We all also need to return to the office, no way the last 6 years of productivity proved anything about your ability to work.

Idk, $100 or so for 8th gen Intel isn’t too bad, but this is in the us

I agree and its annoying that we have to uwe multiple services even if they are all owned by a few companies.

A used laptop with a messed up screen will work as well.

Sucks, but I did spend close to a year on the various platforms till I found someone.

I typically had double types on my first gen pre and had to add tape to the battery to keep it in place, but the pre2 was awesome. I also can the custom kernels to try different schedulers. Good times

I miss the promise of WebOS and the palm Pre series. The 2 and 3 were in the right direction, and then HP 🔥

Of your options, I not go with BMW as they are pushing subscriptions based features. In my new car journey I may settle on a low millage model 3 if I can get it with the lithium pack.

On my pixel 7, i see it listed as beta, but not sure how to disable. Can only remove updates.

I tired to use zorin recently, but went back home to bazzite. Zorin felt like a skin on Ubuntu and didn’t give me the warm fuzzies inside. I’m sure its fine, but not for me 🙂.

Makemkv works as well

This is the way.

I wish all the money poured into AI instead went into mass transit.

Quark publishing

Agreed

I agree. On a new machine I’ve been using I tried Ubuntu and then Zorin, but Bazzite just works better. Could be the Fedora base that’s helping a lot, idk. But switching that machine over when I’m not lazy.

I just got a mouse for my SNES and it’s great watching people play Mario Paint for the first time.

I think older versions of office work under wine. I think the 2020 versions… I forget

I find 8th gen i5 and i7 laptops under 200 all over eBay. Hard to beat.
