...before Linux 7 takes over Linux XP in number of users?

I have been to all of the QC Snapdragon briefs, know the engineers personally, and have written about the shitshow on SemiAccurate.com extensively, basically I know what is going on. QC doesn't understand what they are doing and why, and there is ZERO internal impetus to change from the people on top. They do nearly nothing on software enablement because, "That is Microsoft's job". Drivers are intentionally locked down and encrypted to block Linux, and x86 compatibility is BETTER in hardware than the Mac Mx line (Same people who did the M1 and M2 did the X1 and X2, and they all just bailed on QC) but the software is.... oh look outside, there is a sky.

TLDR: No chance in hell there will be a fix.

The community college I'm attending a class in online uses Proctorio. The rules say that we shouldn't wear headphones during the tests because we could be getting answers through the headset.

I'm taking a foreign language class, and part of the tests involves listening to spoken words. I don't own computer speakers, so how am I supposed to follow that rule? I'd have to buy speakers for just Proctorio.

You can always make your own custom Secure Boot key database and sign whatever you want.

It's even easier on millions of Dell and Alienware computers that used the test key as their production Platform Key. You can just use the leaked private key to modify the keys without being easily detectable.

Knowingly.

Microkernel architectures still always involve doing a full context switch when moving between processes. All the registers need to be reloaded, importantly including the entire page table. The page table flush is particularly painful.

A country is a piece of land. Germany did not do send people to concentration camps - the people running it did.

If only they had a marketing department. Someone whose job it was to understand these things

They will have one person take the interview for them, and another do the actual "work".
Probably happens all the time, irregardless of North Korea.

Yeah, it's genius. Especially the bit where they gave their competitor $13.75 billion first.
Thought leaders of tomorrow, right there.

People don't quit or stay over a 0.2% pay difference.
They quit because they hate their boss.

There's always "powershell.exe -command ..." to get PowerShell to download an .exe from a web server and run it.

"PC" meant "primary cassette", the main paper tray of HP printers of the time. Other paper trays connected would say other things there when out of paper. "Letter" is the paper size.

Oh great. Clippy on crack cocaine. My life is complete.

Where are the customers going to go? RISC?
ARM is leveraging their market leading position to open up a new market - not surprising
