I switched to Linux full time (I’d gone back and forth for a while) about 10 years ago when my XP laptop died.
I had access to Windows 7 via work, but I didn’t like how much telemetry was being sent back to MS…

Now I’m just imagining Pliny the Elder with access to TikTok:

Pliny the Elder, The Natural History - BOOK XXVIII. REMEDIES DERIVED FROM LIVING CREATURES:

The human bite is also looked upon as one of the most dangerous of all. The proper remedy for it is human ear-wax: a thing that we must not be surprised at, seeing that, if applied immediately, it is a cure for the stings of scorpions even, and serpents.

If a woman takes the first tooth that; a child has shed, provided it has not touched the ground, and has it set in a bracelet, and wears it constantly upon her arm, it will preserve her from all pains in the uterus and adjacent parts.

For the cure of cataract, it is reckoned a good plan to apply a wolf’s excrements

For Enterprise/Education you can disable the ‘recommended’ section entirely via group policy. Doesn’t work for Pro/Home versions though, from what I remember.

It only works on desktop, but I use Syncthing to sync the whole profile (with the cache etc folders excluded).

You do need to make sure the profile path is identical on both machines as it’s hardcoded in the extensions json file, and otherwise your extensions won’t work properly.

So long as you close the browser on one machine before opening it on the other, it will sync your open tabs as well.

OP is clearly a troll:

In fact, trolls traditionally count like this: one, two, three . . . many, and people assume this means they can have no grasp of higher numbers.
They don’t realize that many can be a number. As in: one, two,three, many, many-one, many-two, many-three, many many, many-many-one, many-many-two, many-many-three, many many many, many-many-many-one, many-many-many-two, many-many-many-three, LOTS.

It depends - are you Inigo Montoya?

“…unfortunately, they can no longer move anything else.”

I got the Oasis/roll with it bit (probably because I’m old), but I had to look up what oasis soup was.

OASIS (Oldways Africana Soup In Stories) is a celebratory anthology of culturally-informed soup recipes that seeks to foster and expand conversation about nutritional knowledge and Black women’s wellness.

Edit: Though the book may have been based on the original joke, come to think of it…

Yeah, I’m running LineageOS with MicroG, so I tried disabling Android System Webview as a test. ReVanced seems perfectly happy to browse/play videos (though I didn’t try logging out). The only apps I have that fall over without webview seem to be eBay and Amazon, so no great loss there.
