I have no idea, I just have a copy from TPB. Its still supported tho. Still getting security updates. I think until 2030 ish? I'm not sure, I think the older versions of LTSC had longer guaranteed support than the newer ones.

I'm doing more and more on Linux Mint these days, but there are a few niche things that still only work good on Windows. Windows 10 LTSC 2021 IOT is great tbh.. Install it without internet and you dont need a MS account at all.

I feel like I live on a different planet to many on HN.. Any time I've dabbled with the current roster of LLMs for work tasks (I'm a game programmer). They are utterly useless, complete waste of time. Definitely not something that

The jokes around Y2K being a nothing burger always annoy me. Nothing happened because a lot of talented people worked their asses off fixing it.

I always point this out too. They had a war of independence, the main goal of which was so the elite slave owning class wouldn't have to pay tax. Yet they call it a revolution. They have never had an actual revolution akin to French re

Have you thought this through fully? In that case who'se supposed to be doing the arresting and killing? -- more ordinary people. Look at what happened to Ceaușescu for example. He went from being confident in his rule to dead 24 hours

Yeah that is good, there are some good things, but I think on average the computer user experience is worse.. In the 80's and 90's with the rise of microcomputers and the net and the web and Linux, things were so utopian, things j

When you look at how molecules like RNA work, and krebs cycle, and the billions of cells we are composed of, and so on, it always strikes me as astronomically lucky that we function at all. Like how can this assemblage of Rube Goldberg ma

What's happened in software / computing in the last 20 years that's good? Imo it could be argued that overall the user experience has gotten worse. Dead internet theory, enshittification. * The web is pretty much dead. Time B

Apparently one reason cars from the 90's last longer than new ones (which almost always fail in some way immediately after warranty expires) is the advancement and increased usage of computer modelling / simulation. In the 90'

Any of this kinda talk these days is just part of the hype train for the LLM companies tulipomania pyramid scheme. Afaik no-one that is actually working on AGI is anywhere close atm.

I find the stream rips to be really shitty quality.. The original source is very low bitrate, compressed tae fuck. I find for stream rips from netflix for example I need to download a 4k rip in order to watch in 1080, and that's accept

I mean I might be a hardware guy myself depending on your definition. I've never dealt with rocket engineers.. Are they "hardware guys" according to you? If so it seems you are using that term incredibly broadly.

In theory more automation = less drudge work for humans, so its great. But in practice, in corrupt societies, elites reap all the benefits while the lower classes eat all the downsides. The thing is though, this is not a tech problem, it&#x
