As opposed to Hamas’ plan which is the complete destruction of Israel and all its people

No. This whole push feels astroturfed.

I manage about three dozen PCs, it’s only like 5% of my job. I’m starting to move some of them to a Linux Mint Cinnamon distro but it doesn’t work for all of my use cases. Even at home, I have a lot of really niche software solutions for things I do and games I like that aren’t supported yet on Linux. I honestly don’t know what I’ll do when Win10 support ends, my PC is pretty decent, I’m nowhere near ready to replace it. I play new games at 1440p/144fps at nax settings with very few frame drops.

Just wait until 2031 when they end support for Windows 11 and require you to have an 18th Gen CPU to run Windows 12.

Yeah they were right about shit like heroin and meth, I knew enough people who threw their lives away to that shit. But my stoner friends were successful and chill. It’s the only drug I care for. I know about benefits of psychedelics but it isn’t for me.

I topped my school’s record score on those tests. I haven’t been able to afford to go to the dentist in more than 20 years. I wish they would have focused on making our society sustainable instead.

When Germans start feeling power, the world buys more weapons and ammunition.

I’m working on phasing out windows in my office as much as I can entirely because of the end of win10 and the dumb requirements of windows 11. I’m still running it on my main home PC though because I’m insanely busy and like to game for like 5-10 hours a week and and want to spend zero hours getting games to run. If I buy a game on steam and it doesn’t work I instantly I refund it even if I could probably figure it out.

I’m already starting to migrate my small office. Two PCs done, a handful of others to go. I have probably three that I’ll run Windows 11 for software compatibility, and another three Mac’s for different software.

Who remembers “Windows 10 will be our last operating system’?” I remember. Fuck Microsoft. Fuck Macs too though.

Weeks is decades in Internet time.

I have a Cincinnati address but I’m in Clermont county just outside of Anderson, in the 45255 zip. There aren’t buses near my house, or sidewalks, or bike lanes. Just a ditch on the side of the road and 40+mph traffic with lots of construction trucks.

I’ve lived in the NL, we just have a different reality. Just the other side of my city is an hour away in a car with no traffic. Regional cities are 1.5-3 hrs away. There are some bus lines in the middle of the city but most of our metro area has zero non-car options.

Okay you’re not wrong about most people. I saw a post in a couch to 5k thread recently about getting to running 14 minute miles. I can walk 13 minute miles. But the I-275 loop that circles Cincinnati is almost 90 miles around. The streetcar covering less than two miles of the city is still not helping the common person.

The Cincinnati streetcar cost almost exactly $150m and it serves like 0.5% of the metro population. It runs a 3.6 mile loop, that’s just over a 1.5 mile walk from one end to the other. I can walk it in 20 minutes.

Don’t get me wrong, I agree with the sentiment of the post. We need to invest in public transit. Where I live there are zero non-car options. But don’t pretend you’re building comprehensive public transit for $150m.

Just learning from the US.
