who else use their monitors like this

i'm on my deathbed. i'm breathing my final breaths. i ask for help. bill microsoft bursts into my hospital room and tells me:

"sfc /scannow chkdsk"

i didn't understand at first, but once i realized i begrudgingly pulled my laptop up and typed the commands.

...

it worked. i'm cured.

bill microsoft, smiling, walks out of the room and locks the doors, condemning the room. i bang on the doors to no avail. i succumb to my sickness yet again after 30 minutes.

journalism on the xz backdoor ranges from actually interesting deep dives as to how the backdoor was inserted and who jia tan is to "the time was almost near. it's over. linux has fallen. billions must windows server."

discord patch notes are so weird they go from

"Small indie company Hammer and Chisel cannot make streaming work correctly"

to

"Buy this shit that's really fucking annoying and makes you look like a jackass!!!"

to

"We added a basic feature everyone else has had since their launch"

to

"We fixed the most annoying issue with the thing we forced everyone to use"

i was dragging an app icon while it was being deleted and now this is permanently on my screen

enabling secure boot, kernel lockdown, etc only for a security researcher to discover a hardware vulnerability in the intel Binkleforden subsystem that lets anybody telepathically gain ring -3 access to your system by perceiving its existence

cute girls named hwmon are messaging me through my kernel :neocat_blush_hide:

@ioletsgo people keep telling me "just use windows! it just works!" and while that's true for some situations (like software i need to combat critical design failures, like my microphone being inside the fan assembly on my laptop) the scales are starting to tip in linux's favor, ironically even better on arch linux

@deci @ioletsgo yeah this is another thing i think linux has over windows

it literally does not care what environment you put it in. it's the potato of operating systems. it'll work on anything as long as the kernel has hardware support for the things you need

windows 11 wants to be on an internal disk, it wants a TPM, it wants a specific set of CPUs, it wants secure boot, and the end user has to fulfill all this unless they want to install windows 10, use some black magic like rufus to install windows to a USB disk, or just know the registry keys they need to make off the top of their head to get around the windows 11 hardware restrictions

@ioletsgo we at esmBot have decided to go proprietary and protect our code with denuvo :steamhappy:
