Oh, I thought you were talking about the physical keyboard button, apparently the software copilot button appeared around May 2023, about seven months earlier

when I was 13 or 14 because I saw the Windows 11 copilot button

That button was announced January 2024.

I think the first Linux I installed was probably Ubuntu somewhere around 5.04-6.06, I would have been about 15 at the time.

PopOS should be able to do this since System76 makes it partly to be preinstalled on computers they sell at retail. According to some anonymous poster on reddit, it will prompt for a new user creation on the next boot after deleting the user account.

Those cheap emulator handhelds run linux out of the box with built in screens, batteries, and controller inputs

Ubuntu, circa 2005ish I think. Played with all the *buntu derivatives back then, went back to windows for a while, then tried Manjaro, found it frustratingly unstable, and now I use PopOS.

Xournal++ is good for taking notes with a stylus and annotating PDFs, I’ve used it for years.

I run PopOS on my Lenovo Flex, it supports the stylus and all other hardware out of the box. The only tweak I had to do was in firefox’s about:config to make it treat touch inputs differently than mouse inputs.

Nobody reads the articles

Well, the second sentence of the linked post is:

This is very much a developer-focused board to help accelerate maturing the software ecosystem around RISC-V, so we recommend waiting for future RISC-V products if you’re looking for a consumer-ready experience.

So I’m gonna go with not very.

Make sure you put “by the way I use arch” at the end of all your posts

Won’t happen under capitalism. Which is just another reason capitalism needs to go.

The pronouns are right there in his name. And he was obviously referring to Kamala’s promise to keep arming the genocidal zionist entity so it can continue its genocide against the Palestinian people.

That was Sisko, in “For the Cause”

I haven’t run an OS off a spinning disk for over a decade but I still remember how big the leap in general usability was when switching to SSD

They should take it to their captain

The unspoken thing about the Prime Directive is that a Federation Captain’s most solemn duty is deciding when to ignore it, and the same goes for the Temporal Prime Directive.

4X games don’t really work on controllers.

EDIT: apparently Stellaris did eventually come to consoles three years after its initial release so it’s not totally impossible but I sure wouldn’t want to play Stellaris without a mouse or without mods

It came out in October, it won’t come to consoles.

The meat Federation citizens eat isn’t really an animal product. In the Orville, it’s actually made explicit that killing an animal for food is regarded as tantamount to murder in the Union.

The situation with Windows and DOS is as if ChromeOS took over so decisively that Linux became nothing more than a historical curiosity.

No it’s worse. Tying the OS and GUI together to the extent they are in modern post-95 Windows is a major cause of the learned helplessness OP is talking about
