More and more happy I left Windows behind a couple of months ago. I’d been on Windows since version 3. I dual-booted for a few weeks, then took the plunge. Windows is completely gone from my life.
I’m on Ubuntu at the moment, but I’m planning a move to LMDE, I think that’s a better distro for me.
I’m expecting her to be revealed as a villain at some point. She was born with a silver spoon, there are skeletons in closets, and she knows it. Time will tell.
Wow. I hope, for Chevy’s sake, it’s just software glitches that can be quickly solved with some updates.
I’m hoping by the time I need a new car, this insanity will have passed, allowing me to skip it. It’s like everyone skipped Windows Vista.
Good one, Cora. Next time you see Barrett, try it out on him.
So many people assuming The Devil would answer honestly.
“Wessles.” FTFY
There are real nudes of me floating around the internet, and I’m fine with it.
I’ve been with Windows forever, since version 3. I’m old.
These past few months I’ve been trying Ubuntu, and it’s fine for everyday use, browsing and file management. And, LibreOffice has been my office suite for years, so no problem there–I don’t demand much from that.
But, graphics applications are barely there. Blender is fine. Inkscape is so-so, but I just discovered recently that it doesn’t keep track of object rotation, so there is no simple way to set the rotation back to zero. Corel Draw gave up Linux support years ago, or that would be my go-to. I haven’t tried LibreDraw yet, but I don’t have much hope for it. Gimp is, eh.
I haven’t tried playing FO4 or Starfield yet, though. I’ve just been switching back to Windows for that.
I don’t mind using Terminal, it reminds me of MS-DOS days, but I don’t see myself ever become proficient at it.
I won’t be getting Windows 11, I’ve decided that. But I see that I’ll likely need to give up a lot to make that stand.
Man, y’all a bunch a grumpies.
This technology doesn’t hinge on what we here believe or predict. It will happen or it won’t.
We could speculate on how cool it would be, and how it could be used if it happens, instead of pooh-poohing it.
Many readers are overly sensitive these days. If you use things like a period on the end of your sentences, and don’t include emojis, then anything you say will be called out as “hostile” by some people.
Also, I’ve noticed many people ignore qualifiers in speech. If you use qualifiers thoughtfully, having them ignored by the reader can lead to miscommunication. I think the fact that so many people have used them without thought has led to a blindness for qualifiers. OTH, not including qualifiers can make us sound authoritative and even arrogant to some people.
For instance, in my first sentence, above, I said “Many readers…”, and “…things like…”, and “…by some people.” If you ignore those qualifiers, what I said takes on a very different tone.
Can’t win for losing.
This is common in old houses. I don’t know if that’s the case here. Houses built before indoor plumbing would be upgraded, the kitchen would get water, and a new bathroom would be built next to the kitchen where the new plumbing was. There would be no water or other bathroom in the entire house.
My grandparent’s house was built like this, they still had the old water hand pump in the front yard, and they had an outhouse until the plumbing was upgraded.
This is it. They’re a bit more expensive, but no BS, and they’re made to run 24/7, so maybe a little more durable, too.
