I got two weeks of uni left and afterwards, I’m thinking its time to take the plunge again. I haven’t used linux since I threw ubuntu lite or some shit on a cheap netbook 15 years ago. I remember it working pretty well and not having any major issues out of the box.

Then again, it’s not like I have any trouble with Windows now. My install is almost perfect for me with everything extraneous ripped out. However, it’s more of a moral/philosophical choice at this point to support FOSS and to claw back some of my digital privacy. I wish I could find a way to easily see what software I use will work directly and what I’ll need to find replacements for.

In addition to the other commenter mentioning “Do Not Recommend”, there is an extension called BlockTube that is pretty handy.

Fucking goddamn bullshit

100% agree on both counts

The ONLY money I spent during my entire time at uni has been on these stupid Cengage and Connect courses. I blame the teachers, more than anyone, for using these awful services. I also blame the Uni for not advertising that it would be required for the coursework. The teachers are either too lazy or too overworked to make their own materials or teach from an analogue book which doesn’t spoon-feed the lessons and grade things for them. It’s a shit system and nothing made me madder than a required class using these services.

For a few of them, I just lobbied the department to pay for it saying I wasn’t able to afford it, and they paid for my license or whatever.

People complain because the law was poorly written, not because it is a bad idea.

Tackling the problems that really matter. Good job, FBI.

Fucking clowns.

DEI, otherwise known as hiring the right person for the job, regardless of label. It’s wild that meritorious hiring principles aren’t the norm in this country. Have to find out what you are before who you are matters.

I didn’t know I needed this. Thanks!

For what it’s worth, I kinda agree. Maybe I’ve changed but I feel like their content over the last year or two is nowhere near as good as it was.

Maybe I’ve just had a change in taste, though.

Just look what they’re doing with their Xbox brand. One of the most well established brands in the most profitable entertainment sector and they are literally setting fire to it in every conceivable direction.

Microsoft must be taking business cues from GRRM… Kill all your main characters.

I thought this was a post about the Gamecube emulator. lol

I wish I could say I’m shocked. That site has fallen off so hard it’s crazy. The censorship has gone mad. It’s the main reason I’m here.

Because that’s exactly what it is. Appeasement… Maybe it’ll work this time.

The censorship has gone mad on Reddit. I was a user there before the whole Digg migration, and it’s been such a wonderful ride. It had to end at some point, though.

I’m just at a point where it’s genuinely impossible to have a conversation there without having your comments removed, the thread locked, or downvoted to oblivion for not joining in to whatever the masses are yapping about.

Less of a town square and more of a mob of idiots surrounded by bots.
