zorin os
is the most usless distro ever
you can get all software for free but unstead they're charging it for monye whene it is all free and just a gnome extenstions
I wish Linux to improve for the better. So that I can ditch windows again and get back to linux!
"Come to the Linux side! We have cookies and a Pinguin 🐧!"
That QR code on the bsod better be an optional way of getting help. It's no use to anyone without a web-enabled device with a camera.
Zorin OS is visually reminiscent of MS Windows Vista imo. I always remembered Vista fondly. Great OS, vulnerable as a poindexter 🙁
That 3d window switching was cool when it came out 15yr ago
OMG this is such a great news for the EU and AI!!!! It's about time that we start respecting copyrights and existing laws.
BSoD was already there in the kernel panics, but this sounds like a much better implementation than either that or the MSBSoD. Having actual information about what failed, why, and maybe even how to fix/recover will be great for new users.
9:18 to 9:35 and also aside..is the fact that the exwct error codes or Messages from ABS OD were always very cryptic VS your Linux. Equivalent crash message of any kind
8:06 onwards….why? This is just stupid.
Leave the stupid winTURD features and issues in the wonTURD world where they belong.
Please make the screen green or red or yellow, but please not BLUE!!! 🤣🤣🤣
The uefi bios update that i need to get
I will do some digging….as there SHOULD be a way to "DISABLE" the BSOD…..sorry….but I'm not interested in seeing one on my Linux systems…period. And if I cannot find a way to disable it?…I''ll go with a distro that doesn't have systemd included with it. This was one of the reason why I turned to Linux…to be able to have my systems run the way I WANT…not someone else…..so here's to finding a work-around for this!…
I just came back to Linux myself
The climate change not exist, the speech of teaching artificial intelligence to help with something that does not exist shows why so many companies, most of which belong to blackrock, are behind it, imposing carbon points on us, control and limiting freedoms, which they will not have, no thanks, no AI
Number one Linux news channel on YouTube.
Où trouves tu l'information que tu partages, c'est quoi ton approche?
Thanks Nick.
Zorin has also preinstalled and preconfigured metric compatible fonts, that should make MS Office documents look pretty much the same.
Speech synthesis being looked as part of accessibility improvements is long overdue. Voice synthesis has improved a lot in recent years yet espeak still sounds like it's straight from the 90s :,)
AI "law" won't stop governments from misusing or even private companies for that matter. At best it establishes a punishment when done….. but selecitive prosecution will protect the connected…. it's better that everyone be well informed and assuming AI is in use… need to learn adversarial techniques….. at least until the AI collapse.
