On the Wikipedia 'Comparisons of Operating Systems' page, it says that MCP, originally developed by Burroughs in 1961, had its last stable release in 2021. What is it still being used for?

  • Tron Legacy perhaps?

    I thought the MCP was erased back in the 80s.

  • I'm self hosting it, costs me nothing.

    • What’s the worst piece of technology you’ve ever owned?

    Jump

  • I got one of those Epson ink tank printers for $250au. I think it's the first time inkjet printers have become legit affordable and high capacity.

    Laser still wins on reliability though, and being an Epson means it's a Tamagochi so needs to be used monthly at least so it doesn't die.

    • Why does nobody here ever recommend Fedora to noobs?

    Jump

  • Ok.

    It's not an option out if the box for me on Fedora 40 but maybe it's because I started on 39 and upgraded later.

    • Has Facebook Stopped Trying?

    Jump

  • Late 2023, Facebook added a feature where you can create multiple identities at ease, attached to your primary login, thus breaking the real name requirement. As a group admin it's changed the game, as people can easily join the group multiple times then brigade etc.

    • A PR disaster: Microsoft has lost trust with its users, and Windows Recall is the straw that broke the camel's back

    Jump

  • Not sure about that. They try to get you to sign up for services, and they deliberately broke something with installing from certain file types.
