I ran it 2003-2006ish.
Having a package manager that updates online was a game changer for Linux distributions.
I had been using slackware for 6 years prior, and there was no real update path. Best case you'd just get the latest release on CD and install it over your (hopefully) separate root partiton.
Conpiling all your stuff sounded like a good idea in the age of the architecture options at the time. Alpha, Crusoe, PowerPC, SPARC and MIPS were all viable options.
I wonder if those DevOps cost $72M/h.
Otherwise I have an idea that might save AWS some money.
I have two machines running the latest kernels on EndeavourOS. One with a Radeon RX 7900 XTX has no issues.
The other one has a Radeon 6650 XT, which since a week or two ago starts getting kworker threads stuck while throwing errors about fence queues. Load can go up to the hundreds (while there's no real load, but just blocked threads), until the machine crashes.
As I recall there was an amdgpu firmware update around the time it started happening, but the changelog on the amdgpu kernel driver hints at solving similar issues.
Back in these days you'd install your distribution and stay there until the next major release. There were no online software repositiories for updates.
And exploits were plentiful. It was an easier time if you were up for mischief.
A mistake is when your foot slips and you hit the accelerator instead of the brake.
She made the choice to take pink cocaine and get behind the wheel. Choices have consequences. These choices endangered and killed people. Some rehabilitation closed off from the rest of society sounds in order.
Apparently she was already driving with a suspended license, so there seems to be a history of bad choices.
You guys have your own basement?
I'd also bring in the ripple effect of this. We know there's not enough children being born.
There's not going to be a workforce to pay our pensions when we get old. I'm less likely to spend my money on a dependant, when I should be buying property as a commodity so that I can have means to live at old age.
Well.. last time I bought a commodore I got the full schematic of the computer in the box. And the user manual taught me programming.
I didn't know how to operate it when I bought it, but I learned fast.
If you're coming from a feature phone - it's great!
If you're coming from a modern smartphone, you probably won't be happy with it as a daily driver.
I'm voting with my feet, but carrying two devices.
Maemo on the N900 was close, but MeeGo on the N9 was there. The Ovi store even had the hot apps of the era.
Fuck Microsoft for killing that dream.
Yes, but now you get all the bad news streamed straight to you 24/7.
Previously you would have to pick up a newspaper or turn on the TV at the right time to hear about it.
