Is this "feature" due to the new ownership? I really don't like the direction it's going. Soon, we might not be able to make PRs without making our friends "help", and people will be making accounts for their c

I'm writing a powershell script at the moment. Why did I chose it? I didn't - it's the only thing guaranteed to be on Windows (realistically). The problem with powershell as a scripting language, is it's designed to also

Recently I tried to install Windows on some HP Elitebook, a few weeks back. It didn't have drivers for the graphics card, nor both network interfaces (and several other internal devices). How am I supposed to download the network drive

Your comment is the perfect example of how there's an "invisible" demand demand for gaming on Linux. Nobody can see it, because those who want it will mostly make do with Windows.

Linux desktop is more like an unpolished trumpet, with a few dents. After a small amount of tuning, it plays the perfect note every time. You can take it apart, and adjust the internals. If you wish, you can turn it into any other type of i

I agree. It's rough around the edges, but I only need to look at it for a few seconds when changing windows, for example. Other than that, it stays out of my way and doesn't tire me with animations which stopped looking cool the b
