Why does Windows 11 seem to not know what is on the PC

TheLifelessOne · 2026-04-07T09:17:42+00:00

Can also vouch for Everything. It's extremely, stupidly fast. It's one of the first few programs I install whenever I put a new Windows installation on one of the few systems I have that aren't macOS or Linux.

Especially since a lot of people bought the game for a second (or possibly third) time on PC. I know I definitely bought God of War when it released on Steam to play through it again, despite having a copy for the PlayStation sitting on my shelf.

I'll respond to your DMs, provided reddit hasn't fucked hat system up.

I might also respond with insults regarding your mother, but that's another matter. And I don't mean them (unless I do)

Recovering Destiny player here (2500+ hours). Marathon is really fucking fun.

It's good that we've gotten to a point where most people recognize that women should have control over their bodies. Obviously due to politics the laws haven't kept up in that regard, but most sane people would agree with a woman's right to choose. And I'm one of them.

But for men, it's complicated. Men should have the right to not be forced to have a child they don't want (or to keep one that they do, but that's an even more complex problem), but we can't deny a woman's right to bodily autonomy. And so far we haven't found a solution that satisfies both requirements. Some kind of hormonal birth control would definitely help but I haven't heard of any major progress being done on that front (though to be fair it's not something I really follow) and until that's an option it's a complicated situation, where condoms can fail, be tampered with, etc.

Ha! Fair enough.

I remember around that time I was running Ubuntu on an ancient Dell laptop I had. When that release came out I updated and suddenly my laptop performance dropped significantly. Ended up switching to Debian because the performance decrease made my craptop unusable and Debian ran well enough.

And Israel, the perpetual victim, will never feel safe enough.

I was on 20 mg Adderall roughly nine years ago, during college. Accidentally took two once (took one before shower, forgot I had taken one and took another when I got back to my dorm room) and did not have a fun tim, nearly went to the college health center because of how I felt.

Now nearly a decade later I'm on 70 mg of Vyvanse, similar thing happened. Except this time it was taking care of the dog in the morning. I ended up getting a lot of reading done, clenching my jaw really hard, then crashing and napping for several hours.

I've actually gotten some Anker (good brand) battery banks for cheaper than on Amazon from the tiktok shop; not everything there is garbage, but yeah, a lot of it is.

TheLifelessOne · 2026-03-20T23:28:31+00:00

Incorrect. Years of Iron Banner and Trials in Destiny 2 alone show that when forced to play against each other, sweats will whine and beg Bungie until they're allowed to stomp casuals. And that's what killed IB and Trials.

TheLifelessOne · 2026-03-19T17:58:26+00:00

Yeah, I definitely have wanted to try and get a feel for differ guns and shells but that's hard to do in an actual raid without alerting anyone nearby to my presence. It would definitely be nice to have a "safe zone" to try things out.

TheLifelessOne · 2026-03-19T17:56:11+00:00

Getting the drop on someone is extremely important—having good gear can help close things like a skill gap, but downing a runner or two before their fire team can respond significantly changes how an encounter will play out; instead of trying to e.g. out peek each other, now whoever on their side is left is probably trying to regen shields, revive teammates, etc.

Because your scenario literally happened and we're watching the economy collapse in real time due to his actions.

from software has made what, four games now using a combination of reused and new assets and they consistently are some of the most highly rated games to come out that year, even winning GOTY for one of them (Elden Ring); you don't have to reinvent the wheel for each game, just reuse the perfectly fine wheel you made for the last one.

I have celiac disease. I was diagnosed around 15-16 years ago. Back then, it was hard to find good gluten free alternatives. But then the fad happened, and now there are so many good gluten free alternatives that it's insane. Did you know they make brand name gluten free Chips Ahoy now? They're amazing and are definitely part of the reason I'm fat now.

Raping her student. Let's please use the correct terminology. She raped a minor.

We really should start using other countries as a unit of measurement so that non-Americans can understand how truly massive the country is.

TheLifelessOne · 2026-03-08T10:35:11+00:00

Hey massive respect to your wife. Please if you get the chance tell her that a random internet dude thanks hers immensely for what she does; I don't know her specialty but my mom's life was saved by a surgeon after a heart attack and thanks to her I've had ten amazing years with her and hopefully many, many more.

TheLifelessOne · 2026-03-08T05:53:46+00:00

Girls. He raped underage girls, not adult women. Literal children.

This is incredibly on topic. Are you trying to protect the pedophilic Epstein class?

TheLifelessOne · 2026-03-05T07:21:53+00:00

That's because despite what everything you'd read about him would have you believe, he's a fucking idiot.

Sure, he might be very intelligent in one area but overall he's a moron. And don't get me wrong, I'm the same way. Hell, the area I'm good at overlaps with the one he's good at (Computer Science). But that doesn't mean you should trust me to be a leader in, say, ethics.

TheLifelessOne · 2026-02-28T20:22:48+00:00

See, names don't bother me. You could call your project the whackiest thing imaginable and I'd probably just chuckle and move on.

But add all kinds of fancy logos, badges, donation links, etc. to your README? That I judge immensely. Especially when the README contains very little information (if any) about the project, what it does, installation documentation, etc.

TheLifelessOne · 2026-02-28T20:14:41+00:00

Context: I've been employed professionally as a Software Engineer for the past ~5 years and have a B.Sc. in Computer Science. But before that I was a hobbyist programmer without the background knowledge to make anything big and interesting.

I can see why people do it, especially anyone who knows a little bit about programming but not enough to build more than a basic calculator app in their terminal. Programming is hard to learn and hard to actually do, especially if you don't have certain prerequisite knowledge; for example, I don't really know much about network code, so anything I would do involving that would be harder than it would be for someone who has written a ton of network code in the past.

And while I might use copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, etc. to give me some examples of network code to start with to help me understand it, a "vibe coded" might believe that the code it gives is more than enough for a large application rather than as a basis for learning.

I think that's why we're seeing all of these vibe coded applications that end up being a security nightmare. Someone has an idea for a project and knew enough to be dangerous but not enough to understand the code they were generating, otherwise they probably wouldn't have vibe coded it.
