  Perhaps early Windows 11 was a bit different. Plus I disabled Superfetch and BITS which would otherwise max out CPU, and when still on HDD, that too.
  Though I am not entirely sure if I also disabled something else.

  It could idle at around 5% I believe.

  Also, unused RAM is wasted RAM. Just because it’s used doesn’t mean it’s unusably full. Linux too will eat up entire RAM for caching, but it can be freed when needed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Correct Grindr Response⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  No, the hardware died. Just randomly shut down a few times until it didn’t boot nor POST. Anymore. The most it could do is spin a fan and output 5V to USB.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Correct Grindr Response⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know what you guys are talking about?
  I’ve used an old laptop with Windows 11 (just because I wasn’t supposed to) which had Core 2 Duo T7500 (upgraded from T7100), 4GB of DDR2 RAM, GeForce 8600M GT, but with an SSD rather than HDD. Pretty usable with that thing.

  Unfortunately it broke, but I think it would still be just as good.

  otherwise I fell bad for my bro

  Not sure if you meant to write “feel”, but it is too late now.
  Maybe you should get in touch 😏

  A way to destroy a friendship.

  Holy shit, that was unexpected.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone use a phone without a protective case?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I even put a case on a rugged phone. It does look a bit ridiculous.
  I have one older phone that feels really nice without case, but I too put it in one, a wallet case, because it’s a secondary device, and thus is often in worse places. Possibly even a pocket with keys.

  I’ve used phones without cases before, and never broke one. However, I did get to find out that one of them, new enough to have USB-C, had plastic camera lenses. Archos 55DC, to shame it.

  In the reply to Patreon they mentioned having some automated and manual ways of removing CSAM, plus “closely working with NCMEC”, but I have no idea what that means.
  And these statistics of resolved reports: wwww.missingkids.org/…/2024-notifications-by-ncme…

  Total number of reports of 128 resolved on average in 1.91 days. Less than half the time spent by Amazon, Google and Microsoft (for Bing).

  Is that why they call the unmodified thing “raw sewage”? Is it because it’s used in cooking?

  Hmmm… I think I Recall hearing about that somewhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gemini will now automatically summarize your long emails unless you opt out⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  In my opinion the last great was Android 7. Just getting more locked down since.

  But also it was kinda funny when manufacturers left over some of their software. I think it was ZTE which had a hidden menu to change the fucking IMEI.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gemini will now automatically summarize your long emails unless you opt out⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Unless it’s quite shitty.

  I’ve got Ulefone, and the default audio source (software) is dogshit quality. And that’s what the camera app uses, unless I use something like Open Camera where I can manually select “Unprocessed” rather than default.

  For the idea
  Default: files.catbox.moe/d2n7sg.flac
  Unprocessed: files.catbox.moe/xf9ab8.flac

  Very obvious, at least with earphones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pixar or something idk⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it was ElectroBOOM video that taught me counting to 31 on one hand, which means both are 1,023 maximum.

  10 fingers, each holding one value.
  Example:

  Finger	Value
  Left thumb	1
  Left index	2
  Left middle	4
  Left ring	8
  Left pinkie	16
  Right pinkie	32
  Right ring	64
  Right middle	128
  Right index	256
  Right thumb	512

  Together up to 1,023.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pixar or something idk⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  As you wished:

  It’s 42x24, so only 1,008 pixels which fits into 1,023.

  Well, realistically, things have changed. Without social media you get quite left out. Easily forgotten even.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fediverse for teens⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  But Mastodon isn’t Matrix. It’s not just a chat server, but regular social media.

  Who downvoted you?

  Anyway, if you have directory-based music organization, Navidrome won’t take that sadly. However, it will take m3u playlists.

  So I can just ls playlistdir/* > Playlist.m3u and get that directory as a playlist. Simple, lazy solution.
  Oh, you can also add internet radios to Navidrome.

  And one cool trick, which is also pretty good to test out Navidrome without effort, in Termux it is already in the repos, so you can just effort-free apt install navidrome, run it and play around.

  Her friend group has a group text and she wants to keep up with everyone but doesn’t want to get the ding notifications constantly.

  On Android you can disable app notifications. Some apps also allow it per group/person.
