Don't know how this could be implemented in a good way (so FB etc do not get access to important identity information), but trying to limit social media for kids below 13 is a fantastic idea.
One could wish the adults/parents would limit this themselves, but sadly this is seldom the case. For some reason it seems most parents really are clueless to the level of harm imposed by social media to their kids?!
Agree. I am forced to use OneDrive when I do consultation work for one of my customers, still works like crap compared to Dropbox with slow syncing etc.
Maybe I just have a different view of pricing, but I find €120 a year for 2TB with unlimited versions, ability to share files of any size, rock solid syncing on all my devices etc to be extremely cheap!
“Tipping is about making sure the people who are performing that service for you are getting paid what they’re owed” - This sums up the entire problem with tipping. It's just simply wrong / false.
Actually tipping is making sure that the owner of a café can get away with paying a too low salary to the employee.
So best advice: don't tip! You are keeping alive a system where it is up to you, the customer, to (maybe) ensure the employee is making a decent amount of money. That is flipping the issue of money on the head. This should be a matter between the employee and the business, using a contract, you know, like every other normal business relationship works!
Awesome demo. Reminds me of the days where I coded the good old 6510 chip while enjoying SID tunes. I spent almost a year of my youth coding a game called "Timezone", which someone actually put on YouTube: https://youtu.be/nHLmxATNl0w
Those were the days of late night assembler debugging
Ubuntu is truly awesome as a completely free product, and a huge number of people would be perfectly fine running this, as they basically just do browsing, Facebook, write and few documents etc., however the majority of these people still use Windows as it's pre-installed on their sub $700 laptops (clever move by Microsoft).
Having said that, Windows just have SO much more software, making that OS a preferred choice for most people who use their computer for more "advanced" tasks.
Linux, still, offers only a tiny fraction of the software available for Windows. Generally the quality of software for Windows is MUCH higher (an often comparison by Linux fans when I mention Photoshop is Gimp, which makes me wonder if these people simply just are used to low quality software, or just don't know better?).
It's not a choice between Linux and Microsoft, who cares about the OS (the point of a OS is to be invisible anyway), it's a choice between the software which can solve your problem / work / task.. And in that light, Linux is still lightyears behind Microsoft.
