      If I was getting programmer socks in exchange for my personal data I wouldn’t care so much about privacy.

        Every time I have to, I have an inexplicable rage that appears deep within me that goes away as soon as I don’t have to deal with it anymore.

          That rage was why I switched lol. All our work computers are on 11 and they frequently reset so almost every time I log in I get to freshly rage and spend a minute resetting the task bar and default adobe to the pdf reader.

          No Microsoft! I cant use edge as a pdf editor why on earth would you think that.

          AND WHY CANT I MOVE THE TASKBAR

          Depends on what you consider “working”, having my calculator and browser load for a minute or two before being able to do anyting and being unable to keep a specific software version as long as I need to doesn’t really work for me.

            Unironically can’t tell if this is a comment about using Linux or Windows. Either way most likely a skill issue

            Never had those problems! I’ve locked certain software versions before. But, every user has different needs. :)

              You can only lock them for a while last tine I checked, can’t you?

              I’ve needed an old GIMP version before for a project I was working on. I wasn’t using Ubuntu at the time, but would’ve been pretty screwed if it just updated itself after X months.

              Did they fix the Snap startup time, finally?

                There are different ways of holding back packages: with dpkg, apt, dselect, aptitude or Synaptic. Lots of options.

                https://askubuntu.com/questions/18654/how-to-prevent-updating-of-a-specific-package

                I don’t often use Snaps, so I dk. Regardless, KDE bugs are my biggest slow down lmao.

                  I’m specifically talking about Snaps, I have no issues with native packages and controlling them. The problem is, since apt has become a wrapper for snap in Ubuntu, I can’t even really tell what’s being installed anymore.
