  • What are you talking about? Microsoft is charging for HEIF, HEIC, and looking to do it with AV1 and AVIF. Intel started development of EFI in the titanium days as a new standard for servers running unix before it became an open standard. Microsoft wasn’t the only one involved in the standard but apple, redhat, hp, Intel, amd, and a laundry list of hardware/software manufacturers.

    Most all the innovation happens in enterprise space with servers running unix/Linux. User operating systems are an afterthought when these features are initially conceived.


  • I guess you had to be there, he has some very fun videos. His garbage time videos are a lot of fun if you like watching people mess around with shit boxes. And if you’re into drums, he has the drum thing too.

    I guess if you’re boring and like watching others play games you could just play yourself. There’s hello, I’m gaming. He tries to make it more interesting but it’s gaming so.

    That’s a lesson I learned switching to macos for a few years. After spending that much I basically had no choice but to learn to adapt.

    It did make it a lot easier to switch to Linux later on because I’ve already abandoned a workflow and a set of apps once already.






  • I didn’t watch the video but people are going to switch when they’re ready. It’s like smokers, you can’t force them. Just be open about it if they ask and they might gain interest in it. Don’t be too overbearing and be open about the issues you run into when they happen. Remember both Mac os and Windows can be buggy and frustrating at times too.

    My mother wanted to switch when she learned that you could play games on it and saw me use it for a week give or take, so I helped her. She’s happily using fedora on her desktop and Linux mint on her ancient laptop now. Oddly enough gnome is less confusing than cinnamon to her. Maybe she’s just use to the smartphone layout.
