Just stop supporting the biggest actor in the market.

Hexchat and pidgin. What to do now when they are not supported on wayland?

I actually want Microsoft to do better. Then can, they just ignore user feedback about user choice, design, what to work on etc. Good if they start to get some competition. I wonder what will happen when ARM gets common in a normal PC-build. Good opportunity to make some big changes.

It miss all the different fullscreen popups about choosing edge, Windows Update reboot now or i will do it anyway things.

Both open and closed source got these.

If there is a problem at low power usage then you can easily solve it by temporary add more power. Lets say add a 40watt lamp or something, later remove it from the calculation.

Thank you for all this time. I still use it today, along with pidgin.

Because there is no native gui. For most things to configure in Linux there is a webui but not a simple Gui built in. Configuration files like squid.conf smb.conf nginx.com… then we have logs but here I think I never checked for a Gui, does it work for remote ssh easily? Can you restart service easy?

I don’t think they would do Linux. Better if they did a stripped down version of their OS that can run like Chrome OS. Secured with a web browser. Little maintenance as so much has been removed.

Yes, many other products as well. Not sure why there are no regulations regarding e waste.

It probably is. But MS choose how they want to keep the control of the users. But just leaving them like this is just bad. I feel EU should force them to give a solution since the computer came with Windows so it is their responsibility.

One alternative is to give them Chrome OS, or they might prefer building their of version of it.

Today I see a computer as end of life when it is to slow to view webpages. Often like when it is to little RAM available or the CPU is really too slow. Then I think Microsoft could stop caring about it.

I think Microsoft should actually be forced to either extend support or give the user one option to be secured. With the later I mean pay for license or click here to automatically choose a Linux distro that the user will be migrated to. It could be Mint or one of MS own Linux distribution with OneDrive preinstalled and links to Office 365 online word. Even install Android could be one option.

This is better than getting all the devices on the landfill.

Remember that 99% don’t know what to do with their computer or are lazy. One easy fix should be available.

It might also be harder to recover picies if the hard drive fail partially. However, many use SSD now, might be a different story there.

Servers in school. Learned how to setup a website, Linux tools test. Then at home how to setup a Counter Strike server.

That is sad

No. If it was easy to install then there would be a installation guide on the phone. Not even a installation program available on the computer to assist.

How do I get one with it preinstalled?

When I am on Windows and extract, I always get the top folder, but then it appears some compressed a folder with that exact name so I end up with two folders. Have to clean that up manually is really bad. I use Windows built in for zip and Winrar. Never even though about this problem before that it could be handled that way. Thanks for the tip!

Make a deep clone

Yes, you can write bad code and that matters most. Rust is more low level than high level language. Rust is new so not much bloat library has been written yet :) So far I have seen many lean Rust applications in the open source world. Please note I used the word “should” - no guarantees.

SQLite makes minimum memory usage much lower than MySQL. Many that would selfhost this is just for one single user and don’t need a standalone database

I can image that the application itself for doing this would not require much ram at all but having a MySQL requires much more ram usage in order of magnitudes.
