One big happy family.
  • I've been using Pop for years, I just feel like its always worked so well for me and never given me any major gripes. Web browsing, playing a few basic games, editing documents and even recently setting up another home server with it for media streaming with Jellyfin.

    I'm a big advocate for any OS which works well out the box and is mostly hands off once configured!

    If PopOS isn't your thing you'll find it eventually 🙂

    Windows Security Remediation Incomplete
  • This will almost certainly be a false positive, its a heuristics(I think that's the correct term) based detection, basically just matches certain characteristics of files that have been related to that trojan.

    These days Defender has exceptional real time malware scanning capabilities, it often picks up stuff as you download it or even as it executes. If this was a detection of an existing file, its very likely a false positive.

    What part of your life could be improved with software?
  • I had this idea for a browser extension when I'm doing research.

    Basically, its like a panel on the side for writing notes but also has a button to screenshot the current open page, then maybe a button to copy the contents so I can paste it elsewhere to a document.

    It sounds super basic, but I just want something so that when I'm researching I don't have to keep jumping between windows when researching.

    ‘Hold them captive’: Australian billionaire boss aims to end staff going out for coffee
  • This is all about building your personal life around work, this guy knows that current WFH initiatives are giving people better flexibility for work to fit around their personal lives.

    The things he's offering to basically hold his employees captive for the day, are quite decent. I just don't see them being attractive to people long term.

    What's an impulse purchase you've made and it turned out to be awesome?
  • This makes me feel so much better! Its kind of one of my thoughts, playing the steam deck in bed, those evenings where you don't really want to do much but also aren't fully ready to go to sleep!

    You've definitely given me some reassurance 🙂

  • So I kind of impulsively bought a Steam Deck OLED this weekend, I hadn't really done much research and I haven't really played any games in about 15 years.

    Now I have to wait for it to be delivered and, I'm worried this is something I'll use a few times and forget about it.

    What's something you impulsively bought and fell in love with?

    YouTube RSS...
  • This sounds very similar to the NewPipe app which I use for watching YT. Maybe check out their Github for some inspiration?

    Joe Biden ends re-election campaign
  • 11th hour? The nomination for the party hasn't even happened, there is around 5 months to the polls, this is definitely not the 11th hour.

    Windows PCs crashing worldwide due to CrowdStrike issue
  • So true, this really highlights the risk of updates impacting critical systems vs critical systems being exposed to critical vulnerabilities. Its a real balancing act.
