  Yeah I just bought a decent used 11th gen i7 laptop for under $200 and put kubuntu on it screams.

  OK but still good

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 10 LTSC – the version that won't expire for years⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Even smaller then

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 10 LTSC – the version that won't expire for years⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Specifically on what they say:

  techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/…/293181

  They intend it for stuff that really is specialty systems or single apps, like ATMs or stuff that drive CAT scans. Not geberal-purpose systems.

  Doesn’t mean it won’t work for a whole lot of other people, though.

  I’ve certainly had games stop working with older drivers. Older games, even.

  But maybe.

  Personally I just moved to Linux with Proton, but is not for everyone.

  Did you attempt to look it up?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 10 LTSC – the version that won't expire for years⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Small price to pay

  No

  Why?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Synology restricts choice of hard disks for new Plus NAS⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you have external access to the drives with the TrueNAE or are they internal?

  “Flood” = 1 per day.

  Some people just want to bitch about everything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tesla Slumps Below 50% Share of California's Electric Car Market⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re already selling at virtually no markup. They’re also old, very mature production lines. There’s not much more price drop to be had, unless Tesla starts selling them at a loss.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tesla Slumps Below 50% Share of California's Electric Car Market⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, less than 50% will, maybe. Still a lot of people buying shitty cars apparently.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tesla Slumps Below 50% Share of California's Electric Car Market⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you asking if Rivian is the only company besides Tesla selling electric cars in the US?

  No, nearly all major manufacturers sell EVs. Something like 25 brands.

  I just edited it to fix a typo

  I hope you know them all, man

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨British soldiers tune radio waves to fry drone swarms for pennies⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it was just emohasizing that it’s an invisible weapon, not quantifying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Light switches should be glow in the dark⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Or paint or a bunch of things.

  Problem of course is that this tends to stop glowing after an hour or two.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Light switches should be glow in the dark⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They read that part. They replied to it.

  But also no it doesn’t.
