  Americans just need to expedite the process

  Yes, they did. Sadly the body that’s studied the effects said the sample size (a couple thousand unemployed people) was too small… Gee, I wonder who would’ve designed the experiment in such way?

  Yeah, wtf, asking for story yet missing the point in Doom which has the simplest story of them all: demons are bad and you need to kill them to save humanity.

  I can’t really help with the topic since I don’t care for story in my shooty-shooty boom booms and prefer to get into action as soon as possible and keep at it, but I guess the Far Cry series has some story in it. Maybe skip the first one since controller support might be iffy. Also Crysis, don’t know about the latter ones but first one is great until a certain point after which it’s okay.

  Clarification: you can set YT Enhancer to only allow one video to play, but you can enable multiple playback, too

  YouTube search fixer sounds like something I need, I hate that only the first ten or so search results are actually relevant

  Just wait a month or two…

  Even then, for whatever reason, a (grantedly cheap) 3,5mm->USB-C adapter my dad bought didn’t work at all on his iPhone while it works just fine on my Android

  I guess you haven’t heard of people getting warned/banned for simply upvoting content the overlords don’t like? Or saying Luigi…

  Shit, was the alien always there? Seen the original being passed around the internet for ages and never noticed… Too horny for saurus I guess

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft tells Windows 10 users to just trade in their PC for a newer one, because how hard can it be?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I also had problems installing Win10 years ago, the problem was I had more than one drive plugged in… Took me half a day to figure that out.

  The only problem with installing Linux (pop_OS this time) was I didn’t flash my USB stick properly, so user error. Also, could be my old Kingston Datatraveler isn’t well suited for the job

  Don’t even want to think how badly installing Win11 now would break my system…

  I made the jump recently, too, after having to use W11 for my studies… Figured that the one multiplayer game I play that actually needs Windows to work (and that’s purely because the dev’s won’t enable anticheat on Linux) is not too much of a sacrifice when the alternative would be giving out the possibility to tune the OS to my liking.

  Bye bye Windows, you were “great” during XP and W7 times!
