But, it’s the Canary®™… of coal mine fame.

So old. Like 12 years old.

That’s only 10 Petabytes per cartridge. The Internet Archive is currently sitting at 212 Petabytes.

But, without disruptive new products, sales seem to be stuck in a muted place. And the next swing at big disruption, Vision Pro, starting next year, feels a like a slow build, initially.

Fuck stock market analysts. In one sentence it’s “they don’t innovate.” In the next sentence it’s, “they innovate, but I want them to do it faster.”

How often can you expect a single company to disrupt entire markets? These expectations are not sustainable.

I know this is from Kindergarten Cop, and it’s unfortunate that it just happens to sound like right wing rhetoric in the current political climate. So know that at least one person didn’t downvote you.

I also didn’t upvote to counteract those downvotes because it’s kind of a dumb, low-bar joke.

They’re also the company who mainstreamed the software subscription model.

It used to be that only services required subscriptions. Applications would be a one time payment. But, Adobe converted to the subscription model and because they hold a monopoly over the design space, people/companies had no choice but to go along. Once they were successful, every business in the world decided that they also wanted that sweet monthly payment and now software licensing sucks.

I refuse to even pirate Adobe products on principle.

TL;DR Fuck Adobe, use open source.

“Who even are the Gideons? You ever met one? NO! You ever seen one? NO! But they’re all over the world putting bibles in hotel rooms.”

Again?

The article doesn’t list the infected site. So, if you want to keep yourself safe by avoiding it, well… fuck you, I guess.

Edit: just skimmed through the original Group-IB report and they redacted the name of the site. Not the article’s fault that millions of people are still in danger to this malware.

Yeah, that’s what I want. For the government to tell me who I am or am not allowed to spend money with. I’m sure that wouldn’t have any negative repercussions.

Kind of. They look the same, but don’t act the same. Folder don’t show their contents until you double click them. They act like any other file in that way. One click to select. Double click to open. I like the more basic one click functionality for browsing.

Columns became the dealbreaker when I was considering switching from macOS to Linux. I need my columns.

I absolutely love Espanso. So much faster than TextExpander and I like that it’s config is plain text files.

You’re insane though if you think Inkscape is better than Illustrator. I’m not an Adobe fanboy by any means, but it is a really good (if bloated) product.

Firefox has been very good (better than Chrome) for several years. Ever since they released Quantum.

There’s nothing special about it. It’s just the extension in a larger format. I’ve tried to use it a few times, but there’s no gain over the extension. And, typically the extension is better because I already have my browser open, so I don’t need to open a new app.

Communism =/= leftism. It’s an extreme form of socialism.

My biggest problem isn’t even the communist ideals. Have your ideas, that’s fine. I don’t care.

My problem is the amount of people coming into post comments attacking American Imperialism® on posts that aren’t even related to communist ideals or, sometimes, that don’t even mention America. It gets tiring reading how much America sucks when that’s not even the point of the post.

Wow. Since you didn’t list the prices, I went to the links to check them out. Only $15-$20 to get a fully customized set of playing cards? That’s way less than I expected and I think I came away with some Xmas ideas.

Absolutely not. My 65+ year old parents just cut the cord recently because they were paying over $250 for cable. They now pay around $90 for Hulu+Live and get almost everything they had before, with a couple of small exceptions.

For those not clear, AppleTalk was created at a time where there was no universal standard in networking. The “standard network” you think of today, a bunch of computers plugged into a router, existed but wasn’t the de-facto setup. There was still experimentation going on.

Apple ported some of the AppleTalk features, such as Network Discovery, into Bonjour which was introduced in 2002. Once that became mature, there was no reason to keep AppleTalk around.

Everyone complaining this isn’t funny doesn’t realize this was peak comedy in 1985. You are all just jaded.
