Few things…

• Style is absolutely horrible…
• Rules are WAY worse then any lemmy I’ve seen.
• Pretty sure visiting that site put me on a watch list.

There are so many lemmy instances to join instead lol https://join-lemmy.org/

lemmy.world isn’t in the US, at least right now.

Sincerely appreciate your work to better this instance and the fediverse in it’s entirely.

Sounds like a plan! It’s a 100% beneficial thing, it should clean it up a bit.

I’m just glad both hands are on the phone…but yeah, I’d be moving somewhere else or something.

Legit.

The legend. ✌️

Awesome, sounds great! Don’t plan on joining Mastodon but options are good.

I’m seriously thinking your post was meant as a joke. There is so much information in these comments already about piracy. Your on a completely separate area and obviously not familiar with laws. Check out google.

The crime of taking a photo has nothing to do with piracy.

AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS w/ Radeon 780M Graphics 3.80 GHz 16.0 GB DDR5 @ 5600 With the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU

I ensured bios were setup, attempted to install and it didn’t even show an error when selecting to install or live test and install. The device just restarted and nothing.

I’m actually going to give it another try, I made a fresh USB for it, it’s worth a fair attempt. I know the GPU is gonna probably be unusable, but I was looking at Qubes for 80% of my tasks.

Nice, I’ll check it out! I only plan on still having it installed because some exams I take might not work in a VM. Literally the only reason I plan to dual boot.

I’ve probably had less then a dozen web ads in the last year, I’ve blocked them as much as possible.

My main issue is I paid for Windows and still get ads, its annoying. But I comprehend your perspective. It wouldn’t have bothered me as much if a “Do not remind me again” option was there.

What I’m probably going to do is reinstall windows 11, complete updates, run de-bloater. Then install Ubuntu along side windows (super easy) and disable Ubuntu Telemetry. Use Ubuntu as primary for just about anything, have a win VM if I can use it or worst case Windows still available if I absolutely need it.

I wanted to try Quebes but my device isn’t compatible. Having Win installed, I could use it strictly for gaming too if I wanted.

Nah, I understand. I just didn’t comprehend lol But yes, I agree!

Different rephrasing helped, yes, thank you.

I’ll give that a try, thank you.

And then they wonder why american men have a mental health crisis. Well, buddy, part of it is you.

What part of any of that makes it partly because of me? This seem more like an off-topic rant.

I am an American and the only two I’ve heard is:

“don’t masturbate because touching a penis is gay”

Every time has been religion driven homophobia related.

don’t get prostate exams (this one may be more self-explainitory, doesn’t make it right though).

Goes back to the last one as well.

Probably why religion has been on a decline.

I’ve decided to order a cheaper one and see how it goes. I happen to have plug close enough so that’s a plus. The cleanliness is really what is convincing me towards it. Thank you for your reply.

Thank you for your reply. After yours and others replies, I’ve went ahead and order one to give it a try. I just hadn’t really explored the idea before. Thanks for the information!

I think I would trust an unknown 3rd parties ISO more then the stock Windows at this point really…
