I tend to avoid games that have that sort of anticheat already, but that looks very useful. Thanks for sharing!

Very relatable. Unfortunately we just don't live in a world where that's currently possible right now.

I'm planning to switch to some Linux or other at end of support for W10. I'm hoping Proton will take care of most of the games I want to play, and a single-purpose Windows VM will take care of the rest, if that's not too big of a security risk to the host OS.

Maybe it would help you to read in an "at least" to those stats

Fuck WordPress, but also it kinda sounds like WordPress is more in the right here.

There has been quite some discussion over whether FUTO can/should be called open source.

If I were a conspiracy theorist I'd say they're deliberately making it shittier to push voice-to-text for that sweet, sweet AI training data.

But I think it's probably just incompetence. Keyboards from a decade ago were a lot better at learning your typing/swiping patterns, I feel.

DOJ is really going at it lately.

I can't wait to hear about the outcome of this litigation in 20-25 years.

It's not the scraping itself, but the purpose of the scraping, that can be problematic. There are good reasons for public sites to allow scraping.

Haven't looked at their newer stuff so it's possible they are enshittifying too, but Das Keyboard has been a reliable low-frills brand for me for years (get one with blank keys if you really want to hone your touch typing skills!)

Don't have any suggestions on mice. I'm using a Razer

You don't deserve down votes for this. Yes you're being a touch rude, but they also clearly didn't read more than the title! The OP was not an unreasonable amount of text. Your irritation is justified

edit: I guess a lot of folks are getting hung up on the wording of the title. It was not that hard to understand that OP meant "without using it as a modifier" or "what a non-power-user would think its function is". Especially if you actually read the post.

Yeah I use it to open the start menu. I'm on windows 10 so I have my daily used programs pinned to the taskbar, my frequently used programs organized in sections of tiles on the start menu, and for everything else I either type to search for it in the start menu or just Win+R and use the run dialog if it's a system component.

Likely moving to Linux when Windows 10 ends support. I've got enough experience with 11 to know I couldn't stand using it regularly

Edit: and I didn't really talk about using it as a hotkey because of your OP, but for the record I use it like that all the time too. Win arrow for window sizing, win shift arrow for moving things between monitors, win R, E, L, D, win semicolon for the emoji keyboard, win number row to quickly launch taskbar pins, win tab for the lulz sometimes, win shift S for snipping tool when I don't need to use shareX instead for a local copy of the snip, etc.

 

Title. I found out recently that I need some major dental work in the near future and I don't have a damn clue how I am going to raise the extra money. I want to explore any realistic options for increasing my earnings before I have to resort to taking on debt, and I suspect that soliciting ideas in a semi-public place like this will turn up a lot of ideas I would never have considered myself.

I'm not very physically fit, but I am pretty good with computers generally, and I've picked up a little bit of programming in my free time this year, though I wouldn't sell myself as a freelancer in that department or anything. I am also pretty good at proofreading / nitpicking things, my regular job is in QA.

Thank you in advance for any input.
