I want to like Tumbleweed, but every time I check for updates there’s like a gigabyte of them. I am probably going to switch to Leap at certain point. I don’t understand what’s the point of having latest stuff anyway. Unless you are gaming on your device I guess.

Get on my level

When I was younger I loved tech and everything related to computers. Now I am nearly 30, and I hate tech more each day. Not only it’s a waste of time, it becomes worse and less user friendly every year, full of nonsensical problems, AI bullshit and overall less control of our devices.

I need to finally buy a fucking bicycle, and spend some more time outdoors, or I will get crazy.

“Hey, wanna check out my credit card?”

One of the first things I do while migrating user to a new PC (or just giving one for newly employed person) is that I disable all useless Microsoft shit automatically starting up in the task manager.

You can still use the classic version of Outlook, that comes with latest Office. It is literally called “Outlook (classic)” in the start menu.

How do you get these AI an answers anyway?

Eh, I’d rather go for a walk with my dog. At least he won’t be sad.

You are very dedicated.

I am Polish, so it’s not that hard for me :) But I’ve made a huge mistake of not learning where to put an accent (ударение) on each word, so my pronunciation might be way off for some words. Also I try way too hard to make sentences that make sense in Polish, but in Russian they might sound weird. Lack of practice, I guess. But I definitely see progress over time when I talk to native speakers (Ukrainian refugees mostly).

Why are they making it harder for me to learn Russian and Turkish :/

There’s an online version of VS Code: vscode.dev (not sure if that’s official, though)

Edit: Oh, well… it cannot open and edit local files, making it useless at least for me.

To be honest I really think that an AI surprising human brain in many ways is a matter of time, but what people don’t tend to talk about is whether or not we are slowly approaching the limit what we can do with technology, because I already see tech progress slowing down in some areas.

If you’re using only Electron-based apps, why not use browser tabs for these?

8 GB is fine for basic tasks and it won’t change anytime soon.

Talk a walk, and then you might get some energy back. And even if you don’t, at least you have gone outside and improved mental health a bit in the process.

Enshittified internet and software made me no longer obsessed with technology, and instead I focused on other hobbies. And it also made my socialize more.

I don’t understand ads. Do people actually use services and buy products because of a shitty advertisement?
