To make your own distro, you will need two key things: a budget and people. Given how cutting budgets is also a thing with many government things, you run into danger of lesser maintenance standards of the distro as time progresses. Be it important as it may, the institutions will have to shell out money to make and support a standardized system. Using a mainstream or larger existing distro that also covers enterprise use cases can at least offset some of these troubles. Being able to and actually making it a reality are two different things, sadly.

The guys who’ve named daddy longlegs have taken all the provisioned silliness for the next few centuries.

I’ve rediscovered my passion for Satisfactory once again. In my last save, I’ve made the mistake of rebuilding many of my larger factories in quick succession and the repetitive feeling and frustration I’ve caused myself sucked out the energy to play for quite a while now.

Now I’ve started a new save to see what’s new in 1.0. Semi-automatable biomass burners won me over right away. This time, I plan on not overplanning again. I’m already planning the planning prevention plan preparations.

Realistically, I don’t think so either. Pessimistically, I give it until Jan 1st, 2030.

Who knows, maybe we’ll see something like a Steam Engine processor by 2030, hah!

Well fudge me sideways. Every day is a school day.

They’ve all got LPDDR5, so yeah, you’re unfortunately right. It feels kinda weird having to consider the 7000 and 8000-series last gen already; true as it is, though.

I really don’t know where you’re looking because I only see that in business-class laptops and even then not all of them have soldered RAM.

And I’m already counting the ones with one expansion slot with the soldered bunch.

Of course, if you paid attention only to HP, Dell and Lenovo, then I’d see why you’d think so. But beyond those brands, you don’t have that soldered nonsense everywhere. At the very least, you have things like Clevo, Framework and the like to sell you laptops without soldered ram.

I bet there are even websites that let you filter laptop models without soldered ram. Personally, I only know about Germany-based websites like that, though.

Absolutely yes. Which I’d also assume to be part of the reason brands coming around with memes are always so late to the party. The legal issues and getting the consent of all copyright holders (if even known at that point) is going to be a pain in any legal department’s ass. I doubt it would be much different for a private meme exhibit.

Of course, by 2100, there would be a historical context to view it from.

I wasn’t expecting a serious answer but you’re absolutely right!

Time to get the Meme Collage of Alexandria going.

If that somehow catches on fire, you can at least re-establish the phrase “This meme is lit”.

Don’t worry, Threads Pro will have you covered for an ad reduction for 3.99/mo.! And Threads Pro Plus for 5.99/mo. will get rid of them all by 2030!

I actually struggle with the same mental image. Anybody born after 2000 still goes to school in my mind.

I can’t describe the reaction I always have inside when I consciously realize that post-2000 kids can actually be adults. Not just because I realize how screwed my perception of time is but also because I suddenly feel old.

You know, if they aim not to repeat a Cities Skylines 2, that is entirely valid. I’m just a bit salty they eradicated the native Linux ports.

Whew, I’ve thought this was a photo of my chest type freezer, for a split second!

I’m happy I have y’all because I can satisfy my curiosity sparked by clickbait titles without ever giving those a click.

Seriously, the digest alone looks like the full thing is an absolute non-article.

I’d actually argue that most shareholders do know what a bad move it is but are willing to stay around for it because the average consumer has proven to begrudgingly live with adverts everywhere. Amazom gets away with it on Prime, mobile ads are even worse, and Youtube gets away with it despite the outrage… I wonder whether the ads would also lead to an ad-free Windows 365 subscription for consumers analogous to Youtube Premium.

Now I can’t not think about this.

To be fair, you may not always want a permanent fix for everything. Mostly because the most permanent solution will always be a temporary one. :v

Oh neat, AI can imitate my internal monologue while writing a business e-mail!

Fuck it, G-Ball
