Microsoft Will Charge for Windows 10 Security Updates in 2025
  • Yeah, but there is almost never a need for keeping an older version of linux, unlike for Windows 10 since win11 has ridiculous system requirements

  • Question: is systemd-homed ready for everyday use yet?
  • Never used systemd-homed, but i know an alternative to full disk encryption is having the root partition unencrypted, and the home partition unlocked at boot. For a single user machine at least, i don't see any difference when using it than unlocking at login. But then having 2 partitions is mandatory, and that may be a problem when running out of space.

  • Google's search results are starting to become contaminated with SEO optimized AI-hallucinated fake information.
  • today's search results are horrible, there are ai generated articles that just happen to contain your question but barely answer it, and also websites that copy stackoverflow and others content (and eventually translate it VERY badly)

  • Exclusive: Google Pixel 9 processor won't be the ambitious chip we hoped for
  • not any phone. And you have to rely on someone to maintain the build. And hope that it's stable. And the manufacter has to allow unlocking bootloader without sacrificing a goat.

  • The Veluwemeer Aqueduct: Netherland's Unique Water Bridge
  • my brain took way too long to understand the picture

  • The Design is Very Human
  • it's mostly for touchpads, I find it better as it mimics the behaviour on phones touchscreen but sometimes I disable it

    I hope nobody uses it on a mouse

  • unholy software..
  • huh every time I plug my Logitech receiver in a different port I get a notification about a driver installation, fortunately it's almost instant on my new pc but it's still weird that we need that in 2023

  • They say use whatsapp, they say use zoom
  • ah too bad, I had looked up about the WhatsApp bridge thing but was too lazy to setup the bridge, I was hoping there would be Publix bridges (although bad for privacy)

    Guess I'll have to threaten convince my friends to use matrix

  • They say use whatsapp, they say use zoom
  • But you have to setup a custom synapse bridge for element right ? Or did you find public servers ?

  • Firefox to become first mobile browser to support desktop extensions later this year
  • oh I didn't know, pretty cool

    at least both chromium and Firefox get a version with add ons

  • Firefox to become first mobile browser to support desktop extensions later this year
  • Doesn't it already support them ?

    edit: yes it already supports them, but it seems that now there will be more focus on mobile

    edit2: also they forgot about kiwi, but then it's not a major browser (and is it still maintained ?). still would've been cool if they corrected this

  • Why do comment counts often disagree with what I see?
  • There is the same problem on reddit, so they brought it here too so new users won't be disoriented (/s)

  • FYI LibreOffice Draw allows you to open, edit and digitally sign PDF files
  • But can it edit text fields ? like not drawing over them but changing the actual text stored

  • Always at the worst times too
  • Neat now I will remember this meme and laugh whenever I'm supposed to stay serious

  • PSA for people trying out Wine/Proton for the first time
  • I read on the github that there is a registry key to set to fix this problem

  • PSA for people trying out Wine/Proton for the first time
  • Did you symlink the compdqta folder um don't remember it's been too long..

    Also I heard winbtrfs in windows isn't as stable as ntfs3 in Linux :(

    I'm trying to share stuff between the os because I lack so much space (500 Go for Windows + nixos + my old fedora silverblue parution that still has data I have to clean) fortunately I'm soon upgrading to 1To but I'll probably fill everything again in a fews months 😅

  • PSA for people trying out Wine/Proton for the first time
  • ah too bad, I thought I finally had a solution for the lack of storage.. I'll probably do it anyway just in case I need quick access to one Linux game but the rest of the time I'll keep them on the ntfs

  • PSA for people trying out Wine/Proton for the first time
  • Ah I wish I read that sooner, when the ntfs3 driver was released I moved my games to an NTFS partition, i don't remember precisely but some wouldn't work, and then unlike my ext4 or btrfs partition which were unbreakable, a lot of things became unreadable and undeletable after a forced shutdown. Probably my fault, but in any case i think it's not worth the hassle. I only had games on it fortunately so didn't lose anything significant

    ...and now I'm planning on making a btrfs partition for my games and using winbtrfs to use it on windows as well, probably another bad idea but I wanna do it so badlybadly

    EDIT: Yup, it was a bad idea, sometimes getting blue screens when trying to empty the trash on the btrfs

  • Anyone who downloaded the GOG Baldur's Gate 3 release from 1337x, scan with Malwarebytes asap!
  • It doesn't matter, inux does not rely on extensions, so you can name a Linux executable .exe .bin or anything. When I was learning ocaml that's what our teacher was naming his executables.

    but plz don't do it it's cursed and I hate it, thank you

  • Build a PC @lemmy.ca Mininux @sh.itjust.works
    90A duet rail or 75A direct VRM for 13700K (maybe overclocking) ?

    Hi, i plan on building a pc soon using an i7 13700K and i hesitate between the MSI Z790 tomahawk and Z690 force. There is like a 10€ difference of price between them (in france) so not significant.

    The Z790 Tomahawk has a 16 duet rails power system, i don't really understand what it means but i saw the z690 force has a direct 18 phases power system, which i think is better from what i read ? However they say the tomahawk has a 90 A VRM while the force has 75 A.

    So i'm wondering what is the most important for a potential overclock, direct phase or total current ? (i could also be completing mixing things up and misunderstood the descriptions)

    Also the z690 force has a true debug display with digits, so that's interesting, but the z790 tomahawk has more 3.2 usb ports and one more usb-c port...

    Thx in advance
