M$ is like a boyfriend - you tell him “No, don’t touch me there!”

and an hour later his hands are wandering the same direction again…

That’s M$ intention, to hide some settings from users and lose control of Windows.

As I stated in other reply

This is just some of BS public stunts, they are trying to hide and create misinformation to deceive people. The mastermind of the online gambling issue here, is one of their cronies. A businessman, this guy being protected by top military brass and former general including a new elected president.

My guess? This is just PR from their politicians to say “they are saving the country” or whatever bullshit without actually doing anything useful

I’m curious, can we have something like automation in LibreOffice? I mean like in VBA, where I can pull data and export excel charts.

It’s been a month since I started journey with Linux Mint as my daily driver. I enjoy tinkering with things like PulseEffects (trying to create similar sound effects as in Windows). Also tried to customize Conky, but I think I need to learn Lua.

I also found out that my setup without a swap file / partition. I guess it because I use btrfs for the root partition, so the Mint installer replaced swap with some tmpfs folders. I only realized after I got stuck in OOM. 😂😂

Microsoft : first time?

Woahh thanks a lot Dave! Very interesting thread, I’ll try on my V14 first maybe also X240 later.

If you don’t have another windows machine then I think it’s a good idea to duel boot Windows initially. I’ve been running Linux as a daily driver the past couple of years but still occasionally do stuff in Windows. It’s pretty rare these days, though!

Yup I was thinking to start familiarize myself with Linux as a daily driver. I still need Windows for some times, because of .xlsx files from work used a lot of formulas and VBA.

Damn, a 40-year-old man is a boomer and he became a minister. This really sucks…

Just bought Lenovo laptop, and thinking to start using Linux as daily OS, dual boot with Windows as I still need Lenovo Vantage.

I mean Taupo lake looks a bit low?

Thank you for the information, yes it is a bit confusing for me, because the article doesn’t explain about low water levels.

Common enough; but I wonder if this is a symptom of new generation not keeping up with attempts to reduce emissions. Less coal/gas power generation & less wood-fired heating combining with a cold snap.

Yeah, I guess coal/gas power.still needed during the colder months.

“We will work with lines companies to, as a last resort, switch off power to locations for a short period of time.”

Asked if she could guarantee this wouldn’t happen during the colder months, Bramley said no.

“No power system can absolutely guarantee supply but as we’ve seen today, when industry comes together we can make sure there is enough in the system.”

I’m not sure this can be done more easily without root access as many Android services and Gapps are intertwined.

You can try this solution via ADB, this is just an example

pm uninstall --user 0 com.android.app

As for SMS app, I use QKSMS

I just saw this, it’s available on f-droid and play store

Deku SMS is an Android SMS app.

Deku SMS is being developed as a proof-of-concept for secure SMS messaging, SMS image transmission and SMS-Cloud communications.

This was on AP News the day before

Both the FBI and the Federal Communications Commission have warned that TikTok owner ByteDance could share user data — such as browsing history, location and biometric identifiers — with China’s authoritarian government. Biden in 2022 banned the use of TikTok by the federal government’s nearly 4 million employees on devices owned by its agencies, with limited exceptions for law enforcement, national security and security research purposes. The secretive and powerful Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States has been reviewing the app for years.
