Download video game for free
Default search engine DOESN’T change because I was using the Free and Open Source™ operating system, GNU/Linux
Or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux + Dogpile + AltaVista + AOL
What am I looking at…
Before you paid for “free” software with your data, you used to pay by agreeing to install a search bar in your browser. Usually you just uninstalled it directly afterwards. Not this guy though.
This kind of thing is what got me into actually reading install wizards instead of clicking next, next, agree, next, yes, install, finish. I learned I could just uncheck those agree/install boxes and still install the software I actually wanted without all the extra crap. That’s one trend from the 00s and early 10s I do not miss.
Wait until you hear about kernel level anticheat for competitive games
One time when I was a teenager, I somehow downloaded exactly the wrong porn and then my login screen background and windows xp startup splash screen all got replaced with a Debian logo.
Isn’t this an improvement?
Nothings a improvement over windows xp not even Linux
Back in the days, you’re probably right. Nowadays? I wouldn’t connect online with Windows XP…
To be honest. Windows XP is probably still good to use just with a decent router. most router firewalls are good enough on there own to keep out nasties. Other than that the best antivirus is common sense.
Good luck with software compatibility. The latest web-browser you can run on Windows XP is probably 10 years out of date by now and riddled with exploits, same with network share protocols, printer drives, etc. Your router will not protect you of attacs using port 443 or 80. Same for antivirus software, where are you going to find an updated one working on XP?
Let’s remaster Windows XP. Call it Windows XP. Update security, compatibility.
Oh, wait, that’s basically Linux
I would love someone to develop Linux distribution that looks and works like XP. oh the nostalgia. Best of both worlds world’s best UI and based off linux preferably something nice and easy like Debian or Ubuntu. To help windows users get familiar with Linux
ah this brings back memories
The first time I fucked the family PC
but not the last
I looove CMD windows popping up at boot 😍😍
AMD’s auto updater does this. But it pops up and closes instantly so I have no idea if it’s actually working or just crashing.
One time pirated some video editing software and after rebooting my Steam had janky early 2000s sidebar ads.
