Probably even worse than that.

This has less RAM, but it's the same CPU. You can see it's consistently 3 to 4 times slower than a Raspberry Pi 4! They are not joking about this not being for general use.

A Dev board like this is pretty cool, though. It could help pave the way to a performant board later.

Good god it fucking sucks and who does it even convince but the already libbed up zionist (who is probably halfway to abandoning american liberalism to begin with, and not in the good way)

What Mr. Tyson doesn't understand is that there are four simultaneous 24-hour days in a single earth rotation

Isn't she the one who wrote homophobic stuff on her blog and then tried to pretend she didn't like we're all stupid?

I don't think things would just calm down if Trump got ventilated. Probably the opposite.

It's as if I'm being gaslit into thinking I don't know what the word means!

It's very common for forums to have rules against posting in a thread that hasn't seen any activity for an arbitrary amount of time. When you do that, you will often cause a thread that has fallen from the front page to bump back to the top of the front page. It's not clear why this is a problem, though. Maybe regulars just dislike seeing old topics brought back up?

Here's what Kagi gave me:

The passage discusses the concept of "enshittification" in the tech industry, where companies initially attract customers through innovation but then exploit them by increasing prices and fees. This phenomenon has occurred at companies like Facebook, Google, Uber and food delivery services. The term was coined by author Cory Doctorow to describe how these companies stop innovating and focus only on generating value for shareholders at the expense of customers. However, the passage notes that increased unionization among tech workers and more aggressive antitrust enforcement could help reverse these trends and encourage more competition in the industry. An interesting point highlighted is that while enshittification is not necessarily directly malicious, it can be a product of business environment pressures and lack of regulation that incentivize prioritizing profits over customers. This suggests policy changes may be needed to realign company incentives with serving users.

I don't think that's correct. There's a vetting process (so it cannot be "any mod"), and it can't be an existing free mod.

Creations must be standalone, so it cannot depend on other community releases, free or paid. Creations must be all-new to qualify for release. You cannot re-purpose older releases – or work by other authors, unless contracted. Creations cannot contain anything produced through generative AI.

Nothing wrong with it, but why am I hearing about it?

I have to use Windows for work, and I choose to use Linux for all of my personal devices. Windows is trying very hard to corral me into using bing, edge, cortana, etc. and gets in my way when I try to use the tools I prefer instead. It intentionally obscures what its doing with updates and security. That is unacceptable. This is my computer, not theirs.

No Linux distro that I've tried does any of that shit. They have never tried to push my behavior in one direction or another, they aren't watching everything I do to help their product teams develop an even more annoying desktop. The various Linux distros I've used have felt like nothing but a way to let me use my damn computer.

I do have a small partition with Windows on it to play the occasional game I can't run on Linux with Proton. Thanks, Valve!

Even if that's true, that's a different computer.
