These greedy muthas can't even name stuff without robbing someone else's names.

I've watched all of Breaking Bad, except the last episode.

I agree. If I want to watch proper space shenanigans with Muppets targeting a more adult audience, I'll watch Farscape.

I remember when it came out, in my country it was sold out for weeks and people would queue for hours to get a ticket.

I only ever watched bits on TV, I'm not interested in catastrophe movies.

Why don't you want to use the new Teams? Give us your feedback so we can ignore it.

Thank you for your feedback. Say, do you know there's a new Teams available? Try it now!

It felt like a long long time. Maybe USB sticks were straightforward, but USB webcams, scanners, printers, modems took a while.

Hey, wanna try the New Calendar? Tries the new calendar, it is even worse than the current one. Hey, wanna try the New Calendar? STFU Teams, I need to work!

We sure came a long way from the early days where Linux didn't have USB support to sometimes running Window apps better than Windows

Don't.

Everybody hates preachers.

Lead by example.

I hope the UX designer that came up with that forever has weak elastic bands in his/her underwear.

If I want to copy a text message, I have to avoid the emoji pop-up, then very carefully click and drag over the text, making sure I don't also copy the user name. Then I have to paste it in Notepad to edit out any weird hidden characters. Copy it again and paste it.

If I want to send a reaction emoji, it's just a clock away.

Who the hell designed this abomination?

Quite a few of my favorites have already been mentioned, so I'll add some that live on my toolbar:

Zim, a desktop wiki with markdown and a lot of plugins. Great for organizing all of your notes with links and a fast search function.

Heroic launcher, for organizing your Epic, GOG and Prime collection.

Geany, an extremely configurable and light editor that can be as simple or as full featured as you want, via plugins.

Terminator, a solid multi terminal emulator where I spend most of my time at work.

I've been a retro gamer since retro gaming meant Pong and I've used a lot of fiddly emulators in my time but I've never quite figured out RetroArch's interface.

This is the way.

Thank you for the first link, kind stranger.

Looks like PatientGamers' membership numbers will be on the rise soon.

I keep backups (regular, incremental, remote) to keep my data safe in case something happens to my local data. This protects me from things like theft, hardware failure, accidental deletion of some important files. Having multiple generations (daily, weekly, monthly) will protect me when I delete some files and only realize weeks later.

All of this is a separated issue to having encryption or not. I encrypt both local and backup copies, and store the keys in a password manager.

See what works for you, but don't confuse the issues.

Encryption and backup are orthogonal domains. If you don't understand why, I'm sure you're not going to take a random strangers' opinion on the subject.

Yes.

If my computers are stolen or lost with the luggage, or if I suddenly die (as one sometime does), I don't want whoever goes through my computers to get hold of my ex-girlfriends nudes, my credentials for online banking or my porn habits.

That is a good reason to backup, but has nothing to do with encryption.
