Windows 11: Missing Features from Windows 10
Take care before moving to Windows 11, as you may lose access to some familiar features from Windows 10. Hereās a detailed list of features from Windows 10 that users commonly feel are missing or changed for the worse in Windows 11: Taskbar Changes: Taskbar Customization: Drag-and-drop to the taskbar is missing. You cannot move the taskbar to the top, left, or right of the screen as it is fixedā¦

Finally fixed my dell laptop and like, figured out how to fix my HP despite being told it was fried through years ago, because HP/dell have shared multiple part manufacturers forever and their builds are pretty similar
And I just
I have to bitch about this
So for the past few months my Windows 11 download has basically been making it to them my laptop will go into sleep mode and refuse to wake up, but blare the fucking fans the whole time and overheat, which has cooked through my main fucking battery.
And all of the solutions online never touched on this, but it literally worked for two fucking computers because it's THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM
Which is this


This, or rather these, are cmos/bios batteries. They typically last a few years, sit on the motherboard, and power the cmos chip that stores date/time and bios settings. Their slow death makes your computer shittier and for some ungodly reason, it's a bitch to get an actual manufacturer's repair shop to replace them.
For some reason though, windows 11 speeds up the degradation of these and has even more nightmarish reactions to an even some what dying cmos battery than usual. So like, even if you replaced it recently, if you went through a major install on a windows 11 machine it will for some ungodly reason still majorly eat it. Post major updates, you're fine, it's just ass.
So, six dollars. Cmos replaced (it's literally a coin battery). 98% of problem fixed and PCs that were previously unable to boot at all brought back to life, go into terminal, powercfg/a and check whether sleep state 3 is enabled. If not, registry, run key to enable state 3.
Computer can now awaken. (And fully power on/run without issues if bricked sometimes.)
Did this, battery swap, and checked the barrel port despite having only just replaced it on the off chance there was any damage. Nope.
Anyway, it's so stupid and annoying I just want this to exist somewhere on the internet for someone else to see so they don't end up going through hell like me.

introducing - the teddie shimeji!!!!
for those unaware, shimeji are lil desktop pets who walk around your computer screen. for the most part they're just cute and silly guys,,, buuuut they can be a bit mischievous sometimes. >:3
and now you can have a little bearboy on your computer screen!! he can watch you play persona 4 if you want. he might steal the window sometimes if you let him, though.
there's a couple things we might update eventually - he's not BEARFECT in every way, and we wanna make him more unique someday since right now he just has basic shimeji functions - but the important thing is that!!! he's here and ready to become your friend!!!!!!!! X333
#teddie shimeji#š§ø#persona 4#p4#teddie persona 4#teddie p4#teddie hanamura#teddie kumada#shimeji#HE'S HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#happy teddie tmonday kjldfjskdfsj#also happy late teddie bearthday yayyyyy š„³#also there's a gap between teddie and the corner of the notepad window in that one gif#but i'm pretty sure that's just a windows 11 issue#so if you're using windows 10 or lower it shouldn't be an issue-

Woo got Linux working! On a related note I have gotten over any fear of breaking things through the command line and also can now roll back to an earlier system backup. Yes those are related. In my defense, breaking things in interesting ways is a great way to figure out what's actually going wrong.
#Had issues getting my trackpad to work and went through All The Drivers#thank you that one redditter who went through this same thing six months ago and figured out that installing a previous kernel fixed it#Official documents out random redditter in#RIP Windows 11 I shall not miss the 4 times you managed to force updates in the two non-consecutive hours I used you#Nor how each update progressively added more unwanted ad junk and invasive features#Save me Linux-Wan you're my only hope#The Cinnamon desktop seems adorable I'm looking forward to playing with its features tomorrow#Wow it's been awhile since a new OS has been exciting#Instead of Oh What Fresh Hell Is This

OH, in other news I finally got genshin running on linux with no graphical issues. It was annoying- I really hope mihoyo considers official linux support once windows 10 reaches end of life in october- but that means I'm no longer tied to windows 10 myself \o/ good riddance
#also distrohopped again. saw fucking *pewdiepie* make a video promoting linux and showing off his lovingly riced arch installation#and that got me curious about trying arch so i'm on endeavouros now. might look into hyprland and ricing in the future.#if you don't know what any of that means don't worry about it dsghjksgdf. just look up linux mint; linux does not have to be that deep#anyway i feel like windows 11's issues are genuinely tipping more people into trying alternatives and i'm all for it#pewds linux vid has 5m views over 10 days and he has serious reach with people who've never watched that sort of content#for chinese companies and consumers specifically i've also been wondering if relying on a usamerican OS is a good idea#even if windows wasn't a data harvesting machine what if the huawei google situation happens again but much worse#but i'm profoundly ignorant about anything to do with that so idk how plausible that is#.txt

windows/linux rant
unrelated to SMT or anything on my blog currently I guess...
I keep seeing the "prep for windows 11" thing show up on my computer, and it upsets me every time that you have to have a microsoft account to install it.
windows 10 reaches end of support next year~~
I hope by then the computer I"m using will actually let me run linux on it instead of an outdated windows os....
I want to run linux on this machine so bad but whenever I try to install it, it seems to install fine and dandy
and then it won't boot
I've snooped around in the BIOS, disabled the "smart startup" or "secure startup" or whatever else I thought was borking the boot for linux.
but it still won't boot~~~
and sadly i've got games on here that only work on windows anyway.
I'd much rather be able to stay relatively safe online and maintain an OS, than play the games I bought on steam....
something is preventing linux from booting on this machine, it upsets me when I think about it, and it upsets me more when I try to install linux and it goes fine, but then doesn't boot
cause I have to take the time to reinstall windows again.....
why computer? why won't you let linux boot? what do I need to do to you to have linux actually boot? I don't understand...
*confused screaming*
running an ASUS ROG Stryx gaming pc that I bought on impulse years ago. so you'd think linux mint would boot just fine, right??
how do I fix it? if I can fix it? especially if I don't destroy the data on the second hard drive of this thing. I've got stuff I don't want to lose on here, preferably....
#personal#thoughts#thinking#windows#windows 10#windows 10 end of support next year#wondows 11#i'd rather run linux than make a microsoft account#linux#linux mint#to be more precise#linux mint debian#it won't boot#boot issue#boot issues#it installs perfectly fine#and then won't boot#why won't you boot#is windows boot loader so far up this thing that it's actuvely denying linux to boot on it at all??#rant#rant post#vent#vent post#i'd rather a secure and upkept os than one that can run my games#you install perfectly fine#then won't boot#but you installed the boot partition in the right place right?#how do I fix this?#if I can fix it#without borking my machine and the data that's on the second hard drive

new computer has given me a bunch of graphical glitches since I got it on Tuesday but most notably it blue screened within an hour of booting up. so thats cool. what heavy program/app can I download to make it do more graphical glitches for documenting this mess
#i love a computer that isnt functional <3#taking it to best buy tomorrow because it was geek squad certified#but like sure This Shouldnt Have Passed Certification#anyways i downloaded and updated steam and it had a lot of fun glitching while that happened#I think it could run a game with no problem but like i dont want to test it#it's hard to know if its a windows 11 issue or its a graphics card issue

I try not to make being a hater my entire personality
Cuz being a hater isn't something to be proud of
Its disgusting and cringe
However
I hate windows 11
Its so bad it literally doesn't work on native systems
Like you buy a new laptop. It comes with windows 11. And then windows 11 doesn't work on the computer that was sold with windows 11.
Windows 11 sucks šššššššššš
Computer elitists want us to buy new computers so they can break them because the old computers were too sturdy
Hate you hate you hate you hate you
#and this is why purchasing any liveservice games is also bad#they can do this#they do do this#THE FUCKING BLUETOOTH AND INTERNET RECONNECTIVITY ISSUES ON WINDOWS 11

Please tell me that this is just a dumbass ad cause this is the second time I got this in a week.
#piko rambles#If anyone can help me with this in the replies that'd be cool of ya#I haven't even have this computer for like five years what do you mean 'Multiple system issues detected'????#And before you ask it's a Windows 11. ...Yeah I'm upset too.

Quick Newsflash
After much blood sweat and tears, the Jazz Hands half of our operations has got Sims 3 finally working again.
What was crucial was the Lazy Duchess Alder Lake patch (or whatever it's called).
Now for the plot twist.
Your humble narrator is using a desktop which is using the same processor, an Intel i9-14900KF, as the one that has just about reduced the other half to tears trying to get to work. Yet only they had to use the Lazy Duchess patch to get the game to work. Figure that one out.
Other half is now about to enter the following phrase of switching from a Windows 10 compliant laptop to a Windows 11 compliant laptop to run Sims 3 on ...
