oh fu

more users means, they should do much better than the ones with less users (assuming each user is worth the same/requires same infra).

at the worst case, a bigger org could just copy paste a smaller orgs system a couple times to get the exact same uptime, with same budget per user*. The benefit of bigger orgs is, that they can consolidate these separate system a big system that is more stable AND costs less. If this wasn’t true, we wouldn’t have big orgs in the first place**.

* yes, it is NOT the same budget for the users. You can’t JUST copy paste the system, you’d also need to think how you split it up. I know there are a million little things to nitpick here, but this can all be solved somewhat easily, and they wont change the overall argument.

** regulatory capture, lobbying, corruption and creating a monopoly could also be consider aspects of “consolidating into a bigger system”. This doesn’t mean why MS shouldn’t be able to be better, it just explains why they aren’t better.

how does it compare to other distros on the chart?

e.g. i can imagine that many military people us RHEL (which already is on the appropriate place on the chart).

They were all conscripted and when in that kind of situation (drafted by monsters) you just do not say no

at least werner von braun was a high ranking nazi. I am not sure about the others

And while being there you may also do everything that is possible to make the shit little less shit.

yes, you could argue, that slaves under werner von braun had better survival chances than else where. (I am not sure if that is true though)

I agree, but if my only choices are “copy-right law as it is” vs “abolish all forms of copyright law, including plagiarism”, I’d go with the later.

(I am only talking about “law” here. People and orgs should still boycott and denounce plagiarism.)

MSSQLMS is goat tho

Oh, now I see my mistake. I forgot to mention that while fixing the previous bug on the website, I removed iOS. You are running Nyarch-Linux nyaow

how is IRC cancer?

the problem with ORM is that some people go all in on it and ignore pure SQL completely.

In reality ORM only works well for somewhat simple queries and structures, but at some times you will have to write your own queries in SQL. But then you have some bonus complexity, that comes from 2 different things filling the same niche. It’s still worth it, but there is no free cake.

hm… actually I think that story only sounds excagerated, but is actually 100% true.

I like the story of guy in medival Münster who founded a classless christian society. When the army of his local loard came knocking, knew God was in his side, so he charged them alone. The army then cut him into pieces and nailed his balls to to towns gate.

Today there are 3 cages on the church of münster, containing the bones of the co-conspirtors

kotlin also has ()->{} and {} (when there is just 1 parameter)

yes, just like in the OP

Recycling is a scam invented by big oil to shift the responsibility to the consumer. Every second we argue about correct recycling, is a second we don’t argue about system changes.

were you banned from reddit as whole, or just specific subs?

i use nyarch btw

Most Adobe tools don’t have any good free alternatives even for home use.

inkscape is on a level with illustrator (maybe even better)

for drawing: try krita

if you want to pay money (much much less than for adobe): Affinity is on a level with fotoshop

. But it is trained well enough to correlate left and right together

eliza could do that 60 years ago

The Ad sponsored web model is not viable forever.

a thousand times this

we’ll probably get a win 12 that is less good than win 10, but better than win 11,

I wouldn’t count on it. MS is moving away from selling desktop-stuff and towards selling cloud stuff (think azure and office356) and consulting. That’s why they changed their attitude towards linux (think wsl and c# for linux) and open-source (think github). MS wants companies to use open-source tools (preferably written in c#) and deploy them to azure with the help of MS-consultants.

Enshittifying windows is a step in that direction. For example: The more people have a MS-Account, the easier it is to sell office356. That’s why they pressure windows-user into making MS-Accounts.

MS knows that desktop is dying.
