You can legally rent a car at 18, it’s just that no company wants to rent to you.

I bet energy usage of aws is counted for the business/people using those services.

I’m sure there is a bumper stick that’s says “I got this before musk was crazy”

That’s pretty rare these days. If you running reading edge then maybe there are a few months or using a wifi- usb adapter.

I think a VM is a bad solution. Maybe if it’s a very rarely used program, but typically the stuff people need that don’t work in Linux are for work which is why people HAVE to use them.

If I did that, I’d just be working out of a windows vm 99% of my computing time, so it doesn’t make sense for me.

I’m not a Linux wizard but I’m pretty skilled and I love mint. Although, my preference recently changed to Fedora plasma.

This is my thought as well. Even if things go well this time, who’s to say they will not feel entitled to come back. Maybe with or without your knowledge.

I’d send them away otherwise I might start getting a regular visitor to my house asking for stuff.

In public, I’m happy to give money or food.

I think about this sometimes. What stuff can’t you do in a Linux GUI that an average person would be able to do in Windows? For the sake the simplicity, lets limit the GUI to Cinnamon, Plasma, or Gnome.

Obviously, there are obscure GUIs out there, but in the main ones, I think just about everything can be done without CLI.

Those are good points actually.

You’ve changed my opinion about how I felt about version 2.

Back before software subscriptions were a thing, I had a few different licenses which I would have assumed were perpetual.

In a way they were, but then my version stopped receiving updates and version 2 came out and they wanted me to buy version 2.

So perpetual licenses don’t mean anything if the company wants to be a jerk about it.

Who? You mean Rafaell?

Sorry, I should have elaborated.

The laws are strict and would hold doctors liable in some places. There was an instance where a woman needed some pain killer but the doctor wouldn’t prescribe it because it could cause the termination of a fetus.

When the lady told the doctor she wasn’t pregnant, he told her that she could become pregnant.

I know that’s an extreme example, but it is an example.

Another is that abortions in the case of rape might be illegal in some places and traveling out of state to a place where about is legal is also illegal.

It’s also illegal in some places to knowing help a person get to a place where it’s legal to get an abortion.

I’m not in expert in the subject, and the law varies by state so it gets confusing.

My wife and I do not live in the US and don’t plan to return, so we have not followed it closely.

Oh, I think there was also an issue of cops or the government possibly buying the data from period tracking apps, but I’m not sure about that.

Some states have pretty strict laws regarding abortions.

I assume that this is what the person is referring to.

Yeah, and it’s “Hillary’s Turn” 🤮

I know, it’s exactly how I feel about the situation.

They are going to release a new version with monetization soon. Maybe that will be a big .0 release and maybe there will be a Linux version.

So what will happen? Cops will get a see all account and then their will be record numbers of applicants to be a cop 😂

To share the bigger picture, I’m using this app 99% of my working hours. So it doesn’t make sense to do it this way.

I’d be better off just working out of the vm but due to performance loss and dealing with passing through usb I just use windows.

Although, outside of work I use Linux.

That’s pretty interesting, but it’s a meeting software. So I’m regularly sharing my screen and sharing files. So I need to be in the os. I’ll just key checking it every time a roster counts out for proton or the app I use.

Me 😢

I have a critical work app that will not run in wine or with proton.

I’ve even contacted the devs and they suggested trying to run the android version on Linux, but it doesn’t work either.

That’s a cool feature. I doubt the app would offer this as they probably do not want to allow the notifications to be turned off.
