Did you at least get them to make a bootable Mint thumbdrive?

It’s shocking to me just how stupid the average person is today. Computing catering to the lowest common denominator has made it too easy for idiots. Make computing difficult again; make people actually have to learn something. A tall order for the idiocracy of 2025.

I did not get hacked. My account credentials were intact. 2FA was instated. No emails were sent.

Microsoft locked me out of my Microsoft account which has a large collection of games, an active game pass subscription, and ms365. They unlocked it after I appealed and claimed it was for “potential spam” from my outlook account which I hardly ever use.

Ridiculous. Just locked me out of all my purchases on a whim from some horrible AI moderating glitch. Done with them.

Once Revolt gets screen sharing.

Fortunately I have no need for wine.

Right. I said that I use OBS for my Elgato HD60 X. Works great!

Audio support for streaming was still unavailable when I tried this. Maybe because Mint Cinnamon is still X11?

Windows is a disaster. Linux Mint was easier to install than Windows 11 and it’s not even close.

Laptops often have issues with Linux because they have a lot of proprietary garbage- web cams being the most infamous.

Cue people spouting: “But muh marketplace!” “But muh friend from highschool I haven’t spoken to in a decade!” “But muh extended family I barely even know exist!”

Any excuse to keep hitting that crack pipe.
