New ones probably use something newer. The 20 year old elevator in a hospital will only be upgraded if something breaks.

We are far away from the release of the Raspberry Pi if that screen is running an early version of Windows CE. Putting a PC in the elevator to drive the screen was probably the most cost effective solution.

Yes? That is not that unusual and it is mentioned in the third sentence of the article.

As I rode up to the 14th floor, my eyes were drawn to a screen built into the side of the lift.

It's probably only the screen component that is running an old version of embedded windows.

I really like it as well. I did three major version upgrades so far and they have been flawless. I also really like Flatpak, finally a way of easily installing something on Linux without breaking half of the system because the application you wanted to install uses libfoo 2.0 and not libfoo 1.9.9-patch-1337. With my atomic desktop applications that worked yesterday also work today. Things don't randomly break all the time.

The future of Fedora Atomic also looks exciting; Timothée Ravier is working on sysexts which are a way of installing applications without ostree layering. I could remove most of my ostree layered packages with that.

Garmin is currently in the process of enshittifing their products as well.

We use OpenProject at my job and its pretty good. You can use Nextcloud as a document repository and integrate it with OpenProject.

Its Lunduke, a self-proclaimed a-political tech journalist. You can pretty much disregard anything that spews from his mouth.

I think even a relaunch with only the first campaign at the start could revitalize the community. I'd wager there are plenty of people who would want to relive the glory days of Guild Wars 1.

There seems to be a market for classic mmorpgs. I wonder why Guild Wars didn't already receive the Wow Classic treatment.

There is the unfortunately abandoned MorroUI.
