but when all the content is American gets a bit boring after awhile. There are some great foreign language shows on Netflix (Okkupert) but not enough of them. Can be hard to break into the scene now that everyone is moving away from TV.
Shelves of DVDs, CDs, Cassettes, Videos and Books.
I found that for the most part, I only ever watched, listened or read them once.
Now I own mainly paper reference books, and some digital books that could probably be deleted. I'm quite happy using my kindle app, streaming movies and not owning dust collecting media.
Yes works great on old hardware but people want to buy new desktops and laptops, this is where you will see these problems. Can be difficult to get the newest multi function printers to work too. Old hardware no problem.
you can walk into any PC store and buy a Linux desktop or laptop (buying online isn't enough)
Hardware (wifi dongles, printers, scanners, etc) needs to come pre-supporting Linux and not spends hours trawling forums for advice. Also upgrading the distro shouldn't lose hardware support (happens a lot with WiFi cards and dongles)
Microsoft Office needs to work on Linux (yes LibreOffice can do lots of things but it isn't up to the standard of MS, spreadsheet tables and charts are old fashioned looking, pivot tables aren't up to scratch).
Expecting lits of fanboi rants but these are the things we need to make Linux popular to the ordinary family. If you are a student and using MSO in class switching to LO at home isn't feasible, the same if you are working on a project at work and need to carry on working at home, LO isn't going to cut it. At one stage I think LO and OpenOffice were close in functionality to MSO but they lost out, I dunno if they can catch up now. Most other apps are good enough
the man who outsourced his coding to China and won awards for "his" work until the company ina security audit discovered unusual log activity coming from China lol
Really don't get all the fuss over iphones, my nieces got the 6 and apart from a bit bigger and fingerprint scanner was the sane as mybsons 4s. They are just so boring, reminds me of the Motorola RAZR, you got this nice new phone and the OS was the same asbevery other Motorola youbever owned. Say what you want about Android but at least there is choice.
Slashdot Mirror
I blame 50 Shades

Lazy Baltimore Sun didn't bother changing the site options and blocked it from EU customers.
4.9% is still way too high
Maybe if you could trust the government with your data we wouldn't need encryption.
Should it not be 6.0, as the last distro was 5.0 which I still have on CD
I'm still rock in the OnePlus One
Depends who you view as the competition, Samsung isn't the only game in town. I'd be looking at OnePlus 5 or Xiaomi Note 4x or Xiaomi Mi Max

Hate the spying, forced updates and unable to use UEFI as upgraded from win7 home so cannot duel boot.
Like the "volunteers" that invaded Ukraine
We run weekly pay reports and we wouldn't have the resources Google have.
that suffer from that problem; thwse days it seems every driver does
Please please please kill off this crap
KDE died for me a long time ago. It has become so bloated that it slows my PCs way down. Gnome is boring but at least its reliable.
I think that Android is to Linux, what Linux is to Unix. Related but different.

I thought that died with BeBo!
just cut one of the tubes ;)
I struggle to hit my 15Gb data limit
