There is what used to be the “Mail App” that was introduced with Win10. That was renamed to Outlook. A new Outlook was then installed automatically that was called Outlook (new). At some point, Outlook was renamed "Outlook (classic) and Outlook (new) was renamed “Outlook”. On top of that there is the Outlook that is part of the MS Office suite, if you have that installed.

I’m not entirely sure how accurate my memory of this desaster is, though. I don’t use Windows on my personal machines, I noticed this on a friend’s computer I was fixing.

I believe there are three products called Outlook, actually

I’ll happily pay 100€ if I have to. It’ll only be one for that price, though

Bikes are incredibly cheaper than cars, cars need new tires more often, car tires are way more expensive, you can make tires without fossil oil. I’m not sure I get your point. What was your point?

until then Merz can suck dick

He’s to busy licking all these eggs.

The German ID card has that functionality. Date of birth is saved on the chip card and you can identify yourself via NFC reader and the open source ID app. You can see what information is transmitted before sending it. In the case of age verification, it would only be “underage yes/no”. It’s not perfect but pretty good from a privacy standpoint.

Yes but there are public DNS servers that block blacklisted domains. I can set that as DNS in my router settings and it works the same as using pihole as a blacklisting DNS server, right?

Stupid question, but does pihole offer any substantial benefit over using a remote ad-blocking DNS like AdGuard or whatever?

Oh, yeah I wasn’t joking. I had been depressed and anxious since puberty and didn’t really understand that (because “that’s just how life is, right?”) until I developed actual panic attacks and started therapy. Turns out I’m also autistic and have severe ADHD and that I’m not the lazy loser I thought I was. Therapy also enabled me to access and process my feelings a lot better, which helps me be a good partner. I simply wasn’t ready for a relationship before all that.

I was almost 30 when I first kissed someone, had sex, fell in love. She’s the first and will hopefully be the last and I wouldn’t change a thing. (Except I should have gone to therapy 10 years earlier)

Ich dachte bis eben, Handyverbot im Hausrecht wäre Standard in deutschen Saunas. Was zum Geier

In welcher Sauna ist denn bitte irgendein Gerät mit Kamera erlaubt? Wenn bei uns in der Sauna jemand im textilfreien Bereich mit Handy entdeckt wird, fliegt er hochkant mit Hausverbot raus

Educated, rich men still send unwanted dick pics

Don’t you give Rowling clout by making Harry Potter memes as well? Even more so than pirating media in silence.

If I can chose between certain defeat and possible defeat in 4 years, I chose the latter.

It’s to collect rain water

Yeah NTFS is not a great experience indeed. You can only do so much without it being open source. But I also experienced issues with mounting ext4 or btrfs. It’s not a dealbreaker for me, but it tends to irritate new users while it seems easy to fix.

Absolutely! I’ve been on Linux since 2017 and KDE Plasma since 2019-ish. It outperforms Windows even in terms of usability/ease of use in most cases. My 70+ years old, tech-illiterate parents happily use it.

But things like mounting and partitioning make me scratch my head. KDEs partitioner requires sudo rights to even start and then formats partitions in a way that you need sudo rights to access it. It’s annoying and would be very easy to fix.

Kane was really rocking that Evil Abed™ look before Abed even existed

It’s absolutely bananas that internal drives are not mounted automatically by standard. It’s even more bananas that it’s not easily customizable via GUI. Gnomes partitioning app can somewhat do it I believe, in KDE’s partitioning app, it was completely broken last time I tried. Either way I lost two people back to Windows because of this
