    My 9th grade Spanish teacher taught us how to remember how to say who/what/when/where/why in Spanish by putting it to the tune of Jingle Bells. To this day that’s the only thing I remember from Spanish class, so yes I can confidently confirm that they work:

    🎵 Por qué, why,
    Quando, when,
    Qué, what; donde, where.
    Cuantos, how much; cómo, how,
    Quien está, who is there?
    Cuál! 🎵

  • It’s also one of the reasons why they allow 3rd parties to run their own activation servers. All you gotta do is type a couple of lines in command prompt to change your activation servers from Microsoft’s to such a 3rd party, type in the volume license key they provide for free, and now you have a 100% legit copy of Windows, no cracks or workarounds needed.

    Microsoft makes it so easy to activate Windows for free that there’s no way it was unintentional.







  • SponsorBlock is useful for more than just skipping sponsored segments, you know. The name is misleading; It’s way more powerful than that. You can also add “Skip intro” and “skip credits” buttons to videos, just like it’s Netflix. Or skip filler and go straight to the meat of the video, like I just did.

    Even if you don’t mind sponsored segments, you should still give it a try. Its got a lot of useful features. Just disable the sponsor skipping feature and enable the other stuff if you want.





  • That’s why I’m here! :D

    The developer of my favorite reddit app (dBrady, Relay for Reddit) decided to play along with Spez’s game and start charging for usage.

    So I fucked off, and after testing every Lemmy app I could find, I settled on Voyager. It’s not optimized for foldables like Relay—and it’s swipe gestures aren’t as intuitive—but it’s close and still better than paying to use reddit.

    Fuck reddit, and fuck Spez



  • Shit like this is why I’m glad that AMD stays on top of BIOS updates. Built my first AMD machine in 2022 and it’s blowing my mind that my motherboard is still being supported 3 years later. (I wanted to switch sooner, but my timing between builds was always bad. Missed out on Kuma, missed out on the Athlon era when they were embarrassing the Pentium 4.) When I was with Intel, I’d be lucky to get one BIOS update, if even that.

    Can’t wait for the end of the AM5 platform in a few years, when I’ll be able to upgrade my 7700X to the latest X3D chip, and practically have a brand new PC all over again.
