Yes, like gzip and gunzip

Yes. It technically does improve accuracy (homophone correction, for example) but the occasional errors are worse and way less obvious.

Like with a slowly rolling unbraked car: Don’t take photos if you can prevent the crash

Edit: No swop? 🫪

Thanks but the vertical categories could be way clearer if the logos were not strictly left-aligned

It counts if you use it to visit a website participating in stats collection. Maybe excluded if the device has a touchscreen and requests the mobile site (I haven’t used a Steam Deck and don’t know its default browser’s config)

I made a pull request today! It didn’t get merged but I think I can use the fork on my own. How do I switch Firefox a local PDF.js without recompiling the whole browser?

KDE Connect is also a control option

That’s the thing: it’s one of the few laptops you can buy without RAM and disk (of course only usable if you have these parts already)

Better than a headline leaving out the important bits

What is oenisn? Misspelled Genshin? Open-ish? Leninism? Bosnian? Penis?

I already use unattend scripts for the rest of my family’s Windows shit… I add irm https://christitus.com/win | iex at the end too so I can then install cool stuff

And no, I’m not upgrading any Windows 10 stuff rn

Drive letters? (Yes, they are stupid and don’t work with MTP but I won’t explin /dev/ to him)

We’ve been using Classic Shell since Day 1 of course. I modded it to quit qBittorrent when Mom opens the Shutdown dialog* (yes, she always opens that awful window) because that takes the longest to terminate. I’ll use it plus Explorer Patcher on 10, a semi-transparent taskbar without blur is so handy

* Classic Shell Start Menu can run arbitrary and predefined commands from buttons but not both at once. The Shutdown dialog can only be triggered with a predefined CSSM command or JS script so I’m using a VBS script (unlike BAT or JS, it can run silently) that runs the JS script and taskkill command.

Our family PC still has 8.1 (parents really don’t like change and Firefox got security updates until recently). I think I’ll upgrade it to 10 when I have time, the amount of debloat required to keep it sane is manageable as opposed to 11. Mom could handle mildly riced XFCE Linux with Firefox and our legal copy of Office 2007 under Wine but dad uses Total Commander and won’t use anything other than drive letters.

RAM, especially… Very high for sure

Someone should add -b, -t and -w flags to the Archinstall script

Some banks issue stickers for phones without NFC. It’s another physical card but contactless only and very thin (probably with an aluminum strip antenna).

Yup, and they didn’t even try to hide it. The etymology is literally bra + vixen (female fox)

…PC meaning Pokémon Center, not Personal Computer?

Edit: Apparently not. Wtf
