Ask Joe Bauers, he likes to get out of the way
Kubuntu, once setup, is a very reliable system. I use it to stream VR games.
Remove the Default from snaps and change it to flatpak, fairly quick and painless to put flatpak on, remember flatseal as well to modify permissions. Then only use snaps if there is no flatpak version and you don’t want it to have full access to the system. After a couple issues with Lutris and one weird issue that resolved itself with an update the GF has bothered me less with linux than windows. Just ensure everything is setup before you leave them the pc, including an auto back up routine.

Technology@lemmy.world•Beware Of Zombie Credit Cards That Work After ExpirationEnglish
4·14 days agoNot exactly the same, but there is not a great handle on auto pay either. I pay a sub for the gf on ESO, the CC they have on file expired at least 1 CC cycle ago and they are still happily taking the money for her sub, on one hand WTAF??? on the other hand since she plays it all the time I just let it slide, when I get my next renewed CC I will ask my bank why they are allowing an expired card to still function. So far as my physical cards I always cut the mag strip in half and then several pieces, and the chip once in half.

Linux@programming.dev•I'm Uninstalling Windows. – The Linux Experience by Vex (video, 46:52 mins) on Aug 24, 2026
5·16 days agoand it dropped me into a Windows recovery prompt
I discovered this bloody annoyance in XP I believe, or maybe was 98. The way I used to get rid of it was to start the install of whatever OS, format the drive in one large partition, reboot, then install whatever OS I was going to install and partition accordingly. Took a few extra minutes but well worth it vs doing the whole install and remove files later/tell current OS to ignore other files.
I’m a “Loonixtard” now, according to someone that jumped on my live lol. I don’t talk about linux, unless someone asks, I just have some tags that state I’m on linux

There are some actual good reaction channels, where they actually add relevant commentary and such. One I have been enjoying is Warp Reactor, love his break downs and medium dives after the video, he does a lot of shows like star trek, Babylon 5, The Orville, and many many more. T. Folse Nuclear is a nuclear engineer and reacts to a lot of sciency stuff with his background. There are a couple more I watch but mostly many of them are questionable content farms
Well, I could either never die (Starship Simulator), or die before I’m level 12 (Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup). I’d hope to be on the ship, lol, exploring

2·22 days agoDammit!!! At least they don’t get the ad revenue from me. Yeah, that asian guy with glasses hasn’t been in the thumb for a while now, but soon as I click on the vid, BOOM!, there he is
I do this at least 5-10x a day, and they keep showing me the same shit from a different “account” same fucking stick man, same fucking asian guy with glasses, same old white fucker with white hair and glasses. I’m tired boss

Technology@lemmy.world•YouTube will now count a view as soon as a video starts playingEnglish
12·22 days agoDidn’t see it in the article, but I wonder if on desktop at least will it count if you hover and “preview” the video before clicking on it? Hopefully not, then we can see if it is slop or not, though that will be 1 more annoying thing to do
