Sorry but of course they got banned. If they didn’t then the government would be sending the message that military sites are fair game and suddenly undermining the UK’s military preparedness would be a legitimate form of protest. If this had happened in the US they’d probably be facing the death penalty for treason.

The house I’m renting and the house I own are both around 1930, which is considered modern in the UK. The house I grew up in is about 1800.

Just something to bear in mind regarding OneDrive; the unofficial clients don’t have access to certain APIs that the official clients use meaning that it only syncs every 5 minutes at best. As far as I know there’s nothing you can do about it.

Linux is way easier than it was even 10 years ago and many games run better on Linux than they do on Windows. There’s gaming distros but I’m not sure what the benefit is other than the built-in NVIDIA drivers. I just game on Fedora. You need to enable Proton stuff in the settings and you’re off.

Let me know if you figure out how to get UO working on Wine. I have to use the online client.

I rushed to the comments when I saw a 1.6ghz CPU being called low end but I see OPs already been dealt with. I remember the first ever 1ghz CPU being an overclocked nitrogen cooled AMD Athlon. Me and my mates were all talking about it when it happened.

I think if you wiped everyone’s prior experience and knowledge and all that stuff, like just wiped the slate clean and presented all the OSes for what they are and let everyone choose which on they got to use, things would land pretty much where they are right now. Linux is generally way easier than it was 10 years ago but it’s still far too tricky for most normal users. If it’s too difficult for them to use then they effectively don’t have a computer and it’s useless to them. Linux may be free but after dropping £1000+ on a laptop people don’t mind so much paying an extra £70 for the software.

The two most important things to normal people are good looks and ease of use and Linux comes in last in both of those races.

Linux isn’t for normal people, it’s made by nerds for nerds.

I have done in the past but it’s not a common thing. It really something I did when I was a kid. In the last 10 years I’ve actually done a bit of sleepwalking. It only really happens when I’m drunk but it’s always been quite fun as I usually just hear the stories in the morning. I’m not just wandering around aimlessly, there’s usually some kind of logic going on. You know when you’re in a dream and you have some kind of weird backstory to what you’re doing but you don’t know how you know it, you just know. I’m kind of walking around slightly conscious of where I am but with some weird backstory. Most of the time I just think it’s daytime and I’m doing something, like going to work.

I don’t understand what this means, but try and find a single Windows user who cares (assuming everyone here is on Linux).

It looks like the kind of interface they’d use in classic Pokemon or Stardew Valley. I like the colours.

I actually know a couple of teachers at private schools and they say the people being hit hardest aren’t the rich twats but the families who scrimp and save just enough to try and give their kids the best opportunities.

It’s says you’ll have to register online but I don’t think you can do it yet. They’ve only just been told to do this.

If you download Bottles it has pre-fabbed Wine environments for certain software, including Fusion 360. I’ve used it occasionally for the last year although there seems to have been a recent update that’s killed it. Hopefully it’ll be fixed soon.

If you like Zorin and want to support it then just do it. Don’t let other people tell you to switch, more people should contribute.

They barely even have ties. They only started trying to improve things just before it all kicked off.

I’m a Linux user but some of the people on here make me want to go back to Windows.

I know but it’s cheap.

They’re reading too much into the Reform stuff. I don’t even know anybody who voted in the local elections.
