Nobody has any reason to trust the United States no matter who is in charge, correct.
All things are possible through Christ!
Nobody has any reason to trust the United States no matter who is in charge, correct.
So in other words, I’m thinking of Linux
As opposed to news from the united states, which is certified good and true and democratic
On bad operating systems like Linux, yes. ;)
Completing the ethnic cleansing of the region is a long-standing goal and it isn’t yet complete.
Anyone else get free Ubuntu CDs shipped to their house? I think I had 7.10 (Gusty Gibbon) shipped to my house back in 2007.
Otherwise, Mandrake Linux was my first “good” distro. I first tried one called Lycoris which claimed to be an beginner’s distro with it’s own DE, and it was impressive how well it handled setting up a dual boot installation and at the time it was a revelation that I could use a computer without Windows. I didn’t begin preferring linux until I tried Mandrake with KDE 3, though.
It’s not as if they are holding themselves up as supporting Free Software philosophies (as opposed to Open Source), so where’s the pretense?
If somehow it ever makes strategic sense for them to stop making use of the open source model, yeah, they’ll stop. That doesn’t mean they were pretending.
Yeah, I have the special edition that will include all of the DLC (It was a promotional gift from AMD) and you would have to pay me to play any of it.
More of this game is not something I’m interested in!
I don’t think they’re pretending. Open source software is a valuable resource for basically all major tech companies, and a lot of it is driven by major tech companies. Some kind of combination of open source and proprietary software will always be a thing for them. This isn’t some major contradiction, they use either model based on the specific needs of the project.
This is why some think “Open Source” is too permissive since they see it as free/cheap labor to be exploited by huge corporations.
I’m not sure that I see it that way, but I can see their point.
Almost 30 years and still basically useless.
The last time I tried that getting google play services working was a long, annoying process and did not work. I don’t expect google to make any of that easy for us.

I’d stick with Windows in your case. No shame in using what works. I had a laptop with hybrid Nvidia graphics and never could get it working satisfactorily with Linux.
Framework laptops are undeniably expensive. I say that as a happy owner of both the 13 and the 16. The value is not the appeal. To be honest, I don’t even expect it to “pay for itself due to upgradability and repairability” like many people say.
More availability of refurbished mainboards should help over time, I guess.
As long as there are people who want to make games there will be indy game development going on.
People always say this, but the execs and board members making obscene money for doing as little a possible is the whole point of the endeavor.
I’m a good enough software engineer that this isn’t true. I bet I get paid a lot more than you. 😎
(The above statement is not a truthful statement.)
The bigger deal is that development by this team has been halted, not that it will be a little harder to find a trustworthy download of the most recent version.
Isn’t following the local law the end user’s responsibility? Like how in the US it’s not lawful for me to install and use certain patented codecs without buying a license. (We all do, anyway.) Would it be “illegal software” or would it just make it easier for the end user to violate the law?
You’ve lost me on this one. No idea what you mean. But either way, I think you should take my comment just a bit less seriously.
