Sad to say but these days that is a real possibility.

Why do we, a supposedly intelligent species, make war rather than cooperate ? If you think that I am naive - please explain.

and his push for coal quite so much if the pollution so caused would stay within the borders of the USA so that only Americans suffer climate and health problems caused by the orange idiot's stupidity. Unfortunately this is fantasy: we all share this planet and it's atmosphere so we all suffer pollution elsewhere.

So... About 55 years old with a pudge and shiny head?

Did you decide a really sad car was easier than a gym membership? Did you know that Corvettes are about as sexy as leisure suits in 2025?

Seriously... You shouldn't have bought the 2022. It isn't even useful for compensating for something. Spend the money on a trip to Turkey for hair implants instead.

I actually had forgotten about Corvettes... I thought they ungracefully faded away.

Sorry, I live in Europe. We don't have GM here

Don't let your kids grow up to be professional techies.

Unless they're unwilling to be enslaved and have a union.

If my entire production system were attacked and I lost all 500,000 nodes, network, and base storage, in 200 data centers in 100 countries, we could have operations back up in a few hours... days if we need to fly staff to remote sites.

I don't care how bad the hack is... Even if you have to debrick every electronic system one by one and even build and install firmware, I'd be embarrassed if it took more than a few days to get systems at least operational. If accounting and ordering is the problem, where is the backup?

If JLR can't handle this, do you really trust a car made by them?

Maybe it's better if they don't recover.

This is pretty amazing.

How does this compare to human readers?

Are the problems with AI or are the source articles the issue?

It's a developed nation problem.

In properly developed countries with socialism and high standards of living, education is a serious problem. We don't focus on it anymore. After all, kids were raised believing that they will do just fine if they do just fine. Also, free market capitalism has driven home ownership so high that even with a top job, a young person can't buy an apartment until at least their mid to late 20s.

We depend on underdeveloped countries with corrupt governments to provide good people because horrible countries like India where the prime minister sees less than half the people as human beings and runs a "worse than apartheid" nation gives huge incentives for people to work as hard as possible to escape to a place where you don't have to be worried that your daughter might be stoned to death in the middles of the village for committing the crime of being violently raped.

Americans lack incentives to perform well.

Good pay is nice, but this isn't the boomer generation. A good apartment in the city and enough money to out, rent a ride share and take some vacations is great.

Owning a house sucks. Long commutes, new car (and payments) every few years, shoveling, mowing, fixing the roof, etc... all the time. That's for the boomers. Who needs a big crap house which you just fill with crap to store even more crap?

If I were 30 years younger, I'd have bought a 70m.sq. apartment in the city, dumped the car and bought a workshop with some friends.

I wish Slashfot had a simple one click like button.

Portable TV fot the cabin?
Popup shop display?
Hot dog stand display?
Portable large second screen for Mac?

I do see a bunch of applications. But they are all niche and $3000 is a huge amount of money for a screen that is both too big and too small. 18" has always been a crap screen size.

Also, as a Wacom 27" owner, touch at that size is just annoying

need do nothing more. They appear to have outsourced the problem to Microsoft.

Those are problems of yesteryear. Yes: you can still find examples but by and large plug and play just works.

It depends on who's you are talking about, not all users have the same requirements.

Most home users just want to do a little word processing and use the web - the web is how they access email - Linux has been able to support that perfectly for over a decade; the users will never need to use the command line. Other things like music playing and picture editing work well as well. Yes the user will need to do a bit of learning but that is quickly done.

Corporate office environments often have specific requirements but a high proportion will work nicely. I have news for you: you do not need to achieve 100% transition; pick the low hanging fruit and migrate harder ones later, some never will move.

All computer systems can be hard so you will need access to someone who can get under the hood. This is true for Linux, MS Windows, Mac or anything else. It is true for home and office use. So find someone. I support several like this, few issues - the last one was "I have forgotten my password", a universal problem.

The hard part of a move to Linux is doing it for the first time. Once done and the fear of the unknown has been conquered it all becomes much easier.

I'm going out on a limb here but I think people need to spend on food vs. an expensive flagship phone.

No? Just me? Ok...
