I've moved back to Arch based distros, currently trying Majaro. Snaps and flatpacks always have some issue

Same shit, another day. We had news pulled for a few days then they caved. Our politicians to my surprise couldn't be cowed. So go go go to our Canadian Commonwealth cousins

WOW just WOW ! Before rebates that bring the install price to AUD$8900, a 13kW system installed with a 10kW inverter cost ~AUD$13k. That includes installation. I then get around AUD$4k in solar rebates bringing down to that price. I dont even have to pony up the ~$13k just the end price. Batteries not included ;-)

Had to buy a book today.. The new local AU store was going to deliver AFTER Christmas. The US Store can have it to the local dropoff store within 8 fucking days... dohh back to the US purchasing via friends in the USA.. dumb shit Amazon

Current government having a bad run in the poll??? Look over there !!! A shiny new distraction (insert pie in the sky distraction here, ie. Space Agency), polls?, what polls??? Call my cynical, yep, I am....

when was the last time you used Linux?? Running Ubuntu Mate on a T61p right now, never skipped a beat from the moment it was install.. Compare that to my POS win7 work laptop that has been higly crappified by security and you'd choose linux everyday too.. Apple bahhh walled garden

I think that Business machines will be exempted here.
The corporate I work for has their own licencing server and loads their own crappified version of Windoze 7, also all our PC have UEFI disabled and secure boot ... I see big business has the bg stick in that arena.

I tried the preview, yawned and reloaded my Fav linux distro, nothing much to see here. Win7 still seems to be the pinnacle at the moment...

I still come across older cars that had both speed scales.. Even my wife pretty much unconsciously knows that approx 40mph = 60km/h; 50 mph = 80km/h and 60mph = 100km/h..... Even after we switched in the 70's people are still mainly bi-lingual... talk to me about the weight of a new baby and unless it's in lb I really am not sure if 2889g is big or not.....Arguments against fully " metracizing " are pretty moot. Been in a country that changed over and hearing all the hand wringing makes me sit back and laugh.

As if they would EVER allow anyone else to use NFC while they are growing a new walled garden/money spinner.

Cubic, what a bunch of crooks
We had them foist their crap on us in Brisbane, AU the only winner was the gub'ment coz the system wasn't flexible.
took 2+ yrs to implement and be relieable enough to use
Overall a great stuff up

Never stopped the Liberals before look at their previous policies on telecommunications. Patch work quilt Alex out on the fly.

I don't care for the year of the Linux desktop. I like the variety, coz when bad decisions are made I can move on. Mint is the first distro that works the way I do. Windoze users can do whatever the hell they do I don't care.

I meant poor performing against the standards set within my company...

In my company you would be out on your butt so fast your head would spin.
We demand, clean code correct code and correct documentation.
We also peer review the work and have the right to reject, which I do regularly Most of my colleagues correct their mistakes and admit to a brain fart day. poor performing colleagues strangely become redundant................
