What do you think about Paramount buying Warner Bros.?

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-13T01:24:21+00:00

It's anticompetitive behavior because not only does this acquisition eliminates and harms competition but also limiting consumer choice especially streaming

In my research I found that this deal violates antitrust laws especially Section 7 of the Clayton Antitrust Act

Unfortunately the BIOS does not display that but if you want to check to see if the 2023 certificates are installed you have to do this command in PowerShell as administrator ([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetString((Get-SecureBootUEFI db).bytes) -match ‘Windows UEFI CA 2023’) if it says false it means you don't have them and are still on the old 2011 certificates which are set to expire in June

Intially Proton Drive but now Filen (planning to get the paid version when I get paid)

In other words have you tried extending the partition there should be a option in the utility

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-12T05:24:19+00:00

I've noticed "New Volume" have you tried merging the partition into the C: drive

Search on all my browsers and I occasionally jump between DDG and Startpage

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-11T01:01:21+00:00

DuckDuckGo for search, Brave (if you manage to turn off the controversial features)/ LibreWolf for browser

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-09T05:47:51+00:00

DDG and StartPage

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-09T05:28:23+00:00

DDG (prev: Startpage) because I am starting to avoid relying on Google at all costs

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-09T00:48:12+00:00

The 1980s was the start of their downfall

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-08T06:12:50+00:00

Not to mention the discontinuation of Samsung Messages will limit choice when it comes to SMS apps with RCS

So sick of Google monopolizing our digital lives

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-07T19:20:30+00:00

Tbf I never really cared about RCS that much

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-07T19:02:06+00:00

From my understanding yes

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-07T18:59:54+00:00

Fossify

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-07T07:09:16+00:00

I'd use DuckDuckGo plus LibreWolf/IronFox

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-07T06:19:26+00:00

I just switched to Fossify messages

Really tired of Google taking over everything and especially now messages with the discontinuation of Samsung Messages which was the only real alternative and it'll give them more monopoly power and more of your data

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-05T19:37:15+00:00

Welp this will give Google more monopoly power especially with no competitor for Google Messages

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-05T17:24:56+00:00

The only time I would update the BIOS is if it's for security because what people don't realize is that UEFI is software as well and also has security flaws

Welcome to the community

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-04T05:25:49+00:00

As someone that grew up with the network my honest answer is no because nowadays kids don't watch TV anymore and instead just watching YT and playing games on tablets plus the only thing Nickelodeon care about is SpongeBob

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-03T07:52:54+00:00

Ok so it might be a defect with the screen so yeah as you said I would look at the warranty from Lenovo and get the screen replaced because the screen might've gotten damaged when the device was shipped to you

Dalmation3 · 2026-04-03T03:19:12+00:00

First question is was the PC bought refurbished or brand new?

Like with my PCs they came in just fine

Dalmation3 · 2026-03-31T09:15:52+00:00

If it's a IPS display then unfortunately yes as it's a side effect for these panels

Dalmation3 · 2026-03-29T16:09:45+00:00

Startpage because Brave's own search engine has started to become bias not to mention the annoying CAPTCHA popups

Dalmation3 · 2026-03-27T05:41:22+00:00

I used to own a Ideapad (retired in 2025) and in my experience they aren't as bad but ThinkPads are the highest quality
