There’s a Cadmium SD standing by for action.

People are ditching Windows with good reasons. But, hey, de gustibus non disputandum est. my two cents: Your life is nice with microsoft products, but can be so much better without it.

Keep farming your ego then. have fun.

why not write an email to google then. don’t make solutions popular

don’t make solutions popular.

I really had a hard time with the chinese names, especially the ones that sounded similar.

I mean, Lutris, Protonup-qt and Winetricks get the job done pretty easily and fast once you learn how to use them.

Any modern Thinkpad will run any Linux distro easy, from bios updates up to gaming with Proton. Dell laptops also have a good linux support. Try to avoid laptops with Nvidia cards though, AMD driver installation is way easier if not completely invisible/painless.

probably everyone realized that google is peeking in your private business anyway so it’s ok to continue use cheap stuff + no play services installed.

Blood Lake CPUs

good to know, no one is imposing anything here.

If I may: a good name is good. a name that combines well with the surname is great. Think of Star Wars names: they are great because they mate good names and surnames. Han Solo Boba Fett Cassian Andor etc…

That said, my personal preference is something REALLY old, like Sargon, first ruler of Akkadian Empire, 2400BC. Bonus He/she/they could have also their own personal cuneiform name tattoo: 𒊬𒊒𒄀. Now tell me that’s not cool.

good hunting.

The only pc i have with that shit on is the work laptop. Thanks to proton i ditched microsoft for good.

I went through plex and emby but i finally settled for jellyfin. It has just what i need, a pleasant and minimal interface and it has a light footprint on my rpi. plus is free so no plex premium bullshit stuff.

Flashback. There’s something cinematographic in that old Delphine gem.

I feel you. There’s only one antidote: time.

• It’s good to make a disclaimer to anyone around you at work, family, etc. You will be more nervous and you cold act like an ass sometimes. You can bet on it.
• Don’t take important decisions in the next month.
• You will gain weight. Less smoke brings more food cravings. Try to compensate with walking.
• Find something to fill your mouth. I used Liquorice root (helps me also with low blood pressure so it was a no brainer for me).
• Keep on keeping on (cit.). You’ll have now and then desire, not need, desire to come back smoking. Compensate that with the thought of being free. Good Luck mate.

Imho it’s better to go to the root of the problem. F-droid. FOSS apps, no ads, no google.
