Same for Firefox.

Also that

Eye twitch at intentionally wrong use of they’re/their/there

I have found WiVRn to be a delight to use on Linux with my Quest headset. Works with many other wireless headsets, too. Very little issues with it playing Windows VR games on Linux.

Flatpaks are just fine. Fuck off.

This is good. Hopefully it’ll be extremely slimmed down and allow for remaining X11 applications to keep functioning.

I get where you’re coming from, but I loathe talking on the phone. I love talking to my wife, but we do that when sitting down for coffee and breakfast in the morning.

My wife and I have had our location shared with each other for years, but it’s not a “Are they cheating?” thing. I have been married for 14 years and never wonder if my wife is cheating on me. It’s just incredibly useful for seeing how far away one of us is from home to do things like plan dinner prep times, know where to look for a lost phone, etc. If you can’t trust your SO, there is something wrong that you need to address and micro-managing where they are is toxic.

Also, do yourself a favor and use something open source and/or self hosted. Home Assistant, for example, has the ability to track location data for iOS and Android devices and pin that location to a map. Don’t give your location data to corporations to be used for data mining.

Call me old fashioned, but I put it in the same bucket as a prenup: If you’re always prepping your heart and mind for a split, you’ll always have one foot out the door. Not everyone will agree with me, but that’s how I feel and it’s why I don’t have one. Find yourself someone who is ride or die, if you are looking for a lifetime partner. Don’t settle for someone you can’t trust with your life.

That said, not everyone is looking for monogamy for the rest of their life, either, and that’s OK, too.

You can just remove the “feels like” part. They were bloated and badly made.

This is neat. I’m not sure how many people are still using these GPUS…but it’s still neat.

This kind of random shit with Microsoft just blows my mind.

Google is just as bad. Look at their messaging apps. Is it Duo? No that name died and was merged into Google Meet. However, old Google Meet is…uh…Google Meet Classic? I think? And then there is/was Google Voice, Allo, Google Talk…

And people wonder why I just use and donate to apps like Signal.

Meh. That assumes that games and applications bother still supporting it when EoL for most people has passed. Good option, though.

Linux will continue to support their hardware for easily another decade.

Given that Windows 11 won’t support your device, Linux may be your only option for a supported OS.

Can’t believe anybody still uses SharePoint.

I work in a Technical Assistance Center for a networking company. Last night, while working, I got a ticket where the person kept sending troubleshooting summaries they asked ChatGPT to write.

Speedrun me not reading your ticket any%.

You don’t have to. I’m a long time Linux user and extremely well versed. I still use Mint and Debian because I’m an old fart who likes things that just work.

Not really useful if they don’t have an Android app

Honestly, they should be

Unfortunately, they all seem to be going for more money than a new 9600XT

Yeah that seems to have much more up-to-date data for the 9060XT and B580 put head to head. Thank you.
