I’m just glad both hands are on the phone…but yeah, I’d be moving somewhere else or something.

AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS w/ Radeon 780M Graphics 3.80 GHz 16.0 GB DDR5 @ 5600
With the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU I ensured bios were setup, attempted to install and it didn’t even show an error when selecting to install or live test and install. The device just restarted and nothing. I’m actually going to give it another try, I made a fresh USB for it, it’s worth a fair attempt. I know the GPU is gonna probably be unusable, but I was looking at Qubes for 80% of my tasks.

Nice, I’ll check it out! I only plan on still having it installed because some exams I take might not work in a VM. Literally the only reason I plan to dual boot.
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
I’ve probably had less then a dozen web ads in the last year, I’ve blocked them as much as possible.
My main issue is I paid for Windows and still get ads, its annoying. But I comprehend your perspective. It wouldn’t have bothered me as much if a “Do not remind me again” option was there.
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
What I’m probably going to do is reinstall windows 11, complete updates, run de-bloater. Then install Ubuntu along side windows (super easy) and disable Ubuntu Telemetry. Use Ubuntu as primary for just about anything, have a win VM if I can use it or worst case Windows still available if I absolutely need it.
I wanted to try Quebes but my device isn’t compatible. Having Win installed, I could use it strictly for gaming too if I wanted.

Nah, I understand. I just didn’t comprehend lol But yes, I agree!

Different rephrasing helped, yes, thank you.
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
I’ll give that a try, thank you.

And then they wonder why american men have a mental health crisis. Well, buddy, part of it is you.
What part of any of that makes it partly because of me? This seem more like an off-topic rant.
I am an American and the only two I’ve heard is:
“don’t masturbate because touching a penis is gay”
Every time has been religion driven homophobia related.
don’t get prostate exams (this one may be more self-explainitory, doesn’t make it right though).
Goes back to the last one as well.
Probably why religion has been on a decline.
- Comment on why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread? 1 year ago:
Thank you for your reply. After yours and others replies, I’ve went ahead and order one to give it a try. I just hadn’t really explored the idea before. Thanks for the information!
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
I think I would trust an unknown 3rd parties ISO more then the stock Windows at this point really…
- Comment on why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread? 1 year ago:
Thank you for your reply. I hadn’t really explored the idea of using one before coming across this post. I figured it would be in some way complementary but based on other comments it wasn’t really clear. I’ve decided to give a cheaper one on Amazon a try another person recommended.
- Comment on why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread? 1 year ago:
One pack of TP since!? That’s incredible! Thank you for your reply, I have decided to give it a try to see how it goes. Just never really explored the idea before.
- Comment on why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread? 1 year ago:
Thank you for addressing my concerns, adjustable pressure would be a key thing. After a few other replies as well, I have actually ordered one to give it a try.
- Comment on why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread? 1 year ago:
Yes, tell us more about how hard something is that, by your own admission, you don’t understand lmao
Point being that it requires time and money to implement, and stated as uneducated concerns in hopes of more information.
“No problem to solve” you realize you’re just smearing shit across your asshole with paper. No problem to solve eh?
Again, point being its been a trusted method for a very long time.
But no, the water makes it messier, not smearing literal shit over yourself, that’s definitely cleaner, yep
As stated, uneducated and I’m sure most could see spraying shit all over the place could be a concern if you’ve never used one before.
Your response was completely unhelpful.
- Comment on why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread? 1 year ago:
I was referring to spraying shit everywhere. As stated uneducated on the topic but its a valid concern. 😂
- Comment on why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread? 1 year ago:
At least they are easily identifying themselves. After careful thought, I kinda feel like this should violate public indecency laws.
- Comment on why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread? 1 year ago:
I really just don’t like the idea of it, feels like a very uncomfortable situation for me. But I’m pretty uneducated on the topic.
- It’d have to be warm water
- Wouldn’t it be messer, spraying it all over?
- Don’t you still have to wipe, ya know cause your wet now.
- Too much work to implement when the TP has been successful (No problem to solve)
- Comment on why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread? 1 year ago:
*Really? Lots of shit.
- Comment on why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread? 1 year ago:
I have never heard that and it deeply disturbs me because this does seem like it’d be an American thing…
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
I literally do not have anything extra turned on, including the Insider Program has always been off. Other then automatic updates, so your guess is as good as mine as why “Preview” updates or otherwise would be pushed. It’s not that I’m enrolled in beta or anything.
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
Completely agree.
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
I understand, the only options I see is added from update or triggered by the update as I’ve never gotten this window before and it restarted to this screen like I had to do it.
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
I do believe there is a up tick in Linux users these days, probably not enough though. The main downside the the popular use of Windows in business, if they get converted Microsoft would probably really struggle even with their other markets.
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
Is there a way to put alt text in lemmy? I could see the benefit especially for screen readers. I could only see putting it in the content section right?
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
What Distro? I use Ubuntu and sometimes tails for personal use. This weekend, I think I’m just going to setup a Windows VM instead and maybe try out Quebes if I can get that to work.
I only NEED it for a couple low resource applications, hell maybe it’ll run in wine.
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
Primarily for drivers and security updates.
You have a point, I could turn off updates and manually update as I need too but my frustration is that there are ads in the first place.
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
Yeah, I’m going to see about Quebes or just running VM inside Ubuntu at this point.
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll have a look!
- Comment on Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff 1 year ago:
Yeah, I did give them a try at one point primarily for windows login but too many privacy concerns and yes, I agree their products don’t work for me either. Especially OneDrive and Edge has always been a pain coming built in.
