I hate the fact that if you want to change the case on a file in windows, you can’t just replace the offending letter. You have to change the name completely, then change it back with the correct casing. Then Windows will finally keep it.

Milk-V just keep churning these things out. I wonder what the RISC-V market looks like? I assume they’re targeting business application and not hobbyists? I’m very much ignorant, and have never seen an implementation using RISC-V anywhere.

I actually ordered a Mars just yesterday but I get the feeling, after initial intrigue, that it’ll be a curiosity that sits in the drawer until it eventually gets thrown away. Maybe it was a good thing Meles was sold out at the time of my order. haha

I don’t think it’s that simple for a business. Crypto is simultaneously an asset and an income once it is sold, but also not a traditionally defined accounting asset. Combine that with how slow the government has been to properly define crypto, I bet most businesses would rather just not have to deal with it. Last thing they’d want is the IRS coming after them for doing it wrong.

I always made the mistake of starting to edit videos, finish up, then looking up the video fps and matching the project type before output. Immediate crash.

maybe it is tax reasons? I know that for personal taxes you have to simply declare crypto earnings but business tax laws don’t really like grey areas.

64bit cut out 16bit compatibility. So I’m guessing the fear is that 128 would cut 32.

In the USA, if it is not explicitly written in your job description/contract that you are remote, yes. It also means you can’t apply for unemployment as you were terminated for refusal to perform work duties, even if you are working.

I was going to upgrade to a 6500XT to do some 1080 gaming but found out that I was on Gen3. AMD cheaped out and only put 4 lanes on the 6500XT, which meant not enough bandwidth. I don’t know how much of an outlier I am, as comparing which board has what generation is not easy.

Forgive my ignorance, but an apartment where the landlord is removed and people just pay building maintenance is… a condominium, no?

It was a long time ago, but I’m pretty sure I just put it in the windows Startup folder. It’s not installed as a service or anything.

Yup, I hate that Microsoft chat programs no longer give you the option of showing available whenever signed in. Has to force it’s own system of timeouts and away. So people will start emailing me thinking I’m away when I’m just waiting for a ping. Ended up installing Caffeine and having it press Shift so that the system will recognize that I’m actually alive and available.

You forgot the VPN service they install without consent.

This is actually a question I’d like some opinions on!

I have a ton of headless servers running Debian that I just replace the sources.list for an upgrade. I imagine things are much more complicated when switches like X11 to Wayland happen, so all desktop environments get a wipe/install instead… But maybe I’m just making a lot of work for myself doing that!

Any of them compatible with Winamp plugins? Because that’s my reason for sticking to the past.

It’s been too many years since I’ve dabbled in code licensing so I’m a bit in the dark as to what this implies, but if this results in a Linux fork that’s capable of running Winamp plugins…

I’m guessing ease of installation/use.

I just wish it had a better name. Anything You just makes my brain feel like it hiccup’d trying to reread the sentence parsing it a second time as a name.

I’m curious, the current flash drive you are using… does it allow paging files? I would figure flash media would be marked portable to the OS and not allow page files to be used.

As somebody who has had to set up smartcards, yes. It’s a linux system managing that. The end-user GUI stuff is all Windows though.

There’s a surprising amount of Linux in some hospitals… but people just don’t see it. Fetal Monitors? Probably Linux. User tracking and auditing software? Also Linux. Network downtime document viewer? Linux. Heck, the software that carts use to print sheets to the network printers is CUPS.

I would be so confused and so very angry at the end. I had a hard enough time working inside vim-tiny.
