Wait, Vortex doesn’t work on Linux? Seriously!? God fucking damnit, I’m going to be stuck with Windows forever.
I can’t go back to the old days of manually installing and updating mods by hand. Those were some rough times, and I never want to relive them again.
Audacity sold out and is now spyware; use Tenacity instead.
In the early 2000s there was this website called dll-files.com or something like that, and every time that error popped up (which happened a lot in the 90s and 2000s), you’d go to that website, download the missing file, and 99% of the time it would fix the problem. These days I’d advise against obtaining random DLL files from the internet but back then it was like magic.
Don’t sign into Windows with an online account. You can still do offline only accounts and it fixes this problem. The Microsoft Store still works too but IDK why you’d use that.
I vibe coded an autohotkey script to automate most of my job. It works reasonably well, and frees up enough time that I can now get paid to browse the web. The only part I can’t automate with a vibe-coded script is physically moving documents to the scanner, but if I figured out a way to automate that with robotics then my company wouldn’t need me anymore.
I’m sorry I don’t follow this company’s actions as closely as you do. I can’t even remember the last time I used Oracle-branded software. (Unless you count MySQL, which I’ve never had an issue with. It just works.)
Oh so it’s a greed thing, but not quite a Nestlé level of evil thing, then. Meh.

Since when did they change the logo from a fedora to… this bullshit?
Since when does Facebook have a distro?
Shit like this is why building websites is no longer fun for me like it was back in the 90s and 2000s. There’s way too much security shit to worry about now.
Don’t worry, you’ll eventually get over your feelings of obligations towards others before you reach 40. Life becomes a lot less stressful once you stop giving a fuck about being a people-pleaser.
IDK you tell me. I’ve never heard of it.
Whatever happened to just talking to each other? I’m glued to my devices all day every day, yet even I ignore the phone during holiday family gatherings.
Nobody’s forcing you to go; if you prefer be on the internet rather than interacting with your family, please just stay home.
Edit: Downvotes be damned, I stand by what I said. If this asocial shut-in who hasn’t had a friend since 2014 (because people annoy me) can come out of my shell a few times a year, and spend some time with the people I grew up, so can you. No excuses.
One day they will all be dead or estranged, and you will regret not looking up from your phone for two hours to spend quality time with them when they were alive and in your life, as you die alone in your nursing home (assuming you’re rich enough to afford assisted living, that is). Don’t say you aren’t warned.
TIL
But if you use Windows for any reason, I’d still recommend O&O cause it disables nearly every annoyance the OS has. MSEdgeRedirect and StartAllBack fix the remaining problems with Win11 (stops Windows from ignoring your default browser settings, and restores removed Start menu features, respectively).
You can disable that shit with O&O Shutup 10

Yeah but when it’s a total crapshoot as to whether or not its summary is accurate, you can’t trust it. I adblocked those summaries cause they’re useless.
At least some of the competing AIs show their work. Perplexity cites its sources, and even ChatGPT recently added that ability as well. I won’t use an LLM unless it does, cause you can easily check the sources it used and see if the slop it spit out has even a grain of truth to it. With Gemini, there’s no easy way to verify anything it said beyond just doing the googling yourself, and that defeats the point.
I recommend to most people that you just BeYourself, so long as that means you won’t Be an OSshole.
