It’s enabled by default when you login to windows with a Microsoft account, which they very rudely push on you and make it very difficult to login with a regular local account.

Why would 24/7 be full time? Lol

Not exactly true on Windows. BitLocker is enabled by default when signing in with an MS account, which is what I’ve done for nearly a decade and I think is the cause of my confusion. I’m just use to encryption being enabled by default and not having to think about it.

Wait wtf? You can just reset root password that easy? What’s even the point of having a password, if all of your data and info is so easily accessed if someone gets physical hold of the machine. I guess so software/remote hackers can’t get your stuff, but still. This seems wild to me, I dunno.

New to Linux so I’m sorry if I’m being ignorant, but it does seem crazy you can get access to a machine without the password.

Edit: Thanks for all the comments below! I guess I’ve been spoiled by BitLocker in Windows being enabled by default and not having to think of disk encryption. Appreciate everyone’s time and responses!

Hm, how does California get away with banning it then? Or is that next on the chopping block?

I’m sorry, what now?

Best comment I’ve read on lemmy yet.

Yea, honestly I think this is where an app can really shine vs using the website (currently).

Another example: Formula1 communities are on lemmy.world AND lemmy.ml. As a user and member of both, I don’t care which one I’m seeing/engaging with, I would rather they be grouped together so I can see the content from both at the same time rather than having to go to each community.

I guess this would be akin to Multireddits (I think it was called?) where you can pick and choose which communities you are subscribed to are grouped together. Meaning you could also do this for communities that don’t cover the same specific content, but a more general category, such as “computers” and have all computer related communities you subscribe to in that group.

I don’t get to where you are from links you provided but thanks for sharing.

First time I’ve ever seen someone say something negative about FF/Mozilla. Care to expand?

I have it locked at 30 fps out of habit. It runs pretty damn smooth, rarely dipping below 30 fps on medium settings. I haven’t played with any of the settings at all, just locked it to 39 fps and went in my way.
