Linux.

Who knows how long that computer has been there, but if it’s been a while and still has something less than Windows 10, nothing will work.

You’ve reached the end of Linux.

This was my entry into Linux, and love it so far. My Windows 7 computer has generally been so snappy. Even without an SSD and only 4G in RAM it starts faster than my Windows 11, 32GB, i7 laptop.

MX Linux is simple and just works. The XFCE version is pretty light and snappy and the utilities, which it shares with AntiX, just work.

I’m a newbie at Linux, because my personal, very old 2012 computer just can’t work Windows 7…Windows was eating up all resources. I got MX Linux in a USB (2.0) and it just runs in that old hardware.

Ended up switching to AntiX, because it manages memory even better (runs with as little as 256 MB of RAM) and it recognized everything. AntiX is like installing Debian with a bit of utilities loaded. If you add the FT10/Tint2 bar, it feels as if you have a Desktop Manager, instead of a Windows Manager.

My 4GB RAM, old AMD64, Radeon computer, with an old rotational Hard Drive, just goes. Starts faster than my Laptop computer with 32GB RAM, Intel I7 with an SDD and it just has a good feeling about it.

MX Linux on a USB and persistence is working on any other computer I have. And you can focus on the important stuff: using your computer, instead of messing around with the setup constantly.

Is there an equivalent in SysVInit?

What are you talking about? Russia invades entire countries! They don’t give a shit about embassies. That’s for show.

And in this case, the question is: What is Mexico going to do about it?

Infiltrating Narcos and cuddling them is an invasion of Ecuador. Especially when there’s no embassy, hospital or safe house the narcos will respect.

This Mexican President has been one of the most corrupt and inept presidents in Mexican history. Allied with organized crime and purposeful in his approach to corrupt and destroy the Mexican Army.

He’s also not in good terms with the Industry leaders that could do an embargo with Ecuador. A country that has been infiltrated severely by Mexican narcos, who were also trying to influence their elections by assassinating candidates.

Dude has also criticized the US, Mexico’s most important partner and a strong backer to make Mexico influential in Latin America.

There’s nothing AMLO can do but to make symbolic gestures.

Give this man a Go-Pro and a YouTube channel!

Just enough to run Windows 12.

This is the way.

Why did they install Windows 11?

@JustZ

Me too!

Beg to disagree. See: “Amish Mafia.”

Much like with Katrina, Acapulco has been completely destroyed.

Unlike Katrina, there’s absolutely zero support for the people of Acapulco. The Army or the Navy didn’t get there. There were no shelters. No food distribution, no local or state government.

While the Red Cross was able to get there, the government is now saying they won’t let humanitarian relief get there, and only the army will help…of course, the army wasn’t even able to get the president to Acapulco, because the idiot decided to go by land…and hit stuck in mud.

Homes in Acapulco are not insured, and the fund for disasters that the coincided to have to help in situations like this has been depleted.

I don’t condone stealing…but there are no food supplies and people needed to get something. The looters that took TVs, and such…personally I thought it was stupid…and then I realized something: In a video someone yelled: “Walmart is insured…”. These people know they have lost it all, and they will never get it back. There ways of providing for their family are gone. As a human, I don’t blame them from wanting to get back something…I think it’s kind of dumb…but now I get why they did it. Walmart will get paid, but their life’s are ruined.

There are choices. You don’t like Apple Pay, get an Android phone.

Apple is manufacturing the phones and creating the ecosystem associated to the phone.

Because they manufacture the whole thing, they may get away with it as a hardware feature, which they protect for security and privacy reasons, which is their sales pitch to their customers.

Apple doesn’t sell its OS to other manufacturers.

Google does. And because they do that, they have to let other manufacturers have access to the OS features that manage payments through .

Android phones have been dinged with vulnerabilities through NFC technology.

Microsoft has been dinged with anti-Trust losses because they forced their features on other devices and quenched other manufacturers to do what they wanted. Apple doesn’t deal with other manufacturers. Apple doesn’t force customers to only do Apple Pay for transactions. Sure, it’s a feature they offer, but you can use Venmo, PayPal, Zelle, etc. with your phone. Even Google Pay. Just not with the phone’s hardware. They don’t even force you to use their card to pay.

In fact, Google and Samsung could use the payment system from Apple, if they create a bank and a card. But no, they can’t design software that could create vulnerabilities to Apple devices…and if that’s Apple’s competitive advantage, why should they give it away?

Lobsters also probably love the tan they get, and how nicely relaxed their muscles feel while they’re at their hot tub.

Mexico’s constitution always allowed for abortions in cases of rape or danger to the mother or fetus.
