You know what time it is? Well Windows 11 thinks it's time to set my time zone to the other side of the world and to set itself as the default boot device WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. That also means it's time for me to uninstall windows.

This game looks amazing

I hope your cats catch the mice over tile or a hard surface, because mouse guts does not sound fun to clean out of carpet

In other words, just a regular cat doing regular cat things.

It's funny to me how people who are super duper against anonymous data reporting will immediately participate in the Steam hardware survey whenever they see the pop-up in the Steam app.

That's cool, but I literally didn't ask.

Just realized I accidentally captured the parking lot too, but just ignore that.

This place is beautiful

Oh, that makes sense. Thanks for the additional bit of information

I imagine it's not because I restarted the app and found this post again, and it still has the same thing. It shouldn't be a network-related issue bc I've never had anything like this happen on this network, and it shouldn't be an instance-specific instance unless it happened twice.

A screenshot of the original post, but the image isn't actually a smooth galaxy. The image is a black background with white text that reads "Cannot connect to Database: BESTDR8. Source Data: SDSS3t A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection"

Is this just me?

Yeah but "X" is really just evil Bluesky. Xbox isn't really evil.

And you've kept it for at least several days too

It's already amazing, but seeing the reference art just makes it so much better (imo)

I think the reason that some Switch titles won't be playable on the Switch 2 is that the Switch 2 doesn't have the IR sensor

Second*
Today is the second day of the semester

A screenshot of the Powerschool mobile app. It is showing the grades for "Physical Science." The only grade is "PS Chapter 9 Vocabulary," and it is marked missing. The total grade is 0%, and there is one absence.

I love being absent on the first day back to school this semester

A picture of a Gigabyte brand BIOS that is displaying boot settings. Windows boot manager is the first boot option, and UEFI OS as the second boot option. I did not set Windows to be the first option, and this should be illegal.

And then it also sets itself as the default boot option. Windows is fucking horrible.

A picture of a monitor that is displaying the default Windows 11 lock screen.

There's no way this is legal. I used meta+L to lock my computer inside of Arch Linux with KDE Plasma, and I come back to this. How do people genuinely think Windows is good when stuff like this happens?

White elephant gift my dad recieved

A picture of a Windows 11 taskbar containing terminal, file explorer, visual studio code, pycharm, and google chrome. There is a blank space between vs code and chrome where pycharm should be, but it is instead wedged between file explorer and vs code.

Windows 11 is a great operating system. There aren't even any bugs!

What weather app is this?

look at this cat

I'm using the standard American English keyboard layout, so I don't think I have any key like that. The specific keyboard is the Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition, if you want to look at it yourself.

So KDE Plasma decided that there should be a "normal" keyboard shortcut for touchpad toggling, but it uses a Japanese character??

The Android documentation feels more like a very small but passionate group of developers wrote it, rather than a multi billion dollar company.

Probably this one bc twitter sucks

I’m posting two identical photos, one on here and one on Twitter.

I’ve been on Twitter for 16 years, I’ve been on Bluesky for 25 days.

Which ones gonna get more likes and interactions?

Fun fact: vanilla extract tastes horrible.

Basilisk Ultimate is the best mouse imo
