So like systemd but ten times more dramatic.
Now you see why Romulans ended up a recurring villain… very strong start. Compare that to how long they took to bring back the Gorn!
Does Valve ship a usable desktop distro?
What’s crazy to me is that Linux was out way in front of this. Put me in front of windows back in the aughts and say ‘go install a program’ and you had to google it, hope you clicked the right download link, install it, hope you didn’t get a virus. Ubuntu you just opened up synaptic and bam, there was a wealth of programs you could just install with a single click. It was mind-blowing, and way easier than what everyone else offered.
Baby Duck syndrome is real, and probably the reason I’m using Lubuntu; it superficially resembles the OSs I grew up using (Win9x/OS9/WinXP.) Windows, MacOS, Gnome, and Mate on the other hand relentlessly change their interfaces.
I still don’t understand why IA picked a fight with publishers with the emergency library.
IA provides a really valuable service and they’re an incredibly juicy target. Going on anti-copyright crusades isn’t their mission.
MacOS was just about as jank as Windows 9x by my recollection.
The screen was nice, the USB support was nice. I didn’t hate the keyboard, though I was used to an IBM Model M so I hammered those keys…
It’s what I use for my home server and it’s great. You can even use VLC to stream music and stuff via samba.
Reason. It’s got a unique workflow that is hard to break from. I even tried Renoise, but it’s hard to switch.
Ambrosia Software published a bunch of Mac games back in the day, but the app store crunched them.
Marathon was a mac exclusive. Will the new Marathon ship on mac at all?
For the tower defense enthusiast.
Did it look cool? Yeah it looked awesome. But was it ever going to be sustainable, budget-wise?
If students hide their phones instead of being distracted by them, isn’t that mission accomplished?
Lubuntu my beloved. Ubuntu enough for me to google myself out of anything but lightweight enough to make me feel good about what I’m spending cycles/battery on… and familiar enough that I don’t need to learn a whole new desktop paradigm when all I’m gonna do with the desktop gui is start an app anyway.
Desktop search is notoriously hard. For all nontrivial searching tasks on Mac and Linux I use fzf for filenames and ack for full text search.
x86box, Flashpoint Archive, Ruffle, and other tools to sustain the usefulness of the golden age of computing well into the future.
Came here to post Tech Won’t Save Us.
Never heard of the company or the system, is this any good? I tried running off brand trek with SWN before and it went ok, but I’d love a system for running specifically trek themed adventures… A solo system is great too, since I only have one player besides myself!
The nice thing about Samba is that you can find clients for everything.
