Recently? The last like 7 generations of "sport-year" games are all the same game.

Yeah let me find 20 million dollars to make that movie

Yeah. I highly suspect its mostly people who need Ubuntu for job purposes and have security policies or just the C-suite refusing to follow the times

People ask this for every boycott or nationwide movement. The real answer is that more people do it if more time is given.

Theres a reason those facebook posts or tiktoks of "We're boycotting ___ right now indefinitely!" Never really gain traction. Having one day where normies get to join in too and the data gets a sharp spike in activity is how change is noticed and effective.

"5 flock cameras are cut down nationwide weekly" is much less evocative than "On Halloween, 50,000 flock cameras were taken down in 3 hours" or something

Real answer: this is talking about computers with windows 11 installed that also run Ubuntu through a service called WSL, or Windows Subsystem for Linux; basically you have a windows 11 pc that can do linux stuff too.

A native Ubuntu machine would be installed directly to the hard drive and booted that way.

Also accidental hovering seems to count in my history like 50% of the time

Iirc it was mainly a novelty thing for playing video games. A DOTA2 tournament was one of their big breakthroughs

The business has to become profitable... To continue existing. There is absolutely no guarantee of that.

There is, however, overwhelming evidence that unless a major breakthrough is discovered within the next year, the well will dry up. They simply cannot afford to live off of investor hype and vibes forever.

Would make sense if the AIs made any money. This is kind of the same system we currently have while AI burns millions daily. Dollars, tons of coal, gallons of water reserves, creatives' livelyhoods... take your pick

For many, it is. Autism, hyperfixation, and passion are needed to do something like create an OS from scratch, pick and choose any of the 3 to then use it in an incomplete state.

Id argue we're finally at the point where you actually dont need any of those, just a willingness to learn and adapt

Id be using the hell out of payphones if they still existed. They just seem convenient and i have too many quarters

Given the watchowskis are trans, I'd say "not intentionally, but DEFINITELY subconsciously"
