  • Was curious about the increased customisation so I went dual boot around the time of windows 7.

    Went full time Linux when windows 8 came out. Windows has only continued its enshitification since then, so it really paid off.

    Every machine I’m currently running would run like dog shit with windows, but runs like brand new with Linux Mint.







  • Great, now hackers and spies can detect my typing instead of using RATs or Trojans or packet sniffers, or just beating me with a $5 wrench (XKCD)

    Also:

    The trick, which takes advantage of the subtle acoustics created by tapping different keys on a computer, works even without a view of the computer’s keyboard, so long as the hacker has a line-of-sight view of any relatively reflective portion of the target laptop.

    So… Closing the curtains is all it takes to defeat this amazing technological method. GG.
