    Windows 7 Support Ending

    I love Linux. My computer feels like it's mine again mine. It does updates only when I say it's okay. Ads aren't constantly shoved down my throat. Windows 11 Home is plain egregious shoving One Drive down your throat. I can only suspend 'reminders' to back up to One Drive for 7 or 30 days at a...

    PC preferences

    I used to be bigger is better for both laptops and desktops now a days you have to buy a real piece a junk (aka Wal-Mart special) for it not to be able to handle web browsing, email, office, and stuff like that. My last few of desktops have been reconditioned boat anchor Dells off Amazon with a...

    Windows 7 Support Ending

    I've been dual booting all mine with Kubuntu for quite a while. My laptop came with 11 preinstalled. My desktop supposedly didn't meet the TPM requirements but somehow it 11 installed just fine with a regular W11 ISO from Microsoft. I figured there was no harm in trying. I spend pretty much...

    I still believe in Rick!! Need assistance with his Softjock software

    I dual boot and run Linux via Virtual Box. I don't play around with the hardware side that much but I do have an XP Pro ISO just sitting in my cloud storage. Maybe can figure something out? I don't have a copy of Rock It to play around with though.

    MSI Creater 17 laptop.

    I've been buying used boat anchors (aka old towers) as my last few computers. I make my living on the computer and am perfectly fine working with my 10 year old machine because most of my work is done server side. All I really need is a text editor and terminal window. Sure, I edit some photos...

    Looking for web hosting?

    We're encrypted by default. If I go to ourdjtalk.com I'm automatically redirected to https. We recently had a major upgrade this could be a regression but I doubt it.

    Device trends

    What about reception hall? That's what I've always heard them called in New York.

    Anyone buying anything new?

    Okay this is consumer grade so don't shoot me. :moncool: I bought the Air Pods Pro. These things are like magic. Granted they're the first pair of noise cancelling headphones I've owned; so I have nothing to compare them to but when I first popped them in to pair, I genuinely thought the power...

    How high does the price of fuel have to get for you to change your driving habits?

    I haven't been able to drive in over a year it's been kind of a blessing as I'd be spending a ton on fuel just to be driving around seeing friends, etc.

    SD card specifications

    You mentioned Spotify in another other post. If you're looking to cache Spotify on this card I can tell you it's a crap shoot. I have 128GB Samsung card in my Note 9 and opening Spotify with a large cache (20+GB) on external storage takes a long time. I guess it tries to enumerate each track on...

    T-mobile sent me a letter for a promotion.

    I hate to burst your bubble Mix but this really isn't a promo. It's what all the companies do now. You buy the phone over 24 months with 0% interest and the calling/data plan is billed separately.
