Take a look at this: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?bIsQueue=false&bI... Now a bunch of these are old ratings, but it should give you some sense of the history (current state?) of things. I think maybe Word

I understand why games are a big part of their focus, but I wish regular boring windows software was a bigger focus. I've tried so many times over the years to get WordPerfect and a few other niche business apps going in Wine/Cros

Just as a reminder making crack-proof encryption standard everywhere is a trade off. It’s often discussed and presented in forums like this as the only and just choice (and I believe net it is), but in doing so WILL lead to bad outcomes. Te

Interestingly it seems 32-but raspbian is recommended over 64-bit even on the zero 2 which is 64-bit. Note it still has the same tiny amount of ram.

The people and skillsets to successfully run a company have little overlap with strong software engineers. It happens, but no where near the numbers of engineers out there. Plus if you kill off many engineers jobs, who is left to buy your p

I haven’t been laid off, you’re right. I’m just saying the GP made lots of absolute claims that aren’t absolutely true. Of course many European countries have bigger and better safety nets than the US, but it’s not like the US has none. Mos
