I humbly offer an alternative headline: American IQ averages have slid below expectations
Ironically I think you meant to type "dumbass" while criticizing reading comprehension.
I get it, probably on mobile, but I couldn't NOT reply.
That article has not aged well.
All of my favorite browsers are forks of Firefox. Lately it's been Zen browser. Watching Firefox smoulder and collapse over the years has been truly painful and makes me fear a chromium future in hell.
Wisconsin, US here. My county went 70% for Trump this time. That's versus ~48% in 2016. The problem isn't democracy. The problem is the people. Pissed as hell for all the wrong reasons at all the wrong people. Unable to see reality, expecting that the person in charge could make it a utopia with the flick of a switch. The average American is delusional and irreparably stupid.
We constantly joke that it's Idiocracy, but the truth is...
"I drive the equivalent of a 2024 Yugo that is laughably poor quality sold by a huckster and I paid enough to buy 4 reasonable cars. It's the most gaudy design of any car ever produced since the dawn of time. Why would people laugh at me?"
Tell me you wasted 90 dollars without telling me you wasted 90 dollars
In that case, you've got some work to do to cripple telemetry on your PC. If you're on Windows 11 (new 24H2 build) you'd better also disable Recall, because it's on. https://pureinfotech.com/uninstall-recall-windows-11/
I hate Windows but I don't hate you- protect yourself
OOSU10 and OFGB should also be run on it.
I DO NOT want to be forced to use a terminal
I challenge you to fresh install any version of Windows and never use CMD Prompt, Powershell, or Regedit for any reason, ever.
On the up side, it's now very, VERY easy to tell who is an idiot in the main hub cities within 10 seconds of the auction house.
The "+" in 315**+** range is going to spawn so many lawsuits when users realize they're averaging far, FAR less than 315 per charge
"I use ChatGPT for" <- at this point I've already tuned out, the person speaking this is unworthy of attention
Ha, good response. Didn't know people got comic books on Kindle. Thought the point was having/collecting the physical ones.
What's the @#%^ing point, honestly
Really enjoying Zen browser this week, may be my new favorite. The tab handling is VERY weird at first though.
Genuine question: Why are Adobe clients not holding pitchforks and standing outside their offices every day for the past 2 years?
Odd Mozilla update error updating Firefox

Bumped into this- the vocals in the middle of the track absolutely floored me. Had to replay that bit a few times.
And then I looked up the band and found THIS https://youtu.be/Osqf4oIK0E8 I have questions
Anyone getting app crashes on launch recently?
Not long after installing/subscribing, was suggested to update. Since then I've had the app crash when opening.
In case anyone else happens to see the same issue- at least for the time being, uninstalling/reinstalling seems to have done the trick.
New Zimaboard, weird ass SMB issue
Got a new Zimaboard yesterday, running through using it to migrate the Plex workload off of my Synology NAS- but running in to a strange issue.
When mounting the NAS (which I'm still using for the storage of my media) everythiing works great, authenticates with a user I created just for it, finds the shares and displays them correctly, but entering any of the shares, they "appear" to be empty in CasaOS's file browser, which of course they're not.
Things I've tested- connected to my NAS with that same user credential in a VM, shares appear/work correctly. User has read/write permissions inside those folders.
Triple-checked file permissions on the NAS- all good from test VM.
Updated the Zimaboard's Debian OS from SSH, updated CasaOS afterward. Rebooted numerous times.
Anyone here familiar with CasaOS that ships on Zimaboard who might be able to enlighten me?
Any suggestions for extremely quiet fairly high core count pc for a homelab proxmox platform?
I do a lot of VMWare work but I'd like to tinker with proxmox at home- I just don't want to bring an awful old HPE server/etc home to try it out on-
Anyone have any reccomendations for a quiet, small homelab server with a solid (12-16 thread) core count?
