Technically they are, but I’m not sure how confident I am in YouTube showing you comments I a reasonable order regardless.

I’m just hearing about them now. Do they make really tiny software or something?

I know it may not be an easy question to answer, but does your company really owe them money? I’m guessing that their other software that uses their JVM also has a license, so they should be more clear about the company having to license out the JVM in order to use it. This sounds like a scam that comes packaged along with some other software.

The neo store also is available, can download apps from F-Droid, and it has a much better UI.

I remember when Windows 10 first came around, and people were trying to bring attention to the privacy issues in the TOS. Now it’s been widely adopted just about everywhere, and this is probably going to be the same.

Until you encounter some weird glitch that needs to be fixed using the terminal. It happens maybe once every couple of months for me, but it still happens. Even so, I’m considering switching fully after windows 10 goes EOL.

Maybe you put a revenant in the truck to keep things interesting.

He’s right you know. Scrapers and journalists will simultaneously know and respect the fact that he is not in the US, nor does he allow them to use his content without adherence to the license that he tacked on. I mean who would do that? And if they do? Oh boy they’ll be in trouble. Cory Doctorow will probably fire on them from his balloon or something. It’ll be glorious.

Ohhh man I wasn’t ready for how nostalgic the screenshots would make me feel. My friend from school told me about Ubuntu and OSS for the first time, and he came over to my house so we could mess around with the live CD. That’s what Ubuntu looked like back then!

Yeah I’m skeptical. Having installed windows on a machine that I put together about a year ago, it was pretty straightforward. Yeah I needed to install the drivers, but that didn’t take long. Maybe windows 11 is much more tortured than 10 though, which is what I installed.

As always, there is a relevant XKCD.

Can anyone give a layman an explanation as to what makes software like this unmaintained? It seems like it should be fine if it works and is still getting updates.

They could even bring back the Zune branding if they finally do it. It’d almost be poetic.

It’s a bit out there, but I see why he does it. It is a shame that the media has sunk to such lows.

Oh my God! Someone call the police!

He doesn’t want to let us use his comment for commercial purposes, which is a shame. I don’t know how I’m going to pay for dinner now.

My interest started in my physics classes. They teach you the basics of Linux since it gets used for simulations and solving other math problems as well. I’m not 100% sure why, but i remember not even finding windows versions of some software that we used. I think it’s connected to supercomputers almost exclusively running Linux, and I had a couple of professors that use them.

What if I enjoy ruining other people’s fun?

I don’t hate it. I feel like the goofy smile makes it just distinguishable enough to stick out from all the other minimalist logos.

I don’t feel like they’re inherently bad, but they’ve become so popular that they all feel like they’re blending together. I think it’s kind of stale at this point.
