Elon Derangement Syndrome is real, like the Trump equivalent.
All of the WWW was better in 2008. Unironically. We've all been frog-boiled into this current hellscape.
I know for sure NT4 didn't have defragging built in, because I was a Windows server admin back in the primordial soup that was sysadmin'ing in the 90's. >OCD soothing experience I've always felt it was a certain kind of…
That's 5 years longer than Apple.
>defragmentation Windows has had built in defrag since at least WinXP. I can't remember if Win2000 had it - I think it did. It runs in the background and you don't have to worry about it. 3rd party defrag tools are…
This truly is the clowniest timeline.
For that argument to hold, they'd also have to blacklist any phone not running the newest, most up to date Android version, because all older versions presumably have known exploits. So that basically leaves Pixel…
How does a rooted phone enable bank fraud? This smells like pointless policy checkboxing.

Things that are unneeded, ie. unmaintained, eventually get purged. It happens quite regularly. For nearly every kconfig option, someone needs it enough to maintain it. But I agree, `make menuconfig' is overwhelming.

I'm not saying it isn't, but I don't have a shred of sympathy for the developers manning the ovens. Pick a job that isn't actively harmful to society. If you're responsible for the system at Facebook that serves endless…
I don't want to Godwin this thread so early, but you know what analogy I'm thinking of. If you work as a developer for Google, Microsoft, Flock, CloudFlare, Facebook etc. etc. you are complicit in making the world a…
This. Debian+KDE. No AI and nothing happens on my computer that I don't know about.
A developer made whatever tech is currently pissing me off. I don't care about the supply chain.
Never has anything been blown out of proportion more than this Hot Coffee nothingburger. It astounds me that anyone took this seriously at the time.

But if you go too far in that direction, you end up at the Mozilla school of design. Alienating your core users, and designing a product for users that aren't there. Look at them now.
