The real benefit with Electron is the whole write-once-run-everywhere goal that Java was supposed to originally achieve, combined with super fast prototyping.

Maybe one day we'll get a JIT/AOT version of HTML.

Plenty of them?

Hey guys, ChrisFix here!

Jack Quaid plays Jack Quaid.

It was so hyped for so long. I was beginning to fear that it couldn't possibly live up to expectations.

I was pleasantly surprised.

Like dealing with someone who lies all too often, “they are the boy who cried wolf” gets used. Meaning, one of these days they are going to tell the truth but no one will believe them.

Or, you know, that you should never tell the same lie twice.

It's late. It was supposed to be April 1.

Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

Nope. Been using the same installation of Windows 10 for years, and everything just works.

Even swapped the SSD from one laptop into another one. Added a UEFI boot entry, and it came right up.

I think the only problem I ever had was audio or Wi-Fi occasionally failing to work after resume. But that resolved itself after one of the major updates.

The only annoyance I've run into is the "Let's finish setting up your device" screen after feature updates. But you can disable that fairly easily.

I mainly use it as a glorified Chromebook though. Browser, Windows Terminal + WSL, maybe the occasional Inkscape or Lightroom. All the "interesting" stuff happens in Linux VMs atop ESXi running on an old desktop.

But for everyday use, it's nice to have something that "just works" when I pick it up.

I might check out Linux again in a few years though. From what I've read, PipeWire seems to be killing it in terms of progress on the audio side. So once the Wayland ecosystem matures, it should be fairly easy to get back that "just works" status with Linux.

In terms of performance, the main issue Windows really has is disk I/O. But a modern SSD fixes that easily. I am using a second-hand, nine-year-old Dell Latitude laptop, and it does everything I need it to do. Boots up in seconds. Has to stay plugged in though.

Be not afraid

Given the way that T'Pring and her father were acting, I thought for sure that all four of them were transformed into humans.

Did you just keep tapping the center predicted text suggestion?

Backpack?

Coming soon from CBS Studios, Young Garak! See how a young Cardassian grows up under a ruthless tyrant!

Followed by the sequel, Breaking Baste, where a once-infamous spy becomes a simple tailor.

Guinan is the better bartender, if you're just a regular Starfleet officer looking to down a pint of syntheholic ale.

Nonsense, she also has green!

Besides, I couldn't see Quark making a Tzartak aperitif.

That's because you don't see Ten Forward during red alert

The ship will clean itself!

I reached a point in my life where I just didn't have time for things that don't "just work."

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

As a man I can assure you we have the same problem. I have garments with a 30" waist that fit the same as a 34" waist. And I have pants with a 29" inseam that go past my feet and 32" inseam that don't.
