I no longer work with corporations, but an online ornithology classI did used teams. It worked, mostly, for a while. Then one day it decided that video would no longer work on my machine. Of course there’s no obvious log or anything.

I even booted windows to see if it would fix it, but no.

That was on a very exotic yoga 7 pro laptop.

It’s the only piece of software that’s ever behaved that way.

The author described 40cm of rain, which was unusual to me, since we normally describe the rain in millimetres

That’s the point of sensible units. It’s exactly the same thing.

You wouldn’t download a migrant.

Same. I’m just making a Truenas server next year when setting up the new network. It’s probably cheaper anyway.

But still no AI in the calculator. Why is that Microsoft?

After using python, I’m of the opinion that perl was much cleaner.

It’s a start. Keep at it.

It’s pertinent if you only need something for a short time, or if you want to test something before committing to buying it.

Otherwise, there’s few cases where renting makes sense.

Also it takes five minutes to walk to the voting office from my home, on the voting Sunday.

Besides, Plasma can look like anything else anyway, so why switch?

I could see this as an interesting lab concept. That possibly users could install from some kind of site if they really wanted it. Not as a mainstream function pushed to evry system. Even if it’s inactive by default for now.

I suppose that the solar panels are in a field somewhere. It’s much more efficient.

Can I give them 50 dollars and not have to use windows at all?

There is enough sofware that does not work

What Linux software doesn’t work?

The Lords of Arch will let you know when they deem you worthy.

Well, I said it was stable for a Microsoft system.

I understand that it’s strange to people used to windows, but we had computers that just didn’t crash. Ever. Then everything moved to PC with windows and it all went to shit. Now it’s mostly back to unix which while not crashproof is at least reasonably resilient and a proper system.

How many deer are on that road? It’s mowing down dozens of them in that video!

It seems to me that Windows, which used to be reasonably stable (say, between XP and 10), as Microsoft systems go, has gone into beta status with Windows 11 and is now slipping into a kind of perpetual alpha.

Disclaimer, I haven’t used Windows seriously for decades (now and then for the odd game or for VR) and only boot it every other month to see what it looks like.

I’m glad I don’t have to go through this shit

I’ve thought that so many times seeing people’s children around me.

I agree that many recipes are poorly written. Especially non professional stuff from the web.

Still, I’d hate to prepare anything without having weighed all my ingredients beforehand.
