  • This is true, but kind of exaggerated. I can't run some windows 7 apps on Windows 10. I have been able to run some backalley Linux software from an html 1.0 site designed in the 90's no problem.

    On both platforms backwards compatibility is a little hit or miss, but yeah Linux is worse.

  • You can install mint or Ubuntu on your grandma's laptop these days and she will have fewer issues than she had on Windows. I game on Linux and 95% of the time i just install and it runs.

    I wouldn't say it's ready for your average user yet, but to say it's the same as it's always been is just incorrect.

  • What about when your banking site or the site your landlord wants you to pay with doesn't work because of this shit?

    It's gonna be a pain in the ass to switch browsers every time you run into one of these sites, and it'll eventually make its way into most services just because they feel like it.

    There are already way too many Android apps that refuse to work on rooted phones just because they feel like not working on rooted phones after they made safety net. It will be pervasive and at some point you'll have no option but to comply.

  • Something I'd like to point out is that this material is inherently hard to bring to high purity. It relies on a copper atom jumping into a higher energy configuration by chance which is not going to happen often since everything always tends towards the lowest energy configuration possible. Even if you wanted to make a low purity sample and refine it, the supposed material properties depend on the crystal structure, so you can't melt it down, you can't crush it and bring the powder back to a solid, it eludes most conventional ways of purifying a material.

    If it's real, we're not going to see any mass production for a long time. It'll be harder to mass produce than graphene by quite a bit, and we see how long that's taking.

  • Because that version of ublock is already less effective. The long play is ending ad blockers and this is another step to achieve those ends. If you can't see that then I'm sorry but it can't be much more obvious than it already is.
