I think it’s absurd to think any anti-cheat coming from China isn’t actively spying on you.
Our data has proven to be very lucrative. The companies that make anti-cheat are also the types of companies that would want to cash in on our data.
I knew he was a shithead, but I didn’t realise how much of one.
Your infographic shows that suse was rebased off jurix and redhat after it stopped being Slackware based.
No! You don’t understand. It’s all about the scary CPC spying on you. Wholesome American, European, and Japanese corporations spying on you would never misuse that information.
I used FreeBSD before I used Linux. It was still really complicated to set up at the time. I can’t speak to modern versions. I also used openbsd more recently to make a router out of a sun ultra 5 I trash picked. Learning pf and seeing up a router all by hand was a good learning experience. Then the hd crashed and I didn’t have a backup of my configs. I didn’t have enough ambition to start from scratch, and there are plenty of modern distros that are ready made routers.
Terrible GUI? Microsoft can’t even keep their print dialog consistent across their own programs, let alone dealing with different dialog boxes across third party software.
I agree on the package manager. I got so used to rpm style from SuSE that I have a hard time with Debian based systems.
I think the stable hardware is a bigger deal than people realize. Windows is already a moving target for devs with all of the different hardware options. Linux just compounds that with the multitude of distros. Having something that the devs can target makes their job easier, but it allows those of us who are willing to get into the guts of it something we can tweak to work on just about any distro and hardware.
That’s a weird way to spell Vim, Arch, and C
I didn’t work there. I was a customer. I didn’t know what they were using. I didn’t recognize the interface, I just barely know enough about databases to recognize that’s what he was doing.
The salesman I was dealing with seemed to have no trouble using it, but all he was doing was using a web browser and some database access.
When I was at Driver’s Village, a fairly large dealership in central New York, I noticed the salesman was using a computer with wallpaper that said Windows 11. This was before Windows 11 was even released. It was very obviously a Gnome desktop. I’m guessing IT just put the windows 11 background on it so the people using it wouldn’t complain that they didn’t know how to use Linux.
Anathem is my personal favorite. One of the very few books I’ve read multiple times.
Yeah, that’s only acceptable if it’s right wing government censorship.
I think they mean paying for these ads in the “creative” bookkeeping way.
I agree with most of what you said, especially the multiplayer part. I had a switch almost exclusively to play Mario kart with friends. It’s just a much simpler experience on the switch especially with the controllers I prefer to use. The one thing I still disagree on is sharing games. You can share steam games, even triple A titles with friends and family. It’s not a easy as just handing them a cart, but how many people still buy physical games anymore with how easy digital distribution is. I know I do, because I’m old. I’m glad I did too since that gave me the ability to give my copy of Mario kart to one of my nieces and my switch to another.
It’ll be ready next year I promise.
