Getting certain programs to work on my Linux machine does take extra time as opposed to if it were Windows, but it's counterbalanced by all those times I'd have to look up how to get the WiFi option back and try every single thing on the list because it was never just one simple solution that worked each time… also I don't get hit by unwanted forced updates, and now I update voluntarily without fear of even more unwanted telemetry being stuffed in there.

But if I just wanted to browse the web, check my email, shop, and do my banking, Linux would work out of the box better than Windows 11.

I usually don't, which is completely sacrilegious as a musician, but I'd rather be playing it myself ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If I do bother, it is usually Broadway (have not seen that here yet!), the pop music of my childhood, classical, classic rock, or anything I have ever performed before. Around Christmastime I have a dedicated Christmas playlist which is just Christmas songs.

50/50 if I can have music on while programming. Sometimes it becomes background noise, sometimes my brain starts focusing hard on the music and I need to not have that.

My computer would often have trouble connecting to WiFi on Windows 11, literally to the point that the WiFi option wasn't showing up at all. I switched that computer to Linux late December and I have not had that problem yet.

Yes, it's a German word we just took and now it's in English dictionaries. I am speaking of German words that will not show up in English dictionaries, even if they do look a lot like kind-of-English in the case of "antibabypillen".

I still can't believe antibabypillen is a real German word for exactly what you think it is—birth control pills.

I wonder if English has any words that people who have it as a second language find hilarious for similar reasons, and if so what they are…

:) I'm lucky enough to have bought my Windows computer and switched to Linux before the Copilot key. But if I got it now, it would feel really good switching to Linux to make the "fuck you I don't want to use this and you wasted my keyboard space with it anyways" key useful again.

It pays to play incremental games because a lot of the devs have posted their code online.

Fork > fix > happy

Am overall negative about AI.

Their post is on topic + not hostile/rude.

Upvote.

Downvoting because you disagree is not the way. It is also what a lot of people do anyways.

For any onlookers reading this, I used https://rufus.ie/en/ and I did not get my USB stick bricked.

I understand that. I attract less people to PeerTube, contribute less content for others, if I refuse to make my things public. I'd rather have big, corporate YouTube bear the burden than the smaller PeerTube.
