I’ve found a better way to use Amazon: not using it and fuck you, Bezos.

“Read once bookmark”. Problem solved.

Now imagine having google, bing, qwant, duck duck go and ecosia bookmarked.

Even a Commodore 64 can be a server depending on the service it has to give.

Until some browser can make pages with Python, maybe.

I think the people here is not “only pro-Linux” but pro-OS-freedom. I guess most off us wouldn’t find a problem if someone changes Windows or MacOS for *BSD, Haiku or any other free OS.

Do you really think a good idea is letting a newcomer try Gentoo?

You should read the opinion of Stephen King about that precise point. The short version: “I’d write books even if it was illegal”.

Torrent means you download and also upload to others when you have some parts.

Search is very different to create something.

You might not remember but decades ago Microsoft was almost split in two. But then it came to pass that George Bush “won” the elections. And the case was dismissed.

In the US justice system, money talks.

I don’t know the rest but I hate the spending of resources to feed the AI datacenters. It’s not normal building a nuclear powerplant to feed ONE data center.

Do you remember the “press any key to exit”? Someone asked where is the “any” key.

Have you considered using a Raspberry Pi 5?
