VMware offers their Workstation hypervisor for free now. I’m able to run Windows 10 surprisingly well using that, and use relatively intensive software like Affinity Designer without any noticeable issues.

I think it was prior to version 2, but these days it’s based on Sid - https://vanillaos.org/nerd-info

Aren’t the Templars still kicking about? Or is that just in the conspiracy theories?

Brooklyn Nine-Nine did an entire episode lampshading this whole thing. (S06E14 for the curious)

KRDC does a good job at RDP!

It’s a usability nightmare for me. I sure love it when I open a PowerShell prompt, and some random window takes focus instead for no reason. Or when I create a new folder in Explorer, and the address bar inexplicably steals focus.

And that right-click menu can take a long walk off a short pier

I’ve had luck with Krusader. Worth a try?

AMD64, innit?

My Xbox One wireless adapter works great on Debian, with xpadneo

Debatable

Skewer case, perhaps?

Examples I’ve seen in the wild:

• Argos POS terminals using CentOS
• ATM using OS/2 Warp
• Co-op tills running (I think) Windows Embedded POSReady
• TVs using Yodeck (ultimately Raspbian, I guess)
• Occasionally, ad terminal things using Raspbian

It’s probably a typo

It doesn’t, but thousands of people all downloading 3-4GB from the same site will put more load on the site. Torrents avoid this issue by downloading little bits from lots of different peers

Absolutely delightful, thankyou!

For some, that’s a benefit

Is that why the mascot’s a crab??
