I mentioned this as a potential issue with Proton when it first started blowing up and was largely dismissed. It’s great that it works. It’s really amazing on Valve’s part what it can do and the gap it bridged. The problem is that it does NOT incentivize developers to support Linux natively. In fact, it does the exact opposite.

EDIT: For those who don’t see why this is an issue - Proton means in the eyes of developers linux users are mostly second class citizens. There are already several cases of developers pushing updates that break proton compatibility and the developers simply shrug their shoulders and move on.

That’s janky as hell, I love it.

I work for state government and even we have trouble with email reputation issues from the big orgs. It’s a pain for everyone.

The Halo 3 lobby probably said a few other things too, but let’s not repeat those here. 😂

I still use it with friends. Not because it’s private (it’s obviously not) and not because it’s good(it’s infested with ads) but because of the convenience of having the ability to send silly inconsequential videos and photos throughout the day without having to worry about that content consuming space on my device or having to go back and clean said content from my device. In that way I find it pretty convenient. That said, from a privacy standpoint it’s probably worse than most other options. Don’t use it with any expectations of privacy.

My new vehicle has remote start, but only via the app. It’s a useful feature but frustrating that my trim level doesn’t also have it available via the keyfob. Once the manufacturer ends support for my vehicle I will lose the feature out-right.

But then you have to live in satan’s armpit…

11 is GOAT. We had an ice cream freezer in the lunch room of my elementary school and I would always get that one. Cost a whole $0.50!

ITT: a lot of people trying really hard to justify their use cases for Windows.

TIL white people only exist in Midwest US.

He’s been on version 22 since I set it up back it February of this year. I don’t think a new major version had come out since then. (I actually haven’t thought to check) my plan was just to do a fresh install as needed for major updates, or when his current version stops receiving security updates since new features aren’t really a concern for him.

FydeOS might be more in line with what you need. Based on ChromeOS, but without the Google account requirements and spyware. I installed this on my dad’s PC along with setting up DNS-based Ad blocking and it’s been rock solid. If he just needs a browser, that’s basically what it is.

I just use a different browser specifically for porn.

I encourage you to look at the price of engagement rings and wedding bands, homie.

This is why commuting on a motorcycle is so nice. In this situation I’d just filter through the cars and into the turn lane.

I like how they think they’re somehow special for walking around with their laptops open. Business idiots have been doing this forever. It isn’t some new “AI coder” thing. Jane from fucking accounting does this on the way to her meetings too you morons.

14 year old me would be very impressed with the things I have in my garage, but I’m not sure he’d be impressed with a depressed man in his 30’s.

I got into an outdoors hobby. Healthier for me anyway.

The original DSi was my favorite DS model. Still have mine. It’s too small for my hands now days though.
