Whatever this is, it doesn’t work well without prior understanding of whatever this manga is and how that Sci-Fi gun works. Who’s firing at who? What in the fuck is even going on? If Windows is veering off target then why are we seeing people blown up like it was successful?

I’m guessing that your joke is that all the Linux variants are some overcharged killshot, but Windows can’t hit the target? But then some of the panels make no sense.

So is this is in essence “I drew myself as the chad and you as the sad soyjak, that means I win!”?

Where funny?

Comic is Oglaf. It’s brilliant, but quite NSFW. That is one of the relatively few SFW strips.

There is no world in which the barely marginal convenience outweighs the additional cost (and near certain privacy invasion of a microphone equipped dryer).

I’m fairly sure the update cadence is set by the game dev/publisher, not GoG.

This has nothing to do with Linux and everything to do with using unfamiliar equipment and/or software. I’ve gotten those comments on seprarate occasions from having command prompt up and from having an IDE up in dark mode. Also from using an external HDD, external sd card reader/writer, wired mouse, and wired keyboard back when external hdds were relatively niche. Too many wires I guess.

Welcome to Linux Memes.

Why can a shape tool not be pixel based? There’s no intrinsic requirement for vectors.

Or speed. Some of the homebrew mods are ridiculous.

XCom and XCom 2 can be played entirely with the mouse. Minor typing if you want to name your soldiers, but nothing requires quick reflexes. Everything is turn based.

There’s an older breakout style game on steam called Shatter that can be played entirely with the mouse and has a banger soundtrack and neat visual style.

Emulation opens up a lot of options for old school turn based games. RPGs, turn based strategy. Any of the Pokemon games gen 1-3 can be played one handed with some clever button mapping. Any game made to use just the Wii-mote as a pointer would also work, but I don’t know those off the top of my head.

You might want to look into one handed controllers, or something like the FLIR USB dongle that you can use to map IR TV remote signals to keyboard button presses. Just need to use a remote that doesn’t already control something.

Have you tried tossing the URLs into yt-dlp? That’s the go-to software for downloading video from streaming sites.

Which one of the four spiritual successors is this one now?

You’re making a huge assumption based only on the fact that Windows hides these logs from the end user.

I’ve had line of sight to those logs through a system that automatically highlights those errors and warnings for something like eight years now, for a fleet of over 1000 Windows machines at the start which is now roughly 5000 total.

In that time I’ve seen less than 200 graphics driver issues logged, and they all were on machines with failing hardware.

Yes, they are not anywhere as visible to the end user as they are on Linux, but they are also significantly less common (graphics issues in particular).

Also, if the warnings are meaningless, why display them to the end user? It’s just more noise that actual problems can sneak by in.

So when someone uses random sludge instead of ink and breaks the printer they can point at that as the cause.

It’s basic CYA. They’ll let you do whatever you want, but if something goes wrong and it breaks then you’re on your own.

https://rentry.co/MR-EverythingWindowsExplained#installing-windows has further info, but tl;dr- install without a key, then use MASgrave after it’s installed.

I honestly don’t remember the specifics of how I’ve got my Pro install configured for updates. I think it doesn’t notify of available updates until they’ve been out a month (keeps me from pulling down a bleeding edge update that causes more problems than it fixes), downloads them so they’ll auto-install on shutdown/restart for a week, and if I don’t uodate that week then it flashes up the “your organization requires you to update by [next week]” message. I don’t think it actually forces when that week runs out, so you’re probably right, but it’s been a long time since I’ve went two whole weeks without shutting down or rebooting.

I do know that I’ve got “feature updates” (read OS changes) set to only be available if I manually install them. So the whole “Windows forces you to upgrade to 11” complaint is pure BS at least.

You can totally stop updates on Windows. Fully off. They don’t offer good options for updating on demand on your own schedule, but you can disable updates entirely and for pro and enterprise skus you can use GPO for additional delay options.

That’s a bit of a spoiler, isn’t it?

I used to have that up at my desk when I did tech support.

Because billions is an absurd understatement, and computer have constrained problem spaces far less complex than even the most controlled life of a lab rat.

And who the hell argues the animals don’t have free will? They don’t have full sapience, but they absolutely have will.

Hey, I think you forgot the link. Sounds fun!
