Likewise. Don’t expect it from China though.

China has no need for open source because they steal everything anyway.

We don’t cotton to freaks around here.

How many months do you leave them in the water? 50? 60? Or do you ever take them back out?

You know, I think if Stallman had put as much thought into the code of HURD as he did the acronym, Linus Torvalds wouldn’t be where he is today.

Found the microbrain.

Hear the kitty, greedy kitty

She is begging for food

She has noticed that I’m cooking chicken

Hear her meowing, greedy meowing

She won’t leave me alone

She won’t shut up till she gets a piece

Silver cat, Izzy cat

It’s feeding time, for the kitty.

Hear her whine, all the time

My little mooch of a pet!

I Feel Good by James Brown was in the trailer for every family comedy made for over a decade.

Yeah if 4 people uninstalled the program last time, and 6 people uninstalled it this time, that’s a 150% increase from last time.

I accept your reality and add it to my own.

Pixelfed I think? Though it’s developed by the same guy as whatever the Instagram clone is called so it’s been kind of slow to become usable?

I will assert that, again, for most people, instead of computers remaining at the same TDP but increasing vastly in processing power, they would have been fine with the same processing power at vastly decreased TDP. Look at how long people held onto Win 7, and how long they held onto Win XP before that. Because they were fine, possibly better than the new offering, especially since you already owned it. Some time around 2012, anyone who wasn’t a power user ran out of reasons to get excited for new computers.

Don’t we have that?

That tracks.

I’m 100% okay with how my Samsung Galaxy handles it: You access the Developer mode by pressing on the phone info screen in the settings for several seconds, and then there’s a switch that allows execution of random .apk files.

“Yes, do as I say.”

For most people, computers became powerful enough around the year 2005. A machine from late in the Windows XP era could run 3D games, CAD software, edit video, communicate with the entire world through broadband internet. What abilities have PCs taken on since? So much processing power filled up by doing the same tasks less efficiently for no reason.

The workers quarters at the Giza necropolis have been excavated, and they found evidence that the work crews lived a pretty high standard of life. Yes, as far as I know other than transporting stones via the Nile they were built with human muscle power, but the men cutting and moving the stones were fed an extremely luxurious diet for the time. Huge numbers of bakeries were found, along with evidence of vegetables, fish, beef…my personal hypothesis is this is a requirement; the Great Pyramid is probably the greatest feat of athleticism ever performed, and you had to feed the men lots of calories, protein, vitamins and minerals to get it done.

They got healthcare, too. There have been bodies found that showed healed amputations. People got hurt on the job but were cared for as best as they knew how 4,000 years ago.

Now imagine you’re a young man living in some village in lower Egypt in the 4th dynasty, and a royal messenger shows up recruiting workers to build some big triangle in the West for the king, and they promise wages along with all the beer, bread and steak you can eat made and served by more young women than you knew existed, plus medical and dental. You’d probably go check out the king’s big triangle thing. I’ve taken worse jobs than that.

The dreaded Wii U Fit.
