"Regime"? You speak like the USA is in a dict........

Nevermind.

I did the switch 9 years ago. Never looked back.

I also ditched any MShit for a self-hosted Nextcloud. I am on par with features, and for the price of an MS subscription, I got a fixed IP for hosting all my data at home, accessible from anywhere.

Not a setup for John Doe, but great for the nerd I am.

Art of the deal.

Until they find another way - or loophole - to planned obsolescence.

That's their business model. Having fools line-up in front of their stores when new models launch.

Here is the all new and shiny iScrew!

The iScrew driver is available in 5 different formats starting at a mere 249.99$ each and has an AWESOME minimalist design. Depending on the device on which you want to replace the battery, you may need the whole kit, available for only 999.99$

And don't forget the new iBattery! Available for less than a cup of (Starbucks) coffee per day!

Plenty of features, easy to install and use, easy on resources, open source, and independent from Microslop.

What more can you ask for?

I used to have all my repos on Github. Now they're all in my Gitea.

Yes, that'd be a very good idea. I use notepadqq, which falls short on features, extensions and maintenance (there is a not on the project's Github that it is no longer actively maintained). However, it is very usable if you don't need fancy tools and extensions.

Cause this means we're getting closer and closer to RAM and storage returning to normal prices.

Damn. It took a whole 40 minutes between the first post and your post for someone to come up with the fact that search warrants against journalists should never be issued to find their sources. Kudos.

This should have been the first topic to be discussed, instead of "Apple ads" and technology stuff. Police states and totalitarian regimes go after journalists sources. Freedom of press is paramount in a democracy.

Francophile jerk here. Va chier.

To address the subject, if our main problem is that our PM has a "British writing style", I guess we're in a far better position than our US neighbors.

This is not only a dupe: it's a super-dupe, with the exact same title and a link to the same news article. Bravo. https://it.slashdot.org/story/25/11/24/154202/lenovo-stockpiling-pc-memory-due-to-unprecedented-ai-squeeze

Your expectations are really high, thinking that commenters start by reading TFS, let alone TFA, before commenting.

No alcohol and little sex? I wonder how your life can be THAT great XD

That was a good thing. These truckers had been occupying our country's capital for weeks, financed illegally by foreign countries. And this was a conspiracy movement, looking to overthrow the government. I understand and am 100% behind my government seizing their funds. They were also blocking some major commercial borders and routes across Canada. This is the nearest you can be from an attack by a foreign country without receiving actual bombs.

Luckily, I am in Canada, so NSA / ICE / FBI have no jurisdiction here. I'll let you guys deal with them, and with that orange thing serving as your dear leader
