It’s heavy to give up on something after 8 years but power to you for sticking to your guns, your energy will be far better spent elsewhere.

My RuneScape account got rinsed because of my teenage stupidity in the early 2000’s, learned a very valuable lesson and haven’t been scammed since.

One of the screenshots has google play store installed on it, that’ll do wonders for privacy.

At least it’ll do wonders for the used market, hopefully.

Pretty much the only thing Windows has going for it is hardware support, and that’s purely down to manufacturers not supporting Linux so I can’t even give MS kudos for that.

If my simracing hardware ever gets decent support I’m switching all my machines over.

The list of reasons why I refuse to buy Nintendo products is getting pretty hefty at this point.

I love the idea of peppermint OS but it didn’t work properly on my laptop both times I tried it, first time it wouldn’t install any of the extras I selected during the install process and the second time using the Debian 12 base it just straight up wouldn’t give me an option to install extras and the window would instantly close when I tried to open it. I really love the ideology behind it and it is a speedy OS but I’ve ended up going to LMDE instead while I toy with the idea of Arch.

You mean you guys don’t constantly have music playing in your head anyway?

Thanks, I’m cured.

Meanwhile in F1 a 42 year old is dicking on everyone else who isn’t driving a Red Bull.

If you shift over to Windows 10 LTSC you’ll get security updates until 2032.

Give uMatrix a try over NoScript, there’s a bit of a learning curve to it but it’s a lot more powerful.

I reckon you’d be half decent at Scots too.

Windows 10 LTSC is the way to go if you absolutely have to use Windows, I’d love to use Linux on my gaming rig but Assetto Corsa + my simracing hardware doesn’t play nice at all.
