Your camera settings are almost exactly what I see at night except my vision has more "flares" that extend to the end of my vision.

I rarely drive at night.

If you like the automation in that pack and want a game similar you should try factorio. A more friendly introduction to the genre would be shapez.io.

It used to not work like that when shorts first came out, there wasn't even a bottom bar iirc this must be an old meme

My favorite part of Arch is reinstalling it over and over again. That first successful boot after the install gives too much dopamine.

Knowing a few people running lubuntu doesn't make it an average. That is just a personal bias.

From experience almost all the computers I serviced over the last few years were either bought at Walmart, Best buy or Amazon that could also be a bias, but it spans over multiple cities with a good hundred clients The only time I started to see computers that were consistently bought from the manufacturer is in a business environment. But the specific one I'm in doesn't support Linux at all within production.

Ah I just checked there used to be a loophole by going through a disability program or using an alternative authentication method provided by Microsoft that would activate the 10 license after the update. Looks like it was patched in September 2023 though.

The average consumer either doesn't go to the manufacturer site or doesn't care enough to look into alternatives. They want something that gets their school/work done.

As some in the IT field who regularly deals with people that have a 4+ year degree and then tell me they are "tech illiterate" is astounding.

In the past they were hand held so much that the previous techs had a password book of everyone's password for multiple applications.

Luckily with a lot of pushback from our current members about how insecure and dangerous that is that has changed, but we still have users even after 3 years since the change message us through a depreciated system asking for their password.

Correct, but that's cost is only if you buy windows 11 for a machine that has never had windows on it,

11 is free for any windows user that has 10. It also comes pre installed on most PCs you buy and very rarely is that cost of the license noted on the device your buying (unless you use the customize settings on an online store)

I'm also pretty sure there are still ways to upgrade to 10 from 7 and 8. Windows did this to make it harder for people to switch to a different OS because most people remember when they had to "pay" to upgrade to the latest version.

The key word in this post is uniquely popular. This is most likely cherry picked data.

Honestly I didn't know Kirta was free because the first time I saw it was on Steam, later found out it was free but it's such a good product I'm happy I found it there first.

It's going to take a bit to get used to, but I'm like Lemmy for the most part.

Haven't removed my reddit account, but I only have one sub that is still online at this point.

Really does feel like they killed a giant.
