The one that drives me insane is using the touchscreen on my Surface:

• Go to a channel’s page
• Click on the video tab
• Scroll through and find the video you want to watch
• Click on the video and YouTube slides to the playlist tab instead of starting the video. Every fucking time.

I started using Crunchbang because it was so lightweight and ran great on Virtual Box on Windows 7. I stopped using it, when they stopped developing it. I wasn’t aware of ++. I will be installing it this evening.

Right-click, inspect, delete element

I’m only commenting this because you said you’re stuck on Win11 and not defending it, but…

Using winget and Chocolately will make your app installation much better.

Also, to reload your path variable in a PowerShell prompt you can run the following:

$env:Path = [System.Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("Path","Machine") + ";" + [System.Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("Path","User")

Again, your gripes are all legitimate, but these might help ease your pain.

I took a similar path but eventually ended up on openSUSE for my desktop. I’ve been pretty happy with it. I can’t think of a single issue that I wasn’t able to quickly resolve. I even got CUDA installed and working in under an hour.

You and me both

Clicking Next redirects you to the App/Play Store

It’s really sad because the artists have little to no control over this. It is the venues who are contracted through Ticketmaster.

I remember Pearl Jam suing them for this in the 90s. Unfortunately, Pearl Jam lost and here we are 30 years later still dealing with their monopolistic tactics.

Sadly, I tried desktop mode in Firefox and still got the pop-up

You’re talking about the same company that charges a “convenience” fee for ordering online. Then if you decide to go to buy them in person you charge a “facilities” fee.

Trying to view them through your browser will bring you to this pop-up. And it says you can’t use screen shots or print outs.

The only other option is to use a mobile wallet, but that prevents me from sending my friends their tickets, since I purchased them all together.

That doesn’t work anymore. If you follow those instructions you’ll receive the pop-up I posted.

I tested out Ubuntu, Fedora, and Mint before landing on openSUSE. It by far has been the most stable. Especially when dealing with my Nvidia GPU and getting CUDA working.

So, I’m old enough to have driven in that forgotten time before smartphones. A lot of directions were based on landmarks. Like…

Go down the street until you see the house with the big tree with a swing in it. Take the second left after that and follow until you get to the corner where the Stop and Go used to be (it’s a 7-11 now). If you hit the highway you went too far.

Basically if you couldn’t read a map well, you got lost a lot. That and you could pull into any gas station or even better a pizza place and ask them for directions.

It’s actually Mountain Home, Idaho. I have no idea who came up with that system. When I lived there 20 years ago they were talking about changing it. But it still remains to this day.

No confusion you say

I’ve played around with a few of them. I’ve found LM Studio the most robust and user friendly.

Problem solved

I don’t know what’s worse. That or when OP replies, “nevermind, I figured it out” and nothing else

Here lately it feels like Medium has started their road to enshitification. I’ve been noticing them locking more and more content lately.
