This could be a House episode. Girl comes in with whipped back. House suspects abuse, which turns out to be correct, but the wound is because of Shiitake.

It was very easy to get free WiFi in the US compared to most EU countries I’ve been in. But here in the EU at least I have cheap data so it’s not all bad.

I couldn’t activate my W11 with a genuine W11 key taken from a previous W11 install.

At least 20 minutes is not enough to get to a place you want to visit though, while trains in many places ride straight into the city.

Incredibly so.

There is also the issue that if you want to work together with other companies who use 365, they often want you to send them files in Office formats. Yes, you can also make Office 365 work on Linux, but at that point people already don’t want to try it out anymore.

Personally I just tried Linux Mint for a short period and there is a lot to love. But I’m doing a huge personal project in which I’m reorganizing tens of thousands of photos which I want to store in OneDrive and backup on a drive. Currently I’m just more familiar with Windows and I understand how OneDrive works (instead of something like rclone on Linux). After I’m done I’m going to reinstall Mint or something similar on my secondary SSD and try to set up OneDrive in a satisfying way.

Ironically I’m biting the hand that feeds me as I work as a lowcode developer using Microsoft Dynamics/Power Platform. But still, Microsoft can eat a bag of sweaty sausages for what they’ve done with privacy, bloat, annoying restrictions in Windows 10/11.

You all keep saying that, and I’m not saying I can’t ultimately make the move, but there’s always something that doesn’t quite work as easily.

Then there’s always a solution to that which isn’t quite what you want and involves a lot of terminal which isn’t really something casual users want.

For me this time it was OneDrive which I want to be able to use, trust, and have control over without terminal commands and a half baked GUI. I get it, fuck Microsoft, but it’s already paid for and we’re not moving because my wife, who is doing dome contracting work, doesn’t want to mess with what she is familiar with.

Jokes on you. I don’t have nipples.

I’ve got 1000/1000 fiber for €32, which I think is a pretty good deal in the Netherlands at the moment. I will go back to 100/100 for probably a similar amount after my contract is up as 1000/1000 is simply overkill for our use case. But who knows, maybe I’ll find another deal.
