reminds me of the last time I had to remember that dir/copy/move with backslashes. dad’s insurance ‘software’. always amazed me how computer users get stuck in a way of doing things. print mail
it really is comforting to know you can do 99% of stuff you want with PCs without a license from Microsoft. FOSS has its own headaches but at least you don’t have to wade through a PR swamp to fix stupid bugs
marketing and bean counters drag down every good idea. That and the belief all the world’s problems can be solved in one paragraph. I used to return a 5 second sleep for bad login attempts. Just to slow down the bots trying to brute force a login. video over increasingly cheap bandwidth for a screen the size of a postcard will soon be replaced with a simpler solution. This is progress. another one bites the dust.
I thank win95 lockups for pushing me into linux.

Windows 95;
bought my first Gateway PC when Windows 95 came out. Lockups every day drove me to Slackware install from a dozen floppy set I d/l’d. Mac OS 8.*/9 was no better. OS-10 brought apple back from the dead. wanted to buy stock, was/am poor
contributed a comma in some obscure Gentoo pkg to fix a compile error I had. think it was a 1 line dif. yw
actual BSoD on my win11 yesterday. a… bar?

stackoverflow.com helped me retire

LTT had no idea it even existed. not missing a thing. she should go freelance edit: just watch 10 seconds of ‘linus’. douche /rant
rip cds dvds and load to cheap thumb drives for legal backups. distribute to your friends in case you lose your copy. It’s on them if they copy your backups. vlc usually just works as a mobile->car bluetooth source. G broke theirs hoping to charge for it on YTmusic. not a dime mfrs. ha. I use HandBrake for ripping dvds->mp4s, mp3 w/e you need. many other rippers to choose from. open source forever. chrome is just google’s version of that source code. get a working version
might be okay. trust people to filter them from feeds unless blatant exploitation spam. then bye bye any improvements they might offer is probably open sourced through use of fedi libs. devs copy code all the time
sounds like you need newegg.com. I build a new PC every few years and they have most things you want. tom’s hardware usually has reviews and lists. couple sites I can’t remember help with parts compatibility. use the search https://www.newegg.com/
