Then let it take hours. That’s how you learn. She’s not going to learn to remember to save regularly if you just sweep the mistake under the rug and do the heavy lifting for her the second time around.

Every single one of us has been bitten by auto save that didn’t work. I’ve personally lost hours worth of code to auto save glitches and poorly timed save runs. People don’t trust it because in the past it has had and/or caused problems with their workflow.

Ctrl+S is a manual confirmation that I saved it, and is a step taken before running any code, especially through a terminal in an IDE where if the auto save hasn’t kicked in will mean the changes aren’t reflected.

Bluetooth is pretty much useless for peripherals and I’d never trust it.

Cloud storage is slow, expensive and small. External drives are still significantly cheaper per GB than cloud storage.

100% I hate this dumbass trend of putting multiple optional standards into a single cord. They did it with HDMI and confused everyone, and USB-C is the same.

Bluetooth latency makes that extremely unattractive

Exclusively Voyager for Lemmy. I’m also not really interested in making custom tools.

There’s also the problem of that filtering out half of the active content on the platform.

Seems like this is a constant spam on Lemmy and it’s starting to drive me away from the platform. So much Linux spam.

Mines not even pointless. Lightroom and Photoshop are essentials for my side business, and there isn’t viable alternatives to either.

Linux works for a lot of things, but not everything.

I’m using a near 8 year old audio interface that still can’t support Linux. Plenty of hardware doesn’t support it. Community support never covers every use case.

You summed up my experience perfectly, down to the OP build on the easiest difficulty. I just didn’t have that much fun with it

I don’t know how Microsoft fumbled so badly with FM7. GT7 has been doing great, PC Simracing is the biggest it’s ever been (outside of covid bubble peak). The market is there to the point they could have been a major player, but the game is basically DOA and I can’t figure out where it went wrong.

It’s a great game for $30, but at full price+dlc it can get a bit pricey
