It's not *almost* cost prohibitive, here (in France) a max spec Apple laptop cost about 8500€. Ridiculous.

Why not a stable distro with KDE for Windows convert? KDE is the closest thing that looks like Windows.

I'm at the beginning of my third desktop Linux year and I managed to install it on all the hardware I have thrown at it ranging from 10+ years old PCs to a recent Ryzen workstation and a Framework laptop. I'm not a Linux guru by a

Contrary to Google, MS never kills any tech. You can still develop Winforms apps today.

Can't you use some kind of DNS blocker (like pi-hole or the other one) to block ads on your TV?

How is it different than Redhat promising 10 years of support for Centos 8 then leaving me stranded?

It's not surprising, humans have a thin veneer of rationality but are emotional creatures at their core. The last 3 years events proved it beyond any doubt.

It's available in France: https://store.google.com/fr/product/pixel_tablet?hl=fr

I guess it depends on the country, for me in France it redirected on the French version of the store and you can buy the tablet for 700€.

It's well known that at least since the antiquity humans were practising body weight exercises to strengthen themselves. I don't know how Neanderthals got strong but I'm not sure they had a lot of rocks to carry regularly.

Even if you're making your life revolve around body building you won't get as big as them if you don't take some questionable products.

What I meant is that the US is always more extreme but we have the same trends here. Where I'm from if you have the choice you avoid public transport because it's not very practical: buses are crowded and trains aren't flexib

I'm French, 1, 3 and 4 are true here too. There is no French miracle, it's just that we're lagging a bit with the US (usually 10 or 20 years depending on the matter).

> Julia Childs and French people couldn't be wrong: they consume plenty of rich food and they don't have American health problems. This is BS. I'm French, born and raised and we are plenty fat / unhealthy here. I&#x27

Have you cycled in the rain or snow? If yes how many times? Periodically I see colleagues trying to come at work by bicycle. The longest lasting record is one and half year. All the others didn't last after the summer. Fwiw it would ta

When developers talk about a "clean way" I immediately think of an over-engineered and over-abstracted piece of crap that will be so complicated to understand that the next team will rewrite from scratch. YMMV.

If you're doing low profile onenighters there's about zero chance to be bothered about it. Source : I did it a long time ago, I crossed France with my backpack from east to west then went in England. Only once a woman asked me wha

If the 3000 kilometers are a bit short you can always continue on the Via Del Norte in Spain to go to Santiago de Compostela. Brush up on your dog whispering skills as they're quite a nuisance here (it makes my hikes less enjoyable, I

They're both C++ though. Bindings aren't ideal, I wish there was a native Linux gui toolkit with a "sane" language.

I'm not sure of exactly what you need but a few years ago I toyed with my own OSM server. There was a tuto on a site named linuxbabe to install everything on Ubuntu. FWIW I generated all the tiles up to zoom 18 for France (which is the

I use both IDE. IMHO Visual Studio is a 5 stars hotel while Vs Code is like RV camping: comfortable but you still miss certain luxuries.

FWIW Android Open Source face recognition (GrapheneOS on a Pixel 4 XL) didn't work with a mask on unless it was under the nose. It didn't work either with a baseball cap and a mask under the nose.

Then there are people like me that will use the default font provided by the software they use. I have absolutely no idea what coding font I use (and it varies between IDE anyway).
