Rex. Haven’t seen a bad joke from it yet. 😄
- Comment on A great disturbance in the Fediverse 3 weeks ago:
I am doing that for friends and family. For now Windows is the default in Grub. Most are trying out Linux and like it.

I find your lack of faith disturbing. You can install Windows 11 anyways.
Be careful not to choke on your aspirations.

True. That makes things even worse!
- Comment on Italian style pizza 4 weeks ago:
If they have to label it “100% real cheese,” what does that say about what’s normally in there? Not exactly building consumer trust here.

- Comment on End of 10 - Windows ten is ending. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again? 1 month ago:
A number of the questions are impossible for “regular users” to answer. 32 bit or 64 bit system? Isolated spaces?
Just recommend Ubuntu or Mint. That’s it. We can figure out other distros later if necessary.

For a proper plate of pasta you should at least get +40. If you cooked it yourself maybe even +1 skill point. If you fed someone, “you are now friends”.

- Comment on Windows 11 is closing a loophole that let you skip making a Microsoft account 2 months ago:
Makes sense. Would packaging like Flatpak or AppImage be an option? Or just make sure it runs with Wine? Probably all not that straightforward.
- Comment on Windows 11 is closing a loophole that let you skip making a Microsoft account 2 months ago:
Same here.
Game performance on Linux isn’t always the best. So I’ll keep a Win10 around.
Are Linux ports of games so hard to do? Genuine question. I am not a games dev.

- Comment on Signal President Meredith Whittaker calls out agentic AI as having ‘profound’ security and privacy issues 3 months ago:
Can’t see anything I disagree with in her statements. Imo she’s spot on. The near future looks even bleaker now.
- Comment on Digital Fingerprinting: Google launched a new era of tracking worse than cookie banners | Tuta 3 months ago:
Sure. You can still be profiled, though. That can open doors for discrimination or other unsavory agendas. One also loses a measure of anonymity. Users don’t clearly see how and know that they are tracked, meaning there’s a loss of transparency.
It’s not just about ads.

Neither well protect you truly from fingerprinting, sadly.

- Comment on Manjaro is experimenting with **opt-out telemetry | Hacker News (More like op-out spying) 7 months ago:
I’ve found that some people use Linux just to be apart of the “cool tech kids” on the internet. They don’t understand how to use a CLI… I hope that’s true. If Linux got this far to make PC life possible for the cool kids, I say welcome every single one of then.

You either spend your life really well or you have way too much time in your hands.
Either way I read your post with happy curiosity. 🙂
- Comment on What do you like/dislike about lemmy? 7 months ago:
Well, I completely disagree! Taking things seriously is the only way to have meaningful conversations. If we don’t challenge each other’s views, how will we ever grow and learn? We need the “battleground of ideas”!

I love Vivaldi. An sad it’s Chromium. Wish Firefox would take a page out of Vivaldi’s features book and innovation approach.
