Familiarity goes a really long way. My mom still wants her PortalTV unit to answer to voice commands.
My mom and my wife’s mom have computers soon to be out of support. Windows.
They need something stable, but also that does all their normal stuff. I’d love something that updated cleanly like enterprise Linux, but gave them the win7 interface they had for so long (they complain about this one now).
So that’s your market. Yeah, a wine box would work well, and Nobara is nearly the winning candidate. But even it requires a lot of finagling for windows people, and I’d love something completely seamless so it’s easier to support.
They’ve only almost barely nearly shat out a usable Unix with hurd. Give them another few decades, my dude!
Tech isn’t an airport: you don’t have to announce your departure.


Nah. Link them all.
Since Trump reverses course every 4 days, ensure he has to act like an adult if he wants trade.


I just want to know why my Windows 10 laptop is waking up by itself in the middle of the night to apply updates it isn’t supposed to have?
To answer the question as written: yes.


Upgrades between major versions - since they can be radically different - is generally not an effective feature.
Having said that, conectiva’s apt-rpm could upgrade and downgrade between major versions; and it worked really well!


But to hear the EU post-meeting meeting would be entertaining. Such laughter.

The plot below shows the price of TVs across Best Buy’s Black Friday ads for the last 25 years. The units are “dollars per area-pixel”: price divided by screen area times the number of pixels (normalized so that standard definition = 1). This is to account for the fact that bigger, higher resolution TVs are more expensive. You can see that, in line with the inflation chart, the price per area-pixel has fallen by more than 90%.
Yay! Now do computer ram from 1980 to 2020 before Ai was involved, and discuss size per dollar. You wanna do CPUs or hard drives next?


The doors are ooky for me, but it looks really great with 'em closed, for sure.


That’s something the EU would do, but never America.


Yay! Now get people to never say ‘app’ when they mean ‘shitty DB web front-end’ .


Policy is not decided by logic and sense, my dude. Sorry you have the same wonks dictating that as I do.


If they kill oracle, will that kill the last Unix after IBM stole the parent OS of Solaris and put it into Novell’s oubliette to reduce competition?


People have been speaking with punctuation since language was invented. If you only now realize that pause is an em-dash, that’s on your schooling. :-p


This website is a blank page.
The onions are pretty strong here. AND the dust.
At 5 times the population, I’d hope so.
