It seems like most every other browser is all in on AI. We have chosen a different path at @Vivaldi

If you would prefer AI not to be integrated into your browser, but still like a feature rich browser, I welcome you to try Vivaldi.

What is wrong with Windows?!

I keep a small Win partition on my 2022 gamer laptop in case I need to take a cert exam or use a gov website, and I booted it for updating for the first time in 6 months. It took over 6 hours and 6 reboots to update! At one point, it was going bu-ding every minute from random notifications so I had to mute it.

Meanwhile, my 2012 Thinkpad T420 needed a full Fedora version upgrade, and that finished in 15 minutes.

No wonder MS is losing users

At @Vivaldi we tend to take a stand when it comes to technologies that are in use in our industry.

We have been clear from the start that we believe crypto currencies have no place in this world. Nothing that has happened during these last few years has changed our minds. Rather the opposite. What is your take?

Ich hab mich nicht von #Windows entfernt, aber diese Beziehung endet, weil der Partner angefangen hat Drogen zu nehmen, meine Wohnung zu verwanzen und mir alle fuenf Minuten Werbung fuer Staubsauger ins Ohr zu bruellen!

Ich haue noch einmal einen finalen #Microsoft Rant raus. Nach dem Urlaub wird auch mein Gaming PC mit #Linux laufen und ich freue mich irre drauf!

Gerne boosten, teilen & auf der Podcastplattform eurer Wahl liken.

I just realized that one of the desktops in the lab running #Windows 10 is no longer supported. Does this mean it can now finally run quietly 24x7 without any unexpected reboots ruining my unsaved work due to updates? I am relieved!

I put together a little link collection - collected quite some bookmarks over the years 😀

#Linux #BSD and #Windows related links as well as some other things sprinkled in.

Someone might find it useful. 😎

Passend zum Fruehstueck habe ich meinen kleinen #Windows Rant auch in Worte gegossen und mit aktuellen Entwicklungen (Stichwort Dark Mode Desaster) garniert.

Hier 👉 https://www.metacheles.de/microsoft-hat-windows-zerstoert/ findet ihr die aktuelle #MeTacheles Ausgabe, die uebrigens auch immer via @info ausgespielt wird!

Wuensche euch einen gesunden Start in den Tag und wuerde mich freuen, wenn ihr diesen Toot oder den Artikel boosten koenntet.

Danke fuer all euren Support 🙏

It looks like #Microsoft has been so busy with loading into #Windows 11 as much spyware, bloatware and AI crap that users never asked for, that they forgot the basics and broke all the OS basic features (like the Start Menu and the file explorer) around the new crapware.

And they’re asking users to run a bunch of PowerShell scripts as a workaround
