And where in the headline is "AI"?

by wobfan 8mo ago
And in your mind NOW always means "since GenAI is a thing"? Most of the time, when people realize something, it happens NOW. Also, AI isn't even mentioned in the headline at all, and not even in the first part of the article.

I love how, on the "I am retiring page", the image of the old woman even has artifacts of the Gemini logo on the bottom right - someone very probably manually tried to blur them with a tool that was not meant for blurring. Somehow

To be fair, I think people are vastly over estimating the work they would have and the power they would need. Yes, if you have to massively scale up, then it'll take some work, but most of it is one-time work. You do it, and when it ru

The fact that so many people are discussing their terminal just confirms the fact that a terminal is incredibly basic.

The article is not about UNIX, what's good and bad, but what's better for understanding Linux. And replacing SysVInit with systemd is, objectively, bad for understand the core of Linux. And this is the core of LFS. Discussing whet

While you're right, they also went out of their way to prevent competent users from using local accounts and/or not upload their BitLocker keys. I could understand if the default is an online account + automatic key upload, but on

But Windows is made for the big masses. It's definitely a good thing that Microsoft forces Auto-Updates, because otherwise 95% of people would run around with devices that have gaping security holes. And 90% of these people are not bei

Also, they haven't cared about Windows 11 consumer sales for decades. It's not a coincidence that it's easier to crack Windows 11 than it was to crack Windows XP.

AFAIK Windows 11 IoT, which is intended for exactly these kinds of environments, can be activated via phone and LAN without internet. Microsoft isn't abandoning these markets. They've been min-maxing consumer software enshittifica

Is this actually such a big point? I feel like (subjectively) on Ubuntu everything gets updated just as fast, and even if not, there's a new full release every 6 months. Or is this actually rather slow in comparison to Feroda? I'v

To be fair, the macOS Safari is not tied to the OS. Don't remember if it ever was, but it def isn't anymore then.

You're comparing apples to oranges. Switching the ecosystem from something like Shopify to some other shop software requires a lot of manual work, and some of the stuff won't even be transferable 1:1. Fixing some issue with your W

Because it's wrong. AI doesn't save any CO2 or hours. > AI helps in productivity in many places so it is definitely a fair point. The productivity per hours might be higher, but the CO2 per hours is also higher, per definition.

I mean they need the resources to switch from native, to UWP, to web, and then start over again in 2 years. How do you think should they manage to fix such a unnecessary thing like search in the meantime? But fear not! As we learnt from Mic
