And this is why I stick with the flagship edition of Fedora
Just gave it a try and than went back to what I was using via a reinstallation

You know it's funny how some people think Debian is beginner friendly when in reality it isn't especially since it's focused on stability and free software
Like from me that's the only reason I don't recommend it to new users cause it was never designed for beginners to start with

You know I honestly hate to continue seeing how "Arch Linux is unstable" myth
Well that's dependant on the user especially for the software they have installed and the AUR and the reason I went with Arch in the first place when I started Linux in 2022 is because my preference is rolling release

You know idk why people think Manjaro is such a great distro for beginners (when in reality it isn't)
Like it's controversial when you look at the questionable practices that occurred in the past
This is why I often avoid Manjaro when it comes to Arch and go with vanilla Arch and EndeavourOS

I'm definitely keeping this Crucial SSD as a reminder about what Micron did and it's a decision they will regret especially for backstabbing the fanbase as the brand was still extremely popular

Since I'm tired of waiting for the new Start Menu and the new battery icon (fuck Microsoft's A/B bullshit) I decided to enable them myself with the ViVeTool application
It's another example of how Microsoft is completely ignorant and the features should be available to everyone not in phases

Decided to go with Crucial instead for the external SSD for my desktop PC as the RAM is Crucial branded memory and plus as a farewell purchase
You had a good run Crucial Micron is gonna regret this

At this point it's getting on everyone's nerves
Like I honestly don't know why they think CoPilot is a "important feature to Windows 11" when it's just a chatbot it's more of the opposite annoying users

With Crucial leaving the RAM market as a reminder that my desktop has a Crucial RAM stick in it despite being branded as "Micron Technology" in CPU-Z
How do I know this? Well if you look at the part number notice the first 3 letters "MTC" if you decode it it's Crucial branded memory

I don't blame the creator of Task Manager especially since this is really becoming unacceptable and annoying from Microsoft
Again another example of how much trust they have lost especially from long time Windows users

You know what I absolutely love how Linux fanboys think that Linux is taking off when the reality is it's not a viable replacement
Like if you look at the market share for Linux it's always been 1-3% in the last 5, 10, 20 years so no it's not blowing up in numbers

Ah yes thanks Adobe for claiming that it's a "student/teacher" plan in the email even though it's literally the individual plan (if it really was the student/teacher plan the price would've been lower since they get a discount then $39.99 afterwards)

On this day 40 years ago the OS that would change personal computing forever was released to the public with the release of Windows 1.0 that started it all as just a GUI shell on top of MS-DOS before it became an independent OS with the release of Windows 95 in 1995

Presenting my tier list for search engines
Quite obvious to have Bing/Google in the D tier especially since both engines are getting worse (although Bing has always been shit to begin with) plus being owned by Big Tech companies which means data collection and targeted advertising

You know Microsoft it would be better if you would stop shoving AI down into everyone's throats
Like I'm saying CoPilot can work as a competitor in a way but if it was not shoved into everyone's faces because it's getting annoying as fuck and not everyone wants it

Man I can't imagine how Microsoft themselves must be satisfied about this as they continue to close more loopholes for having a local account
So much for YouTube to use AI to do the work for the platform instead of actual humans monitoring everything
It's an example of why we shouldn't trust AI

Then again a picture of the computer that we had and it was purchased from my mother's workplace back around 2002 as this guy at her workplace had PCs laying around and because my mother was an employee she got a discount on it ($799 original price but with the $150 discount: $649.99)
