Just upgraded my hardware so I can play Starfield. And I bought an extra SSD just to dual boot linux. My video card is so new I can't get the live usb to show any video.

Everyone else in my situation has to use the onboard graphics to install, but I have none. So I tried this time. But I've gotta use windows. it just works

It is the best Discord alternative, and it can be self hosted. But there's no interconnectivity between instances. So not really a fediverse alternative

Every Larian game so far was exactly like this, they always did early access for cheaper then went full price when it came out of early access.

BG3 was full price from the start, probably because of the money they had to pay WotC for licensing

Amazon changed some things at the beginning of the year, they made it very difficult to get the actual file in azw format. They only let you download kindle unlimited books in their secure kfx(?) format, which current DRM removal plugins are unable to process.

If you buy the book you can goto Content & Devices and download the book in azw3 format which can be processed by the DRM removal plugin.

From what I've read amazon is monitoring the sites where they're developing kfx bypass mechanisms and are sealing up those holes before a public release can be made. Which is irritating because I just hate the Kindle app and prefer MoonReader

EBook tracker, read their rules then hop on irc for an interview. You can use jackett/prowlarr with MaM to automate Readarr

#ebooks on IRCHighway has alot of newer books. Older books are more likely to be found on Undernet

It's Starfield I'm worried about. My system is below minimum specs. Helluva time to upgrade too

But it is, it's very reliable. So long as users don't install anything, and there's a quality paid antivirus solution and windows 11 gets blocked then very little will affect these installs.

As for security? Who cares. They're checking email and using Facebook. They're not running critical software, and as for reliability... Let me tell ya from an admin standpoint Linux is far from reliable, there's a very good reason companies pay money for support.

I love Linux, but it's my job. When I go home I just want the simplicity of Windows. Thanks to tons of useless certifications it does exactly what I tell it to do.

When family wants a new OS install I don't suggest Linux or even mention it's existence. They get a version of Windows 10 with the bloat ripped out and the inability to upgrade to Windows 11. 90% of tech support calls have been stopped.

What friends I have attempted to convert usually go back to Windows due to Nvidia driver issues but as we move forward and gaming becomes less of a hurdle maybe we'll see more converts. Especially if Windows keeps pushing their whole cloud OS thing.

I'm in the same boat, but thought I'd let people know just in case. My app of choice RelayForReddit is switching to a subscription model but 70% of my Reddit use was NSFW subs so not really worth it for me

Jerboa was ok, but things started to irritate me so I found Liftoff, which was a much more polished app. Currently using Connect for Lemmy as it's the closest to my original Reddit app

I know everyone has made the switch, but the ReVanced team have stolen the API keys out of the real Reddit app and have made patchers available for multiple Reddit apps including RiF.

You'll need a fresh copy of the APK and:

Obviously NSFW is a no go but everything else should work.
