Is Linux (dumb)user friendly yet?
  • My dad is a complete tech noob. I took his laptop, installed Ubuntu, configured everything and showed him where he could find the applications he uses. Done.

    Tja
  • Ich würde erstmal davon ausgehen, dass das nur dazu führt, dass weniger Fahrer das Rechtsfahrgebot beachten und mehr unnötig schnell auf den linken Spuren unterwegs sind. Effizient geht jedenfalls anders.

  • Currently after work: Sitting outside with a drink of my choice, reading Neuromancer. Shit calms me down.

    2024: The Year Linux Dethrones Windows on the Desktop – Are You Ready?
  • You know what gets ppl to use Linux? 100% Software compatibility out of the box and OEM who preinstall Linux distros.

    Barely anyone outside the bubble oft techies and enthusiasts cares. You have to BRING it to the users. For most oft them comfort is king after all.

    What's a good budget home server?
  • Honestly, when it comes to your specified amount of Cores & RAM you'll have tough luck. Got myself a MiniPC with 5700U and 32GB of RAM, two 1TB SSDs (mirrored) and 3 NIC but that was still 500€ after waiting for a decent deal.

    Even buying a used PC off eBay will most likely cost far more if you insist on your specs.

    SD cards finally expected to hit 4TB in 2025
  • Maybe I'm a bit too paranoid but personally I wouldn't trust SD card memory enough to store 4TB before moving the data to another medium.

    Wire management.
  • I do this, too on my hobby projects. Back when Twitter was still usable one post like this (only pictures) suddenly had 14k interactions. Until then I didn't even realize people can be into wire management.

    European car safety body is coming for touchscreens. The European New Car Assessment Programme mandates that key controls need physical buttons or switches
  • I only have a touch screen for entertainment and configuration and still notice how distracted I get when I have to use it. No haptic feedback and multilayered menus are just a bad idea while driving.
