I still have to use Word for things because LibreOffice hates tables. Every doc I have to edit explodes violently when ooened in LibreOffice, and fixing the formatting to work in LibO would take far too long for the time available to do it.

Archived something someone doesn't want to be seen by the world... like any and all since-removed misinformation for one...

Best thing to ever happen on reddit is the guy that posted on askreddit how to set the site language back to English because he accidentally set it to Spanish... and everyone posted their replies only in Spanish.

That was peak reddit.

Wow, Linksys in 2024 still thinks like it's 1998.

My friend, have you ever configured an LED signboard before? If not, what you will learn will shock you...

...a lot of these boards are controlled by proprietary chinese software that only functions on Windows XP.... even today.

As to why they don't have a more modern OS connected to a signboard that obviously supports at least VGA and probably HDMI.... I don't know. Especially since the BSOD is a Windows 10 BSOD... XP did not have QR code sad face BSODs at the time.

Doctor-patient confidentiality is a serious thing. It doesn't matter what you think, you never leak info about people's medical.

Can't do much if the majority rule is blocking all of that.

While everyone here is screeching about jerbs, I would like to point out that using AI voices to voice an AI is an artistic genius in itself.

What's actually happening here is Windows is setting its bootloader first in your EFI when it gets updated. Linux isn't gone, you just have to press the "boot another drive" button and boot to it, or go into your EFI setup and switch the bootloader back to the Linux one.

Linuxes do the same thing when updating their bootloader.

Note for the Ackshually crowd: If you're still booting MBR (which comes with the partition eating risk on dual boots) you have a system that is older than Windows 8 - 11+ years old, so eating the MBR is something you'll have to deal with unconventionally, as all modern systems, OS, and hardware expect you to be using EFI.
