Soo, booting your computer from someone else's computer?

I mean we've had thin clients and PXE for ages?

How on earth can people stand using Windows full time? Everything I'm on a Microsoft product I feel claustrophobic!

Genau so ist es! Und was brauchen wir für eine funktionierende Infrastruktur? Genau: Arbeitskräfte! Und woher bekommen wir die? In meiner Branche gehen in den kommenden zehn Jahren 3x mehr Menschen in den Ruhestand als demografisch nachkommen. Ohne Einwanderung sind wir doch am ****$&#@

They can't!

As a teacher in luddite Germany: yes our smartboards still Run Windows Media Player + I need that bar visible so I'm able to stop the movie at the correct teachable scene.

(And before anyone suggests making a custom playlist with vlc and all those newfangled contraptions from around 2005: I don't even have admin rights to change the sound volume...)

Wenn du versuchst daran zu denken Nicht daran zu denken das du dumm bist Obwohl du nicht dumm bist Was hast du dann gedacht? Hä?-Hä!

You need to see the timecode somehow...

DDG has also gotten much worse since the introduction of AI features.

Soo... Bye Logitech, it was good while it lasted with you.

Well there's Kodi's Netflix interface, looks pretty alternative to me: https://github.com/CastagnaIT/plugin.video.netflix

There's always a way

If AMD was able to come to the bright side, so can Nvidia. There's still hope, ye faithful!

I'm daily commuting via train. There are USB chargers everywhere in the cars, so this is pretty significant. And don't tell me to buy another wireless gadget I have to charge before I go - or some USB buds that won't work with my other devices, since USB-C is just a plug, not a Standard.

Leider ist das Schreiben gerade für Senior:innen ein großes Problem. Das sollte nicht legal sein.

Wenn das jetzt noch andersrum ginger ... 🤩

DIESES!

For me the direct opposite is true. About two years ago Google stopped giving me any accurate results, feeding me a bunch of semi-related garbage instead. DuckDuckGo feels like the Google of old: results that actually (literally) contain the terms of the query and not much else. I'd hate using the internet without it.

Thanks for all the hard work going into this instance! You are fighting the good fight.

Duplicity (cli) with deja-dup (gui) has saved my sorry ass many times.

Actually in my country DuckDuckGo is the only reliable search engine left. Google started giving me a bunch of bogus results for very specific queries a couple of years ago. Sad that FF depends so much on Ma'Google.

It's actually worse! Last jan Microsoft bricked the entire fleet of laptops in my company with a borked generic driver update. It overwrote the sd reader's vendor driver blocking all storage access from working whatsoever. From one week to another more or less all devices refused to boot. They basically killed our entire company for half a week, until IT could walk people through efi-disabling the sd reader in every laptop (recent industrial models mind you) just because windows had pulled in the wrong driver. So... no - it's not great at all with automatic driver installation in windows ...

You know that abebooks is a subsidiary of Amazon, right? As is ZVAB in Europe. They really have the market by the reins.
