My Pixel 4A is ancient now and it has always fixed with all the constellations. I think at any one time it's seeing 30 odd satellites, all contributing to the fix.

Sure sounded like one. The questions posed could have been worded more clearly with less room for wiggling. But the bot did an excellent job of avoiding all the questions.

Nevermind. The problem was my /tmp ramdisk was full. I guess Fedora uses tmpfs by default and it's a fixed size. This has bit me before. Wonder if I can change it back to a normal directory on the disk.

This is FOSS done right. It's the applications that matter the most for organizations. If you can migrate them first to FOSS solutions then the OS doesn't matter so much and Linux because feasible. If you can break the addiction to MS Office and Exchange, that's 90% of the battle. Good on them. Sounds like they've had success doing that which means any future Linux migration will have a higher chance of succeeding.

Not anything. I'm sure when Federal troops take over the State Capitol and Newsom is put in prison for unspecified but certainly horrible crimes, the military governor that takes his place will make sure none of this kind anti-corporate nonsense continues.

I had forgotten about this add-on. I tried to install it just now and Firefox says it's a corrupt package. Right from the Firefox Add-on site even.

No these computers plug straight into 110v (or 220v). Yes they are modern laptop components inside. If you're replacing an old desktop computer and already have a screen, these are way more economical than a laptop. Have you looked at cheap old laptops lately? You can buy them on Amazon for a song, but they are all 10 years old. These mini PCs are simply a better buy. I use them for mini servers. They may be 10 times more expensive than a Raspberry Pi, but with 10 times more utility in my opinion. For the most part I'm done with ARM SBCs.

So good to hear about these sorts of parents. Kudos to her, and also to the first poster who is able to keep his kids off of devices and social media. Takes a tremendous amount of effort and resources to do that. I know many parents struggle with it. They don't have the time and resources. It's not easy at all. And many single homes are single parent where it's even harder to balance working to survive and helping the children have the best possible chances to succeed.

Last week someone accused me of not being conservative. Apparently I cosplay as a conservative because I'm not a fan of the same political sports team they were. In my mind doing what your friend is doing to raise her kids is the best form of conservatism. A stay-at-home parent is indeed the best way to raise children where possible. We've seen that throughout history, and it's been proven over and over again. Where it's not possible, I am in favor of governments and societies providing assistance to parents in many different forms to ensure they can parent to the best of their ability. A village certainly helps raise a child. Cutting social services, gutting public education certainly does not help improve the outcomes for parents already facing challenges as they do their best to raise kids.

It's so rewarding watching small children discover principles of physics (action and reaction) as they begin to interact with their world. And awesome when they start becoming interested in how things work. Or interested in mundane things around them like insects, or frogs. My niece once spent an hour looking at frogs and toads on the banks of a small pond near her home. Time much better spent than than on a screen that's trying to give her hits of dopamine to addict her to mindless games.

Given his low uid, I'm surprised at gweihir's surprisingly ignorant comments. He's at least as old as I am (I've been reading slashdot since the very beginning which certainly says something about me... sigh). If he had any kids they are long raised by now.

Probably the most inappropriate comment I've read on Slashdot in quite a while. You're way out of line. Stop and think before hitting submit next time.

I suppose you think preventing your kids from smoking, vaping, and consuming alcohol would be child abuse too? I don't think you realize the harm being done to very young children that the original poster has managed to prevent thus far. His children will be well-adjusted and very grateful as they reach adulthood (I know I am grateful for that kind of raising). Kudos to that parent for what they are doing. Keep it up as long as possible!

It's quite easy to activate XP now all these years later. So if you have some old, isolated machine that requires XP, you can install it still.

Sure bit if you do need to run Windows 11 the old i5 might not have the TPM 2, and probably is bigger and consumes more power.

There are those that think we're masochists for running Linux. I disagree with them of course. But whatever.

They are small, cheap, pretty fast, and run Linux well. And Windows 11 decently if you have to. Most of them come with Windows 11 Pro (licensed in the firmware). $200 USD for 16 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD. Perfect for those that are forced to upgrade their old desktop PCs.

Crowdstrike uses eBPF on Linux, so it doesn't require a third-party kernel module as far as I understand it. In other words they use a kernel-provide API to do their detection work on Linux, much like they do on macOS.
