smileyhead, to linux in But Windows 11 is so good!!11!1!

As far as you are aware. Only author knows what code is in it.

It’s basically like giving computer to a random guy on the street for a day as he promise to disable Windows update for you. Maybe he do it, maybe not, for you it worked, would it work for me? Will there be anything additional in the background running after, I don’t know.

Just use some unknown program in binary form downloaded from random site that require adminstration access and God knows what it does, because Windows don’t have an option or config file to change simple thing👌.

I don’t get it…

smileyhead, to linux in New Fedora Slimbook 14" joins the Fedora Slimbook 16" - Fedora Magazine

I just have new Tuxedo InfinityBook Pro 14 gen 8, same display but i7-13700H and 99Wh batt. The battery is like 8+ hours normal office work.

Just as I bought it they announced new Pulse 14 with 60Wh battery, but that seems more energy efficient components, I wonder how good it would perform.

smileyhead, to linux in Amazon Building its Own Linux-Based OS to Replace Android

Another not-Linux Linux based operating system. Can’t wait to argue same as with Android and ChromeOS that this is not like “real” desktop Linux looks.

We really should stick to calling it GNU or something.

smileyhead, to linux in Imagine Linux on an Arm SoC that benchmark better than Apple's M2 Max!

Hardware continuity, what do you mean?

I liked old look more. Would prefer to add even more preinstalled icons instead.

smileyhead, to linux in What devices run with free firmware?

But it’s a closed device with the firmware not being for user to replace.

While BIOS can be updated without opening the computer. Or many WiFi cards require you to load a firmware on them upon boot.

So firmware in the disk is more of a right-to-repair problem rather than free/nonfree software

smileyhead, to linux in Are older, but Linux compatible computers capable of running the newest kernel/version of various distros?

Linux kernel is really good at backwards compatibility, better than any other OS.

Software can be bad at being backwards compatible with older kernels, but you should be able to run newer ones.

May I ask the opposite? Why use JavaScript client from the web instead of desktop ones?

Most operating systems, excluding Windows, are shipping with decent native and fast email client. They are automatically updated with the system, again excluding Windows, integrate with other apps (for ex. right-click and share with mail), can store messages offline just in case and are overall nicer to use.

The only use case I think of is when using someone’s else computer and you don’t want to remember to log out, because browsers have “incognito” mode.
