I don't think that is the general problem. More so inconstancy. It's almost harder to quit vi then to delete your boot record. I am not sure many tools are even that powerful. Which often means you have to use many…
I don't find that annoyance particularly grave or different from other annoyances. I just updated and rebooted my Windows machine I haven't used for a month, took maybe 5 seconds longer than usual. Regardless if that…
I think you are being unfairly downvoted. On of the major downsides to Linux is that while you can, and often have to, tinker to make it work you can break it on many levels. Sometimes it's even hard to know if it is…
Few of those fields have professional software available for Linux i.e. what is actually used in the industry. It's the students, engineers and artists that are invested enough to switch platforms. Most people are just…
> That doesn't necessarily mean Windows offers a significant value proposition over Linux either. But as far as I know that is this case. That Microsoft's offering is much stronger when it comes to large scale corporate…
I don't see how that is a specific problem. All operating systems have annoyances. But if you are for example an engineer you won't find a competitive range of software on Linux. For someone in need of doing software…
I don't see how inertia would be the reason if you also believe that it has been good enough for 15 years. I would say desktop Linux simply doesn't offer enough unique value for the effort involved in large scale…
I think it is more if they will encourage any use outside of the control of Google. Or if they, like with Android where they illegally obstructed companies from doing so, will even discourage it.
Then we disagree. Linux works until is doesn't, which is the problem. It isn't a handful of programs so much as a wide range of capabilities. We can all speculate the taste of the average user, but do you think…
Why? As far as I am concerned these are all legacy problems. Drivers mostly work, people are aware of Linux and it can be e.g. run off an external drive. The problem is desktop Linux just isn't good enough. From a macro…
So your opinion is that it's ready?
Despite the wording I don't think that is the original definition? The idea is to make Linux viable as a desktop operating system, and whatever comes with that. Not running Linux as an application on another desktop.…
I don't see it making much of a difference for developer OS experience though? Unless you are specifically developing for example a Linux distribution.
> This is probably controversial but my guess here is this; [...] Not so much controversial as I don't understand what it means. Maybe you could give an example of what that would be?
Colonialism tends to imply a shift of influence. A government bending to the will of foreign companies to keep their power. This is more foreign companies bending to the will of the Chinese government so they can keep…
There are at least charging stations for buses. For example: https://www.oppcharge.org/ https://www.heliox.nl/ What I would really like to see are small self-driving battery powered trams. (Seems like large "bi-mode"…
My opinion is largely in line with "bilbo0s". What I would emphasis is that I don't object to your solution as such. It is that if you are having mental problems your mind is by definition already compromised. That you…
I don't see how that is a pragmatic view. Rather the idea that you can fix something with personal responsibility, true introspection and growth to find true happiness is quite distinctly romantic.
Square corners seems likely to be less space efficient, which is one consideration of pcb design. Why we don't use round corners or fluid traces might be a better question.
It isn't technically hard. What is hard is making it a priority. Many countries have exchanged long term competitiveness for short term gains. Decommodifying housing would impact those who made it their business. The…
You won't have universal anything, and especially not income, without equality. The reason that welfare states have low income inequality is because that is a requirement for redistribution. The gains from further…
I wouldn't overemphasis the troubles of the world. The main issues is that people don't get to enjoy progress to the extent necessary to create a sustainable prosperous society. Decommodifying housing, education and…
I do think smart phones affect people. However what people don't ask when the speculate about the young is whether you are better off otherwise. It isn't really a smart phone, college debt or even housing crisis. It is…
What hardline though? One can't on the one hand sell manufacturing, technology, companies and even infrastructure to China and on the other claim to be uncompromising. I wouldn't mind an actual uncompromising stance on…
There are also many example of Google doing just that to various degrees when it comes to open source projects, security research, their own products, dealing with vendors, customers or employment among other things.…
