The squirrels have won.
If they received a lot of money from their work and they used it to increase the impact of their projects, they wouldn’t be billionaires. The money would have been spent on the projects. If Linus headed a non-profit that received 10B a year revenue and spent most of it, leaving Linus with 0.5M-1M yearly salary, he wouldn’t be a billionaire and the billions spent on the Linux project would have had a significant impact. If on the other hand he pocketed 1B a year, there would be 1B less for the Linux project. And Linus would have been/become a different person.
Most of Canada hating Quebec? 🤦🤦♀️🤦♂️
If they were billionaires, they likely wouldn’t be the people they are today.
I guess we might not end up seeing the inevitable catastrophic economic results from Milei’s “platform.” Maybe we’ll see him chased off via mass protests before his dream is fully realized?
It’s been pretty good here for a couple of months. The ability to rank up/down, block/pin sources is a really good feature. When it fails, there’s always !g

This is not 2005 when the vast majority’s experience with interactive UX on a screen was Windows. People today operate Android, iOS much more so than Windows. Thus they are able to grok multiple OS chrome paradigms without much difficulty. And then the OS chrome is rather simple and therefore learning it doesn’t cost much or yield significant benefits should you have gotten that knowledge for free. Therefore the argument for choosing an OS based on its chrome is as shallow as the chrome itself. The difficult stuff is things not working due to defects (bugs), finding solutions and implementing them and that’s where the OS choice yields the highest benefit. On that front few options beat Ubuntu LTS other than perhaps Debian, but Debian isn’t novice-friendly.
Parent comment is right. The body of documentation generated for Ubuntu by the community is an enormous asset. It’s one of the important side effects of it being the most used distro.
The bar might not be low enough.
Is there any evidence his replacement would be any different. I recently looked at the frontrunner party and I’m not seeing much hope for a drastic change. Perhaps sans the religious zealots.
What’s the message?
Can Navalny be alive if Putin did not want him to be?
Yeah, and doing this would take significantly longer to use every time than typing up a chain of commands in a terminal.
A CLI makes simple things easy to implement.
Make those charts explode.
I don’t know what’s available in Europe, but I’ve used Pluggable and StarTech dongles. They both work fine with Ubuntu without configuration. One of them is a Class 1 device, the other one Class 2. The Class 1 receiver has much better range and better connection stability. So the only useful thing I have to say is - look for a Class 1 receiver if you want the best range possible.
Weird. Perhaps a DNS issue? That said the domain was registered/updated a week ago, so your DNS server should have gotten the message by now.
