I learned how computers/PCs worked reading InfoWorld and Byte magazine. (I put in 40 years in the biz). Never met him, but I felt like we were friends. Admittedly, some of his predictions missed the bullseye (still waiting for IBM to go bust). But he was fearless and self deprecating. For me his writing style just a pleasure to read. He made a difference in my life. Peace to you Robert X. Cringely.

Submission + - Linux 6.10 Honors One Last Request By Hans Reiser 1

DVega writes: ReiserFS lead developer and convicted murderer Hans Reiser a few months back wrote letters to be made public apologizing for his social mistakes and other commentary. In his written communications he also made a last request for ReiserFS in the Linux kernel

“Assuming that the decision is to remove [ReiserFS] V3 from the kernel, I have just one request: that for one last release the README be edited to add Mikhail Gilula, Konstantin Shvachko, and Anatoly Pinchuk to the credits, and to delete anything in there I might have said about why they were not credited. It is time to let go.”

Comment Re:Why Do People Bank with Big Banks? (Score 2) 80

I am leaving US Bank after 30 years because the website signs me out after a couple of minutes of non-use. Plus, the UI has gone downhill so much it is just painful. The mobile app is better than the website, but I am old school, and prefer a big screen. I am switching to a local credit union. I am pretty sure US Bank will not miss me.

Where I work we have been using Teams for about a year, switched from SkB. We have about 6 offices with 1 in India 500 hundred partners. Teams is how we communicate. I would guess Teams has had about 99% uptime. IMO UI beats SkB. I am in meetings and on calls for a couple of hours ever day, and messaging/chatting off and on all day. I am pretty critical of tools I use, but I have know complaints with Teams.
