He eventually found the executable by Googling for it online and is now part of a botnet.

fuck off

Windows is shitty—don't get me wrong. But for all my coursework it's pretty annoying to do on Linux. Especially Office, and yes I am well aware it's a MS product and that Linux-support will likely never come. Though the limited online version of Office or LibreOffice don't quite cut it for me. Besides, running it with Wine or in a VM is too much of a hassle.

So "Switch to Linux!" is not really a solution for some. Let's hope that'll change in the future.

With that said, fuck Microsoft! I use NixOS btw.

First and foremost, I want you to know I am proud of you for taking on this adventure.

Building a house is no small feat, and yes, it will take time. Though it's not like you're sitting still—you're proactive. Every day you are getting closer to your goal. Don't give up and hang in there! We believe in you!

Love this documentary! My professor made my class watch this and I must say that all of it just clicked.

Any skills you can market? Things you can craft? As many others have said—there is no quick way to earn money.

Gambling is an option, though you could lose it all. Not worth it in my opinion.

If you want money and want lots of it—find and solve problems. Look at the world, identify problems, and find marketable solutions.

Either way you'll have to grind.

I agree with you as well. Thought your comment was sane and reasonable. No clue why you were being downvoted to oblivion.

And then the bloke who says he'd rather create a female character, because he prefers to stare at her arse for hours.

Man, like, if one is that horny you're better off climaxing to something else—if you catch my drift.

Happy holidays bud!

It really was just a joke.

All good. Hard to tell when it's just text.

It can still be more pleasing for us to look at a pretty girl (if that is what we prefer) without getting horny.

You do you. Certainly not shaming. Still, I do find everything is being sexualised nowadays;

Ads, thumbnails, films, music, video games—almost the entire internet. Ever tried scrolling through All on Lemmy or Reddit? Won't take long for you to find erotica or something of the likes. YouTube and Twitch are even worse. Women creating content whilst partially showing and thousands of men throwing a bunch of money at them—or time for that matter (which gets them ad revenue). Not much different from OF if you ask me.

The problem is you can't escape it. And it's affecting children as well. They see all of it and think it's normal. Take a glance at TikTok and you'll understand.

In the end, I'd rather play a game for its story and gameplay instead of playing it for the "boobs and vags". There is enough of that already.

Sure is! Welcome to the club!

For me, it has been incredibly difficult to find a properly privacy oriented Linux distro that also has ease of use.

First of all, most distros already offer adequate privacy. It'll always beat Windows or MacOS—that's for sure.

Second, ease of use and privacy don't go hand in hand. The more privacy you want the harder it gets to use. The reason I emphasised privacy is because it's more anonymity at that point.

What is it you want? If it's privacy you're after you can't go wrong with most distros and using FOSS. If it's anonimity be prepared to make a ton of sacrifices. Have fun putting your laptop in a Faraday bag, routing all your traffic through Tor, visiting eepsites, disconnecting your webcam and microphone, only wiring money with Monero, and so forth.

My point is, there is no best of both worlds.

I was only joking, though I guess Lemmys need the /s to understand.

Don't have anything against systemd—as goes with anything—use whatever suits your needs.

More bloat.
