Ziglin (it/they)

I think they are trying to exaggerate how very outdated some Windows UI elements look (primarily dialog boxes?). I doubt they would use a 95 theme on an OS that’s hard to theme and annoying to use.

Anyone know how to require authentication for root privelages? Currently I can become root without a password.

I’ve only had it quite that bad once when I just rebooted and it decided to pull an update. After that the bios was unable to find any of the bootloaders on my system. (Fixed with a lot fiddling from a liveusb. Is a dual boot system but I haven’t touched Windows on it since 2023)

These other ones just made it unusable. Another time on a laptop it pulled updates in the background and would crash itself just after login. (Needed to be reinstalled and I lost some data which wasn’t backed up yet. setup by manufacturer)

Then on a different desktop system it just would bsod every few minutes, barely leaving time to go through logs. (I finally fixed it by changing a BIOS setting and reinstalling Windows, setup by manufacturer installed Linux on a separate drive and it was fine until the drive malfunctioned)

This was not a crash, just a thirty minute delay. A couple of days ago that device did an update without me even logging in. I accidentally started windows, then immediately selected reboot in the power menu before entering a password. It then ‘prepared’ something and told me not to reboot, bypassed grub, rebooted again, bypassed grub (after I missed the bios), rebooted again back into grub.

How am I the only one who does have annoying issues like this on Windows (except that Windows only gives a useless error code at most) while Linux has failed to boot a total of once (without me explicitly changing nvidia drivers).

Just use Control+Shift+Tab to go forward again ;)

Ah, I don’t have an app store. That would explain why I have never seen it.

That just displays the command or is there a browser extension that runs it for you too? Most Windows apps certainly don’t run by just clicking a button either.

Wait how do you install flatpaks? I add the remote (if necessary) and then install it from there. That is nothing like I have ever seen on Windows (though apparently there are package managers).

Idk, I saw a post on pornhub stats on I believe a map community that showed that cuddles were quite a popular tag. And if it’s wholesome and comfy looking why not?

I agree with the second half but I can’t figure out where you got the “equally” from.

If you’re not logged in they give you a button to log in through your institution. Alternatively they seem to let you create an account to view a limited number of articles per month.

If they want an account you are paying with your data whether they use it or not.

It could still be a good source I just wanted to portray the not logged in view.

I was attempting to warn them so that they unplug the Linux drive when updating windows too.

Same thing applies to Windows.

I personally would use Kelvin for science, Celsius is much more useful for everyday things like whether it will rain or snow, whether the paths will be icy, how hot it will be according to the weather report and how hot to make stuff when boiling water or cooking. Kelvin is great for not having negative temperatures which don’t make sense.

Worthwhile note to people too lazy to click on the link is that this is the 2021 version. In June 2024 (which is linked at the top of the linked article) the numbers look a little different but not much better for the US.

Most certainly. They need a way to ensure that even the most dimwitted of creatures know that cats are indeed far superior to the lowly aristocrats of the human realm.

I’m surprised since most cats do consider themselves to be pretty much beyond mere aristocrats, why should they care about those mortals?

If that were the case you could still hash it on the client side, forcing it to be a certain size and then hash it again on the server with the right salt. I don’t think there’s a real disadvantage to hashing a hash.

I don’t think I’m autistic but I am confused too :/

I figured it was about the time spent transmitting. But the password should probably be hashed before sending as well as upon arrival at the server, correct?
