I’m only commenting this because you said you’re stuck on Win11 and not defending it, but…
Using winget and Chocolately will make your app installation much better.
Also, to reload your path variable in a PowerShell prompt you can run the following:
$env:Path = [System.Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("Path","Machine") + ";" + [System.Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("Path","User")
Again, your gripes are all legitimate, but these might help ease your pain.
I took a similar path but eventually ended up on openSUSE for my desktop. I’ve been pretty happy with it. I can’t think of a single issue that I wasn’t able to quickly resolve. I even got CUDA installed and working in under an hour.
I tested out Ubuntu, Fedora, and Mint before landing on openSUSE. It by far has been the most stable. Especially when dealing with my Nvidia GPU and getting CUDA working.
As someone who has to use Azure DevOps for work, I can safely say GitHub is safe. Microsoft put so much effort into while Azure DevOps seems like an after thought to them now.
More like 5-6. My son is autistic and finding services for a 12 year old is difficult. He is level 2 and it is near impossible for us to find services for him. Either places will only work with level 1 or you have places that treat everyone as level 3.
I would consider what my company is doing right now as board line abuse. They’ve done two rounds of layoffs this year, but the amount of work as not been reduced in the slightest. So everyone is overworked and scared of saying anything in case there is another round of layoffs. Of course this is also having a ripple affect where long-term hardworking employees are jumping ship.
I currently have a backlog that is four years long. That was when I had a team working for me. Now I’m the only person on the team and not a week goes by when I don’t get ask what the status of XYZ is. Or have 2-3 more “high priority” things added to my backlog.
For those like me who have only heard it called SAG, SAG-AFTRA is Screen Actors Guild and American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. Since I guess the article assumes everyone knows that already.
I use Sideload Channel Launcher 3. It’s a nice clean interface.

I have a 2017 pro model and never had a problem. Only complaint is when they updated the interface a while ago with a shit ton of ads you could not turn off. Which really pissed me off because it is a $120 device. Not some $30 Roku that you expect to have ads on.
But it took me less than 10 minutes to install and setup a different launcher. Now I have a nice clean ad free interface.
But call me Aloysius Devadander Abercrombie
The biggest obstacle, besides politics and oil/gas money, is neither of these cities are non-car friendly. Both cities are so sprawling you end up spending significantly more time using public transportation than driving. That’s even if public transportation goes to the part of the city you need.
My Bluetooth headphones work just fine. Except every time the connect the automatically set the volume to 100%.
Seems like there was an article about it in every edition of 2600 all through the late 90s.
I started using Crunchbang because it was so lightweight and ran great on Virtual Box on Windows 7. I stopped using it, when they stopped developing it. I wasn’t aware of ++. I will be installing it this evening.
