I have been computer free for probably 15ish years until I recently bought and set up a RPi4 with Linux. It’s been fun but I’m not really a super user so I’m looking to back to Windows as my main OS.

  1. is antivirus a necessity? I will be gaming and streaming on my new setup.

If yes then

  1. what are some ideal options? Paid or free.

Thanks for your responses in advance.

Don’t buy HP printers. Buy Brothers instead. They’re a better product anyways.

Looking to get some anecdotal experiences from someone living in a cold climate using a heat pump as their main source of heat.

It’s a cute meme but please don’t do this irl. This is how peoples’ days (and sometimes lives) are ruined.

It doesn’t change the fact that they over promised and under delivered and still raked in pre orders.

Until consumers figure out how to be patient, this is a trend in gaming that is going to continue. To NOT criticize it at every opportunity is doing yourself and every other gaming enthusiast a huge disservice.

When people ask me why I don’t have children, this is why. I’ve yet to be beaten in combat.

Do we really need to explain why an oil company trying to cozy up to the younger generation is a bad thing? Really…?

Crossposted.

I have zero tech skills but was hoping someone with the proper skill set and motivation would be interested in toying around with the grocery chains in Canada similar to what the fella from Mastadon did in the linked thread.

I am willing to assist in whatever capacity I can - limited as it may be.

It would be nice to be able to bring to light the price gouging that is taking place in Canada with regards to grocery stores.
