DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: So I got Mandy that new iPhone SE. | May 03 03:40 |
DaemonFC[m] | He was demanding an iPhone. I said "Okay, but it's going to be the SE because it's insane to spend more than that on a phone, and you need to take care of it because whatever shape it's in is how you're going to use it for several years.". | May 03 03:41 |
DaemonFC[m] | I don't get it. You can get a better Android for the money, but oh well. | May 03 03:41 |
DaemonFC[m] | He's happy and his sister has one less tentacle on this household. | May 03 03:42 |

schestowitz | Laptops are vastly better | May 03 04:13 |

Oswell | any product that still includes flash player from Adobe is bound to be an unbounded success! | May 03 18:34 |
XRevan86 | Windows still includes Flash Player for ActiveX? | May 03 18:34 |
Oswell | Yep | May 03 18:34 |
XRevan86 | I wonder how that will change after the assiest of browsers switches to Chromium. | May 03 18:34 |
XRevan86 | in the Windows distribution itself | May 03 18:35 |
Oswell | You cant even get rid of active X - on XP you could turn it off, on windows 10 that feature is erm... | May 03 18:35 |
Oswell | Edge is Chromium, nobody likes it, google and privacy etc... | May 03 18:35 |
Oswell | But I guess it's an improvement on IE.. | May 03 18:36 |
XRevan86 | Though apparently they've put a switch in there that allows it to switch to EdgeHTML (or MSHTML?), so I guess that makes Flash Player for ActiveX kinda relevant? | May 03 18:36 |
XRevan86 | Oswell: When Google Chrome is deemed the more privacy-centric browser, one can tell something's gone terribly wrong. | May 03 18:37 |

Oswell | oiaohm, nah government still uses it when you do, multiple choice questions like your license renewal at the DMV | May 03 18:43 |
Oswell | its all flash player presentation.. so high tech! | May 03 18:43 |
oiaohm | XRevan86: where are talking enterprise internal applications one of the most stupid ones I have found using the ActiveX flash player was to look up and display the network printer status in office. | May 03 18:43 |

schestowitz | does it? | May 03 18:49 |
schestowitz | I thought it had dropped it | May 03 18:49 |
Oswell | Yes and no, upto SID if you want SystemD if you prefer SysV go with 7.11 | May 03 18:49 |
schestowitz | maybe I;m mistaking it with another ditros | May 03 18:49 |
schestowitz | debian dropped many archs in recent years | May 03 18:49 |
XRevan86 | ppc64el is an officially supported Debian architecture. | May 03 18:50 |

XRevan86 | Not with that though ;) | May 03 18:52 |
Oswell | apple shot itself in the foot, I mean seriously now you get your apple with EFI and the only reason EFI is in there is in case you decide you want to replace the BSD code base with Windows 10 | May 03 18:54 |
Oswell | fuck that! | May 03 18:54 |
XRevan86 | Oswell: Have you heard that Apple wants to go ARM now? | May 03 18:54 |
Oswell | Yes @ XRevan86 but it's not going to be cheap for them.. | May 03 18:54 |
XRevan86 | "the BSD code base" – there's almost nothing BSD in there | May 03 18:55 |
Oswell | it depends if you use MacPorts | May 03 18:55 |
oiaohm | Oswell: t2 chip | May 03 18:55 |
XRevan86 | Pull in some BSD stuff and then suddenly macOS is *BSD | May 03 18:55 |
