People forgetting that when you ran out of lives you used to have to go back to the start of the whole game.

We remember. It was bullshit back then. It's still bullshit now.

Edit: I beat those games on three lives. It was still some bullshit.

I can accept stupid decisions. I don't have to respect them.

If I recall correctly, it has been released for moile on and off as experimental builds. Last time I grabbed an APK, it wasn't ready (as an editor - as a document reader it works fine).

Put any person who has zero computer experience in front of a windows computer or Linux computer and I doubt they would say the windows computer just works and the Linux one doesn't.

I did this experiment on my own kids. They find Linux more usable, and find it hard to believe people tolerate Windows.

There's also some indoctrination involved.

But they have access to both, and they prefer Linux. I think that the "Windows is genuinely easier" argument doesn't hold any water anymore.

Sure, but it's not quite the compelling argument it used to be.

Today, I'm not sitting here pining for old Linux software that stopped working. And the small amount of old windows software that did finally stop working actually works now only works on Linux with Wine.

That's another of the decision points that finally switched to fully favoring Linux, for me, in the last decade.

There is such a law, but many of us feel that Microsoft has proven malice a few times, when it comes to open standards.

Linux Mint is so nice.

I would turn off "Secure Boot" in BIOS before doing the upgrade.

It officially works, but can throw in unnecessary challenges - and Mom probably isn't traveling with national secrets next week anyway.

We can take action. We can grab the die that Joel McHale has tossed into the air.

I'll wait and see if they can add some AI to it. But if they can, I'll invest my entire life savings.

I see you subscribe to the Wolfwood school of pacifism: "I didn't kill anyone!"

Yes. That's what AI actually adds - plausible deniability.

My partner and I used to use location sharing pretty much 100% of the time. We just felt better knowing we could find each other.

But today, we do not, because the trust is shattered.

Google just cannot be trusted with our locations.
