Before she passed, I had one of my Grandmothers on Ubuntu for about a decade... I had to set it up for her, and I ran updates every few months for her, but she really didn't have an issue... Her Windows 9x era games even ran under Wine

Of course I've been using Cosmic for most of the past year now... It's getting better, but still some rough edges... the launch bar still doesn't feel quite right, and there's still times where keyboard navigation doesn

It will be overrun by those who have no job, family or responsibilities... it would be a free for all mess.

And this is different from current town halls how? If you have an important issue to you, there are ways to be heard, and they aren't always convenient. This is how representative democracy is meant to work... you work/talk with

I'm of a similar mindset... pure/liquid democracy is literally rule by mob. It can only amplify choices made by feeling over substance. As an ideal, I've always favored a libertarian mindset... my freedom should extend so fa

I'm also somewhat curious about how "hateful content" is defined... I mean having a serious discussion on policies around children in schools and sport regarding trans issues has been labelled in some circles as hateful conte

Kind of there with you... was pretty surprised how big the surface was with Zed, and it definitely doesn't do all the things I do in Code currently.

I'm kind of there with you... I will even actively avoid sites that don't have some kind of comments. Though I do wish more of them would load on demand, or even shift to another page for comments vs. loading a lot of JS or remo

You have to have a working mail server attached to a domain to be able to send mail... that's the big part. Right now, email can more or less come to anywhere from anywhere as anyone. There are extensions for signing connections, tls

Okay... I was just adding my own experience as I was able to deliver to some without issue and not the one. It's entirely possible this has changed in the past couple years since I was actively testing.

I think Dollhouse would have been better had it been an HBO series rather than on Fox... Likely 90% of the issues were studio interference. And totally agreed on Westworld... they just went off the rails at some point.

My SO's Buick Enclave has a screen behind the rearview mirror that can be set to show the backup camera. Works okay, but I prefer the actual mirror and just use the dash display. That said, vision issues, so not driving since around

I think it was a Dodge Neon from the early 00s that had the worst rear view I'd experienced. My Challenger was close, but the backup camera and blind spot sensors helped a lot. You could hide a bus in the blind spot on a Challenger,

I usually reply with snark dialed up about 50% asking if anyone had actually read the original message. And include detail about how it is not, in fact, "ok" The other day, I literally had trouble signing into a website... then I

Worth mentioning is that there are several email umbrellas under Microsoft... including the newer office/365, the slightly older outlook.com hosting, the old corp hosting and hotmail and sub-properties... each with different rules and

One that always irks me to no end, is every time I see someone ham fisting csv handling by hand instead of using an established, well-sourced library. They almost always fail at commas or newlines in quoted text... It's one of the mo

jmap is the communication between a mail client and shared directory/mail services on a server. It does not include server to server communications (that I am aware of) for sending mail to other users/servers.

I think a mail 2.0 would be notify and pull based.... you notify a recipient's mail server that there's a message from <address> for them, then that server connects to the MX of record for the domain of <address> and r

There's a little more to it than that... but what most people ascribe as "fascism" conflates with authoritarianism, which includes the political and economic structures the people talking or using the "F" word gener

Oh, so Microsoft can never, ever, possibly resurrect the product or even name of the product again? This is even more reason why it was probably a better place tp put features like a markdown editor.

I find it funny how many people think that Capitalism and Fascism are compatible or the same... completely disregarding the fact that Fascism is a form of Socialism borne out of the limitations of Communism.

It goes both ways with plenty of people on the left talking about "re-education" camps for conservatives around the 2020-2021 timeframe.

It's changed a LOT over the years though... it's just kind of glossed over at this point... the move to hooks and quasi-functional components was a massive paradigm shift, but most saw it as a raw improvement. I personally thin
