--- Quote from: grizewald on July 18, 2022, 07:16:21 pm --- --- Quote from: Saskia on July 18, 2022, 07:02:43 pm ---I fucking hate Microsoft. Nuke them from orbit. --- End quote --- Can't we find some way slower and more painful? I couldn't believe it when I read this article recently by Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols, who I hardly remember as being a M$ fanboy: https://www.theregister.com/2022/07/13/microsoft_linux_company/ They were always evil and are still the embodiment of evil and always will be. M$'s only interest in open source is as part of their unchanged embrace, extend, extinguish strategy. Employing Poettering is the clearest evidence yet of their long term plan to assimilate Linux. --- End quote --- ok, feed them to a singularity, harness the energy and use it to get out of the current crisis ... |

--- Quote from: AVGresponding on July 18, 2022, 07:22:52 pm --- I opened my car windows in good time before setting off home, and the air inside had reduced from blast furnace to merely unpleasantly warm, but the seat back was so hot it felt like I was sitting in a sandwich press. --- End quote --- If it does become necessary to go out in this heat, 25 minutes beforehand I shall press the button that turns my car's air conditioning on remotely.

Edit: Just picked SWMBO up from work and its now 39C :phew: And its currently 32C in my lab with all the windows and curtains closed. --- End quote --- 37.1 in Brizzle. My temp is 37. Just about to walk to the local shop to get some sparkling water. I expect the tarmac is ~55C. I may be some time[1] [1] after Warren Oates, who followed that idiot Scott to his death. But Scott was well-bred, so he was a better example[2] of a hero than Shackleton - who stunningly managed to lead his men to safety. [2] Bloody "Dulce et decorum est, pro patria mori" attitude. --- End quote --- i really hate to be that guy. but was just watching an episode of "gunsmoke" and saw warren oates. you probably meant lawrence oates? |

Employing Poettering is the clearest evidence yet of their long term plan to assimilate Linux. --- End quote --- If they do assimilate LINUX, the rest of the world might get a memory architecture that actually works... :o Of course, they could've done that with OS/2 decades ago, so I'm not holding my breath. ::) mnem A programmer friend once described Windows' Memory structure as something like the Baba Yaga's Hut: A huge house full of evil code to create a rootkit against the computer's owner, standing on spindly chicken legs that takes nothing more than a sneeze to make it all come tumbling down... :-\ |
