- Comment on Microsoft is quietly installing the Copilot app on Windows PCs 1 month ago:
I just did a fresh install on someone’s computer and it was my first experience with 11. Nothing about that OS is quiet. Copilot auto started with a huge side panel after uninstalling it 3 fuckin times. Everything i removed from the suggested apps came right back after a restart/install. Every setting had a nag popup asking if i was sure or wanted to try Xxx. I disabled shit with powershell commands and an update later it was all back.
I had no idea it was that bad. None.
- Comment on Pokémon Co. Is Now DMCAing Years Old Videos Showing Pokémon Modded Into Other Games 1 month ago:
The original DMCA wording was very very harsh when it came to frivolous fillings. Hopefully it won’t shock you to believe that it’s rarely enforced and almost never enforced for large Corpos.

I’m at like 300/10 and it’s miserable. I’d gladly go back to 100 down if it means i could also get 100 up. I’d settle for 50 up at this point. Wife can barely stream her Spin/Workout classes.

- Comment on Bitmagnet Allows People to Run Their Own Decentralized Torrent Indexer Locally 2 months ago:
I ran this for about a month when it was first linked on here. It’s pretty impressive. I did no performance tuning. Size of the install got a little worrying but i think there’s a lot of options to adjust this and i was not ready to put this on block storage yet.
I’ll probably give it another shot later down the road.

I spent way way way too many hours playing D2. Path of Exile is a great choice to fill that gap. Just do homework for a little bit before diving in if you give it a shot. Leveling builds and def use a guide.
