In all fairness paranoia is important in things like finding someone trying to slip a backdoor into xz. Going by the most recent Windows 11 update, Microsoft seems to be “we’ll fix it in production”.
Christ a bit of paranoia would do modern internet users good, I still remember when it wasn’t normal to have every single piece of identifying information online and readily available for anyone.
Isn’t that pretty much a thing of the past? This meme is maybe true for Facebook, but most sub 40 people don’t use that anyway and the “public diary” days are also pretty over. Sure, you can stitch together a lot from geolocating Instagram posts and LinkedIn information, but it’s not like it’s the searchable database Facebook was in 2012.
Data brokers getting a kick out of this one.
Hahaha Windows users having sense
have no idea how to install another OS
Why would i need to? I tried Linux and it’s mental. Took 20 minutes to edit mount settings on my hdd. fstab, gnome disks, and whatnot. Meanwhile Windows is: here’s your files bro, whenever you want. And don’t even get me started with the countless problems i encountered to install apps, edit hdd permissions, configuring panels and more.
I need to try windows again. I remember it being more complex than Linux. I switched just so things were easier. Cygwin! Registry editing! Getting a Microsoft degree just to edit my desktop menus. I didn’t just sit there and install my programs like a good kid and actually wanted to, you know, do things with my computer. And boy did windows hate me for it.
I’m hoping modern IDEs or just having Linux on standby would make Windows simple enough to use.
I think the real thing we need to do to attract windows users is have tuxkart installed by default.
Or maybe stop treating it like a religion that needs converts and only appeals to conspiracy theorists in the long run when people realize the lies they were fed about it.
What lies were people fed about Tuxcart?
I’m a windows user and I don’t deny anything. I’m just too lazy to switch to Linux and I need the full functionality of Teams for my job.
The Linux Teams app works. I’m not sure what is missing other than MS abandoning dev on it
For one thing, you can’t make break-out rooms in Linux, which is something I need to do all the time.
Crazy, that the web app is missing this, when the windows app is just webView as well…
Linux
Have time to make everything work before doing anything
Also I live in a river in Egypt bitch, guess which one first one guess doesn’t count and you can’t repeat guesses and only possible answers allowed…
Also there’s a camera recording everything I’m doing at all times that’s somewhat accessible to hackers.
First guess is “the Nile” second guess is “denial” , third guess is Sinai. Also, what the hell is that, an AI catcher?
I don’t know man. I was really bored and being silly and sucking at it.
The idea is that there’s only one river in Egypt. The Nile and denial was what I was going for, yes obviously, but that’s not a river in Egypt. Egypt the denial isn’t just play on words and then I kept on going because that’s how I communicate
