We won't really know this is true until it happens. I have high hopes for SpaceX - specifically I hope they can do much more with less. Either way though, this is a big win for everyone!

Unfortunately that cash can't magically feed and hydrate all the starving children in Africa or wherever your tears fall for.

If it could, you'd have a point. Unfortunately (for your point) it can't.

Yea, all sorts of amazing things that Android phones have had since 2011?

You realize the distillation of that answer is the same? Licensing and greed.

Licensing is the direct cause, but greed is the reason there were exclusivity agreements to begin with.

What? Never heard of centerfire primers doing that. They have to be crushed or heated?

I'm not sure why this is really an argument to be getting into. I'm going to throw the blame on Apple for this one for not using a dedicated swap partition.

It's hard to use up too much space for swap to work, when the space set aside for swap is literally impossible to use for other purposes.

The point is that you're dangerously toeing the line. Running out of disk space doesn't cause very graceful failures. Even a 5% "buffer" of free space is enough. I realize these are client machines and not servers, but still. You don't need pagerduty or whatever waking your ass up to deal with it, but you should be dealing with it instead of believing it to be a non-problem.

Apparently you missed 95% of my sentence. Here it is, again.

If they had put a checkbox somewhere to tell the whole workspaces thing to fuck off and be a normal desktop, I wouldn't have had an issue with it.

The scary thing is I don't know if you're being silly or serious.

Ah, is it? Never had one myself. I saw it on the upper and lower, and presumed that meant something like all the other bits rather than branding.

That's the fun part about so many infections...

The more people with the virus, the more chances for mutations per given unit of time. The more chances for mutations, the higher the chance of a nasty mutation arising.

I'm hopeful the next era you let us turn off that fucking cashew without jumping through 30 flaming hoops.

Stop cleaning the barrel and watch what happens.

Breaking into someone's domicile or brandishing a deadly weapon shouldn't have an undo button.
