For windows users and dual booters, you might not want to update windows 10 for a week or so...

How to shoot yourself in the foot with Microsoft products on Ubuntu. 🤣 Sorry, just being a smart aleck here. I can't imagine why I would ever do this. If it were somehow not a chrome clone, then maybe, but no...

I love all people. Even those that say and do evil things. I may hate their acts, but I do not hate them. Everyone is able to change their bad ways, to be a better person.

I just found this dude named Tom MacDonald. I can't stand most rap. It's not the style, it's the horrible lyrics. But this dude, wow. I hate hip hop! https://youtu.be/V7lLgDVjYn4

I wax poetic about Thunar file manager, because apparently file managers excite me. 🤣 http://dennygoot.blogspot.com/2021/01/thunar-file-manager-my-favorite-linux.html

and i leave hidden folders visible all the time, because i'm in them so very often.

Yes, I use thunar instead of gnome 3's file manager. Why? It's so less buggy, so much faster, and has so many wonderful add-ons.. it's my absolute favorite file manager in Linux.

Talking with people this morning about using Linux, and I realized that I am a very boring Linux person. My desktop is practically vanilla Ubuntu. Very small visible changes. I don't really care how my machine looks, i care how workflow feels and how things work. Which is why I am *cringe* a gnome 3 user (it's such a resource hog!) and which is why I am am Ubuntu user. I like it when things work with minimal "human vs computer battles".

Apple fan boy: I don't like this device, it costs less than my apple stuff, and does more than the apple stuff does.

Me: Are you brain damaged, or what?

This is, shall I say, cathartic.

I miss the time when computers had pop out coffee holders. :D

7 feet of beer, anyone? I can't imagine most people fitting this behemoth in a car easily...

I was talking in my Linux group about the new Nvidia's RTX 3090's password cracking ability, and i told them:

"Most of my customers "passwords" could be cracked by a trs80 from 1977. Passwords like their dogs name, their favorite car model... i yiy yiy..."
