The argument centers around the equality of access, which is especially relevant in the digital age. Rural & disabled population may have problem accessing content with certain restrictions (e.g. need physical access, lack of accessibility features, only available in some region).
They took down the whole national datacenter, tried to extort the government officials, then finally gave up when they realized the officials are more corrupt than themselves.
Just another thing I’ve lost in life.
Why are you running Spotify as a service? I don’t think that’s what they mean by SaaS!
Does that kind of loop really mess with things? ELI5 please!
Also, what do you mean a lonely switch? Does it have that loop and a port connected to another switch in the network?
He is a cuck, alright…
Not sure where you get this, but the standard is now ruled by Blu-ray Disk Association. There’s no mention about patent. I’ve looked on the Wikipedia page and the only mention about royalty is about the video codec.
That’s what a thief would say.
I agree with your second point, but the first one is plain bullshit.
That’s like saying someone who’s had history making violent threat is not more likely to commit violence than other people.
It would be nice if they actually release this to production. Been hearing about it since last decade.
I wonder what’s on the ‘unknown’
You can also find whales in charity events.
It usually has something to do with programming. Again, most cases, the versions in the packages included in your garden variety stable distros should cover most use cases.
However, once in a while one would encounter the need of using the cutting edge features on certain compiler or interpreter. Rust comes to mind. I know Python introduced some features that could drastically alter workflow (e.g. switch statement). NodeJS is another one known to be lagging behind from time to time.
In other cases, hardware support might be taken to consideration, especially for newer machines. However, with Mint including the optional newer kernel, it shouldn’t be a problem.
Because for most use cases, Mint works flawlessly. It changes little from time to time. It has all the drivers to get started with a wide range of common hardware. It has all the codecs to play common media formats.
Of course if the package update is too slow, it’s not for you, but then unlike you, most people don’t need the latest and greatest. They just need something that works from the get-go with predictable behavior.
These days, AFAIK network boot is done thru initramfs. It loads rootfs in most cases I’ve seen tho.
What machine do you have for this?
I’ll tell you what’s practical. If pirates start charging me for stuff, and go thru all the hassle making their stuff difficult to copy, I’d rather just buy the original thru official channels.
Which is ironic, because they came to existence to fight Soviet.
