Literally the plot of the talos principle

Bro you can just run find

Bummer :(

Oh it's typing/chat suggestions, the same thing we already get with our keyboards. For some reason I thought you meant error messages written by AI haha.

Got a link?

Patching you in.

I've never felt more at home! No separate machines, no dualbooting, my games run great :D

Oh I'm very aware, I've been running Linux in one way or another for 20 years :)

I did ignore it, literally didn't read it. You have to run code or data from untrusted sources (or be available on a network) to get exploited, and I know that computer wasn't doing anything high bandwidth otherwise it would affect my gaming. I literally only played games on the install for a couple hours a night and my browser and other software was up to date.

It was mainly due to qt dropping support (used by OBS, I could have stayed on an old version) and Steam for the same reason but Chromium. I probably could have kept my old computer and stayed on 7 for longer if I wanted to.

What are the features that 10 has? A different separate control panel?

Didn't stop me from gaming on 7 either. I was only gaming on my windows partition so I didn't worry too much about vulns. Nothing in 8-11 interests me so I thought I'd try all my gaming in Linux and have been blown away by how good it is. I ran 7 up until last April and the cracks had finally started to show.

The boss from quake 2 harassed someone?!

Been playing sc2 on Linux for 8 months. They won't ban obvious and known cheaters, I'm not worried about playing in Linux.

Here's my bad experience with snaps back when I ran Kubuntu. I thought I'd give it a try, maybe it'll be like systemd where lots of people loudly complain but it works and it's something slightly different to learn.

My Firefox was automatically moved to snap. First of all, I noticed that there was a slight delay whenever I clicked a link outside of Firefox that wasn't there before. I think it also switched the file picker back to gtk which I hate and it moved my config to somewhere funny. So I get a popup saying that there's an update for Firefox, and that I need to close it. Normally with apt I just do the update and then restart later. So I close Firefox and... nothing. No user feedback, I can't tell if it's doing anything. I assume it's done and I reopen it. Nope, I get the same popup later. I guess I didn't leave it closed long enough. The whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth. Canonical is pushing their homegrown software on me because they want to compete with flatpak or whatever, and they made my user experience worse as a result. I gained nothing from this except frustration and distrust that lead to me switching distros when I built a new machine. Snaps also spam your df output with all their different crap that gets mounted. I ended up removing snap and using the Mozilla PPA and was happy again.

Operative word here is "could". Of course US officials say that, because it's what they're trying to do. Really they're just whining about the "stealing" part.

Consumers will choose more battery life, all else being equal.
