For companies to cause problems they have to buy so many homes they can abuse their market share by forcing rents up

Not necessarily. Your logic only applies to non-necessities. For a necessity, all you need is to own enough of the industry, that you’re the only option for some people. If there only exists enough housing to just barely house everyone who needs a home, then you could own only 1%, and set the price to whatever you want, because someone will have to live there. Everywhere else is occupied.

which you would see as an increasing vacancy rate

No, you wouldn’t. There is no rent that is so high people will decide to live on the street. They’ll keep paying, until they actually can’t.

Again, this logic only applies to non-necessities. If you hike the price of food, people don’t stop eating. They stop bying luxury goods.

And no, if there isn’t an overabundance of food (as you yourself admit, housing is insufficient) they can’t just switch to the competition, because the competition does not have the capacity to serve everyone.

New omegamart product line?

I don’t power it off.

Then again I only let it sleep a couple hours at a time at most, since I know I’m using it again soon. It’s not like you lose half the battery by doing that, and the whole point of the fast suspend and resume is so you can stop and go while on the go.

If I’m leaving it overnight, then I power off.

Indeed.

I’m not saying there aren’t NASes that do this. Unfortunately, there absolutely are.

No sane NAS should work that way.

Unless you have a giant raid array, where you need all the drives running at the same time on the same system, plugging in a single raid 1 member, for example, via usb to sata adapter, should let you access its contents just fine.

Provided you’re on an OS that can read the file system. That can require some extra effort on windows.

But yeah. Beware of the pre-built NASes. The vendor lock-in is real.

Are you sure?

I feel like the progression implies that he stopped wearing it.

Framework 16?

Definitely something to consider in terms of longevity. User replacable RAM, storage, and battery.

And they’ve now successfully done the first mainboard and gpu refresh.

Linux would not be pre-installed, but it can be purchased without windows.

We’ll have to wait and see.

They aren’t shutting down, they’re parting with Paradox, and hence the Cities IP.

It’s possible this will set them free to pursue something that’ll allow that passion to shine through even brighter.

It seems your point is to shit on KDE, in contrast to MacOS. But since you don’t actually know the current state of either, you’re just making a fool of yourself.

Good day.

And has been the MacOS way for a while now, too.

What was your point, again?

It is.

That MacOS doesn’t display the scrollbar except while scrolling, does not reduce the height of the total list.

Both have search fields for good reason.

Don’t be difficult.

You really cannot argue that the layout, and hence how people would actually navigate it is not “about the same”. Your words.

To bring up a cosmetic difference is a nitpick. It’s the breeze theme, with a personal color scheme on top, not something explicitly made to look like MacOS. Which it could be.

You really haven’t checked lately, then.

The video has been recorded, but is not out yet. Linus talked about it on the latest WAN show and on social media.

They collabed.

I don’t think Trump is familiar with shame. Even as a concept.

KDE can be set up such that a ex-mac-user barely has to re-learn anything.

The difference is that while gnome looks a lot like MacOS, it isn’t exactly like it in terms of layout. An ex-mac-user will look for certain things in certain places, and won’t always find them. (such as power off/restart being up in the left corner)

Meanwhile, the customizability of the KDE desktop means you can manually put the same things in the same places as on MacOS. You can put a krunner search button in the same spot as the spotlight search button. You can make a panel that behaves like the dock, floating and shrinking to fit the number of icons in it. You can have a top panel with a power menu on the left end, and you can display a global menu to the right of it. Even the krunner keybind is the same, and spotlight people tend to pickup krunner like nothing.

Finally, the KDE settings application seems to be the most similar to the modern MacOS settings application.

The big caveat being that the user will need someone who can instruct them with setting this up, or who can set it up for them.

Gnome is closer out of the box.

But you can make KDE work almost exactly like macOS. The top bar context menu, power menu, bottom dock, left-hand window buttons, etc.

It just involves changing a bunch of settings.

You can also just hook your phone up via usb and enable usb tethering, allowing the PC to use wifi or mobile broadband via the phone.

Saw this a while ago via Mick Gordon.

So glad to see him get work, and also with a game that seems promising.
