UPDATED ON: 2022-03-06 Corel Draw 2022 confirmed to work on Windows 7, but w/o GPU acceleration. 2020 version also don’t provide GPU extensions, but you can ignore this if you have fast 8-16 multicore CPU.
Just run into difficulties during Corel Painter 2020 installation process. Right after the first screen i can’t press [Next »] button.
Problem was solved by dropping down security level in Internet Explorer 11 [!]
I can’t even describe my feelings regarding the topic. Just look what Ghacks.net threw at our faces!
THIS IS [RIDICULOUS]
!
Who needs another dump number 12? If 10 & 11 are already pretty deep garbage.

This is not an AD post, just reporting that i’ve switched from annoying teamviewer for a better remote tool and grateful to developers of software.
I fed up with teamviewer’s nag-screens and constant mumbling that i use software not for a personal use. During 2020 i’ve used hacked version with auto-generator of my client ID to prevent nag-screen triggering, but when i find out that their android client is full of telemetry stuff i’ve decided to ditch it completely.

UPDATED ON: 2023-08-05 v0.19.2 ia a last version to run on Windows 7/8.1, but it is not working anymore due to recent YT changes Reasons not to use original YT site and native android clients: Wild censorship and tracking of personal data The most pathetic roayalties to platform contributors Unwilling to listen to contributor community [problem of all big corps] [In previous post]

I’m almost sure that you already know about excellent Android YT client [NewPipe]
. It is praised for it’s lightness, speed and freedom from YT closed source API. As you may know that in recent pursuit for profit google increased ads quantities and methods of it’s delivery.

However, there is a nice workaround. By adding –no-dwm-warning switch to starting shortcut you can avoid internal restriction.

Previously i was adept of japanese keyboard [Topre RealForce RGB]
. Device relies on high-end rubber-dome capacitive key switches, which distinguish Realforce from generic rubber-dome keyboards. Solid construction is also included. However double shot ABS keycaps were not so durable in the long run of almost two years of heavy typing.
So, i’ve decided to switch to something more reliable and compact. My search brought me to [Vortex Race III RGB]

Most modern marketing smart-phones are mumbling about support of really large SD cards. But only on Hi-End models. I’m not even speaking about pathetic iphones, which are disabled in terms of external storage due to the greed of executive directors. In this note i will check old mastodonts like:
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact [2017]]
[Nokia PureView 808 [2012]]
for compatibility with such ENORMOUS storage device.
Sony XZ1 Compact handles such capacity without any problems.

In this guide i will quickly show my system configuration tweaked for privacy. I’m using essential stuff like 3G/4G/WiFi & BT. Additional pleasantries are blocked.

It is a known fact that dxomark resource
is a complete sellout and very prone to assign fake rankings. And no one in sane condition will use their results as a reference, because of their prepaid nature. dxomark’s cool conclusion of the past
that iphone is better then [Nokia PureView 808]

Not long ago i’ve discovered that one of my favorite tech forum is forced to stop providing services, by atrocious coalition of putrid companies like microsoft and intel. It looks like the first one is angry that people continue to use “obsolete” Windows 7.
Authoritative member of Win-Raid community [Canonkong]
confirmed that x570s chipset is fully operational under Windows 7. In terms of overall compatibility he recommends MSI boards. Please note that [Asrock motherboards are not compatible with Windows 7]
anymore because of notable BIOS changes. You’ll encounter A5/7E BSOD screens on random basis. The most distinctive feature of x570s chipset compared to x570 is absence of active cooling. Also it will support upcoming [Ryzen 5950XT]
CPU with larger 192Mb L3 v-cache.
Long time ago I’ve noticed prolonged trend to destroy advanced technology and sell cheap plastic things, powered by marketing slogans, which have zero significance in real life. Appointed trend applies to almost any products in our life, especially consumer and even professional electronics.
Some solid proof then.

I’ve decided to make a quick overview while my trusty Nokia 808 is in service. So I have some time to use Nokia E72 as my main GSM ringer.
What can I say about Nokia? Yeaaah, this is Nokia. I’m talking about original one, not about HMD concern of China, which make cheap android-based phones and awful camera-phones like [Nokia PureView 9]

Speaking of [Nokia E72]
, it is a premium business smartphone of mid 2000s era.

is a great graphical effects plugin pack to work with your favorite raster editor [mine is [Affinity Photo]
in case you are interested]. Everything is fine, except annoying update popup, which is opening right after every plugin initialization. Such stuff completely breaks workflow if you don’t want to update for some reason. And there is no way to turn it off from GUI using normal methods.
However, you can shut update checks off from configuration file, which is located here:
And will not sing praises on how cool Linux is. Because I know that it has its own quirks and inconveniences. For testing I almost randomly choose [Manjaro Linux]

.Yeah, ubuntu is too much pop for me. Key benefits of Manjaro are quite transparent: modern & stable environment and pretty vibrant community. I understand that Linux don’t have all software, which I need and try to find software replacement in a while.
UPDATED ON: 2023-02-20 I recommend to replace Fennec F-Droid with [Mull Browser]
due to the fact that is COMPLETELY free from telemetry. In contrast to Fennec Mull browser do not trigger any mozilla or google connections, so take a note. And for God’s sake do not use plain Firefox, it is almost like chrome now!
