The Lenovo laptop I type this on is 15 years old, it runs Linux and I use it every day.

I have 3 perfectly working computers (two Sharp MZ-80K's and a HP-85, none of those run anything by Microsoft) in the room here that are over 46 years -almost half a century- old. My HP-1660C logic analyzer is about 30 years old. My Wyse WY-60 terminal is 40 years old (connected to a Udoo Bolt V8 computer from 2019 which I also use every day, and which is also running Linux -- Windows 11 is not supported on it even if that computer is only 7 years old).

None of those machines is obsolete, the HP-85 has an SD-card interface. Whenever I need to make a quick calculation I turn on the HP-85, I can even print out the results with the built-in printer. The MZ-80K's are running software that I wrote and assembled/compiled on my Linux machines. There is also an SD card interface for the MZ-80K.

Because Microsoft introduced artificial limitations that prevent perfectly working computers to run Windows 11.

Just use Latin:

Counterclockwise = prograde.
Clockwise = retrograde.

Well, on Earth it is, it may be different in your solar system.

That myth has been debunked.

The native operating system of ARM is RISC OS.

Yet Another Dupe

dBASE II was a sequel to nothing.

(Well, it was a re-release of Cecil Wayne Ratliff's Vulcan database for CP/M when Aston-Tate bought a license to that, but there never was a "dBASE I".)

LibreOffice is not USA's big tech, The Document Foundation is a German non-profit organization (Stiftung).

Well, I was of course a bit flippant in choosing my example for comedic effect...

But the same goes for every order that a "hallucinating" AI agent can place or any other thing that an AI agent can do on your behalf, including those which do not look absurd but are still unwanted or inconvenient to just wrong.

We are talking about autonomously acting AI agents here, not just about a chatbot.

If such an agent "hallucinates" that you need two truckloads of ping pong balls and places an order to be delivered at your front door, you don't want that to become common.

I have no idea what you are talking about, it shows fine in Firefox on both Linux and Windows for me.

Core memory for the Raspberry Pi Pico.

Yet Another Dupe

Both Heroic (source code) and Lutris (source code) do on Linux what GOG Galaxy does, and a lot more.

Ghoti: pronounce "gh" as in "enough", "o" as in "women", "ti" as in "nation": fish.

Nonsense, there are plenty of people who are not greedy.
