    @phenomlab said in Windows 10 EOL by October 14, 2025: From memory, the commercial edition is RHEL. Yeah the RHEL is the commercial edition. I think I am going to stick with Arch and KDE desktop for that version. It seems like Arch is really versatile and compatible with almost anything. Pair that to the experience that I have had for the server side of things, and the USB boot version I have, it is hard to beat.

    @phenomlab well I hope that a better company steps up and puts in a higher bid. If I had the money I would buy TikTok. That platform is a money makers dream. So many people on it now er or was. I think MS will just mess it up like they do everything else. Hell, they can’t even get their own software to work correctly, how would they even keep that one up and running.

    @phenomlab this looks very nice as well. It is nice that they keep the KDE Neon a rolling release so you will get those updated apps even though Ubuntu isn’t a rolling release. Is it a rolling distro? KDE neon is rolling for KDE software. The Ubuntu base OS is not, but certain packages will be updated as needed to support KDE software requiring newer library versions than what is provided by Ubuntu. Apps from the main repositories are not rolling either, and therefore can be up to two years old. Users are encouraged not to use them, and to instead get apps from Snap or Flatpak using KDE’s Discover app store. In neon, Discover is set up to only show apps from these sources, filtering out apps from the repositories.

    @phenomlab issue was with high traffic spikes and the website used to get crashed. API is managed by others, its built in such a way they built it in such un protected way. we would be moving to nodejs own APIs soon to address all these issues. thought of solving it with help of you and a friend of mine is helping me build a new site with APIs. thanks

    @mathourthy Good question. They have zero effect from what I can see. It’s not going to stop them from targeting anyone else.

    @Panda said in Wasting time on a system that hangs on boot: Why do you prefer to use KDE Linux distro, over say Ubuntu? A matter of taste really. I’ve tried pretty much every Linux distro out there over the years, and whilst I started with Ubuntu, I used Linux mint for a long time also. All of them are Debian backed anyway I guess I feel in love with KDE (Neon) because of the amount of effort they’d gone to in relation to the UI. I agree about the lead and the OS statement which is why I suspect that Windows simply ignored it (although the Device also worked fine there, so it clearly wasn’t that faulty)
