Yep my work laptop is win11, this happens every time. I just wait till the end of the day, click update and shut down, let the dog out and then give her breakfast (I work nights) then go back and shut down from lock screen.
Meanwhile on my Linux laptop, “downloading critical system files” SUDO shut down, “whatever you say boss” and 10 seconds later it’s off.
I admit I don’t watch every video, I’m subscribed but I just kind of let videos come to my home feed and watch that way. I mainly use YT as background noise while doing something else.
His reasoning makes sense, so I guess I’ll just continue to watch on YT since I have no desire to join FP. Thanks for the info!
Yeah I’m not big on LTT either, I’d like to see him on Nebula. The price is reasonable and they have some really good high quality content.
Believe it or not, straight to jail.
If they are really nostalgic for that, tell them to use react os.
As one headline put it “PornHub pulls out of France”.
I dealt with this for years, then I developed GERD and had to get a wedge pillow to angle myself up. That wedge pillow with a medium firmness regular pillow is perfect.
Not to mention if you primarily watch videos on your TV you’re out of luck.
I always wonder if he has any siblings, like and what did you do? “I sold more units this quarter and got a congratulatory certificate with a $25 Applebee’s gift card”.
I’m sure the editor who wrote that headline got a good giggle out of that.
SSDs are getting reasonable, you might want to look into it again if that’s your use case.
Oh yeah, I run spinning rust in my nas. All data storage for me is on HDDs, only OS date is on the SSD. That’s for the nas and my computer.
And you’d have the benefit of your next trip to the toilet being self-wiping!
This is how I know I’m getting old, my first thought was “spinning rust for always on long term storage” and then I remembered it’s 2025 and SSD’s are about equal now.
Get off my lawn, your interrupting Matlock!
Yeah in my teens and early 20’s I basically lived on Pepsi, mountain dew, and Gatorade. How I avoided kidney stones I’ll never know.
In my 20’s I became a self-employed courier with a contract for one long route and then anything I could pick up on the side. After a while I started talking a small Dr pepper and a large bottle of water with me every night. I basically forced myself to drink more water since I was trapped in my car for hours on a tight schedule and the Dr pepper didn’t last long.
Now at 41 I mainly drink water and hot tea. I still enjoy a mini can of Dr pepper once in a while but once or twice a week is enough for me.
