modern windows tries to trick you into not doing that. if you hold for a little bit it turns the screen off so you think it’s turned off when it really hasn’t, then if you hold a little longer it turns the screen back on and tells you to please stop holding the power button, then finally a little after that the computer actually turns off. why the hardware even makes that possible is beyond me


I use both matrix and discord regularly and matrix is nowhere near a viable alternative for discord, the way they work is just too different. The only real alternative I’ve been able to find is guilded but it’s no better than discord since it’s still completely centralized and closed source
I always end up coming back to arch specifically because it’s easy to maintain and mostly just works. There’s so little to break and when something breaks it’s always easy to fix


The only other one you can put on that machine is Linux.
Not true, I know first hand OpenBSD works fine (at least on my AMD FW13, but I’m sure it works on the others too) and I’m sure the other BSDs do too. I’m not recommending a new user use those, just pointing out the original statement is wrong.


I mean I think anything you do that makes enough money to be worth it is just a job at that point right? Like you could start streaming on twitch or something, but once you start making money from it, it becomes a job.


I feel like mozilla could switch to making all their decisions by flipping a coin and do better than they’re doing in recent years
I just use Typst for everything these days, but if you really want a gui thing there’s always the web version of google docs and ms office


Is dual booting really that common? Whenever I need to test something on windows I just use a vm
Anyone can learn to use an office suite on their own in very little time so there’s no reason to teach it. Being able to use the command line is a valuable skill that makes you a way better computer user no matter what you’re doing and it’s one that a lot of people are missing these days. I don’t think you can really say you know how to use a computer if you can only use it in the very specific ways someone happens to have made a gui for
It’s crazy that under 2 years ago I got like twice the memory for my laptop I had intended to because it was so cheap I just figured why not.
I feel like using the command line should really be a basic skill taught in school. That would be way more worthwhile than teaching people how to use like microsoft office
As annoying as using a non-posix compatible shell sometimes is, fish saves me so much time


Console manufacturers all just need to switch to displayport to encourage tv manufacturers to do the same. No one’s going to not buy a ps6 or steam machine because they have to use a little dp-hdmi adapter, but they might be a little more likely to choose a tv that doesn’t need an adapter over one that does


I looked at the comments and was wondering why everyone else had the same response as me and then i realized the community


I usually make src, junk, and applications for appimages and unpackaged binaries
I’m more upset by the idea of grouping your images by format and then splitting jpeg into two groups depending on which extension is used

Not true in my experience, I would say the majority of windows users I see these days use edge and bing. Most don’t use copilot though
Well we know in the year 1240 the answer was 0 and in 1241 it was 0. So we know that the number of robots is increasing at a rate of zero per year. If we follow that trend to today, we get 0 (robots in 1240) + 786 (years since 1240) * 0 (robots per year) = 0 robots in 2026.
