BTW, if you want to design some models for 3D printing but the only thing you know to do is to code, you can use OpenSCAD & program the obejcrs into existence: https://openscad.org/ Also recommend using the BOSL2 librar

Actually I think Lukasenko only plays dump & wants to wait it out, expecting Belarus to be left standing in a quite good position once Russia goes down the failed state route.

In 2025+ you also need to count in deniable accident inducing naval drones - both surface and underwater types. So their position would be even more untenable

There are biggest protests in Iran in years & they lost a war with Israel recently - I don't see them being a problem in a long term & with a bit of luck their horrendous regime that regularly slaughters their own citizens migh

Still I don't see an issue - basically you either pay the armed coast gard cutter that stands in your way or you don't go through the straight. If you don't cause any trouble, the other cutter on the other end will pay you ba

Wouldn't it be great if companies spent the time and effort needed for all these wonderful things that prevent the owner from using the hardware they own how they see fit and instead invested the resources into making the product bette

I find even just the possibility of this happening frankly insane - if the current licensing or copyright system allows something like this, the we need a new one.

Aren't rare earth metals used mainly for batteries, not chips ? I guess people might be mixing up all the headlines of all the articles they did not read by this point.

Even if you can point to some positive outcomes the is the main issue of the whole system being so easy to corrupt and coopt for personal gain & power trips. You might get lower infant mortality, better access to healtcare ans aeducatio

Well, voting rights in Soviet Union & the whole eastern block were not really that useful. :P

I do wonder how usable the hardware will be once the creditors are trying to sell it - as far as I can tell is seems the current trend is more and more custom no-matter-the cost super expensive power-inefficient hardware. The situation migh

I would argue the ammount of space in cities wasted on cars and their infrastructure is totally insane.

If you just need something that runs a browser, can't you do that with something like Chrome OS/MacOS/RHEL Workstation/whatever SUSE has for workstation users ? :)

Are you sure the subscription will still be affordable after the venture capital flood ends and the dumping stops?

Not to mention the code being open source & in need to be accepted upstream to be actually useful in the long term.

It kinda looked like this is the future, about at the same time they introduced WSL, released dotNET for Linux and started contributing to the Linux Kernel - all the while making the bank with Azure mostly thanks to running Linux workloads.

With the massive adoption of web apps in Enterprise I have seen I would expect Windows to become irelevant or even a liability in business use as well.

Add to that all the bullshit they have been pushing on their customers lately: * OS level adds * invasive AI integration * dropping support for 40% of their installed base (Windows 10) * forcing useless DRM/trusted computing hardware -

Yeah, I have been working on the RHEL and Fedora installer since 2013 and already back then it had a long history almost lost to time - the git history goes all the way back to 1999 (the history was imported from CVS, as it predates Git) an
