The day I finally move to Belgium.

Unfortunately that day is still pretty far away from today. At least 5 years far away.

A little something called visa restrictions is what’s preventing me from going there immediately.

I think it suits me the most out of every western European country. Not to mention being the queer person that I am, I’d like to go somewhere where I’d be accepted.

Also, I’m a Moroccan that has so much trouble fitting into Moroccan society. I genuinely don’t feel attached to my country of origin at all, contrary to the “Moroccans” that live in Belgium today, no wonder why everyone in there is sick of them.

I even use a Flemish sounding username online just because it’s funny (the “Resol van Lemmy” bit)

I think it’s time for me to utter my favorite French proverb: “chacun a sa façon de rire” which translates to “everyone has their way of laughing”

Yeah, I know Belgium isn’t for everyone. It will never be for everyone. Nothing is for everyone.

Yeah there’s no denying that.

I like Bruges too

Same applies to Vista despite being much closet to Windows 7 than XP.

But I bet it’s this way only because nobody gave a shit about Vista. I was the only person who gave a shit about it.

Resol,

Windows 10 was the one that introduced this feature though.

Resol,

The stability of the NT combined with that classic Windows look and feel. God I wish this did get released to consumers instead of Windows Me.

But my virtualisation software treats basically every Windows version before Vista really poorly, even with the necessary drivers installed. I guess I’ll just get a real computer and install Windows 2000 on that instead.

Resol,
@Resol@lemmy.world avatar

Duh, I’d rather be stuck with Vista.

But since it’s not even an option, I would choose Windows 7 by default. Although 8.1 wasn’t really THAT bad, I just think it will be treated exactly the same as 7 in terms of software support, similarly to how programs dropped support for Vista at the same time they did for XP.

Resol,
@Resol@lemmy.world avatar

Computers did take the take to adapt to the new software requirements, not to mention the two service packs that were released. By the time that happened, Vista became really good, but nobody cared because Windows 7 was RIGHT around the corner.

And yeah, if Vista ran poorly on that Pentium 4 thing, then I would suspect 7 would run poorly on it as well. Hell, I tried a virtual machine that barely met the requirements for Windows 7, installed Vista on it, and as expected, it ran very poorly. I tried Windows 7 on it. Same thing, it ran very poorly.

XP had the exact same criticisms when it came out in 2001. Again, computers had time to adapt, and as a result, people started loving XP, and I mean they started LOVING it, A LOT.

Driver issues were mostly the fault of the manufacturers, not Microsoft. But even then, it would be a pretty terrible experience regardless.

Resol,
@Resol@lemmy.world avatar

Oh well.

At least they fixed it. But once they fixed it, nobody cared anymore.

Resol,

They need to give it a software update that essentially turns it into your average car entertainment system, with support for local files, AirPlay (and whatever the Android equivalent is… casting?), and other streaming services including Spotify (even the garbage free version), oh, and CDs too, with metadata. I mean, this thing is pretty good at modernizing older cars to an extent, why did they suddenly choose to get rid of it completely?

Resol,
@Resol@lemmy.world avatar

I’m pretty sure all it has is a USB-C port for power. But I think they can implement dongle support for things such as USB flash drives and CD drives. AirPlay (and its Android equivalent) can also be implemented since the device does indeed have Bluetooth.

That’s cool too

Be glad that it’s actually growing. It used to be so much lower.

And we’re gonna make it grow so much more.

Hi, KDE. Can we be friends?

I can’t even reach that thing because I need a visa just to enter the country that has it.

That picture will forever haunt me in my dreams.
