If saving the planet means giving up cheese, you have to start wondering if it’s worth it.

“I’ll tell you how I feel about school, Jerry: It’s a waste of time. Bunch of people runnin’ around bumpin’ into each other, got a guy up front says, ‘Two plus two,’ and the people in the back say, ‘Four.’ Then the bell rings and they give you a carton of milk and a piece of paper that says you can go take a dump or somethin’. I mean, it’s not a place for smart people, Jerry. I know that’s not a popular opinion, but that’s my two cents on the issue.” — Rick

This is all of the bits that aren’t the operating system.

It’s concerning that you think “just buy new stuff” is reasonable and that Windows should only work on new hardware out of the box.

It reads like they have their family held hostage.

I’d guess it’s a cat and mouse game with Google to keep it functional.

I like the pipedlink bot and the issue seems to be resolved now. Pipedlink bot works for users without having to run a particular os or plugin/add-on.

Twitter would have turned out better if they had followed the same pattern.

Microsoft are deep into the government with exchange and Active Directory with most being migrated to Microsoft365 and Azure.

Add in MS Teams, SharePoint, MS SQL, 30 years of business rules living in old excel macros that ends up running the entire company.

Windows enterprise licences would be a tiny part of their spend and far too costly to mitigate away from. Most large corporations are virtualising old windows version just to keep their existing legacy apps runnings.

I feel arch users would be far more popular if this were true.

I only just got latte-dock. I’ll need to look into panels, it looks really good.

What are you running? How was this done?

It’s actually Apple records sues computer company for stealing their name.

Agreed. Apple provides a free service locked to their hardware. It shouldn’t be surprising that they patched the vulnerabilities and blocked accounts.

Windows has WSL which is nice, however MacOS is Darwin and at least *NIX like.

It’s Linux then all *nix and then Windows at the very bottom.

Mozilla Thunderbird is free and open source (foss)

Which is all foundry investment. None of the technology needed belongs to Taiwan. Intel is ramping up for Intel 3 and are already doing high volume production on the Intel 4 using EUV.

Foundries are extremely expensive and everyone was happy to let Taiwan do the whole thing. Now with the geopolitical risk, investment is ramping up into chip foundries again. Once that is done the manufacturing will be mostly on par. Which is completely different to your first post about wizards and no one else can do it nonsense.

We are however going around in circles so I’ll likely leave it here.

You haven’t named a single technology.

What Taiwanese technology? Name some.

Intel is building fabs, TSMC is moving away from Taiwan due to the geopolitical risks.
