You are very dedicated.

I am Polish, so it's not that hard for me :) But I've made a huge mistake of not learning where to put an accent (ударение) on each word, so my pronunciation might be way off for some words. Also I try way too hard to make sentences that make sense in Polish, but in Russian they might sound weird. Lack of practice, I guess. But I definitely see progress over time when I talk to native speakers (Ukrainian refugees mostly).

I remember having trouble installing software from Microsoft Store, (there's apparently a solution for that, but it didn't work for me) but otherwise it's a perfectly normal Windows 10 installation, just without any bloat.

EU should just go and tell Microsoft that either they will allow consumers to install Windows 11 on hardware that would have no trouble running it (they could even slap a warning that it's not fully "supported", like whatever), or tell the user that there's an eco-friendly alternative: that is running Linux, with instructions on how to do so. Otherwise they just allow a monopoly to have disastrous impact on the environment.

explorer.exe is still used for desktop and probably other stuff as well, so it might not be possible without using 3rd party shell replacement and not many exist.

You can run Windows in virtual machine, you know.

It would be the best if you could have dedicated GPU for it, to be able to run games with nearly 100% performance.

Why are they making it harder for me to learn Russian and Turkish :/

You could say the same about Android and iOS. They are preloaded with a web browser not many people change. In fact I've noticed that many users (mostly older) using Android don't even know what browser they are using, since they just type shit into Google widget on their home screen.

I have been to Czechia few times, the people there are definitely not dumb, lol.

Fuck up your life by doing this simple trick

Assembly isn't magic. Computers compiling/interpreting high-level languages into assembly, and making everything works without constantly breaking IS MAGIC

There's an online version of VS Code: vscode.dev (not sure if that's official, though)

Edit: Oh, well... it cannot open and edit local files, making it useless at least for me.

To be honest I really think that an AI surprising human brain in many ways is a matter of time, but what people don't tend to talk about is whether or not we are slowly approaching the limit what we can do with technology, because I already see tech progress slowing down in some areas.

Exactly. And Spotify for example is horrendous. I don't understand how people can use an app that is so slow and buggy.

If you're using only Electron-based apps, why not use browser tabs for these?

8 GB is fine for basic tasks and it won't change anytime soon.

Hey it's a "It's a UNIX system" movie, isn't it?
