The other day it rewrote a registry key that prevented these pop ups.

This is what drove me away. There are like 7 people that figured out how to make these pop-ups disappear and Microsoft invested money to “patch” that “error” to ensure they were forced to continue seeing these ads.

Why would they do that when people use this one all the same?

Plenty of other places to upload images. I think catbox.moe is a popular one.

Haha, should have known you can’t post that shit around here.

But I agree, I use Brave and it’s awesome! They even have a private LLM!

The poor UI and lack of polish has been a big problem in design communities for a long time

I dunno what to tell you except that it’s not a problem now.

For all the deserved shit that Windows gets, it “just works” without ever needing to touch config or a terminal.

Most people don’t need to use anything other than a browser, which works fine.

I can’t see Reddit anymore

A nice looking UI with good fonts, and a clean interface.

Pretty much anything beats Windows in that regard.

The ability to run random Windows applications with minimal fuss.

I mean if you REALLY can’t find a FOSS alternative, Bottles has been extremely successful and easy for me…

All without needing to use the terminal

This is the biggest hangup for me. Even if there is a GUI, most instructions will send you into the terminal nonetheless.

NO VERIFIED SOURCES ONLY OUTRAGE

Better question is “why not”?

HOW DARE YOU ROWLING IS LITERALLY MURDER

If you try googling any of this, you will find a shit ton of christian cope

“Cope” is basically the foundation of most religions.

Mostly because 90% of what’s in The Bible is gobblederemoved, twisted and contorted by a wide variety of opportunistic con men over the course of thousands of years, written in such a vague way as to easily be interpreted to mean whatever they want it to mean.

Similar to the way Trump speaks in vague generalities and word salad, and people hear whatever they want to hear, which of course leads to massive problems when you’re the leader or aspiring leader of the free world.

Coming at him with a personal insult is not the way to go about this.

The correct way is to point out that most Christmas traditions are not rooted in Christianity, but in paganism.

What about it

Sure, but I don’t dedicate 12 hours/day for 9 years learning to become a doctor “for fun”.

Learning to ride a bike does not contribute anything to anyone but yourself so you’re not making a great argument here…

It is true. It obviously doesn’t make you invincible 🤦. That money doesn’t vanish when you die. It just gets redistributed.

What is it exactly that you think money is? Just fancy paper?

No one goes to school for fun except for rich old people. People go to school to get money.

we’re just not so stupid as to accepts the horrible conditions you have in the US of A.

The “horrible conditions” where we don’t have our money taken at gunpoint and given to people who contribute nothing to society? Yeah, it’s awful. Don’t come here. Please don’t come here.

I don’t expect an American to understand this straight away - nor to be smart, to be honest

Ditto.

You seem to be under the illusion that time actually represents tangible capital

Yes, that is literally how that works. You’ve never heard the phrase “time is money”? That’s what that means. Money is nothing but a physical (or digital) representation of someone else’s time.

You’ll spend those 4 years alive anyway, right? Then you may freely use it to acquire education.

LOL what? Did you actually read that before sending it?

“Hey, why not join an internment camp!? After all, you’ll be alive for 4 years anyway, right?”

…or you could use it to do things you actually want to do?

if you’re too poor to sustain your costs of living, be it because a part time job doesn’t pay enough or because your family lacks the funds, you can apply to receive free money from the state for the duration of your degree

God I’m just so jealous that you guys have all this free money falling from the skies. I assume all of your work is completed by a legion of robots in this utopia?

It’s not free. It’s taxpayer-funded.

And the 4 years of their life? Is that free?

And the obvious reply is “I don’t care how much you enjoy it, no one wants to spend 6 hours/day at school for 4 years and spend $40k+ without expecting something in return”.

I think the question to ask is:

“Why would anyone spend the time and money I did to go to school and become an expert of their craft when they can flip burgers for the same pay?”
