one trying to score some bitches.
build a linux version for exactly 0 pay and a pat in the back then
Go to your desktop and hit Alt+F4. For all the Jeet shit that's poured over Windows, the huwhite man's influence on the OS lives on.
The real white man's way to lock your desktop in Windows is the winkey+L shortcut.
Yes, that too.
I thought of that too, long power off, unplug the battery and all that and it didn't work. After initially checking my dock on another machine and it working fine I assumed it was a software issue and proceeded to reinstall everything under the sun to no effect.
USB-C docking stations are by nature cursed. Ove never had one that wasn't problematic in one way or another even with Linux. I wish we would go back to the old proprietary connectors or something that works reliably
, everything else has 3D NAND. But this is something to be aware of if you have Windows 11. Hopefully they fix this fast.
Yet another reason to turn off windows updates entirely. This is worse than with XP where every few updates could fuck your PC.Feel this is more a software+hardware issue
Latest Windows 11 security patch might be breaking SSDs under heavy workloads — Phison investigating reports of disappearing drives following file transfers, including some that cannot be recovered after a reboot
Here are a list of tested and affected drives that did and did not get fucked in the Windows 11 security update

Notably WD Blue M.2 SSD's got turbofucked and couldn't be retrieved.
The error occurs when downloading 50gb or more at once. Seems to affect drives without NAND more.
Now my rig is all SSD's, 1 SATA, 3 M.2. I haven't noticed any issues. I also haven't been making heavy downloads to my one MLC Kingston NV2 drive I use for file storage so... idk
Hey, it could always be worse. Like going back to the XP era of clicking on a wrong link running an RCE that assrapes your PC to Uranus and back.
Today it's hard to fuck your PC up by clicking on random links thanks to Windows Defender, ad blockers, etc. The new attack vector is Micro$oft's updates.
The AI does it for free (in the sense without human intervention) now instead.
The reason is that from the clusterfuck that was Longhorn we got Vista, which has successfully solved all the issues that made XP such a mineland. Process elevation is now separate so a web browser doesn't have admin rights by default, just about all RCE's used to fuck up XP got patched and many more. Of course no one ever credits Vista for making Windows actually usable and attributes all of it to 7 which was a more polished Vista without the name that people subconsciously attribute with a dogshit OS, and it got released in a time where the average computer was able to run Vista no problem, unlike when it released, with Microsoft allowing the "Vista compatible" sticker on machines that were too weak for it.
RCE means remote code execution. Back in XP days it used to be that everything ran as admin and there were exploits in certain file formats that would run viruses on your computer from just loading them, which is why going to goggle.com could ruin your PC. AI didn't suddenly make those a thing again.
Except Microsoft didn't make it, they've commissioned it back in 1996. The name of the composer was Stan LePard and he unfortunately died back in 2021 at the age of 64 from a brain hemorrhage. He uploaded a lot of his music to his SoundCloud, including Velkommen, which is more commonly known as the Windows XP OOBE music.
Truth. I used it for a few years on a PC that was powerful enough to handle it and couldn't understand why everyone was saying it was slow and shitty. A lot of people's complaints about Windows can be solved by having a PC that can actually run the OS and spending ten minutes when you install the operating system to remove the bullshit.
oh cool I didn't know that, it looks like he's done music for alot of video games aswell seemed like a pretty cool dude RIP
Agreed. Grew up on Vista until we switched to 10 in the house (only used 7 in schools). It worked, and basically was an early build of Windows 7. Your hardware needed to be somewhat modern, but it would do everything you'd expect of an OS of its time. Also the style was really cool)
Visras biggest problem was that it's system requirements were not properly communicated and manufacturers were selling computers advertised as compatible when they were not
