Yeah it’s just OneDrive/Sharepoint with a trench-coat

Yeah no, the experience really is ass.
We use Lenovo IdeaPads at work, a model with an i7 and a Nvidia GPU, and Windows constantly chugs and has weird UI issues, even though the machines are not running heavy software and are on a pretty fresh install.

• Sometimes when I wake the laptop from sleep, it sits and the lock screen showing my wallpaper and NOTHING else.
  Clicking, typing does nothing, I just have to sit there and wait like 2 minutes until it finally decides to show the input field and let me login again.

• The Network/Sound/Battery tray flyout frequently stops responding. Only goes back to normal after restarting explorer.exe

• The internal display has scaling while the external doesn’t. So every time you drag a window across it “snags” in between them while the application flickers and struggles to switch the scaling.

• Switching between virtual desktops is so sloooow, if you use a different wallpaper on each you can literally see Windows struggling to swap the wallpapers in time.
  It’s impressive how a native OS feature feels like a third-party kludge.

Great work Microsoft.

Depends on the use case.
If OP’s main goal is gaming, they’ll likely miss the control remapping features. If the use case is running standard apps, then for sure

While Linux can’t mix page sizes between processes, it can virtualize another Arm Linux kernel with a different page size. So we run games inside a tiny virtual machine using muvm, passing through devices like the GPU and game controllers. The hardware is happy because the system is 16K, the game is happy because the virtual machine is 4K

Insane work, holy shit

Install DeArrow and get over it already

Wow, surprised I haven’t seen this being discussed more.

Great read on the topic: OpenAI Is A Bad Business by Ed Zitron (Where’s Your Ed At)

The first thing that came to mind.
This is turning into a pattern now, fuck, I wish the lawmakers would fucking do something about it!

Context for other readers: ‘Their Bionic Eyes Are Now Obsolete and Unsupported’ by Eliza Strickland and Mark Harris.
It’s a disgrace.

Dunno, I own the cheapest Ink Jet HP sells and setup is much faster on Linux than via their drivers on Windows.
Gnome Scanner also wipes the floor with any scanning application from HP/MSFT

Glad to see I’m not the only one harboring this conspiracy.
It’s the only way to explain the lobotomy going from Google Now to Assistant

Worse than the exploit, is hearing the struggles the author faced to report it

Twenty-two days of arguments, condescension, several gaslighting attempts, more or less subtle personal attacks, dozens of emails and messages, more than 100 pages of text in total. Hours and hours and hours and hours and fucking hours. Not to mention somehow being judged by a big chunk of the infosec community with a tendency of talking and judging situations they simply don’t know.

Nope, layer effects were destructive, couldn’t go back and tweak a effect, had to make a copy of the layer every time before the change and apply it again.

For all the shortcomings of AI, and specially of Google’s Gemini model, its YouTube integration is really good for this, even more so on Android where you can set it as your default assistant and ask a question about the video you’re currently watching without having to switch apps.

Asking for a bullet point list, it gave me this:

• Nondestructive editing
• Dynamic guides or smart guides
• CMYK support
• Outline text
• Multi-layer features and layer sets

Seems like he not only deleted the Tweet but also protected his whole account… Very weird…

what else could they give us?

AI!!!

^^/s

but is 199 days older than wikipedia

Oooh, the celebs started showing up on Lemmy!

Note to self: scream uncontrollably when picking up the phone

Pro-tip: Whenever you receive a call/text/email from “your bank” saying something is wrong, don’t interact!

Open their app/website or call them yourself to verify.

otherwise it goes in the landfill

Ah, well in that case, fair enough.
I’ve done my fair share of ridiculousness to keep free crappy hardware running.
I will say, try running Alpine Linux on a container.

I’ve managed to extract some usefulness out of a borderline e-waste Android tablet running some flavor of Jelly Bean, so outdated you couldn’t connect to most websites due to bad TLS certs, by running a Alpine Container on it.
Alpine was the only distro I found that could run up-to-date software on such a ancient version of the Linux kernel, everything else failed to work at all.
