True, although Oracle provides Infrastructure to businesses and developers. They’re a necessary evil, whereas as EA publishes… video games. Products whose primary purpose is to be enjoyed?

I know I’m not their target demographic. I feel sorry for FIFA and Sims fans.

Alternative title: EA cancelled the only game they were working on that I was interested in playing

That’s why you should always buy retro on GOG.

It wasn’t retro when I bought it though

When you stream you’re still downloading. I prefer to have finer grain control over my buffer zone for when I’m offline.

It’s easier to type than posting a picture of an update button, though.

sudo apt update && apt upgrade

I use RSSHub to generate feeds for my subscriptions, then use this trick on Thunderbird to open video links directly with yt-dlp.

I use LocalSend to move the videos (and other files) to VLC.

I have a system involving multiple devices. I download the videos with yt-dlp on my computer, then send them to my phone for mobile watching.

Hardware was definitely the issue. What got me to first install Linux was my wireless card just randomly stopped working. People were recommending that I do a full reinstall of Vista to get internet working again. I installed Ubuntu instead and never looked back.

I started with Ubuntu, switched to Mint and finally settled on Arch.

That 40% isn’t for Windows Server, is it?

XP was alright, but I’m mostly just nostalgic for the aesthetic of 95/98/2000

Vista was the reason I switched to Linux
