Trump wants a war though. It’s how he intends to stay in power. He either becomes a god emperor or takes the country down with him.

There’s another thing that frustrates me about Linux and its various philosophies. Should I be allowed to do what I want with my software? Or should the machine protect me from myself? It seems at conflict with itself to allow you to do stuff like delete system files without much more than a warning while also having protections in place as you describe. Windows tried doing this exact thing with S Mode and people get pissed about windows not allowing them to do whatever they want.

I fundamentally disagree that users should not be allowed to install whatever they want from wherever they want.

Preface: I am a Linux user

The Linux desktop needs to not require users to dig through config files to enable features that both windows and Mac have working by default. Fingerprint sensors, audio interfaces, broken bootloaders that you have to fix yourself. Requiring people to ever use a command line even once will keep people on Windows as the dominant platform.

Every time I have to look at a Linux forum to figure out why something isn’t working and the answers are run these commands I am instantly reminded that this is the exact thing keeping Windows mainstream.

Driver support still isn’t perfect. Software support as well. Linux needs to ship out of the box running exe files in compatibility layers. Linux needs to adopt executable installers for software packages that can be downloaded on the web. If Linux wants to be the way people use computers, Linux needs to fit the mould that windows has built for the people who have used it for the last 40 years.

Doing anything differently is enough of a deterrent for 90% of computer users. And of those 90%, 75% of them will give up immediately trying to fix anything that doesn’t work and either call someone else or decide it’s broken and do nothing.

Linux is incredibly powerful and I believe it should be the way we run computers, but I get exactly why it isn’t.

Actually Firefox is continued development from Netscape Navigator which predates Internet Explorer. Firefox is the grand daddy of internet browsers in that way.

You can actually host your own firefox sync service. It’s kinda a pain to configure auth but it is entirely possible.

Lenses distort features at different focal lengths without any filtering. An extreme example is fish eye lenses on action cameras.

It’s more like the MSP IT style of business. There are clients that consult you for your experience or that you spend a contracted amount of time with and then you bill them for your time as a service. You aren’t an employee of theirs.

Your source says the same thing I said… The word soccer comes from abbreviating “association”. As in association football.

That’s not true… Soccer is what some of the english called it and that was an abbreviation of association football. It has always been football and for a short time in one place it was soccer in england and then it was football again everywhere. It came to the US as soccer and never changed. But it was always football.

Thin clients still require ram and storage at the terminals and lots of both at the server. If a thin client deployment is not already in place, it will be a huge financial burden for corporations from hardware deployment as well as time lost to employees learning process changes. This is the exact reason large organizations slow roll deployments instead of making fast changes.

Guns are also useful. Especially with the world at its wits end with Nazis

I am an L3 for an MSP. I pretty much exclusively use terminal on windows 11. Tends to be the old guys I work with that use cmd still. It’s fine to have lots of experience doing things the way you’ve always done them. It’s also fine for there to be improvements in the systems we use.

It is the default shell application in windows 11 these days. As of 23h2 I believe.

You can use cmd. But in windows 11, terminal is the default shell. It is miles better than cmd and powers hell in that it can run tabbed versions of any shells you have installed. Pyshell, chocolaty, git bash, azure cloud, even anaconda. It is all available in one place and has a lot of quality of life improvements. It’s also not bloated at the same time if you can believe that.

Anyone find anything nefarious in the EULA after this update?

No absolutely not. You invite their account to access a designated device or multiple devices on your tailscale network.

Tailscale actually uses wire guard as well. It can also be used as an exit node for mullvad so you can use tailscale as your full stack vpn solution.

Don’t port forward Jellyfin. That’s terribly insecure. Just install tailscale or similar and invite the people you wish to allow access.

If you follow the standard 5 day business week, that is 70 hours worked for every 50 hours not worked. Account for 8 hours of sleep a night and you have 2 hours a day to commute to your job. Literally zero time for any other needs. And that’s ONLY if you are generous enough to give everyone the weekend to recharge.

For a 7 day work week with no days off, allowing for 8 hours of sleep per day and 2 hours of commute time, that is 4 hours a day to do anything else. I also would assume that part of the day would still be considered off hours for lunch. As well. Call it 3 hours a day for anything not work related.

This man should be hanged for even suggesting this as a reasonable productivity schedule for any living being.

“a lot”, not “alot”. This is an alot!
