And a lot less people posting "what's something that used to be cool, but isn't now?" posts every single day. It's gotten to the point where I can usually guess what the top answer will be.
I'm convinced they made iTunes for windows run like shit on purpose.
I'm sure it's going to magically run 100 times better on iPhone.
There's very few people that hear about Linux and then switch over the next day. It's something that needs to fester in your head for a while. I didn't start using Linux full time until like a decade after I tried it for the first time
I can totally see it happening because these companies are so dead set on cutting costs that they're not seeing the bigger picture.
Only a matter of time before the economy collapses because all these companies replace their workers with AI, only to find that no one can buy their services because everyone is out of a job.
It doesn't help that the AI answer it gives takes up like half the screen and takes 30 seconds to load. LLMs are great for asking complex questions, but that's not what I want to use a search engine for.
I don't think Google can be beat when it comes to searching local businesses, but otherwise you might as well go straight to Wikipedia.
They could have had the best helicopter in the world. They still shouldn't have been flying it in those weather conditions.
Let's use Tor Browser as an example since that's one of the programs that typically gets installed with a tarball. Once you've downloaded and extracted the tarball, you'll want to navigate to the extracted files. You can do this in the terminal using CD commands, but I think it's easier and a little more intuitive to just use your file manager and navigate to the folder that way. Once you're in the correct folder, you'll want to right click on an empty space and select "open and terminal." Now you'll have a terminal open and it will already be in the correct directory. From here you'll want to run the "start-tor-browser.desktop" script. To do this, simply type ./start-tor-browser.desktop and you'll be able to follow along from there.
Running programs from a Tar image typically involves running a script. You just have to change the name of the script to match whatever they have in the directory. Auto complete is your friend here. You don't have to actually type the entire name of the script, you only need to type the first few letters and then hit tab.
A tar file is similar to a ZIP file. The easiest way to uncompress them is by using your file manager and right clicking.
Problem is is that is that too many people insist on doing things the Windows way and they get frustrated because of it. For example, instead of going to the software center, they choose to download their programs from a website, even though that's not how you're supposed to do it most of the time. They'll also spend hours trying to get Windows only programs to run, when there are alternatives available that work just as well.
I've seen a bunch of ads on Facebook where it's a deepfake of either Elon or Mr Beast. Just goes to show that Meta doesn't give a fuck and will let anything through if you pay them.

If someone is running towards your wife with a knife, are you going to wait for him to stab her before you shoot him?
Shortly after Columbine, my school banned backpacks and if you brought a lunch box to school, they would want to search it.
Following in porn's footsteps I see. Can't pause a video without getting an ad shoved in front of your face.
That's Europa. The thinking is that Europa may have life in its oceans beneath the ice that feed off of geothermal vents and therefore don't require any sunlight.
