I had a net top thing from asus that had worse specs than that running fine a few years ago on AntiX. It was just used as a thin client mostly but did the job.

There's an outage on aws and various other services which started at the same time. Have a look on downdetector

I guess the point is that its complexity is overrated, but still definitely not 'simple'.

It's literally a marketing term for a bunch of structured algorithms at this stage - not some sentient witchcraft

I got some weird reverse vertigo looking up from the inside when I was there, it was insanely high. Incredible place though.

Davinci resolve? Its Linux support is a bit obtuse, but it works.

iPad / tablet, and applying for jobs can easily be done on a phone. My wife works at a high school - half the kids can't even use a mouse properly,and don't understand minimizing a window etc.

She had to teach someone what the enter button did yesterday..... They were using space bar to get to a new line. I shit you not.

The main issue to solve is kids not having access to a computer at home, whether it be lack of incentive or money. Most people don't even own a laptop anymore, so the only computer time they get is in a school setting.

Once the majority of schools have a system in place for most homework to be done on a PC, then there may be some creative ways to incentivise more PC adoption... again. It's like we've gone back to the early 90s again where only kids who were really interested in computing knew anything about it.

Linux is bad at audio therefore it's bad at everything? Interesting. Fair point about audio though, if you're doing anything to do with that then stay clear of Linux. Raspberry pi audio is bad even by Linux standards, lol

I've honestly had better luck with retro games on Linux than windows. Half the time lutris can auto install the game with minimal input, and patch the games etc - and even with abandonware titles I just pointed proton at them after installation and no issues.

If you're on older integrated graphics however, I will admit it can be a lot more problematic.
