Bookmarked this for myself later. THANK YOU!
Nice to see someone not just shitting on Windows.
Nobody WANTS to use Windows, but I also don't want to fiddle with 17 different options and 12 builds of Wine to trick my one program I need to run on Linux.
No dammit. I want my browsing activity mixed in with 5,000 other peoples. Am I logging in to my bank or yours? That's the fun! Nobody knows!
Can this be my request to make a larger screened version no matter what the other options are?
I love my Pebble Time, but every time I try to use it for an extended period, coming from a Garmin Fenix 7X, it feels like I need a magnifying glass.
I also have loved Zooz and Z Wave. Definitely easily to use.
Bethesda designers taking notes for Fallout 5 lol
Honestly though….. I wouldn’t be against a Honda’d Nissan…….
This is bigger than just fucking over poor people (which it it totally does). Every school in the country gets reduced internet costs thanks to USF, libraries can afford public WiFi for everyone thanks to USF, a lot of the broadband grants that came out after Covid had something to do with USF.
This is bigger than killing net neutrality, this is a step back from any public help for getting people connected.
As someone who works in the telecommunications industry, look up RDOF.
Not only is it a HUGE timeline that does nothing to incentivize actually completing a project early, but the main RDOF winner in my area has only wireless service available with zero construction projects planned except to put up more wireless equipment.
It also means those areas that company claims they’ll serve one day are ineligible for any more grant money and now that companies that are willing to bring fiber to those homes have to pay a boatload out of pocket while the RDOF winner just hangs out and watches.
I own three houses and rent out two others thanks to my $1200 stimulus check.
It's the reason I dual boot, really. I periodically check to see if the programs I do want to use that work best on Windows work any better on Linux and it definitely gets better every time I check, but it's just not there 100 percent yet.
And blaming users for no reason than Microsoft is a terrible corporation and how dare anyone use it is an awful tactic to get people to switch.
I believe the Steam Deck has done more for running Windows programs on Linux than any other singular project (in terms of mainstream adoption, obviously Wine/Proton is the reason that even works) and they accomplished it by working WITH developers stuck on developing for Windows. Not by just telling those devs how awful they are and if they're looking for a half measure they can take to switch to Linux, they're on the wrong game store or whatever other response they've given.
