His legacy will be both. Jury is still out on what people will remember most. Hitler is not primarily remembered as a painter. Nor will GWB, when his time comes.

With the OS/2 Workplace Shell. It's been downhill ever since. I would pay good money to have this shell on a modern OS, with anti aliased fonts usable on LCD monitors.

I had one before, and fainted. Nevertheless, it was medically necessary.

Which laws did companies create ?

I did not miss it. CEO ownership is an example of a difference in structure between these companies.

Not just apps, but device firmware, too

That usually depends on majority shareholders, voting share classes, and board members. Many companies are structured in such a way that make it practically impossible to oust the CEO. For example, Facebook. Not sure about Telesat or Starlink.

I am sure they know about it already.

Half of shrinkage comes from employee theft. For Wal-Mart, it's a cost they accept for paying their employees shit wages. I'm sure they have done the math on this.

If your TV still has an IR receiver, as my 2020 vintage 82in Q70r samsung vintage does, you can use a universal IR remote instead of the original Bluetoot6hzh remote.

I use an ARRX18G, which I programmed with Remote master. Macros always set the TV to HDMI input 4. I never see any of the built in stuff. They also set the correct input on the AVR to select the HTPC, fire stick or ccwgtv.

The only reason the TV is still connected to WiFi is for the smart view casting function from the phone.

The IR remote macros also take care of the lights with the help of an AR01 At-hom wifi IR receiver, smart wifi lights, and home assistant.

Even my 79 year old mother and my non techie husband can operate this very easily.
They could never setup 1/10th of it, though.

6 Ghz came with Wi-Fi 6E, actually.

I fine that my Ryzen 9 5950x with 64 GB DDR4 is plenty. Along with RTX 3060Ti GPU.

Apparently, both AMD and nVidia are considering resuming production of this sort of older parts, due to the increased prices for modern RAM and VRAM required by newest designs.

I have got 6 home built PCs in the house, and not one byte of DDR5. Everything is using DD4R4. I have been able to move sticks around when the required RAM footprints for each system changed. I have got 172GB in total, mostly in 8GB sticks, so there is some flexibility.

Humans also consume a lot of resources. If we need fewer bodies over time, things may balance. The problem is the transition. Do we plug every redundant person into the Matrix ?

Running fetchmail or Thunderbird need me to keep my own system running, along with power and internet connectivity. I am looking for something done by the provider. The existing setup with ISP-hosted domain and gmail POP3 fetching serves those needs. gmail cannot fetch via IMAP, at least not the free gmail.

Forwarding via SMTP is not viable due to the catchall address causing my domain hosting ISP's mail server to end up on an RBL, which was a great inconvenience, not just to me, but the ISP's other customers as well.

Putting everything at one provider - domain hosting, mail hosting, and webmail - would solve the problem. In my experience, one company is rarely the best at everything, and I prefer to use separate providers. Same reason I don't have mobile phone service with my cable company. It also allows me to shop around when one company decides to enshitify, or raise their prices, as one of my previous domain hosting providers did, dramatically, and I switched hosting provider. I was able to keep using gmail at the time, thanks to the POP3 fetching. Now, the time has come to replace the gmail piece also.

Thanks. I have never tried Vivaldi. No support folder seems like a big issue for me. I have never used things like "labels" in gmail. Just plain-old filters, that are mostly based on "to: xxx@mydomain" and move messages to a specific folder.

Speaking of which, I don't know if any other mail hosting provider has a way to migrate these gmail filters.

Yes, of course, I get what I paid for. But this is Google we are talking about. Even if I were a paying customer, I wouldn't put it past them to remove the feature. And indeed, the POP3 removal is probably not just going away for free accounts, is it ? As a Google customer, paying or not, one is just a cog in the machine, with zero leverage.

Google hasn't even specified a date for the termination of the POP3 fetch in gmail. Their "support note" just says "January 2026". And the only notification I got was reading this slashdot story by chance.

I guess this is why it hasn't even made it to https://killedbygoogle.com/

I did not even know Workspace supported IMAP fetch. Thanks for pointing that out. It would solve the problem. I'm not keen on paying for Google services.
