I have an RPi5 which I really like, but honestly Chromium and firefox work just fine for me here. So what is the intended audience? Asahi, upcoming nVidia hardware, or something else?

I love my Macs, but running Linux on it doesnâ(TM)t seem like a great choice (at least not right now). I splurged on an rpi5 16GB with a 512GB nvme hat and honestly it runs Linux like a dream. Had to do a firmware update for the nvme hat but (which was simple) and now it could easily be a daily driver for everyday tasks.

If you are so determined to use AI to repair a legacy codebase, wouldnâ(TM)t it make sense to leverage AI, under the guidance of a team of engineers and architects, move everything to a cleaned up C++ base first, make sure things actually work the way they should, THEN spend the 2030s porting to Rust?

I think this is realistic depending on Valveâ(TM)s future plans for SteamOS and Steam deck. Wouldnâ(TM)t be surprised to see this happen

I did have issues going between LTSes with Ubuntu. I switched to Mint last year and 12 to 22.1 was seamless, but not sure what 23 will be like. I did put LMDE on another machine and I expect to get more time between releases but not sure what the upgrade path to v7 will be like. I donâ(TM)t feel like Windows did any better with this though.

Well it really depends on the distro. If you want something that is stable and donâ(TM)t need the latest and greatest, something like Debian or Ubuntu LTS do just fine. With Ubuntu LTS you can get ~5 years out of your setup without much effort.

Java? Not a dev (I PM and QA) but none of my devs have ever liked Java

Hahaha, no. Please come to Canada bro. It is insanely expensive here (although we major providers offer lans for as little as $10 a month for low income families).

Exactly. Bro sounds like a crybaby.

And they likely would not have connectivity

Hopefully there will be some kind of transition step here because while shorter SSL could prevent some attacks, it would be good if both google and apple (if they are determined to do this) would have a warning in between “not secure” and secure”. Like a yellow/medium warning along the lines of “this certificate is between 91-364 days old and may be less secure”

I only have Mint and macOS on all of my devices so I guess I dodged a bullet here. Win12 was driving me nuts so my laptop is mint only now. Might give Ubuntu another shot though.

Yeah when it comes to full immersion the only Nintendo game that really comes to mind is Metroid Prime - but I love Nintendo games in general

LOL comment win.

To get concrete proof that it is this easy?
