If people moved to Linux

When users connect to their organization’s WiFi…

You think my employer would let me use Linux? Creeping on employees is how management feels important.

I wouldn’t use Teams personally unless under extreme duress. Unfortunately professionally it is the norm.

Did the article link change? Why are there comments about Hegseth when this article is completely unrelated to any DOD bullshit? Are the bots loose on anything mentioning OpenAI?

Great to know! Does the pen still generally work for writing/notes? Also any clue if things work well with the newer generations?

Last I dug into Linux on the SP, it was a 3-4 generation lag on stable compatibility. My tablet is nearing EOL (because the charge port sucks and mine doesnt support USB-C charging as a fallback). If I replace it I don’t love replacing it with something used, 4 years old, that may have a short life.

Touch inputs can be a little messy, driver support for closed source hardware (e.g., MS Surface) is understandably rocky, and I’ve had bad experience with battery longevity especially on open source hardware.

My 6-year-old SP battery still has ~70% capacity, which is teriffic. I have had other laptops lose 90% of their capacity after just a year or two, so I’m skeptical of the tablet market.

I’m not saying good Linux tablets don’t exist, just that I’m looking for recommendations since the waters feel murkier to me.

I’m on the hunt for a replacement for my Surface, but sure as shit not getting anything with copilot. Curious what alternatives are out there.

Linux options seem a little light on the tablet front.

Guess it’s time for everybody to find some grass to touch.

An API that at best allowed a small number is users to access millions of hours of content in a relatively short window of time sure as shit feels like a leak to me.

Any carbon it takes in will be released exactly back to where it was.

Except it won’t be. Combustion is not a perfect CxHy O2 > CO2 + H2O reaction. Theres a bunch of other side reactions happening, NOx, unburned hydrocarbons, particulate matter, carbon monoxide. There are lots of challenges to continuing to utilize hydrocarbon fuels, especially in mobile/small scale applications where you can’t clean the exhaust stream.
