Linux is close, but has some core flaws that will forever keep it out of mainstream acceptance by your average user.
It has nothing to do with any flaws within Linux itself. The problem is and has always been that it’s nearly impossible to buy a PC with any flavour of Linux pre-installed. Until that changes, Linux (on home user desktops) will never gain mainstream acceptance.
Maybe it’s anticompetitive conduct by the provider (like Microsoft using its market power on Outlook/Exchange to push other services like Teams over its competition)
That’s exactly what it is. They leveraged their dominance/monopoly in one market to gain a stranglehold on another market. It’s not exactly a new tactic for Microsoft either.
It is on the 16th, but you’ve been able to pre-order for a while. It’s pre-order folks that are getting refunded.
It’s an argument about critical paths in a project. Also, is no-one going to credit “The Mythical Man Month” where this quote comes from?
If I were on Tesla’s board, I would be doing my best to get Elon the hell away from the brand.
That’s interesting, what’s so clever or original about its algorithm?
No, they’re nearly all standalone. Tales of Arise is great too.
Tales of Berseria. I loved the 40 hours I spent with Velvet and friends, but that ending really upset me and I couldn’t stop thinking about it after.
The OpenSSH and OpenBSD lead. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theo_de_Raadt
It’s a bootstrap modal, not an alert. In Firefox you can just hold shift when right clicking to bypass the js events and show the menu anyway.
Yes, /dev/hdX was IDE disks.
Video nasty was slang for graphic horror movies, not porn. Not heard anyone say it since the 80s though.
Don’t know what country you’re in, but Decathlon in the UK (and possibly other countries) does this. There are no traditional manned checkouts in there at all.
it is still an inferior experience to Windows for anybody that isn’t incredibly tech savvy and the kind of person that lives and breathes command lines.
Since when do you have to live and breathe command lines to use SteamOS?
But then again, what did I expect from an industry where people are genuinely paid to talk out of their butts about games.
Yeah, there’s only one person talking out of their butt here.
But there has been the occasional ‘Steam Deck Verified’ game like Cthulhu Saves The World which soft locks on a black screen after battles.
Oh well, I guess if you have a problem with one verified game then we should all write off the entire platform then.
Man, if only we could buy printers online!
Nonsense. It’s simply that that kind of conduct is deeply unprofessional and reflects poorly on Linus. He could have said the exact same things about the issues with that patch without the obscenities and personal attacks.
I’ve worked as a software team lead for nearly 30 years, you do not get the best out of people by belittling and berating them.
Did you miss their username?
Why was it a mistake? I’ve used Google workspaces for business email for about 5 years and find it to be a really good and inexpensive service.
It’s possible they did. I think Dell briefly discussed it as an option, before using it as leverage to get cheaper Windows licenses from Microsoft. The EEE PC also shipped with its own Linux distro and appropriate hardware drivers.
This was why I said “nearly impossible” :)
