SloganLessons@kbin.socialto Philippines@lemmy.world•UFC Fighter Sean Strickland calls Philippines "The most fucked up place I've ever seen" on his one visit131·2 years agoMy issue with tweets like this is that while the vast majority thinks “that’s fucked up” then go about their lives, some will think “philipines you say?”
But I want to defend my -ism
SloganLessons@kbin.socialto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Is there any Firefox extension to automatically reject cookie popups?1·2 years agoStrongly recommend this one. It’s also available for chromium, Safari, and iOS
This is a trick question, the real answer is that there weren’t real communist countries
SloganLessons@kbin.socialto Linux@lemmy.ml•If you do these 5 things... You should NOT use Linux2·2 years ago1 - YMMV, as I mentioned
2- as a consequence, popular distros like Ubuntu and Fedora too. I expect other GUI’s and therefore distros to follow
3- Didn’t mean to imply they don’t, what I meant is that they have issues and will make users jump to other ships.
4, 5 and 6, Lutris and later Steam itself when I was running out of ideas, and yes it does run on Linux as long you can figure out the correct proton/wine version or buy the game from Steam. Point here was that gaming on Linux can be convenient or very annoying, depending on the games you want to play. YMMV

If you have an old nvidia card, you’re going to have issues with some games. BF4 for example, no matter what you do you will have lag and stutter
There’s wayland and lack of support for nvidia cards, and major distros and GUI’s dropping x11 in favour of wayland (regardless of whose fault it is or if it’s good or bad in grand scheme of things, whoever has an nvidia GPU is going to be forced to use other distros or windows)
And then the whole proton and wine stuff… I just installed CoD 2 and had to fetch some commands in order for it to run, else it crashed after playing the first cut scene. And then there are other games, like Divinity dragon commander, that I couldn’t figure how to get it to run. Tried several proton versions, none of them launched the game. My fault or ignorance? Perhaps, but on windows it would run first try.
It was the inverse for me. Windows 7 was always a nightmare to set up drivers, it was common to manually download the wifi drivers from the laptop’s brand website. I groaned whenever someone asked me to help set up their PC.
Windows 10 just works out of the box. The only downside for me is aesthetics, I always preferred Aero.

Android is more private than the iPhone! - YouTube (Sources in video description)(Transcript & Piped Link in Body)22·2 years agoJust correcting because your comment insinuated that google doesn’t have significant influence over android, which is far from the truth. They could as well own it.
I didn’t mean to dispute or address the rest of the comment.

One of those things that technically is true but in practice it isn’t. Just like chromium. Google is the main influencer of the project and it’s naive to think otherwise.
the symbol was making me think it was a cryptocurrency
I read the fate stay night visual novel like 15 years ago or so, and then the fate zero anime.
I have no clue what is going on with the series nowadays
It doesn’t point you to a different folder, it’s the same directory as the local Documents.
What I suggested is that you could create your own shortcuts that fit better your needs, I didn’t say it would create two documents shortcuts. I’m not sure what you are talking about.
And hey, I was trying to give you tips on how things actually work. If you want to be antagonistic, fine, I’ll shut up then 🤐
Have a good one
The local documents folder is always by default in the list of pinned folders, the ones I mentioned in the last reply. On the left side of the explorer.
In alternative, you can go to your users folder and create a shortcut in your desktop, or another location of your choice; create a shortcut for each subfolder of your choice in your desktop, or another location of your choice; or pin them in the list mentioned previously. Customize your machine to your personal preference.
I’m also speaking from personal experience, I work with Excel almost daily. Perhaps try to understand how you have your onedrive configured. Or if you don’t use it, just uninstall it and/or don’t use the autosave with cloud feature
It’s the last folder you saved to if you’re still using the office app after saving the last file, otherwise it will fall back to Documents.
If you have the option to sync documents folder with onedrive, its the same one.
If you don’t, I’m assuming the autosave with cloud enabled will save it in a different documents folder inside onedrive folder. This onedrive folder is by default in your user folder, but you should have quick access to it in the list of folder on the left of the explorer window, or by double clicking on the onedrive icon in the taskbar.
The only time it can be tricky to locate these files is when the app closes unexpectedly (for whatever reason), and you have to try to locate the .tmp file in the appdata.
Otherwise, the only chance your file is somewhere else is if you edit an existing file or if you save it in another location by mistake. This is easily solved by checking the latest saved files.
It’s not as tricky as you’re trying to make it out to be
Default save folder is Documents
SloganLessons@kbin.socialto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Do you trust Brave company and their products: Browser, Search, VPN, etc..?44·2 years agoI can see that you’re enthusiast and care about firefox, it’s thanks to people like you that these tools get better. But me, for lack of better words, can’t bring myself to care that much about any piece of software that ain’t related to my job, nevermind reporting issues. I’ll use whatever gives me less trouble in my personal time, if in the future things change for chromium, I’ll come back to firefox.
When I get home I’ll check my extensions and pass you the ones that don’t exist for firefox. Right now the only one I remember isn’t really an extension, it’s the text to speech function of Edge, that uses their AI voices.
Same, despite being in early access it’s already a lot of fun. Feels like the game that I wanted gamefreak to make but never did.
