Using something other than windows as your primary OS, and interfacing with windows through a virtual machine where necessary.

Not really a real solution, though, but some folks make it work pretty well.

Likes/upvotes are “Yeah!”s and there are miis associated with each post

My point was that it’s one of a very short list of free top-level domains, and was likely chosen because it was free and didn’t have the same reputation that, say, .tk had.

I doubt that was literally their intent, it’s just a free TLD

Probably “shiny gold”- it was super impressive for the time period but was never finished officially and didn’t age super well.

Lowe’s uses a customized Linux distro for their department terminal computers. Most of what you do is in browser or terminal applications, if genesis is still in use.

Because Microsoft isn’t responsible for every program that runs on their OS.

CrowdStrike is an EDR that enterprises choose to install. The bug was caused by a dodgy content bundle update, which is something that’s meant to be 100% safe but evidently they found and triggered a bug.

Thanks for posting this for awareness! I love this theme now

Hell yes I’m so excited for graphics

But, eventually exploitable is still a pretty major concern for anybody who has systems running longer than a few days at a time.

Satellite sos was only available on 14 or newer on release, which is even less support for the prior gen than apples intelligence features (which at least supports the pro lineup from the prior gen, as well as every apple silicon Mac released)

I think where valve went wrong was not requiring specific minimum specs. It led to a very inconsistent and hard to support platform.

Steam deck leading to a standard “steam device” hardware platform with consistent OS and hardware is my dream, but I know their goal thus far has been to refine steamos and release it for OEMs to use on their devices.

The Wii didn’t officially support dvd playback (and didn’t support hardware video decoding of typical dvd codecs, so few dvds worked with the homebrew software to enable it)

Massgrave is a tool that can create legit (oem) keys for windows and office out of thin air*

• it’s not literally creating them from nothing, it’s using a system Ms themselves run to get working keys. Evidently they don’t have a huge problem with it.

It’s not unheard of in folks who are in software dev because they love the repetition and routine. Farming is pretty similar to programming a computer, just with tons more manual labor.

Umami has been pretty good to me. Plausible was a close choice but I ran into technical difficulties getting it going.

I didn’t get around to trying it, but goatcounter looked promising as well.

Classicube for that simple block-building itch

Classicube is pretty sick

It was more common for commercial discs and some consumer discs to have the data layer sandwiched between the bottom surface and label layer, especially later in cd/dvd’s heyday, to prevent tiny scratches on the label or sharpie marks from destroying bits in the data layer.

Cinavia! Allegedly it’s still around and mandated in all consumer Blu-ray players.
