I used Edge since the beginning, until they decided to fill it with bloat. It's getting worse than Chrome. Now I'm using Firefox that is still a browser instead of an application trying to replace all applications.

Laser printers don't burn the paper. They require toners. So it wasn't a joke unless they also didn't know how a laser printer works.

Isn't this being a good neighbour?

On the other hand, if you buy something, check what you're buying. Don't complain if you don't even know what you're buying.

No it doesn't. But money does allow them to keep going...

Yeah, by everyone that buys meat. It's simple. If we all stop buying it now they're gonna run out and stop producing meat. The meat you buy today pays the meat that enters the store later.

And the store pays the supplier, the supplier pays the farm, and everything in between. Not sure if you're being serious.

That's because it is a perfectly viable consumer os. At least the distros are, Linux is just the kernel. What makes a distro an industrial os? I wouldn't use Arch for industrial purposes. So no, I won't accept that I use an industrial os, because it isn't.

Debian does use systemd, but what's so bad about it? I'm just curious, I'm using Arch with KDE, and that also uses systemd. Never had any issues with it. Debian doesn't use snap by default though.

I hope they'll ever fix the backspace issue for the on screen keyboard.

It's a great distro to learn a lot about Linux. I challenged myself to install it on my Surface Go 2, and make it usable as a tablet, as well as make it boot with secure boot and more. Now it's happily running Arch with KDE, using the linux-surface kernel signed with my own secure boot key and a pacman hook that signs that kernel after every update. I learned all of this acompanied by a lot of fuckups and reinstalls, until I was able to fix things after breaking them instead of starting from scratch.

Not neccessarily wrong, but you could also check the first bit. If it's 1 the number is uneven, if it's 0 the number is even. That seems to be more efficient.

That's probably because you're not using Spotify. I've been using Spotify using the family subscription of a friend of mine, and the recommendations are pretty good. Still not as good as they were on Apple Music, but hey, it's free for me.

They get paid twice anyway, if you buy cartridges from HP. This is just a subscription for those cartridges.

My bad, I looked over the returns. If you return something there wouldn't be much difference between both.

If you don't use a semicolon directly in MySQL it won't do anything until you add it.

Exactly, most, if not all, os's do this.

Ram usage is really nothing to worry about depending on the amount you have. Windows will free ram where needed as long as there is enough. If ram is not being used by applications it will be used for other things (it will be cached I believe?). If almost no ram is being used it means some things might take longer to load.

Windows on my Surface Go 2 used about 3-4GB of ram when idle, while on my work laptop with 64GB ram it uses about 10-12GB. But if necessary applications can use some of that ram that's normally being used in idle.

I do agree about Linux distros being faster, that's my experience as well.

I seem to remember that Carbon also doesn't need Origin, or am I wrong? I also think that it was awesome.

Same here, the only downside is that I'm having issues with some thumbnails that don't show. For example for the Cox 'n Crendor Show I had to find a soundcloud rss link for Antennapod to show the image. It didn't work when I subscribed to that podcast from within the app.

I barely have to use the commandline, that's more for power users. And that's on Arch (after configuring everything the way I want). On distros like Mint it's not even necessary after a fresh install. I used to help people with their pc, and to my surprise I came across Linux Mint multiple times, at older people no less.

But they have to be able to see something 20km ahead!

That could also be the case.

And with wat money? Your money and everyone else's that buys meat. Not that it matters though, I'll keep eating my meat.

No, I won't stop buying meat, it's delicious.

In the Netherlands as well, as well as when you buy stuff at a store. There's always a small fee when you use a debit or credit card.

It will check all of the if statements instead of stopping at the first match.

It's relevant because it's there. If you don't play those parts it doesn't mean it's there. They put the time in other things more important to the game than transitions. Also, the engine is completely different.
