Same with 11, now that IoT LTSC just released not too long ago.

I think Vencord helps keep discord more tame and sandboxed.

I have done 0 configuration to the controller or steam inputs, I just set the toggle to X for windows/Linux, then Bluetooth pair it. Every button gets mapped and can work independently. Even the 2 grip buttons, and 2 special menu buttons. I did the XBOX buttons because I noticed every game made for controller had the ABXY layout, and not always PlayStation's square, circle, etc.

Ohhh OK, these are beef cows as well. I don't know at what point they're free range, they have 100s of acres, but they see humans all the time.

Lmao, interesting. I was just there this week and repaired something close to the fence. All of them, about ~50, came over to watch. I wonder if it's a breed thing? And you're sure they came at you to be mean, and not come see what you were doing?

Check out 8bitdo. In have their pro 2, and I bought their Xbox buttons for it and installed them. Goated controller with replacement parts. PlayStation layout, styled like SNES, and XBOX ABXY buttons.

One of the things for X-Lite I would do post install, is install Edge WebView2 along with the other runtimes available on X-Lites website. Not sure if I ever needed it or not, but never had issues with no Edge.

There's a custom OS forum where I found it originally a year ago. Everything got scanned from virus total when uploaded and showed the report. And the guy had an excellent reputation there as well. I decided to go for it until 11 LTSC came out, and daily drove it for 2+ years issue free.

In the end, it's up to you if you want to trust it.

That'd be advertising, and by a mile.

Sending in Sennheisers for warranty is silly. Their headphones are basically bullet proof, at least their typical wired open cans.

Texan with a Ranch and cows here. They're VERY curious and goofy and stupid, and scared. Occasionally you'll have a lone bull in the herd try to intimidate, but they're scared too. The only thing to watch out for is look down where you walk so you don't step in poo!

Doesn't the N mean it's only media player, and codec free? If so, IoT LTSC is a much better bet for minimalism and privacy and bullshit free.

It's probably hard to keep up with lol. I'll try my best. It has Edge and Defender ONLY. No cortana, copilot, recall, candy crush bloat or anything similar, .net, vcredist, edgeview/runtime, TPM requirement, online account, secure boot, store, xbox, one drive, winget, nor widgets.

You finish the install and it is BARE. All I do post install is, in regex and gpedit, turn off telemetry.

For my use, Steam installs all the .net and vcredist as needed.

Store and Xbox and the like are available to install via power shell or downloads, but fair warning. Once you do store or M$ account sign in, copilot and recall might find a way to sneak in via updates. None of them work, and error out when you open them, but the fact they install and exist makes me uneasy.

Edit: If you don't even want Defender, nor Edge, look up Windows X-Lite. That man is a wizard at figuring out the bare minimum needed for an .iso.

Just a heads up, Windows 11 IoT LTSC is out, and it has none of M$'s bullshit you read about weekly. It can be tricky to find the .iso, so it would be a real shame if people wasted their time looking for it @ massgrave.dev

The new Godzilla Minus 1 movie actually goes over this, >!they even use it against Godzilla to try and defeat him.!<

They'd find some bullshit law to get that money back, or get one enacted in record time.

Whataburger's A1 sauce burger with bacon. They got bought out by another company and it vanished 😥

Layering with rpm-ostree isn't a big deal, it's designed to be used. Flatpak -> ujust -> rpm-ostree, for looking for programs. It also has a manager for .appimage, so those are easy to use as well.

For your Razer, there's a ujust for it. I personally prefer chromatic or whatever its called. But both use openrazer for backend, which is a layered package.

My favorite cool app is cavalier (flatpak), and before that just cava. A nice visualizer for my sound on my second monitor. I'm a bit of an audiophile, and seeing the live bars bounce based on frequency is always so cool to me.

Electric cars are fun, and I don't personally mind they're basically silent. But nothing will replace the fun of a manual transmission ICE.

I don't think most people get a loud exhaust for attention either, but because they like it. But windows down blasting music is pointless and toxic, IMO.

Also saying if you want speed to go electric is too generic, IMO. What kind of speed and when you're going to use it is important. For example, if you want speed from a standstill, then sure electric. Want speed once you're already moving, like a race track, then ICE is fine since you'll be high RPMs.

That's a very real issue that car enthusiasts have a hard time with. There's just something about a great sounding engine that is the cherry on top of a car you like. My weak spot is a 4 rotor screaming like a banshee from Mazda's Le Mans car.
