I'm so sorry about your cat. You have my condolences. It's going to hurt. Real bad. But you will come through. Life is precious because it is hard, not because it is easy. Be there for your cat. Let your touch, smell, and sight be

A "spreadsheet" pre-dates computers. It literally was born from paper and pencil to record financial information and transactions in a ledger. The innovation of the computer spreadsheet program is being able to put formulas in cel

Going through my subscriptions, it's sad to see so many with talent, even those with lots of subscribers, not having posted a video in years. Here are some I subscribe to that seem to be still active. You could see if your audience mig

My first distro was Red Hat 5 as well. It is disambigous, it was called "Red Hat Linux version 5". Red Hat Linux went to version 9 I believe before it split into RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) and Fedora.

Because by paying a fee to Arm, they get decades of architecture experience, support, peripherals (including a well-thought-out internal BUS), etc. RISC-V has a good ISA, but there currently isn't a lot of silicon experience in the rea

Unfortunately, no one buys subscriptions any more, and advertisers have moved to Facebook and Google. The ad-based internet has conditioned people to expect free content, and the internet ad model incentivizes click-bait low quality content
