I want to like Tumbleweed, but every time I check for updates there’s like a gigabyte of them. I am probably going to switch to Leap at certain point. I don’t understand what’s the point of having latest stuff anyway. Unless you are gaming on your device I guess.

“Hey, wanna check out my credit card?”

I enjoy YouTube Music, because it is much snappier and better than Spotify, but there are some things that just make no sense, and I wonder how are they not spotted by not even a single dev.

If you happen to see blue screen on Windows, it’s most likely a hardware or driver problem. It is not Windows 9x days when a user program could take down whole OS with ease.

I’ve seen one recently, when I kicked my computer by an accident.

I don’t want to be that guy, because I still hate Windows, but… most people who have these problems just didn’t set up updates properly. Well, that, or they never restart their computer.

One of the first things I do while migrating user to a new PC (or just giving one for newly employed person) is that I disable all useless Microsoft shit automatically starting up in the task manager.

You can still use the classic version of Outlook, that comes with latest Office. It is literally called “Outlook (classic)” in the start menu.

Reminder that you don’t have to do anything at all in life, and these who day otherwise are wrong.

Writing comments in technical English is easier that saying a simple English sentence in real life for me, lol.

For most of these you don’t need AI, just basic Photoshop skills.

Sure, but remember that there’s sometimes a scientific term used incorrectly, but it’s so widespread it has non-scientific definition in dictionary. Although thinking that insects are not animals is indeed stupid.

I’d accept paywalls If I could pay for a ‘package’ where I have access for all these paywalled websites and each gets money proportional to how often I’ve used them. There’s no way I am going to pay for all these separately.

But there’s no such thing, so I just block ads, and whenever I see a paywalled website I just close it.

Same for Ubisoft Launcher.

I don’t know if that was a near death experienced, but one time I have nearly collapsed when commuting on a bus, after I drank 5 cups of coffee. My blood pressure went through the roof.

It also made me think some things in my life.

It’s a huge deal for hardcore fans, but I am overall against these practices, since they are just illegal, period.

There are a lot of fangames that contain regions and their Pokemon from original games, with some enhancements. You could try these.

That’s probably something a person who has no clue about Pokemon could say. You underestimate how many mechanics older games contain, since like half of them are not obvious for casual players. Although I am not sure about gens newer than IV (Diamond and Pearl is the most recent I’ve played), since I haven’t played them. But most people agree that the best games were around that period (Gen IV, or V), and they only become worse over the years.

You are very dedicated.

I am Polish, so it’s not that hard for me :) But I’ve made a huge mistake of not learning where to put an accent (ударение) on each word, so my pronunciation might be way off for some words. Also I try way too hard to make sentences that make sense in Polish, but in Russian they might sound weird. Lack of practice, I guess. But I definitely see progress over time when I talk to native speakers (Ukrainian refugees mostly).
