Why does Microsoft hate Life Pro Top listicles?
You made me curious too — seems it ended in 2013. https://www.wired.com/2013/10/apple-ends-paid-oses/
The puck mouse was horrendous, though. My hand still hurts ~25 years later.
I remember buying Mac OS upgrades. Time for the retirement home, I guess…
Every year or so I fire up a VM, install a window manager on it, realize I have no idea WTF I’m doing, and nuke the VM and go back to my regular KDE desktop.
That is brilliantly simple. Certainly better than using collector limpets.
That’s true, but what you describe is pretty much the end state of big-box retail. Amazon is essentially the same, if we exclude AWS. It’s all a race to the bottom. The solution, as always, is to buy direct from smaller producers if possible.
I dislike that you’ve put me in the position of defending Walmart, but don’t you find it rather misleading to imply that they made 163 billion dollars in profit when the real number is less than 10% of that?
Yes, but there are many more expenses associated with running their business beyond simply COGS. Their net income last year was 11B, which is pretty average for a company that size.
Not really — it’s because nearly everything they sell is highly fungible, and they compete on price. Nobody is willing to pay a premium to shop at Walmart. Twenty years ago you’d have been correct, but they’ve pretty much saturated the market at this point. They’re trying to find profitability in automation rather than adding tons of new stores.
Slim profit margins my ass. Walmarts gross profit for the twelve months ending July 31, 2024 was $163.786B,
Not to sound flippant, but do you know what gross profit means? They aren’t pocketing all of that. Walmart’s net profit margin is 2.66%, which is minuscule. They make up for that by having enormous volume.
Remember to update only the keyring first and you should be OK.
Wow, that’s is actually what it does. https://github-roast.pages.dev/
I don’t know what Floorp makes me…
What if I take a screenshot and make an NFT out of it?
Is this one of those NFTs the kids are talking about?
My experience with dnf is that it’s slow as molasses

I bow to you, O bearded one!
