It seems kind of disingenuous to compare enterprise support contracts for Linux to personal Windows licenses. Especially while also ignoring that you do pay for Windows, it’s just hidden in the cost of the device.

Though it is also true that Linux is gratis and Windows is not.

IMO the early game exploration rush is the best part. Anomalies and archaeological digs give that great Star Trek vibe that kind of goes away once everyone is settled into their borders.

Yeah, my mom used to work for an organization called ARC, which pointedly hasn’t been an acronym since the early '90s.

In fairness, the first iteration of that deal was Pepsi for Stolichnaya.

On the other side [Wayland] is buggy af.

I’ve been having the exact opposite problem since recently coming back to Linux after a long hiatus. For me, Wayland has been flawless, while anything x11 looks like somebody ran the screen through a shredder, discarded half the strips, and smooshed the rest back together.

I don’t know how to troubleshoot that. I don’t even know what to type in a search engine to get relevant results.

First OS on a computer I personally owned? Windows 98. First Linux distro was Source Mage.

If not counting ownership, then Apple IIs at school and then slightly later my family got an Amstrad that was primarily a DOS machine, but could also boot (by switching floppies several times) to some sort of GUI.

I don’t think I’ve ever had it straight, but clamato is pretty good in a michelada.

That was actually Unix. Specifically the fsn file manager for IRIX.

There’s a Linux clone called fsv.

Also rooks.

My guess would be that it’s a plaster cast of an ant nest.

Or DOS Shell.

This is much prettier, though.

Biblically accurate kitty.

That doesn’t sound right

Can we call it a swap zone instead?

As far as any of those sites are concerned, I was born January first, [the earliest year they allow].

Pfft, catapults. A trebuchet can launch a 90kg advertisement over 300 meters.

Live action Launchpad McQuack.

It’s where everybody gets off.

That math assumes a flat distribution of popping times, which I suspect is incorrect.

Listening to a bag of microwave popcorn, it starts off slow, gets more rapid, and then tapers off again, implying that kernels are more likely to pop near the average time, which makes it somewhat more likely for two kernels to pop simultaneously.

But yeah, whole bag at once is probably still basically zero. Unless you use one of these, of course.
