  • I don’t think this is it. Many Linux users who evangelize were Windows users once, they have a pretty good understanding of the context and the challenges that exist in that migration for both them and less tech-savy others.

    Inching closer snd closer to the Year of the Linux Desktop, to the point where Windows-focused media like LTT started talking about it, didn’t happen because people said “both are good”.

    It’s like politics, change for the better in a capatilist system happens with noise.

    I’m a huge FOSS advocate and recommend Linux over Windows. I understand the challenges it repsents for users in a work environment. And those users will get Windows, for now, but they will continue to hear about its problems and the benefits of Linux whenever they ask me or complain. Because that’s what opens the doors, even if it’s annoying in the moment.

    Just like politics, repetition of the problems they are making worse, repetition, and more repetition, until the ignorant learn the better path forward.




  • You must be man. 😀

    Me too, but I also sew, so: Different types of clothing fit women differently based on size. And I don’t mean body shape fit just being slightly different. A “small shirt” can have a million different lengths which could reveal midriff based on bust or Shoulder size. This is impacted by curves but is a total dofferent measurement. And this can happen with any gender, but statistically more so for women.

    And wait until you realize that people are sized different in different countries other than America.

    The best solution would be to remove sizes altogether and create a standardized measurements sheet that is required to be included on clothing sites or tags. Or at least an international standard. It’s done in engineering, why not in textiles?

    Yea, I realized how quick a Ryzen 5825u is at 15w. Just loaded 2 with 2x 1TB drives and 64GB RAM. Will be running mail server/DNS/VPN/Samba AD replicated across them, plus a bunch of other single services.

    Happy to keep you posted as I go. I’ll probably end up de-casing them in a 10" rack.
