Fire OS is an Amazon-led fork of Android. Vega is an Amazon-led fork of Linux that does not contain Android. This has been planned and worked on since 2023.

I just completed the update for macOS, the UI change isn't nearly as jarring as I was led to believe. The added borderlines for some of the monotoned apps (like Messages) are actually a good touch.

I'll save the phone upgrade for later...

Clearly you didn't read the article. I'll share with you quote from it:

"As New America’s Kevin Carey has noted, the demographic cliff risks accelerating the “geographic consolidation that is already upending American politics” as college-educated Democrats congregate in cities and coastal areas in which campuses will thrive — while people in rural towns, less likely to have degrees, might bear the brunt of closures."

Why would you get a set of speakers tied to an app?

And by 'cracked' I mean the expansion card was cracked in half during shipping.

Trying to get Slackware to boot on a turnkey PC server that had arrived with a cracked SCSI drive controller was my very first foray into Linux. (After 12 hours of futile efforts me and my coworker could not)

I was an OS/2 kid at the time and knew next to nothing about Unix. Thanks to Linux now I do.

Or it just fails to connect to a majority of hosts on the internet and might as well be disconnected from the network.

There's no way this number is real.

So this happened in Florida?

A list of creators and contributors, not a mention of any sort of managers. The closest thing to management is 'Management Analysis".

Interesting.

Do like all smart affair-havers do, don't got to a public venue with lots of people and cameras.

I doubt many current SDEs were alive for Windows Vista, hence the repeating mistakes because old stuff isn't worth learning about.

If you just looked on Wikipedia for it you won't find it, but it did exist: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnet.com%2Ftech%2Ftech...

I was running OS/2 on a PC hoping that the promise of Write Once Run Anywhere meant we didn't all have to run Windows 98 on our PCs. I remember Lotus wrote an entire Java version of their SmartSuite that had the potential to replace Microsoft Office. Too bad Java was so dogshit slow, launching the Java Lotus Word Pro took ages, hard drive thrashing like a blender until you forgot why you clicked on it and what you wanted to write.

The promises of those slim network clients that were Java workstations just never seemed to pan out. That's what I'll always remember Java as, something that was supposed to save us from Windows.

Instead we got a bunch of Web games that ran slower than Flash, then they went and named something JavaScript that wasn't even the same language and 20-odd years later it's something that runs pretty much on corporate Linux VMs for corporate stuff.
