Dunno what else to tell ya cause they are moving to open source, but hey googles free if you want to find out for yourself

4% of US alone is 12 million people.

If even 25% of them decide hardware purchases based on driver support, 3 million sales isn't ignorable.

(The number of PCs sold globally per year is similarly 300,000,000, so even then theyd lose out on 12 million potential sales YEARLY)

The market is also pretty shit post-covid, so I'm sure every hardware company is dying for a way to boost sales metrics.

With the linux server market share and recent ai boom, theyd have to be more than just blind deaf and dumb to not release linux drivers.

Maybe this was true back in like the early 2000's?

Jesus Christ, and we consider ourselves above 'slave labour' when most of those people are probably just there to get a meal. Worst part is all these cuts are just to help Amazon's bottom line.

Ive only ever worked with smaller boats or electrical rigs pulled out of larger freighters, from that view alone it blows my mind half those boats are even afloat.

I would be suprised if anything past some 1970's DC sensors to be honest.

The ships are built by capitalists, theyre about as cheap as ships get

Yeah, it was a bit of a growing pain tradeoff to accommodate high performance enterprise clusters, but kinda only sucks for the small user environment.

Still pretty impressive the same software can serve both those markets though.

Nextcloud doesnt really like when you do this, it stores file locations in its database and hand manages them.

Could work for a local instance though if you set up a cron job to rescan the dir every night or so

Or we could just like shield radiation, and provide oxygen/gravity.

Relying on evolution for this sounds like it'd take a couple millennium longer than just like a spinning slab of concrete with a rebreather inside.

Linux is really only a thing because it ISNT Unix (which macos is). Theyre more related than windows because they're both POSIX compatible, but share essentially no codebase.

A rooted android phone on the other hand is just plain ol linux compiled for ARM, with some custom google jazz. It utilises a lot of Linux components like cgroups and SELinux - commonly found on desktop Linux (especially with containers).

Its not really that important in a broad sense to be honest, but it definitely makes android a Linux distro.

Android takes up 47% of the usage share of all computers, I'd be surprised if VLC managed to overcome even just android.

Mayyybe in america this would be true, but I'd still be suprised

Seems a bit biased to ignore 47% of the global OS userbase with android.

Even if VLC was great for ghetto windows, android alone almost has double its userbase.
