UAE will buy it

Not sure what is this about (I don’t watch YT) and if it’s a twitter thread, I never know if I have to start to read from the top or bottom?

Just use UAD to disable the service, easy

I don’t care about Facebook, but Messenger and Marketplace I cannot replace them at all for the moment :-/

I have a 240W extension from AliExpress, used with a 120W power for my laptop, it never gets hot even when using 100+W

it was mostly flame wars, alt.bin.pictures.erotica, warez, discussion about The Simpson, and of course The Oracle, and Kibo.

EDIT for young people, the usenet oracle and kibology

Linux is C only, ever read the rant by Linus last century about C++ ? I was there, in usenet

same, I am not a gamer but developer, I replaced a bulky full ATX tower (core i7) with a mini PC Beelink SER5 (a 5600H, before 5800H was out so got a good price)

don’t forget mini PC like a beelink with a 8745HS for instance can be pretty great for games

Yup, it was the good old time, on a 486

I do, first install using floppies, kernel v0.99, and more floppies for X

maybe slashdot.org but it’s not a community per see

I find that Dell is very Linux friendly, some of them even comes with Ubuntu installed and supported on them.

You can find a slightly used one for a few hundreds $, and they are easy to upgrade, repair, etc, buy a Precision or Latitude that is coming from a company replacing them after 3 years.

DOGE will abolish the FBI, good luck 🤞🏻

PWA in Linux is unusable yep, with FF or Edge, super buggy.

I’m using Teams in Windows, I have a software KVM to move between my Linux PC and work windows laptop

Well, I’m a unix guy for 30 years and hated M$ bill gates blablabla and forced to use windows at work etc. Teams was somewhat bad at the beginning, especially start of covid pandemic , I’m using Teams multiple times daily for ~5 years now. But since ~1 year it handles video call pretty nicely, 20+ feeds, share screens, whiteboard, etc. it’s pretty stable at least, don’t crash anymore, and we can have multiple accounts. It took times to reach this state I agree…

the development/testing is done on Windows under VMs rather than a sample of real world hardware

I highly doubt it, seriously, I don’t think they test update some VMs and say “that’s good”, there’s thousands and thousands people working at MS, I don’t know how many on win11 but certainly a few hundreds, I doubt none of them install the upgrade on real hardware to test.

mainly wrong, by default kill send a SIGTERM, you can try SIGINT or SIGQUIT too, and in the end SIGKILL of course. Same in windows there is different way

I’m using MX Linux Xfce (Debian based), whenever a new FF is released, it takes a few hours or the next day to have it appears in my update
