they are already required to publish the kernel source code for the device, so porting an alternative system should be possible, and this directive might make it illegal to lock down the software from being replaced. but there is still a loophole around drivers, as those are implemented through a "hardware abstraction layer" on android.
Windows being a centrally controlled OS should be better at this than Linux and yet they aren't!
that's what I was thinking too, but to be fair historically linux wasn't a GUI centered world, so there were not much core system GUIs that could become obsolete
going down the layers there's more and more where it is not true anymore. the writer is even showing with screenshots that the menu in 11 was updated. does he want those features removed? or completely redesigned just for the sake of being different?
seriously it reads like someone who has regret leaving the company, admiring all the fantastic innovations of windows 11 and complaining there is not more.
only atomic distros do that, and it has its downsides. most distros still only keep a single system partition, but if it does snapshots before update then it's not a big deal if something goes wrong
a bad configuration, mostly. people love to bash systemd but this is sensible, that it does not outright kill services that aren't ready for that. if your computer shuts diwn slowly because of that, that is a configuration issue, that either a service or a mount does not stop cleanly.
its more to do with the fact that until recently linux distros did not have a desktop pc centered idea on how to do updates. but distros started to support offline updates, so you can install updates in a safer way, while the system is not running.
a major difference is that linux offline updates allows you to just shut down, without taking time with updates.
sometimes it's not that easy
the savings on operational costs will go directly to the shareholders
we should ask AI!
and the mandatory microphone with cellular connection, for automated emergency calls or something like that
it may be 100x more acceptable, but 100 times 0 is still 0.

not so sure about that. fediverse servers could end up fined for not applying these labels

that's what makes it better. more communities would be easier to solve than on a brand new platform that doesn't have any already.

databases may still care
oh, I thought you mean skipping the timeout that one time
interesting. It's so weird they can get away with manufacturing counterfeit documents
how do you bypass it? didn't know its a thing
possibly they ship a bad systemd unit config for their package
then the other half of the userbase will complain

can you fine those who fake official stamps?
