Ah, so there won’t be overflow of big bussiness 8th gen laptops… Nevermind, I’d still avoid 7th gen myself.

If I were to buy used laptop, I’d want 8th gen or newer because that’s where intel finally made more than dual core for mobile.

Checkmate! I don’t even have 180 mbps internet lane. Deal with it Microsoft!

I had a good fun with Bulletstorm. Kind of a game where you can put your brain on hold and enjoy the ride.

I see myself in this picture and I don’t like it :-(

Same here. I grew up in time and place where english was almost non existent for normal people. Then computers came, but they were gray bricks with no sound output outside PC speaker “beep beep”. But the language was there already. For many years english was just written form with zero pronounciation for me. And once we finally got teacher that actually could speak (and who wasn’t one lecture ahead of us) it was almost too late. That’s why I uderstand quite well, especially written text, but once I have to speak myself… people think I came from stone age or something.

When I was a kid I had hard time distinguishing between actor and role. So Kevin from Home Alone had to be that Kevin Costner the actor, right? Right!?

So it uses both? Interesting.

It used to be, it’s Bing nowadays I believe.

//edit: it says it uses google on the site, but I remember there was a bit of shitshow on the internetz ~year ago when they used bing instead. So… I’m confused now.

I got lost in this wordpress thing. Tried to read few (probably low quality informed-as-I-am) articles and now I’m even more lost. Can someone ELI5 what’s going on, who’s the good guy, who’s the bad guy, whether wordpress (product) is to be avoided, etc. Thank you.

I don’t recommend Zulip as Discord alternative. It’s interesting take on slack-ish type of messenger, but not really “polished” experience for now.

It will be done the same year when it’s finally “year of linux”… Sad, but seems to be the case.

Isn’t Falkon pretty much dead?

Ok, thank you and all the others for explanation.

That’s good one :-)

What about DoH/DoT which comes enabled by default in some browsers I believe? This should “hide” your activity from isp/router as well, shouldn’t it?

Indeed. I’d say majority of people nowadays need just one thing from their computer - working web browser. Mail, office suite, audio and video consumption, even graphic suite (e.g. photopea) is available, and widely adopted, in browser. And browsers behavesbvirtually the same whether on Windows or Linux, so yeah, put person in front of nicely packed Linux PC and chances are there won’t be many issues.

I’m not that informed on LOL, stopped playing it like decade ago, but isn’t it what I just said? More push on monetization. Might be subtle, but still it’s there.

Well, technically yes, but not under Tencent. These guys will squeeze Ubisofts balls even harder than shareholders do. All stuff that went under Tencent got worse or at least that’s what I remember.
