Kinda sounds like an average Florida man story.

A chick with tentacles out of her genitals? I’ve seen that one before.

SOME models do work pretty good with PostmarketOS. Very few with all hardware features working, some with nearly all features working. Mostly classical laptop devices. Convertibles and tablets on the other hand work generally less good. Well of course there’s a gigantic shitload of devices that don’t even have a functional display and a even bigger pile that’s not even booting.

• pretty much every modern Chromebook will be able to have Linux installed over ChromeOS. You might have to open it up and remove a write-protect screw.

I did exactly that. That thing with the screw is only for older models. I did it on a somewhat newer model and I had to open it up and disconnect the battery. Newer models need a SuzyQ cable to switch from ChromeOS to Linux. All of them need to run the MrChromebox script after disabling write protection. Well, except ARM Chromebooks. They are not compatible with the script. For some of these devices PostmarketOS is the way to go.

Food drops to the ground

Me: “AGAIN!? Ah well, that’s typical, just my luck.”

Starts picking it up and eating anyway with a bare minimum of cleaning said food, just like a dog

My car and also my scooter are from 2009. I use them (for commute) alternately depending on which season it is and if it’s raining or not.

Trickle down economics (well, it’s not like there was a time when it was true)

South Park Season 1 Episode 7 (the episode where Cartman wears a Adolf Hitler costume for Halloween) was partially censored in Germany. Cartmans “Sieg Heil” was changed to “Wie Geil” (means “how cool”). I think the censoring there was actually funnier than the original.

At first I used Jerboa, after some time it didn’t work anymore with my old instance. I switched to Voyager for a long time, switched instances as my old one got abandoned and defunct from the owner. After some time Voyager didn’t work anymore with my new instance and now I am using Raccoon.

If you’re capable of a language other than english, try the localized feddit.randomcountryTLD sites, like

Feddit.org (mostly german)

Feddit.nl (mostly dutch)

and so on. There are many of them and have just a little to nearly no american spam.

Looks pretty Omegaverse-y to me.

You know what? You’re absolutely right. “Went missing” is 100% the wrong term for this. It actually sounds too soft for what actually happened.

Damn, that means she was born in 1916. How has she perceived the failing of the Weimar Republic and the rising of the Nazis? Did she know any jews who “went missing” were deported after 1933? How did she survive the bombings?

Not trolling, I would just be genuinely curious. I’m german and I missed the chance to ask my grandpa (born 1925, died before I was interrested in stuff like that), who was in the Wehrmacht on the western front, about how he perceived this and the war itself.

Throwing errors? My dads Windows 8 machine does not throw any error. It’s just as slow as the continental drift. For years already he just keeps blaming his internet connection for that, which is obviously wrong because my Linux laptop works absolutly fine and responsive inside the same network. He doesn’t even think about it that his computer itself could be the problem. I suspect it is part of a botnet or some shit like that but he does not care what I say, so I don’t care about his online vulnerability. Because of all this I know that inconveniences do not necessarily convince a person to do something that’s needed to be done (use Linux or buy new device).

Many of the things you said are definitely right. But People who ACTUALLY need Windows for stuff like Photoshop or whatever would buy a new PC anyway. I think more of the casual “we always did it like that” kind of user. What do most of them need? Language localization, Firefox (or Chromium or for fucks sake even Edge), basic text editing and a basic PDF Viewer. For that kind of usage profile you definitely don’t have to force Windows 11 on your 12 year old PC. Any Linux can do that job like Windows would do, but without using scripts to force it on your machine and most likely with better performance too.

Well, that’s what I said. Old shitboxes and such. May be old, but would run like a charm with Linux. But is a shitbox because the installed OS (WIndows in this case) is completely obsolete.

People actually do this shit? Bruh. Why jump through hoops installing Windows 11 when installing Linux (the ones with graphical installer) is much easier and much less of a hassle? smh
