not very accurate, you can still install Windows graphically, and you could install Linux either on a console or with a GUI both in 2005 and now

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Free software has some glib naming conventions
13·1 month agoCompared to how Microsoft names things, FOSS naming is harmless on average.
Think of them naming the gaming app on Windows PCs “Xbox”, or the distinction between “VS Code” and “Visual Studio Code”, or “edit” (msedit), etc etc

Opensource@programming.dev•UN Ditches Google for Taking Form Submissions, Opts for an Open Source Solution Instead
14·2 months agoThe article is from May; has anything important related to this happened in the last few days, or why are you posting this now?

If Google is their default search engine, they must at least be tech-savvy enough to have changed the search engine in Edge, or installed another browser (probably Chrome).
Which “non-techy people” are we talking about here?
Nowadays some people only use smartphones or maybe tablets, and they might not know that. But most non-techy desktop users still use Windows and they certainly ought to know the default browser (and its search engine) on their OS, I would think.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Clock but the PM quit and was replaced halfway through the project. Handover instructions: "Make the clock hands show the current time"
85·2 months agoPlenty of people older than Gen Alpha very much prefer digital clocks too. I can read analog clocks but it takes me several seconds to convert it to digital time (which is how my brain thinks). As far as I’m concerned, analog clocks are a relic of the past and it’s a good thing to abolish as many of them as possible.
My city’s zoo currently has cheetah cubs and a few weeks ago I was able to observe live how one of them chirped. Usually they’re quiet, but it’s really cute when they do make sounds.









At least that way we’ll be able to tell when things are AI-generated.
