Well... I've changes genders now... Instead of being a Systems administrator who builds networks and infrastructure. I'm a redheaded boss bitch destroying robot dinosaurs with a bow and arrow.

Ok, guys. I'm reading some of these replies which are saying the amount of outrage is out of proportion. I have to disagree with that. I don't want an AI running on my PC that is monitoring and learning about my shit. I didn't want that data saved even locally, let alone the monetization of that data. I don't want to be paying for power of a device that is turning me into someone else's paycheck.

Can you turn it off? I believe you can. But I also believe that doing it manually would be incredibly annoying since that does go with a lot of past practice. I also get it would reactivate itself after major updates, like how Edge keeps reinstalling.

Are there other solutions to my Microsoft issues, yes. Chris Titus Tech comes to mind.

But overall, the Windows ecosystem does not feel right to me anymore. Could other people still use it, yes. Am I going to stop them, not intentionally. But my Arch gaming PC runs games better than the same machine running Windows. I've always entertained the idea of a full switch, still have a Windows 11 dual boot and haven't officially done it yet, but with this the moment feels right. At least for me, hopefully you can understand that.

Take your upvote and gtfo. Lol

Doesn't Odo lose his *surprising ability for part of the show? I imagine he had to start wearing clothes.

Edit: *shapeshifting... I feel like autocorrect made the sentence better. I like it and it kind of works so I'm leaving it.

Idk, I don't think you can recycle Trump. That little shit belongs in the trash.

Okay, that looks like gnome-keyring.

I'm order for it to login automatically, it needs to be named login the same as your username(that is kwallet) and have the same password.

Then when you launch electron apps, it's already unlocked and doesn't need a password.

If you need a GUI, try seahorse.

Don't know what distro you in, but you can get some intel here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GNOME/Keyring#PAM_step

Questionable alternative solution: remove the password from the wallet. I don't run one, but I've got drive encryption and rarely if ever save passwords.

Getting downvotes because you didn't read the article. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That name, is MEGA.

I have... Moved my gaming over to it... Admittedly better since I don't play anything like cod or bf. But you can keep a dual boot just in case. Still plays horizon zero dawn, fallen Jedi, borderlands 4(probably better on Linux), and Doom Eternal. Also Rocket League.

If you're truly interested, reach out to the community. We got your back.

This is Linux memes, sir. What works on Windows does not work here.

...So is sailfish... But ultimately I think the reason they went with it is that it is much more secure than an android phone as it ensure your privacy is respected. You can still run android applications, but you don't have to worry about Google apps spying on your activity. Similar to Graphene OS where you can actually manage the permissions of Google apps rather than allowing it to have unfettered access to everything. Or heck, you don't even need to install any Google application to be able to use either Graphene or Sailfish. To me, they are just better ecosystems. And heck, sailfish isn't the only one. There is also postmarket os, Mobian, Manjaro ARM, Arch ARM, Ubuntu Touch, PureOS, and many more.

You just changed my life.

I like the la alias.

Disagree. DC current will seek the path of least resistance, and will not go down the pole.

I'm unsure if this is an apartment, but I would start by reaching out to the landlord and say your lights have been acting up whenever they are using it. Maybe say your electric bill has been higher, maybe stage that a little bit by simply leaving a light on for a month. Have them inspect the floor damage too.

Once they leave, I would install cannibalize a power cable, plug it into the wall and hook the hot wire up to one of the screws.

The benefit of using AC, is that it is less likely to take the path of least resistance and travels as waves back and forth, doesn't necessarily matter if they are grounded or not, they will feel it, likely marginally lower since it is also going into everything their 8ft pole is touching.

...I don't know why I'm on a villain arc this morning.

Is... Is this a Trump meme?

People seem to keep forgetting the past or choose to ignore it and continue another cycle of the status quo. 

Hahaha. Remembering the past is the whole reason I want nothing to do with Trump. He's not interested in helping the economy. Let's start with his tax policies. Do you remember when he gave tax breaks to companies instead of the American people. He specifically said that it would trickle down. It was that garbage to help his own friends. But yeah, let's move on to his monetary policy. He printed an obscene amount of money. Now that is negative at first glance, but you have to understand what that did to the fed and the purpose of economic policy. Long story short the fed is supposed to respond to economic changes to support the American people and they are typically prepared for emergencies like covid. But let's test this back to what happens if Trump prints money. The problem with printing money to such a degree is twofold. For one, it is the lazy approach. Instead of trying to figure out who in the market needs help and how to get it to them, he just decided to lazily print money. And the fed is not out of here yet, printing money to such a degree took away the safety net that the fed typically uses to respond to economic down turns. Long story short Trump literally set us up for the inflation that we are still experiencing. Let's not even go into the Supreme Court Justices he elected who overturned decades old precedent literally against the will of the majority of Americans. And let's also leave out project 2025 which is literally a plan to disturb the democracy we have in America. Sure he SAYS he knows nothing about it, but 140 at a minimum of his staff helped to write it. JD Vance himself wrote a forward for it. And it is a plan that doesn't care about the American people, is simply a plan to disturb the wonderful democracy that we have by forcing as many people as possible to do what he wants without insight into what AMERICANS want. Yeah we'll leave that out too. And then we are going to leave out the fact that this guy literally said that he would be a dictator and attack his political opponents. And let's leave out the fact that I am a Democrat. This guy is going to lose the election because everyone remembers the past and knows the effect of Trump in the office. Harris will win the election because literally anyone would be better than Trump. Seriously it's not even a challenge for her to win this, Republicans had the opportunity to pick someone they thought would be better for the job yet didn't. It's like they are not even trying and instead trying to setup an insurrection. The American people remember the status quo that Trump himself supported which was policy designed to increase the wealth of the wealthy and eliminated the wealth of the middle and lower class. Also I can't believe that a conservative would say liberals and progressives are the ones pushing the status quo. That's literally what being a conservative is about. I'm going to write literally the first result on conservative from duck duck go. "Favoring traditional views and values; tending to oppose change." Tending to oppose change. This is literally about maintaining the status quo. But let's go ahead and talk about the status quo and the electoral college. Let's eliminate it. Let's ensure that all American citizens have an equal say in who is elected president. On its face this idea looks and sounds good. Hell the electoral college is the result of a months long compromise between those who wanted a democratic popular vote and those who wanted the president to be elected by the Senate. Now I think all parties today will agree the president should not be chosen by the Senate, we are a democracy/republic. So let's remove the electoral college. Republicans claim to have the silent majority so let's eliminate gerrymandering AND let's ensure that the people's voice is heard all done with just eliminating the electoral college.

Love it. I love that you went to Lemmy for tips. A side note, while I love it, I'm curious to see what it would look like with a bushy unibrow now that you've added the bushier mustache.

Just hit Ctrl+Alt+Del.

For PC, I would personally suggest looking for a controller with two things. Number 1, Hall effect sensors. Eliminate stick drift entirely with that alone. Number 2, replaceable joysticks. If the sticks last a long time, then the controller is expected to last longer. I just think having a way to replace work rubber is a good thing. Personally, I have loved Gulikit. My controller also happens to work on switch as well. Here is a link of you are interested in checking it out. Note that that is the controller I have, but you should definitely look at the different models. My controller has lasted about 3 years now. I used to go through PS5 controllers in about 6 months.

Oh great... Look at the GNUguy. Here he is walking around all GNUde. He's gonna come over demanding GNUggets of wisdom. And I'm just gonna say it, hell GNUpe, leave me alone to compile my thoughts in peace.

This comment was purely for fun, isn't even funny, and frankly laughable. But it seemed like a good time for some word play. ✌️
