How is attempting to install a different browser and then accepting but being annoyed that it won’t let you “attempting to mess up company policy” lol, being allowed to install different browsers on your work laptop isn’t exactly unheard of.
If they previously told him that everyone has to use edge, sure, but that doesn’t seem likely.
basically, all of this. My issue was that no matter what I tried, said game was clearly displayed at 60hz on my 240hz monitor (very fast movement so it’s extremely obvious, and it looked identical to if i set the monitor to 60hz in windows). Tried a few things but couldn’t get it to work.
Preface: am not trans, but have thought about and read many things from transppl about everything going on in their heads bc its still sth i struggle with
This will also vary based on the individual, and there’s probably at least one transperson out there that doesn’t care. But for those that do, I’d think it comes down to it being one more aspect where they’re put into a box they really don’t feel like they belong in. Something that on its own would likely not be a big deal, but if you’re already trying to 1) get away from everything your birth sex has confined you to and 2) try to feel as close to your actual gender as possible in every day life, it can make a difference.
Really I’m just confused why bathrooms are gender seperated in the first place though, we have stalls for a reason?
So I didn’t quite try it to switch, rather installed linux to dualboot specifically because one game had lag issues on windows, and ultimately there are just 2 things keeping me from making linux the main and windows the backup.
One is game compatibility, while linux has come a long way it’s simply more convenient to be on windows which can effectively run everything (even if there are a few more performance issues at times).
The other is that I couldn’t find a DE of which I liked the look that could handle high refresh rate monitors properly. LXDE works for my purpose and I think it looks ok, but by design it just doesn’t feel as nice to use as windows.
Hated gnomes UX, liked KDE but it couldn’t handle my monitor. Wouldn’t wanna bother with trying many more options unless I actually know it will work with my hardware.
It’s not actually “no tools”, it’s “no specialized or proprietary tools unless provided for free by the manufacturer”.
You have a few options, one is sharpkeys as people mentioned, alternatively there’s also the microsoft keyboard layout creator that lets you make a custom keyboard layout where the two are swapped.
If you only want to activate it temporarily, you could also use autohotkey to define a hotkey that makes you type a colon instead of a semicolon and vice versa until you switch it off.
The text specifically disallows this, at least.
Though some sort of ID-verification so you can only put in official Apple batteries for a stupid markup seems likely.
My issue with hot weather is that around 25°C i run out of layers to remove to stay comfortable, and I can’t even get to that point if I’m anywhere outside my own home because running around naked in public is sadly not socially acceptable. So when temps reach 35 outdoors I just feel like dying as even indoors tends to heat up to >30 if the temps stay for a few days.
