Normal enough I deal with it on 2 separate machines. One new and store bought, unmolested by IT lockdown bs, and the other I built and use really just for gaming. Idk man. I just feel like Windows has gotten worse and worse and I’m thinking of hopping back to Linux now that gaming is more accessible on it thanks to Proton, but I can’t completely get away from windows.
It doesn’t. I bought it with a company credit card and I don’t let IT touch it. I gotta do a lot of stuff in the field so I don’t have time to call IT every time I need to install a software update update.
The File Explorer behavior is something I’ve been noticing lately. I do have a number of cloud accounts connected for work, 2 One Drive, 1 dropbox, with a shit ton of files and folders (most not sync’d locally) and I wonder if File Explorer is looking through those when it opens.
Idk man. I have a brand new laptop my work got me and I notice it. Windows is just plain bad now. It’s like I go to save a file and the file browser window opens and I’m stuck sitting there waiting for minutes. It’s like I’m suddenly 10 again when you’d turn on your pc, go make breakfast, come back and hope your PC finished booting. Does it both on my work laptop running 11 and my PC at home running 10.
Got my Steam Deck recently and just wanted to add image resources to non steam game icons for Plex and Firefox and such. Remembered seeing this post here a while back and now I’m deep in the rabbit hole. Thanks for this super useful post!
Fully left Reddit. I don’t miss it at all. I do find it a little annoying when someone links me to a Reddit post just because of how terrible the site looks or how they want you to sign in.
Chaotic neutral move. Nice.
In all seriousness, how is it?
Same. I just don’t have as much time to troubleshoot things when stuff goes wrong these days.
I agree. Back in the day I used to run DD-WRT on a cheap $75 router to get features you’d only get on $200+ routers, but now a days I think there’s better options. UniFi for example is great if you don’t mind spending a bit extra. Otherwise I’d rather just use PfSense.
Linus Torvalds porn, however, does not. But hey whatever floats your boat.
Man… I get the inspiration for the sites name, but Piped absolutely sounds like it’s a porn website.
I think the evidence speaks for itself.
Comments asking for upvotes and gold gonna be out of hand
Yes you can with markdown. But like… then I’d have to go to whatever image site, upload the photo, copy the link, go back to the app, make my comment or post, paste the photo link, bracket it with markdown, and post.
Or, I could just click the little image button in Memmy and click upload photo and it does it for me.
like so
I use Imgur because Memmy has uploading photos direct to Imgur built in, like Apollo did. If the devs swapped to using PixelFed, I’d be using that. It’s just a matter of convenience.
If I was uploading and sharing photos to my own account, yeah I’d use PixelFed. I don’t have an Imgur account.
So yeah, I agree. It would be good to get away from that service.

I’ve been a long time lurker on other social media platforms, but I’ve started to try and contribute more since I’d like to see communities I like succeed. Maybe then I can go back to lurking
TraSH Guides is the best. Can’t recommend it enough
Video scalers my dude. Proprietary yes, but Chinese is questionable. Crestron, Extron, QSC, all major video products based out of the US, tho I believe only Crestron manufacturers in the US.
