Hmmmm, must not be American.

American here.

Yeah, you shouldn’t come here. No one should. Shits bad here. Have you heard of ICE??? No, not frozen water. The bad ICE.

Nothing in this country is worth visiting.

The way it normally boots is first it shows the dell logo, then a black screen. Then a Z at the bottom of the screen. Then the Z turns into the word Zorin, and then it boots.

The way it doesn’t boot, is the dell logo shows, then the black screen, but it just hangs there forever. The Z never comes. It just stays on the black screen before the Z.

I still get freezes. Then when I try to power off and power back on, it won’t boot. Then a day or two will go by, and it boots.

What I see time and time again are people saying “I HAVE TO use Windows at work, but I don’t use it at home”.

So, logically that means Windows is losing market share to Mac and Linux, right?

Well, no. What I see over the past 20 years is that people just stopped buying PCs for personal use.

At this point, it really feels like if you’re over 55, you’re in the minority if you own a PC. If you’re younger than 30, you’re in the minority if you own a PC.

And for 30-55 year olds, it’s simple. You grew up with PCs, so you’re used to them. Everyone else just sees it as “that thing we use at work”

So, no. People dropping microsoft from their own personal lives doesn’t mean they switch to linux. It just means they use their cell phone or tablet to browse the web. Because for most people, thats all a pc is anyways. Just a machine to browse the web on.

I’m on ZorinOS, which I’m told is very similar to Mint.

Why have windows calculator when you can have windows calculator guess what you want to calculate, get it wrong, spy on you, and use that spying to serve you targetted ads all at the same time? #innovation

Ya know, I’m not a linux “supporter” in the traditional sense. I usually find it annoying when people hijack these threads to say they use linux.

But man…even though I don’t have a clue what I’m doing in linux, I’d rather be on linux than windows 11.

Given how much energy is needed to run AI, and given how much of it Meta is running, I’d say it’s fair to say that Meta wants to sell you stuff while THEY burn the world down

Question 1) Who is…BATMAN???

“Please verify your age”

Please fuck off.

Ooooooh, what community was it?

My takeaway from this was “YoutubeTV is still a thing? I assumed that died a decade ago…”

…I want free hugs!

Glad I never had tiktok and all it’s bullshit.

No no. It’ll still be seen by thousands before it’s taken down.

Blocked in 23 states, unless you want to hand over your digital ID.

Sure. You could upload it to peer-tube, and have it be seen by a whole 11 people!

They’ll say aw Topsy at my autopsy!

How do you see that?
