Maybe real estate?

I tried to get this up and running back on my K6-2, unfortunately I couldn’t work out how to get the X server running with my 3Dlabs FireGL Pro card at the time.

When you’re voting in a one-party system with two right wings, nothing changing is the expected outsome.

This. People exercised their consciences.

Yep. My paycheck has sadly not scaled in a similar manner :(

Will I even be able to afford one? Still rocking a Radeon VII here…

I can’t even find a decent PCIE USB/Thunderbolt card (one that support VFIO would be nice and actually has a Linux kernel driver, so ASM and Renesas are both out…)

I believe it’s a little more sinister than that. There is less education around these issues because many services have adopted a highly polished, “Walled-Garden” approach to their presentation. This keeps people who’ve grown up with the concepts in their walled garden loyal to that specific service, and makes it difficult for people to dig under the hood and work out how things really function without the sugar coating. They get irritated quickly because they’re used to everything “Just working” and don’t have experience on more open systems.

Therefore, they would like there to be no need for tech education unless you plan on a professional career as a tech.

As long as ownserhip don’t get carried away with enshittification chasing next quarter’s finance call and drive users away by annoying them into putting the extra effort in to learning about alternatives, they could keep it that way forever.

There’s also the term Xennials , which is 1977-1983.

It appears to have ceased development. AFAIK it still works if hooked into a “valid” user account, but since I don’t have one and am increasingly less likely to consider that path, it’s a moot point.

At least we have Bitwig for music production now (if you can work out how to use it… I still haven’t had the time :-/ )

Ever since Nitter died I haven’t paid any attention to anything on musks’ little fiefdom at all.

I wish the political economics guys would move… I really miss Tim Sahay/70sbachchan & Mark Blyth.

A Reichtangle, obviously.

That dude should not have put up with that.

80% of our machines were hit. We were working through 9pm on Friday night running around putting in bitlocker keys and running the fix. Our organization made it worse by hiding the bitlocker keys from local administrators.

Also gotta say… way the boot sequence works, combined with the nonsense with raid/nvme drivers on some machines really made it painful.

Really wish we’d get some nice, fast RISC-V base boards with a nice amount of flash memory paired with a cool round LCD display…keep patrolling CNX for the parts but they don’t seem to be quite there yet.

Yeah, kinda funny how it’s OK when there’s a bunch of neoliberal gangsters like larry summers behind it, right?

Well, except scumbags like eric adams, NYC’s bought-owned-and-operated-by-real-estate-interests mayor.
