I wish android natively has a roll back option to un-update apps... But that would be too user-friendly, I suppose.

Why can't we just do it like the rest of the world where the IRS (or equivalent) does it and you just sign off on it being correct? They should already have all the data they need from corporate quarterly filings.

Well, shit.

If you uninstall is there any guarantee that the kernel level anticheat gets removed, too, or are they in there forever?

Nah, you burned that bridge, Sony. I'm not coming back.

We lived in a house with a bunch of roommates when we got our dog, and at some point "fuck off" became "go lie down on your bed and get outta my space"... So now if "go lie down" isn't taking, then "fuck off" works...

It's so quiet. 🥹

IT professional here, can confirm, Linux is superior and my choice of os.

.... despite my work being mostly Windows Server.

Also: IT professionals usually have some experience and/or start out with Help Desk (hell), where you quickly learn what is and is not a good issue report.

I can't understand why someone would want to do that. Maybe it's my help desk and IT upbringing, but for the few software tools and things I've made, if you chat me without filing a bug/issue on GitHub, I'm not gonna help you.

I'm trying to figure out what to buy now because my TV from 20 years ago finally died. Can't find anything that's essentially a large monitor.

Having professionally terminated fiber, that shit is nasty and hazardous in a way copper will never be.

The little fiber bits can be razor sharp, you have to be careful of the naked fiber end, because it can get into your skin like a splinter, only it is clear, nearly invisible, can shatter if grabbed too hard, and is invisible to MRI and X-RAY scans...

They did, and we're really up front about it being an opt-in thing, if I remember correctly. Might have started that easy with Microsoft, too. But they can't resist enshitifying.

This is written as if the election were still in the future. We're going in, and it's going to be hell. This is the loadout selection screen before the match starts. We need to be thinking of ways we can bolster our communities and defend ourselves.

Ah man, same. Thought I'd give it a go after reading about if from Cory...

Honestly, for what I search for, DDG is sufficient, and it's not gonna hassle me about subscriptions.

What I'd really like to find is something like a pihole for search, where you have your blocklist, cache of things you've searched already (your own mini search engine?), and then a fallback engine (DDG, bing, Google, whatever) for things it doesn't already know.

I dunno. Search and AI botshit is everywhere, and it's gonna keep getting worse. Self-hosting tools seems to be the only way to take control back.

Feels good to finally be part of the 1%

Oof. This liberal individualist thinking is fairly ineffective.

Organize your workplace, raise class consciousness, support your community, and educate everyone.

I, too, love my old Brother laser printer. Their website is absolute garbage though. I don't know what they did to it, but it is just slow as hell.

Definitely spend the extra $10 for duplex printing or regret it for the rest of your life.

(Seriously, why even make non-diplex printers?)

Health!

Yep, and if it becomes a frequent request, add clarification to the readme / wiki / documentation.

Also, if you push folks towards issues, then they become indexable by search engines! So even if you have a solved problem you can at least find that... Discord? It's a black hole.

PopOS. It was the easiest to get my Nvidia GPU set up and plays all the games that I wanna play without too much pain. I've been meaning to try something like Arch with KDE, something like what my SteamDeck is using... but I don't wanna fuck around setting up Arch.
