Child, I had a Cyrix math co-processor for my 286 computer.

This FA is about Linux dropping support for "AMD K5 as well as various Cyrix processor models", I think your dodo is long out-of-support.

ok, that wasYour callousness to the concerns of your own employees is concerning - Slashdot truncated the headline.

after they got caught auto-adding AI.

Did they "auto-add AI"? My impression was that they were starting to look at doing this - but not on this scale - but realised pretty much from the start that a lot of people did not want it so they offered an Opt-Out.
btw, this 4GB won't be a one-time "thing", there will be bugs found and updates provided.

When it comes to "(anti) trans crap" (for lack of a better word), the question is not about the biological sex of transgenders, but whether biological sex or perceived gender should prevail in various social contexts, and when one would be considered a transgender (self-declared, diagnosed with gender dysphoria, or having undergone sex reassignment surgery). And so on. They are social rather than biological questions, even though biology does play a role, for instance when considering transgenders in sports.

"We need AI to do stuff we can't do"
I am letting AI do that... for stuff that I personally can't do. I've had AI design logos, make short clips, draw cartoons, create avatars for online use, write and perform music. I can't draw, sing or perform for crap, and since this is all for various hobbies, I can't afford the humans who can do all that either.

Given what happened at the end of 2025/ start of 2026 it looks as though the PRC overlords struck back.
(I got that link from another comment here)
Of course a non-affiliated Notepad++ could just as easily be carrying any kind of malware from any state-sponsored grouping, has anyone had the chance to look at the source?

poor quality software?

An alternative explanation would be that Copilot itself was responsible.

Well in my case, my Graphics adapter does not offer Display Port and I'm not about to buy a new one at current prices. My monitor supports both and this will be good news for me - once it comes.

GameStop is preparing an offer for eBay is from two days ago, and some of the comments there were actually appropriate.

Because: CEO Ryan Cohen has signalled interest in large-scale acquisitions to grow GameStop into a significantly larger business. Cohen’s compensation package includes incentives tied to achieving a $100 billion market valuation.

You're looking at this the wrong way, the 2017 - and subsequent - platform(s) got it right, but the Las Vegas bookmakers either bribed the predicted top 4 jockeys to slow up a bit or they manipulated the top 4 predictions in the first place. Let's hear it for conspiracy theories!

At least Israel's bombing of the Tehran synagogue does not appear to have been double-tap, and killing civilians was not their primary aim. They claimed they were trying to kill some political or military figure, although I have not seen any names named so that could just be garbage.

If Trump wanted there would be literal rivers of blood in Iran. Instead it's only the odd supreme leader or 2 and some ancillary support staff pushing up daisies.

What about the 150+ Grade School kids who were at the business end of a Tomahawk missile on about the first day of the US's attack? The Revolutionary Guard had been stationed there around a decade earlier and the US had never got around to updating their maps.

Not the "brain drain" we were worried about...

That's how a lot of classes were in my high school (Montessori). We were told to read certain chapters of the syllabus ahead of the class, perhaps do a few exercises. In class, the teacher helped with difficult problems, walk the class through the tricky ones, and expand on the material that was studied. And the amount of homework we got was very reasonable.
