Windows2000 was my last. After having managed to work in IT and using Linux on my desktop, I started a new job last year which required me to use Windows11. I find it quite awkward.

Luckily WSL is a thing.

A late friend joined our IRC channel a few years ago. It was quite upsetting at first, before realising it was a member of his family starting up his computer.

RIP elf.

A healthy “fuck it, i don’t care” attitude goes a long way for me at least.

That, or “I don’t get paid enough to care, fuck em”

:-)

i find it remarkable that people still use it

I share your view as a swede. most people in the country do, i think

Cycling, mountain biking. Nature and me and myself. Everything else is just to support this habit.

“Started as”

Yeah, no. Yes Xenix was a thing but it would be incorrect to say that it ever was their main product.

I don’t think anyone has ever hinted on that NT has a unix code base except for some “borrowed” networking code from bsd.

Yep it’s pretty nifty. Been running it for a few years. Nothing too advanced, just for myself to keep contacts and calendar under my control.

pam authentication and behind nginx.

Yeah currently binging it on Netflix. Library intro.

Wow… why would HBO geoblock a fucking INTRO?

A letter in the alphabet.

And when everyone is doing it it’s much easier to do…

Rinse & repeat

Aruba faired ok, no? as did Nimble. Granted i’ve not had any HPE contact for a few years now.

Nice people

If it’s cool (as this is), then yes. It’s needed :-)

they should dump twitter!

None of the images in your post loads for me fyi using Voyager

One big technical reason for this was actually the file system. Back when phones came with various types of sd-card support, they only had a few gigs of storage. fat32 was enough and was supported everywhere. But fat32 had some file system limitations and when sd-card sizes grew over 4gb there were comparability issues since windows was limited to fat32 and ntfs. I can imagine the support hell when a user couldn’t mount the sd card containing photos on his or her computer.

curious, ransomware insurance or what’s the product?
