Couple of years back I got a PR at work that used a block of code that read a CSV, used some stream method to covert it to binary to then feed it to pandas to make a dataframe. I don’t remember the exact steps it did, but was just crazy when pd.read_csv existed.

On a hunch I pasted the code in google and found an exact match on overflow for a very weird use case on very early pandas.

I’m lucky and if people send obvious shit at work I can just cc their manager, but I fell for the volunteers at large FOSS projects, or even paid employees.

Install 3rd party OS to disable

That’s the first step

You only prove the price of RAM on the US, while complaining about US centrism.

I’m not trying to convince you, or disprove you. I’m just letting you show the absurdity of what you say, so that nobody is fooled by you. In that sense, this last message is enough to close this. Thanks.

I’m quoting Fox because the other mentioned US. Blame them for US centrism, but then please update your incomes and costs to somewhere like Somalia, or even Greece. But that would be too woke or something?

Even if most people can, that doesn’t mean that if you can’t is because of bad decisions. That means being homeless is because of bad decisions. That means that those already on debt for medical issues made a bad decision.

For a lot of people spending those 16 dollars on RAM is the bad decision.

BTW, median income is absurd. You can have income and still spend on living expenses more than you earn. Now please tell me people needs to move to rural Ohio to maw grass to buy 8 gigs of RAM.

Edit: somehow I’ve struck a nerve with people from programing.dev who created the account on the same day, never commented anything and saw my comment within a few minutes of one another. I think I’ve struck a nerve :)

“No doubt they are always connected but I double down anyway”.

One could mow a few lawns and have enough cash to keep up with the modern requirements of an 0S.

Now that’s not just reddit, thats Fox News levels disconnect with reality.

Poverty = life choices is the most reddit I’ve seen in Lemmy in a long while

Same. Got XP and Vista from the university, license for Vista allowed to update to 7, 10 (never used 8)… Now I use LTSC + massgrave activation, but technically I have a 10 license.

Actually, one more use case is my SO. Can’t/won’t use Linux, and I’m not fighting. But needs an up to date OS on the ancient lappet laptop, so 10 IOT it is.

Great in the sense I don’t have to bother for 6 years for a partition I will use less than 24 hours over that period of time haha.

So far I’ve used it to scan once (for some reason that day skan decided to not work) and to make a windows install USB for my SO.

I tried Expedition 33 thinking performance issues were a Linux thing by no, it’s just like that.

So it’s a long term unlikely to be used OS, and for that long support is great.

It gives you 6 years to transition to a better OS. Or to become CEO of Microslop and improve things.

It’s honestly great, even for me who only boot into windows once every few months.

Just bought a second hand pixel 6 to test Graphene. Let’s see what Motorola does and how Linux phones do in the future.

No, but it you missed so much what I said the first time I don’t think spelling it again will help.

A bit of a dishonest question, but wouldn’t that argument lead to minors being able to buy alcohol “for their parents”? We are now shifting the responsibility to the stores, not the parents.

I have my reasons to think it’s not a fair comparison, but I’ll like to hear other’s.

Doesn’t CGNat obscure the user true location in the same way? And what kind of VPN are we talking about? Company with exit node in the country? Commercial ones only?

They use OSM as source for maps, yes.

Not sure how much they add, aside from offline functionality.

Other apps add extra data sources.

Irrelevant. They need to comply with the laws of the market they are selling at.

Specially fitting that one FOSS alternative to this one is openSHOT

My newly least useful fact is that knowledge and the search for it is an end unto itself, so all facts are useful to learn and know.

AFAIK torrent. But I’ve been torrenting all my life without port forward and I have all the seasons from my favorite Linux distros,.

That’s what the priest told me when I saw him going into the brothel. Doing God’s work
