Welp, it’s finally happened. Windows 10 has become so bloated, slow, and spooky that I finally have decided to bite the bullet and set up a VM on my linux Mint partition.

I have noticed that some CAPTCHA pages, like Cloudflare’s, simply ask you to check a box to proceed. There is no clicking on traffic lights or entering characters. How does clicking on a check box tell them I am not a robot?
I’ve been running Manjaro for a a few years now and don’t have very many gripes with the os opposed to some people that seem to hate it. The one major problem I have been battling is the random GPU resets under load for my 5600xt. Usually it’s when I’m playing semi intense games but sometimes just while watching YouTube....

My girlfriend has never really gamed. But she’s now forced to move less than she would like to (health problem) and she’s getting bored. I was thinking of introducing her to a game or two that we could play together. She’s not the real action game type, and seeing as she has no experience with controller/mouse and keyboard...

For those, who do not know what the Gemini protocol is, think of it as a modern, light-weight HTTP alternative without CSS or JavaScript. In layman term, you could see it as Web 1.0 reinvented. It uses GemText instead of HTML. For folks who want to try it out, you can either install a Gemini extension for your HTTPs browser...

I recently went for a period of about 1.5 months in which I was eating very little due to some psych trauma work I was doing and a lifelong history of ARFID.

Dell has been really good about shipping Dev versions of their XPS lineup which include Ubuntu by default instead of Windows. However, the new 2024 14" and 16" don’t show it as an option. Did they stop offering linux dev versions?
