IGG is bad because some of their repacks had their drm inside dll files, there were Ads built into the game at runtime, were found Cryptominers and startup malware included in their games and many other things.

Using windows without a license is illegal.

This is like saying you don't need to have a driving license to drive a car because the car doesn't complain about it.

You know that's a fuck up situation when you need to hope that a government union will give a fuck about a tech giant throwing shit at their paying customers

It would make any sense if they didn't force you to make 1 request every hour or even longer to only to delete 100 of you likes/comments/story interactions from your almost 10 year old account.

Apple invented Unix?? What the hell are you talking about?

Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, Brian Kernighan, Douglas McIlroy, and Joe Ossanna at Bell Labs developed and invented Unix.

But at least you don't pay chrome, with windows instead you need to pay a license to use it.

That's the problem

• they are making harder to change the default browser on windows, and broke workaround by chrome and firefox too.
• they don't let you uninstall edge in easy way or without a third party software.
• if you download another browser from edge they try to persuade you in to giving edge a try.
• they are planning to set edge as the default browser on teams.
• they don't give you an easy way to open with another browser the internet result from the windows search bar, they broke EdgeDeflector many times indeed.

And nobody is doing something about it!

Never metioned in the article, and it's a "feature" only spread to a close number of people.

Mesa+Nouveau is bad only thanks to nvidia and their signature lock implemented since the 900 series, as even stated by me before:

the open source nvidia driver it's not able to re-clock the gpu with an higher clock than the boot one (and trust me it's a really low clock) and you are not able to use a quarter of the power the gpu has.

Even if the open source driver code is 100% equals the nvidia one, literally copy pasted, it would not work because it need to be signed by nvidia to do so.

Oh yes sure, the software make nvidia gpu better, something that probably most of the hundred if not thousand of contributor to the mesa driver and in the list we have amd, intel, collabora, redhat, nouveau, google, valve and many others didn't see, they were the only one in the entire silicon valley to find this secret sauce to make gpus better with software.

No I don't have direct mode enabled because if you do so the mic doesn't work, and I don't have any sbx profile enabled.

No problem!

Yo dude I have a soundblasterx g6 too, I had this problem too where the sound card disconnected and reconnected as an output devices everytime, I have resolved the problem by changing this setting in the soundblaster commander under windows.

There is no equivalent driver for linux, at least for what I know, but I'm trying my best to resolve the issue by reverse engineering it.

For the mic problem I use a bash script on startup that change the mic to the one of the sound card.

Not gonna lie microg is not that bad, as everything as it's downsides, in my experience, indeed I'm writing this comment with a phone that has lineageos and microg installed.

Thing like gps are not the best not the worst either, bur every app I use work without any problem! And in the list there is even the app for my credit card.

It's important because now you can take full control of stats that you weren't able to because of the lock.

And it migh be good for linux because since the 900 series gpu, or since the lock were first implemented, the open source nvidia driver it's not able to re-clock the gpu with an higher clock than the boot one (and trust me it's a really low clock) and you are not able to use a quarter of the power the gpu has.

Even if the open source driver code is 100% equals the nvidia one, literally copy pasted, it would not work because it need to be signed by nvidia to do so.

For what I just read in the github discussion and in the linked gnome discussion is not endorsed by Gnome, as you can see here

Nope it's not a phishing email indeed I have received this 2 email in my email account where I have a discord account.

Very early in development, but the developer is now busy doing a lego island decompilation soo.

Nice!
