Those are update services. Upgrading your os is a basic security measure nowadays. You recommend to sacrifice some security because of a minor inconvenience. It’s alright if you can live with that tradeoff, but please don’t recommend it on the internet. Windows assumes a user is not knowledgeable enough about this topic, so it’s enabled for them.

Other hint, because it seems you are also not very knowledgeable about this topic, usually you can disable these things with group policies if you really want to, so you don’t have to run it after each boot. Or you can also set up a scheduled task or create a service with nssm.

Windows is messing with that. A feature of modern UEFI boot, that OS-s can change boot order. This can be useful, after OS installation you don’t have to manually change back boot order from the usb to the internal drive. The problem is usually windows like to reset this to itself…

Arch wiki has an article about this, try to set this options in your BIOS: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Unified_Extensible_Firmware_Interface#Windows_changes_boot_order

I guess with the bios update some settings were reset to default, that’s why the behavior changed. Maybe reset your bios settings, and try to set up everything again from scratch, some old settings may be still active from the old firmware, etc.

I haven’t used any google services for ages (except yt and search occasionally), so I don’t follow it’s development

Excel is the one I don’t hate, all alternatives suck way more. Active Directory is also ok, but you have to click more than in a moba game, it can become annoying.

Asking good questions is not easy.

If you ask a question which was already answered thousand of times you should search for the answer, not ask it again. Obviously from your point of view it’s a new question, but if someone replies to a lot of threads it can become annoying to see the same thing again and again.

Other common wrong question is when you don’t give enough details.

If you experience that your questions are downvoted frequently, please read this old guide “How To Ask Questions The Smart Way”. If you ask good questions, there is a bigger chance someone will help you

I was in highschool in the 2000s in Europe, and msn was our default way of communication with classmates.

Thank you for the clarification, I understand what is your issue now

It would be hard to get the context, and you could totally misunderstood the thread, e.g. from your hidden comment everyone get that replies are sarcastic, but you don’t.

Maybe an “temporarily unhide blocked user’s comment and replies” button to show the whole thread.

There are instances where downvotes are disabled, if you don’t like them you can just use an instance like that.

Downvotes are public and not anonymous, but they are hidden in Lemmy ui. Afaik you can see who downvotes your posts from Piefed or Mbin. See this thread: https://lemmy.world/post/18805474 or this: https://piefed.social/post/205362

Keyboard navigation. I know about https://github.com/vmavromatis/Lemmy-keyboard-navigation but it’s annoying that I have to use an addin/userscript for such a basic feature.

Option for default comment sorting. you can change the default sort only for posts, but not for comments, comments always sorted by Hot, and you have to manually change it each time you open comments.

In Voyager you can set this up, but it would be useful in the webui as well.

Workaround: use multiline code blocks with defined language, e.g:

systemctl --user cat emacs
pactl load-module module-switch-on-connect

Drawback: you cant use it in a list or inline

Is this that though? Isn’t MKBHD just a youtube personality? I mean, you can live well from youtube if you do good quality stuff, but is he considered a “rich person”. If it would be zuck or elon or warren buffet, I would see your point, but I don’t see a reviewer as someone from a “higher class”, he is basically just a specialized journalist, who is looking for more ways to convert some of his fame to money, because youtube still doesn’t pay enough to him.

Do you also hate Linus because he constantly advertises his underwear, which is exactly the same as one you can get in any shop but for double price. It’s also a “scam” if you think about this way. I don’t know why there is this huge outcry for this as it happened a million times before, and I’m sure it will happen in the future.

You will loose your mind when you will learn about the girl who sold her used bathwater…

Why do you care? People do a lot of stupid and wrong things, you don’t have to care or share these things. See my example: I read about this backround image app or whatever is this, I thought “yeah, it’s stupid and I don’t care” and moved on with my life. Never thought about this again until you posted this here. There are a lot more important things to be angry about. Ignore the unnecessary. This guy makes nicely edited reviews, that’s all, forget the extra bullshit around that. Your life will be better.

If you don’t need fancy gui and authentication, registry is easy to set up and works really well: https://hub.docker.com/_/registry

I have several addresses at cock.li. Uptime is not the best, around 98%, but free. According to their policy they don’t collect any personal data, but they comply with legal requests. https://cock.li/help

You can select from a lot of domains, some of them ar normal like firemail.cc or airmail.cc, some of them are funny like aaathats3as.com, some of them are edgy like cocaine.ninja or national.shitposting.agency, some of them are racist like nuke.africa or hitler.rocks

Google maps uses gtfs, public transport companies publish that feeds. Osm does not store this data, only subsets were imported, mostly the physical stuff, stops, stations and sometimes lines.

For proper public transport routing you need a service where this feeds were imported or linked correctly, and they can combine it with osm data for alternatives.

I used this osm based app a long time ago, I don’t know if it’s still working: https://transportr.app/

Sir, this is Lemmy, the default os is Linux here.

I checked the post history of @whyNotSquirrel@sh.itjust.works and I saw they commented once in linuxmemes, so I assumed it’s about Linux. Also on Windows it’s much more easier to change this, there is another dropdown literally next to the language selector.

OSM is database, not a website and it does not store pictures, only links to them. ¹

The most well supported way would be to upload the images to wikimedia commons, create a category for each spot there, and than add the category name to the wikimedia_commons tag on the element in osm.

• Tag documentation: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:wikimedia_commons
• General info on Wikimedia Commons connection: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Commons

Renderer support:

• OsmAnd can display these images, in the section “Online photos” in the detailed view of an element
• Organic Maps adds a Wikimedia Commons button, which opens the category in the webbrowser
• On openstreetmap.org these links are clickable.
• Wiki lists some more renderers supporting this tag: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:wikimedia_commons#Support

Another common tag for this is the image tag, you can just link there a single image. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:image

Mapillary is a google streetview alternative owned by Meta/Facebook. It has it’s own tag and you can link there images uploaded to mapillary. Note: this platform is not fully GDPR compliant, and owned by a terrible company, so I personally don’t recommend contributing there, just it’s a common option. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:mapillary

¹: Except those strange guys who store base64 encoded images in the image tag, taginfo link, but it should be only really low resolution as there is an 255 character limit for values. I haven’t found a renderer which could display this.

What is that?
