Being forced to be online to log in and forced use of OneDrive confuses new users just as much
You’re not forced to use either of those, IIRC. Just set it up without connecting to the internet or without signing in.

I installed Mint on a USB to give it a go.
My wifi driver doesn’t work on it. I have to plug my phone in to use it as a tethered hotspot to get it to connect. And I tried what a lot of the guides said online. Nothing.
I’d say I have the technical chops. I just don’t have the time and energy needed to try to fix something.
I’m also the kind of person that, if everything’s not working exactly the way I want it to, then I need to fix it right now. So I know I’d waste hours trying to fix something that (for me) just works on Windows.
To be fair, at least with Windows, if you do a reinstall I’ve always found that it never runs quite like it used to. I’ve sometimes had to deal with some weird quirks afterwards. A friend of mine who kept switching between Google Android and open-sourve Android on his phone said the same thing. Every time he reinstalled Google Android, it simply wouldn’t run as well as it did beforehand.
It’s like taking a plumbing pipe out and putting it back in. Or taking apart a car engine and putting it back together. It never quite fits together the way it used to anymore.

They update on two Tuesdays a month
Correction: It updates every second Tuesday of the month. (Not including any potential “Preview” updates which might get released. Those are all optional updates, though.)
It’s not in the EULAs pertaining to this game, and Sony changed their PC Games FAQ on May 3rd after the announcement that PSN would be required, meaning the FAQ people read when they bought the game is different from the one Sony is trying to enforce.

After:
I just use the AdGuard app. It runs all my Internet traffic through an on-device VPN server (The VPN is the phone itself.), and it uses that to filter out all the ads.
Like ability to install different desktop enviroment?
Technically, with root access, yeah. It’s just that Android’s UI isn’t a DE/WM in the desktop Linux sense
You can also just install different apps that change the home screen. Android calls them “launchers”. You can install one from the Google Play Store or elsewhere like any other app. Then just set it up. Once it’s setup, the phone simply loads that app’s launcher instead of the phone’s default launcher (which is usually also an app).
What’s the number of Threads users compared to Lemmy? If the number of Threads users greatly outweigh the number of Lemmy users, then we’d simply be drowned out by all the Threads posts. That’s part one of Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.
Extend adds functionality to Threads that Lemmy either can’t support or won’t support for a while due to development time. People migrate to Threads because Lemmy is “missing” functionality. Plus, though I’m not clear on the exact legal specifications, proprietary code can be added to open-source code, and the proprietary code would be copyrighted. In other words, Lemmy devs would have to figure out a way to interact with and mimic Threads’ proprietary code using open-source code.
Extinguish is when Threads’ support of Lemmy is eventually dropped. The users left on Lemmy have suddenly lost a huge amount of content, and they’re left with fewer users than before Threads enabled federation.
Ironically, Microsoft would later remove Cortana itself in an update.
Asking stuff like that is always a good idea, IMO. It could be the difference between a successful Linux install and a very expensive paperweight.
… Don’t ask me how to install it, though. I’ve only tried Ubuntu as a dual-boot, and that was several years ago.
Yeah, what happened with GitHub?
Believe it or not, I don’t think this is technically from an anime. One of the characters is (the short one in front), but the picture itself appears to be from DeviantArt. The other character, as far as I can tell, is an OC. (Someone correct me if I’m wrong.) Even the DeviantArt post just calls him “Anime Boy”.
The short character in front appears to be a character named Tomoko Kuroki, the main character in the show “No Matter How I Look At It, It’s You Guys Fault I’m Not Popular!” (It’s apparently usually referred to by a shortening of it’s Japanese title: “WataMote”.)
I’m a little surprised I learned all this just from a reverse image search.
The only reason Switch emulation is as far along as it is is because they made a mistake with the hardware in the Switch’s 2017 model. As long as they don’t make a mistake like that again, they’ll probably be fine.
A private tracker I use actually bases their ratios off the time you seed something for rather than the amount you seed. I use a seedbox, which means people are able to leech from me pretty much 100% of the time. Most of the stuff I’ve seeded so far is freeleech. Those three factors combined have given me about +10.0 on my ratio over the course of maybe a week. (I just recently joined it.)
Any Usenet providers and indexers you’d recommend? I tried it a few months ago but couldn’t quite wrap my head around how to use it. (I’m technically literate, but Usenet was completely foreign to me until a few months ago.)
This. I literally just joined. I have no idea what the server layout is or where all the important links are.
The last time I had to setup a Windows profile (late last year on my then-new laptop), that was the case. Has that changed?
