I have decided to get back to FreeBSD, I used it as desktop 2002-2009 or so.
Downloaded 15.0, start install, wifi driver works perfectly, out of the box. Promising start, never seen before with FreeBSD.
Installed. Next, lets go to setup, graphics and Wayland. And here we started again, same story, hundred magic params to add, nvidia drivers doesn't work properly, install older version, is incompatible with Wayland etc. Need to go back to Xorg, another set of problems.
Ok, if I spent another 8 hours and asked for help in forums as it was 20+ years ago, I could have probably made it work. Until the next issue showed up.
So I decide to drop it, download CachyOS. Start installer. It detects K1000M, installs old version of Nvidia drivers, KDE, sorts out all compatibility issues, everything just flies, flawlessly. As never before, not even Ubuntu or Fedora.
CachyOS guys, thank you, you made an incredible work on getting it all to this state. Absolutely great.
Now don't get me wrong, I love FreeBSD, used it as my main driver for years in early 2000s, started my career with it and it has sweet spot in my heart, forever. It's just that laptop support is not there, still terrible, as it was 20 years ago. PS last laptop I used it successfully on, was Sony Vaio VGN-FS550 from 2005!
Come on, look at all the businesses and what's really happening in the space you're commenting on. That laptop literally means nothing.
There's also Delphi, which ticks all the nice boxes for UI requirements. But licencing is tricky there, not everything is available in community edition and more difficult to find support / developers for the project. Having said that, it's still great.
Kotlin with compose multiplatform shaping up too, so something to test out if it matches your current requirements.
What would be the benefits of this? I can't think of any yet.
Thank you for this. Great perspective.
PS: you didn't answer the question, how many presidents US have?
So how many presidents US have? 1 or many? I don't mind you're putting your opinion out, but it doesn't change the fact, despite that it sounds laughable to you.
1. You cannot open bank account without presenting share code from gov.uk, which shows your photo and right to stay and work when generated. 2. You cannot rent without presenting same share code. 3. You cannot go on cruise ship without presenting that. 4. Employers cannot hire you without presenting that code.
Codes are temporary, you login, generate and share that.
It's very much digital ID that's been in place for many years by now. So getting it to everyone makes sense, either "mark" everyone in a country or "mark" no one. And EU citizens been "marked" for a while and tested on with that system.
And with native python it has, I can query snapshots from Jira, add inputs etc.
So much simpler, you open Calc's window and just hop faaaast through sheets. Rather than opening your browser, typing URL, entering Jira, getting into correct board etc.
Need a to-do list? There too, just another sheet. Need to track your deployments? Just pull it into yet another sheet.
The sheet is everything you really need.
A few decades ago, a user base using whatever was available was about 99% lower than now. As well as governments were so illiterate that they could not read with the tech they had even those unencrypted messages.
