You’re not wrong but I don’t see what that has to do with my point, which was - don’t blame distros for this. They can influence the conversation but not control it. If you find what you want isn’t supported then pick something that supports most things like Ubuntu, or Nobara.

Driver support is down to the manufacturer. Distros can’t give you things that don’t exist.

North Atlantic accent I think it’s called. Have a read of the wiki. Kinda interesting.

Depends on how fast I’m talking but, yup. South islanders do it more than north ime.

I know when I pronounce it, it’s different on the a/e - NZ English.

Most have KERS. This is what it is. My brake lights go on when it hits a certain % of KERS full effect.

It’s like that everywhere. The US is not an outlier. You need quality education systems in place as well or you can’t educate your future medical professionals. This is how democracy dies. Undereducated sickly populace will vote for whoever comes off the top rope with the funniest/angriest shit. We were sunk as soon as education funding cuts began worldwide. Early 90s in my country, probably similar elsewhere.

You can go back to Counterstrike for that. Was a free mod for half life, then one day you needed Steam to play it. It’s how Steam was released and part of why there was such massive uptake early. Biggest game in the world at the time.

Those were the days. I never thought installing mp3 player software would give me a rootkit, but it did……

OP, listen to this person. Docker will earn you cash. Podman is nicer to work with for your own shit.

Startup scripts most likely. A sign of a bunch of legacy tech in your environment.

I’m not the person you replied to but I’ve been a first person shooter fan since Wolfenstein 3D and original doom. I had NEVER heard of it til today. First person and tower defense games are basically all I play.

You’re usually stuck with what your seedbox provider gives you.

Since the 90s for a lot of it…

No. Plenty of places pay devs well. Top end jobs are mostly in the US. There are plenty of well paying jobs elsewhere.

You can issue queries, import and transform the data on demand.

Until it has an odbc connection to a sql server or access db it’s still low level wizardry.

We had edited photos for decades. There’s no difference in the effect.

And yes, people have been working on AI in earnest since the 80s, just wasn’t in the public space.

Plenty of regular folks calling for this for decades and only once someone far enough up the money tree gets hurt do they do something. Frankly disgusting.

Online I see this sort of rage bait all the time. In the real world everyone I talk to thinks there’s arseholes and good people in every age group. Stop feeding the media’s narratives. It’s what made reddit shit and it will ruin Lemmy too if we let it. Downvote it, move on. Too many bots and social media entities use it drive traffic and influence the online conversation that eventually ends up influencing the real world.
