Look at these gentlemen

I don't know who is interested in hearing this, but since Microsoft is dropping support from windows 10 this year in October it will mean many are forced to move on and many have their issues with windows 11 due to reportedly a lot of bloat and an AI assistant no one is really hyped for and i am one of the people that did not look forward into updating to windows 11, because i don't know. I'm not a fan of the taskbar in the middle and a lot of what i've heard is not amazing

So i tried something new and i switched to Linux (i dualboot it actually), and i've been running it for about a week now? It's so nice because this distribution was so easy to set up and it's very minimal i cannot lie. Aside from a few hiccups getting it running, this operating system has been a dream to use at the moment. I don't even know if this is the "right place" to rant about operating systems but i just had to share :)

If you haven't heard, Google built a bit of a backdoor to access Google without some of the enshittification that's happened over the past 10 years. Not ALL of it, obviously, but at least the AI is gone.

It's easy to set this as your default search engine in your browser's settings if that's what you want to do.

Dreamnoblade Christmas Event!

The prompts have been cooked and are ready to be served!

You can have fun cooking something up for this event!

Every day consists of 2 prompts; a main prompt and a subprompt. You’re free to choose however you want to use them; whether you use one, or both combined, it’s up to you. We’ve assigned the prompts to be somewhat related to each other so that it will be easier to combine.

Participating is not mandatory, it’s only a fun way for the DNB community to create content for and with each other, so do not beat yourself up if you don’t manage to finish the event or make something each day, or if you’re late. As long as you have fun!

The rules are simple:

You can post your work starting from December the first, up to Christmas day, the 25th

Use the tag #dnbxmas24 as well as @alterdnbweek in your post so we can reblog your work

You can create any form of content you want; art, writing, collage, you name it

If you have any questions, whether it's about the event or to clarify a prompt, feel free to reach out through asks or DMs

Reblog this post so that we can reach more people :)

On Firefox

They've just updated their Terms of Service as of March 1st, stripping away a few pro-privacy clauses and coyly dancing around the topic of integrating AI into the browser...

Look - the worst case is still Chrome and its more direct derivatives, like Edge. Firefox is extensively customizable, so whatever additional telemetry is collected is likely to be easily turned off in the Settings. So I wouldn't panic just yet.

If things do keep devolving, however, remember that LibreWolf exists - along with others like Brave - and don't forget to back up your passwords before making the switch, if you do decide to make it. LibreWolf, notably, isn't able to use Firefox Sync by default - for good reasons - and its onboard Password Manager is limited to local storage. LibreWolf's devs themselves recommend that you invest in a third-party password manager, for the sake of added safety.
