Right, but none of that is enshitification or contradicts that 7 was an improvement over vista in most every way. As you stated, there were numerous kernel improvements going to 7, as well as improvements on locking logic, memory access and (let’s not ignore the most obvious) driver support. The two operating systems were very similar, but saying there are no major differences other than aesthetic is not accurate. There were less major differences than xp > vista or 7 > 8, but it was a bit more than just aesthetics.

Also, fuck Server 2016. All my homies hate Server 2016…

Heh, I’m a windows sysadmin, so I use them often enough to know it from memory. I’m almost entirely Linux at home these days as well

Ncpa.cpl > right click > properties and go from there is my main method.

Otherwise, Win+X > G (devmgmt.msc) and look at the network adapter in device manager

Other than the win+x chord, that works on just about every version I have to touch

but if she did, I must have done something awful to deserve it.

I had that happen once with a former friend, and she shut her mouth awfully quick when I responded “yeah, or maybe it was what I was wearing”. Granted, she’s a rape survivor, but it baffles me how she basically used the same dismissal she dealt with against me. At least it helped her realize how stupid she was being, but still, damn.

Vista to 7

enshitification

Lol, lmao even

7 was better than vista in just about every way.

Too bad epic is just trash and lacks basic functions that should be standard for any competent storefront. I used it for a free game once a few years ago and I couldn’t even play the game when my Internet died after I’d already played it.

Nothing like being so mad a shit service giving you a free product that you go and purchase the same product later from a real games store that had basic functionality.

I hate how the settings app is taking over control panel entries to make them worse and show me the original control panel window after going down 3 levels because the stupid fucks can’t design UI for shit.

Thankfully, you can still get to a lot of them if you know the name of the control panel applet.

Yeah… The Iran war is why the bubble will pop… Damned Iran destabilizing the very healthy AI market!!1!

It’s a bondage thing, so the car will lock him in and set itself on fire.

Tell me when he WASN’T like that

You cannot reliably get the URL from an IP, there’s no direct mapping, especially with shared hosting.

So if they were going to do an attack like this, they wouldn’t do anything like the DH attack you’re talking about, they’d have a custom CA in the browser’s SSL root store. That root cert means they can generate a certificate for any website you visit, and that custom root cert would be how they decrypt your traffic.

Afaik there isn’t a current attack on proper DH key pairings, but you can’t block the custom certificate path at the browser level without some serious server side work/client side JS to validate

Make a crypto wallet add on. Make a VPN with crypto payment channel settled once a week.

Go use brave if you want to use a crypto trash browser

Another vote for borg, I use a script and cron on the systems that aren’t in my proxmox host to trigger it and write to my NAS. There are windows GUIs for it, and you could also use WSL to run it.

But imo, backups should always be push, not pull. Makes it much easier to manage from my experience

Posting scammy Amazon links feels like cheating when having these discussions, but I kinda get where they’re coming from. The fact that people can try to sell a laptop with only 64gb disk is absolutely mental to me, because that’s not even enough to let the BASE OS run normally and update reliably. And that’s before you start doing anything on it.

Never really interacted with their content before Subnautica, and based on Below Zero, Subnautica may be the only thing of theirs I play.

Good to know it’s still good. I just saw two episodes and got disappointed

Sealab is great! That show (and ATHF) got me into mc chris

the Xtacles

You got my hopes up that there was a frisky dingo spinoff show…
