I understand its a marketing term. But context matters and when its done with the tech bro chuckle/stammer and wink....its an innuendo...

I mean..tone matters here. Look at how its stated.

Its an innuendo. 5 nines is basically impossible, not even FAANG can really hit it 100%.

Not as uncommon as you would think. What normally do then is use the 6 month releases until the next LTS

I have been using this hub. Works fine in Linux and windows.

I also use this usb dongle for my Xbox controller. It works fine in Linux. I really should try playing a few games on Linux.

I’m curious if findings do come out. Would YouTube cancel or demonitize them?

For all I know the product is in fact shit, but because of their methodology, plus all that they did afterwards, I can’t trust that they would ever produce an honest review of the product.

Or any product for that matter.

I dont really follow linus, mainly beceause I never really got the appeal overall. But i do play games and stuff so his content does cross my path here and there, but maybe I only see him during drama times like this. But this whole puppy dog face apology thing has to wear thin after a while..

I mean it seems like a dog and pony show to me and I hardly ever watch his content. How many times do you have to do stuff like this, apologize, etc then rinse repeat before people start catching on.

I was just thinking about how theres almost no gradient between what makes you a "quirky and fun small business" which they want to act like and "oh shit better put on our IBM corporate hats and make another video"

Yeah. Like I said, i have no idea what the conditions are. Maybe its Cloudflare threatening/applying pressure and LW has been getting smacked with DDOS etc.

But maybe not too. I strikes me as a excuse but honestly i dont know all the details or variable and frankly i dont care all that much.

Yeah im similar. I still use 1080 monitors and just 2 at a regular workspace. Its about the perfect DPI for reading text. Things like 4k just make it harder or you have to bump up the fractional scaling, in which case why the more pixels?

Im fine to keep it to a laptop monitor when im mobile, and 2+laptop monitor for email when at a desk.
