I still don’t know how people manage to fray those things. I used my 2013 for 10 yrs and the cable is still like new. They’re built pretty well. However, I do appreciate that the new ones are just usbc cables that plug into the brick so you can swap the cable if it does start to wear. Or so you can use MagSafe cables on non-apple power supplies.

Why does NK hate the ocean so much? They keep launching rockets at it like it killed their dog or something. I can’t wait for the day the ocean retaliates against them.

I’m going to have to add this to my toolkit.

However:

As a fork of 32-bit MenuetOS back in 2004, KolibriOS has since followed its own course, sticking to the x86 codebase and requiring only a modest system with an i586-compatible CPU, 8 MB of RAM and VESA-compatible videocard.

Does anyone know of an i486-SX compatible at least semi-modern linux distro? I’ve got a 486 with a 5.25” and 3.5” drive and I really want to be able to image some of the 5.25” disks I have laying around before more bit rot occurs.

Anyone self host this? Especially in Kubernetes? Seems pretty interesting and it’s already containerized.

By “screen time” the article seems to assume the only thing they’re doing on their screens is social media. I had to check as if it was really just screens for more than 4hrs, that’s an interesting stat I hadn’t heard, but could make some sense. However, that’s not it. So doing things like content creation (drawing, writing, photography) reading or learning, aren’t counted in this study.

It’s a support question. It may cost $2k more for a Mac, but if it’s officially supported, auto patched, remote managed and they can prove it with security tools, force patching and restrict users, use standard well known tools for compliance and security monitoring/administration/etc, they will easily save thousands in corp licensing, training costs and legal costs. That $2k+ really becomes negligible.

MacOS. Systems doesn’t want to support Linux, and the only other option is windows 11. A few of my coworkers have Win11 with WSL and fight it every single day. They’re diehard windows people who have been seriously considering moving to MacOS for their next round of upgrades.

Please let them be directional, pointed down, lower output and on light waves easily filtered out for night sky viewing. Light pollution is getting worse and worse for no real benefit.

So you’re saying there IS a way!

Ergonomically, I’m not sure that’s better. Sure they don’t have weight on them that the headset would add, but being able to freely move your head without holding it against a stationary headset would be quite an improvement.

Absolutely, but he’s rich so it’s okay.
