He has enough money to pay an actual army

Mine have hinges that open, you can remove them by pushing up to remove from the hinges. My parents have one with magnets, but i don’t recommend it. The magnets get rusty, and they aren’t that well attached, some screens fell and broke with stronger wind.

No, bluetooth is not better. Bluetooth has latency which is bad for anything that needs realtime audio, like video games or any kind of live performance. It also runs on 2.4 like every other electronic Wireless devices making it prone to interference. And it’s yet another device to keep charged all the time.

USB C is also inferior because you need dongles which increase complexity of your setup, it’s more prone to failures. Like audio cutting off every x minutes because connection is just slightly loose or other electronic gremlins. I’m saying this having just had a gig and the MD’s phone we relied on for the metronome started acting up during the performance not recognizing the dongle until a reboot.

Audio jacks were simple, analog, worked perfectly fine and delivered high quality audio. What we have now is overengineered slop that is less reliable and more expensive.

You could say they are… Perplexed.

I use powerpoint all the time. Impress is very far behind in terms of usability and basic functionality. But I’m hopeful it will get better as adoption increases.

That’s 188k euro that can be used to improve the quality of open source software.

Also, agriculture is awful… You can’t make a living unless you have a lot of product to sell. You can’t have a lot of product to sell unless you mechanize. The equipment is prohibitively expensive, so it’s only worth doing it if you have a lot of land. And even then, to get decent yields, you need to sow at a specific time, harvest at a specific time, use expensive fertilizers, use expensive machines that can reduce wasting seed or fertilizer.

Even worse, you are at the mercy of wheather. Which, lately, has been shit. And everyone is trying to fuck you, from assholes controlling the markets, the assholes who make and fix the equipment (like John Deere), the asshole neighbor who let their animals escape, and mother nature with pests, diseases, and bad weather.

Every mistake can be costly. Broken equipment is expensive to repair. You might need to build expensive silos to store your product and sell it when the market is more favorable. Expensive because they have to keep things dry and free of pests, mice and rats love cereals. Harvesting when the cereals are too wet is bad, because it can rot and grow into plants, and drying is expensive (but you might be forced to do it because the weather is bad and you want to avoid a complete loss).

And when the economy goes boom, they will ask their friends in the White House for a bailout

You can take ownership of a lot of it. Thanks to GDPR, major platforms offer ways to export data like photos, videos, activity on their platforms, messages etc. Store locally first, avoid over reliance on online platforms for safekeeping your data.

Also, we need to fight to keep ownership of digital media while we still can. Buy movies and music on physical media so they keep making them. Buy physical books. Buy from DRM free platforms like GoG. As convenient as it may be, avoid over reliance on streaming services.

And of course, make backups of anything you care about. Only you can keep your data safe. Online services will only keep your data as long as they can exploit it to make money.

It probably still uses rdp, but doesn’t let you connect to your own instances, just the cloud ones.

I seriously don’t understand why anyone would use it. It’s basically a platform that copies images from the internet and lets you bookmark them. Something browsers had since the 90s. Or you could just download the pictures to a folder, so you can see all the thumbnails.

What’s worse is that half the population actually voted for these losers. After the losers published a document describing exactly what they are going to do. We are surrounded by idiots.

Same in my case. But we were also learning c++ using Turbo C++ (the msdos one with the blue UI) in the 2010. Everything about high school was 15-20 years out of date. The OS (windows xp) was probably the newest thing on those computers.

When I was in high school, computers had Deep Freeze setup, because kids would constantly break the OS and download malware. It’s a software that resets the C drive to a known state on every reboot. You might consider using something similar on classroom workstations.

Also, it might be worth learning about network booting, automating the Linux installer and ansible to install things on every machine at once and automate configuration work.

Personally, I actually enjoyed it. It had that 90s nostalgic vibe, and I liked it.

However, the renewed 25 years later season felt like Lynch was mocking the audience (or was high on something). The season was boring as fck, story was bad and made no sense. None of the loose ends from the original show were resolved. The acting was so bad, I actually wanted to give it up after the first episode. And he didn’t even give us what we wanted to see more of… Detective Cooper. Instead we got braindead cooper and evil doppleganger cooper for all but the last few minutes of the season. And for some weird reason, every episode ended on some bad recording of a live song that had nothing to do with the show.

I gave up on it once, and then continued at a later date. I felt that the mid seasons were a bit of a grind, but the last season goes up to 11 with an extremely satisfying ending.

I watched the first 2 seasons or so. It felt like all the clichés from all the zombie movies put together in a single show, but worse.

While I agree this is a shit thing to do, I am looking forward to the influx of cheap hardware.

Especially dangerous if it’s a high voltage wire. Even standing close you can become the least resistant path to earth.
