All operating systems suck ass. There are problems and issues with all of them. It’s the same argument for programming languages. Now it’s the same argument when it comes to what brand of vehicle Ford or Chevy.
Don’t get hyper focused on a brand, on a label. Simply use what’s best for you and your needs.
Pwsh 7.x works very well in Linux. Haven’t got any snags.
Yep. Having to have requirements that doesn’t flow with people very well and requiring constant updates, people WILL find shortcuts. In the office, I’ve seen sheets of paper with the password written down, I’ve seen sticky notes, I’ve seen people put them in notepad/word so they could just copy paste.
This is made worse, because you have to go out of your way for a password manager, which means you need to know what that is. And you need a good one because there has been (and I’m going to generalize here) problems with some password managers in the past. And for work, they have to allow a password manager for that to even be an option. Which you then end up with this security theater.
You have to use a Windows desktop at home.

My car insurance has doubled in less than 8 years. But don’t worry, it has less coverage too! Oh, but I’ll get a teeny tiny discount if I let them install a lowjack!
I personally agree. I think it’s being somewhat overhyped. If step one is physical access to get things rolling… like for sure some machines are in more public areas than others. But for me, someone would have to break into my house first, then access my machine, just to run exploits later. The exploit is pretty massive, but I think needs to be tempered with “first they need physical access”. Because physically controlling machines has always been number 1 for security.
Yep.
I came here to make a ‘my router uses BSD btw’ joke.
PfSense!
They’re not even all at the same angle… 😫
I’ll just stick with Tile. Tons of people already and it works. This article really didn’t do a fine point of showcasing the pros and cons of different options.
My plan is either soon the lotto or die before retirement. Now, I’ve been in a corporate job for nearly 2 decades, putting money in a 401k and Roth IRA. But given the rate that the value of the dollar is just tanking and the cost of everything is skyrocketing, I honestly figure everything I saved will be worthless. I’ve had my AC off for months at this point, turned it off towards the end of winter early spring. The electric company is telling me that I’m at best on par with some of my neighbors with other neighbors using less than half. Insurance for the car is going up. I love when I ask about why are my rates so high, they blame other drivers and somehow that’s my problem. In 2017 my bill was $335. 7 years later it’s up to $634. Same vehicle, no accidents. $100 for groceries does not go very far anymore. I’m pretty sure there was a picture on Lemmy just the other day showing someone with a receipt buying the same stuff and it was like three times more now than it was just a few years ago.
Use one of those inflation calculators and between 2010 and 2024 we’re at 44%.
I still have more than two decades to go before my supposed retirement date. And I have no faith in our economy.
I want to throw out Mario Bro 3, Tetris, Dr Mario, and Sonic Mania. Just pick up and go, no long term commitment, always fun solo but you can add a friend anytime. Simple but rewarding game play loop.
This is a common, well known, well documented problem. Before Lemmy or was a regular subject on Reddit. Pretty sure every Pixel has had this problem (though I’m not 100% on that)
You probably meant motorcycle helmets My mind immediately went to Avengers Endgame. Everyone removing their helmet everytime they had anything to say… Was an awful direction
Probably not popular opinion, but pwsh (powershell). It’s got a lot of tooling built in and means I don’t have to learn a different tool just because I’m in a different system.
School might be over, but your education never stops.
When I graduated highschool, we didn’t have the resources we have today. You can freely learn a language anytime you want. Find out interesting maths they didn’t teach you in school, details about the world you live in you might not know (architecture, history, of just why things are one way in one nation vs another).
There are so many fantastic YouTube channels. Here’s a list of channel I’ve subscribed to that I think are with it. There a few programming ones in there too. And this doesn’t even cover the channels that showed me how to repair my AC unit, or how to repair my washing machine.
If this lost is to long, than 3 channels I recommend highest is Tom Scott, SmarterEveryDay, and Steve Mould.

A single up vote seems inadequate for the amount of work you put in. But it is all that I have to offer.
I did it on my phone, so it’s not great. But it might help show the letters.
I’ve actually seen that had no idea what it was!
I’ve experienced stuff like this.
I think the last time I tried being above and beyond type of host, had a bunch of people coming over for a big weekend. I thought I do something really special and make steaks. But this wasn’t just going to be like any grilled steak no no no. These steaks were going to be prepped the night before and then sous vide. But before I even started this plan I reached out to everyone and said what I was planning to do and ask if there were any issues with it, any requests, etc. I describe to everyone and great detail what I was going to make. Not one person said anything other than the “sounds good”.
If you’re unfamiliar with sous vide the short of it is it takes a long time to cook. Generally it’s measured in hours I’d say. As such I need to cook all of the steaks at the same temperature for the same amount of time I don’t have the setup at home to do individual orders.
One of the individuals once they got here, asked if I could make them a hamburger instead. Like I was a fucking restaurant.
And another one slathered it with ketchup without even trying it without. Claimed it was overcooked and dry. 🤨
Thankfully everyone else thoroughly enjoyed their perfect steaks.
Other times I would buy up a bunch of stuff so we could have breakfast. Like a proper breakfast, not just a handful of carbs in calling it good. But people would wake up late despite knowing when breakfast was going to be on. And then say they weren’t hungry. And not 30 minutes out the door, talking about picking up something or swinging by somewhere to quick grab a bite.
