And Trump has zero good faith. Everyone knows that he is the most corrupt president the USA has ever had, but Republicans refuse to do what is right and hold him to the same standards they would hold a Democrat to.

no longer suffice.

General P. Funtimes has lost the war!

I'm sure their lawyers will bring that up at the trial. "Your honor, after publishing a false accusation of theft against this woman we eventually, after repeated requests, did some basic investigation and decided to stop."

Uh huh.

This is entirely unworkable.

Better tell US customs then. They've always checked drugs carried by people entering the US.

it would make sense for government to just buy out the patent so that much cheaper generic versions can be available to the citizens.

Why? Pharma companies can do math. If they were willing to sell the patent they would charge as much as they thought it was worth. Aside from a nice gift to the generic drugmakers, the result would just be the public taking on the risk of owning the patent.

You could decide the drug was critical and dictate the price. Besides being a bad precedent for the world's largest IP holding country, Novo is Danish so you'd also have international side-effects for other IP.

Are any of the profits going to Gila Monster conservation?

So every international traveler could be searched to see if their meds contain any patent violations and seized at the border?

This is entirely unworkable.

Ubuntu LTS has "Pro" offerings that take it out that far, and Windows isn't free, so it seems fair to include their paid expanded support.

The reason I wouldn't use the RHEL/Alma/Rocky is that I am impatient for new features, but if I was a "I don't care I want to run this for 10 years", then I'd run it on my desktop. I think this is mostly the reason enthusiasts dislike them, which is an opposed concern to "not supported long enough". RHEL10 recently released based on Fedora 40, where desktop enthusiasts are running a Fedora edition a whole year newer.

For Fedora, the "click here to upgrade" is pretty similar to the Windows "click here to upgrade" experience. Unless you get adventurous in ways you couldn't have gotten adventurous in Windows.

Still waiting on Amazon's Rocket Drove deliveries.

A loud *BOOM* rattles your windows. Looking out front, there's a smoking crater with a small brown box at the bottom, one corner flickering with fire.

As a Fedora user, sometimes you have a period of software instability when they push something not yet baked. It may be for a reason, but that reason may be nearly impossible to discern.

It's not news because the community is broadly used to it and they generally accept it as the cost of getting stuff faster.

Fedora is not as bad as it used to be, but they are really aggressive and inflict oddities from time to time.

If I were really bothered, I could go run something extra conservative, like Debian Stable or Alma Linux, but I prefer the fast-ish delivery of Fedora even accepting that sometimes things can go a bit south.

What LTS editions only do 5 years? I just checked SUSE, Ubuntu, and RHEL.

RedHat is up to 13 years, with the the first 5 years being "full" including releasing for brand new hardware and backporting as needed with another 5 years of "you can keep running it on the hardware you have, but we aren't promising support for new hardware" and another available 3 years of paid extension. Note that Windows 10 pretty much went "maintenance" with the release of Windows 11, so the RHEL lifecycle largely imitates the Windows lifecycle.

SUSE is a bit more generous on paper, but roughly this is about all the LTSes.

However day to day users are not interested and go for the options that favor rapid delivery of new capability, so people don't talk about them as much.

Didn't they say some rogue VP set up his laptop to torrent all 72TB of Z-Library to feel o-llama?

I wish my laptop had that many drive bays!

There's recently been changes to this with a number of larger websites and "high context" design is not universal in the slightest in Japan.

At work I am actually dealing with this quite often unfortunately.

Now how about documents all being created in Excel like it's Word?
