This Windows 11 Start menu change is now coming to Windows 10
  • i just set up virtualbox so i could install windows on it and use some simulation programs i need for school projects. what an unbelievable fight it was. first i can't download the .iso file because their website blocks me. fortunately i found an old w10 iso file on my external. got pissed when i realized i need to use edge to download firefox. takes like 2 hours to get everything adjusted the way i like and all crap out of my way. get MAS, damn thing killed windows boot somehow. start all over again. same thing again, only then i realized it was the activation that kills it. guess i have to use light mode. oh and setting up onedrive and office apps is a whole story for another day.

    edit: it wasn't MAS, it was just failed windows updates. booted up with low resolution enabled from safemode settings in repair menu...

    Anyone else getting bounced from mainstream websites with Mullvad VPN?
  • yes, every damn website. changing server to another country may help. i noticed ireland is pretty immune to this but that server is down quite often.

  • my fear is that openai is analyzing everything you do on the phone, not so much the chatbot. but then again i bet apple and google are already doing exactly that. all the forced AI stuff just irritates me like hell. and i live in EU area so sideloading is possible. i haven't looked much into how much open source apps are available though.

    Driverless semis could be months away
  • one got confused and stopped in an intersection, then decided to perform system updates and got stuck in a bootloop. the rest are behind it.

  • well yeah but i have to admit, the pink color is awesome. if it didn't have to get that damn chatgpt integration, i would ditch android. been on the edge for a while.

    What browser do yall use?
  • i don't use brave but i tried it once when i learned that it's open source. google was not the default search and telemetry was off by default. also i don't think it auto updates on linux because updates are handled by system updater.

    [SOLVED] Have you ever experienced stuttering in a game if you receive a message in a desktop messaging app during gameplay?
