But...but...but they could just install Linux and then Chrome with
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install wget
wget https:
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
That's just like Windows, isn't it?

Over time data scientists are beginning to realize that the statistics are almost never wrong. The billion-dollar valued corporations such as Twitch, Twitter, Facebook havve made the data public, it's almost never wrong.
Codeproject has a sockpuppet problem, it's the date/time that gives it away. The metrics are so accurate that advertisers use it to avoid false user engagement claims.
Sorry, it's the wine. But I did smile the whole time I typed this on the TV keyboard.

Interestingly, I only have a sock puppet because at one time CP had a problem with the ' (apostrophe) in my name! To post anything back then, I had to create a new account. Ahh - here it is: RandomMonkey - Professional Profile. Never use it any more, since everything got cleared up, so it doesn't really qualify to even be a sock puppet.
- edit - TV keyboard? You really do love challenges!

I've always heard that it's hard to teach an old dog new tricks. I also think this is true. I do have a hard time adopting to newer technology as I get older.
But my lazy ass sipping on wine at the TV... finds it easy to adopt typing on the 85" 4k TV. How can you possibly resist? I'm laying down too.. can you believe it?

An academic research project found that thousands of JavaScript developers are using an email address with an expired domain for their npm accounts, leaving their projects exposed to easy hijacks. I'm sure that also speaks to the high level of care they put into maintenance of the packages

When building an app with Windows App SDK you have access to both modern Windows technologies and new features, while also having access to the power of Desktop Win32. Does it work on Linux?

I actually wonder... does it work on windows 11?
