Neither of my old Windows boxes will run 11, so they won't run 12 either. And I'm oh so broken up about it.

I'm pretty sure the only of those companies Musk actually started were Zip2 and The Boring Co.

This is the biggest reason for me. Though I rarely look further than F-Droid for anything.

That sort of thing is part of the reason I always want a phone that can side load applications. Not that there aren't end runs around apps from 3rd party app stores, but at the least it would be an arms race. And my next phone will probably be a Fair Phone.

I consumed the last 80ish% of The Martian in one barely interrupted (personally irresponsible) session. It hooked me hard and I couldn't put it down. I've had a fondness for novels written serially ever since.

My HS put networked computers in every classroom a couple years before I graduated (so '95 or '96). They put predictable passwords on all the teacher accounts, and all teacher accounts had write access to network shares. Those of us who figured that out stashed copies of the Doom WAD file (the one file too big to fit on a single 3.5" floppy) all over the network under different names. So even after they figured out we were in and started forcing teachers to change their password, there were still a dozen or more copies spread over the network.

Student access was enough to copy the WAD file locally over the 100mbit ethernet if you knew where to look. And we all carried the rest of the game around on floppy. So any time we got access to the computers we were playing doom. We also passed around floppies with different mod files. The chicken launcher was everyone's favorite.

I'd like to think it was intentional, but if that were the case I think it would be "Cafè Coffè"

I was 12 when the first Linux kernel was released. Ah, what could have been...

You can just need to switch them between editble and read-only to save the hassle. But I have 14 on-going projects right now, it's a giant pain to keep within that limit.

I made the jump using youtube tutorials but it's been a few years so I don't remember which to recommend. One of the reasons I keep using fusion is that it's ability to move back and forth through design history so so well made it easier to overcome my early screw ups.
