    Windows PC or Linux PC? Cause Windows PC aint gonna run shit with the build quality of the hardware and OS of the average PC.

    I can almost guarantee you the oldest running windows PC is older than the oldest running linux PC due to software that can't be re-compiled and brought to newer hardware/OS. Think hospitals, factories, etc.. Granted, this argument does not really work in favor of windows.

          But is it really Window's fault when a software vendor decides not to support a newer Windows version, or a manager thinks cutting costs by not renewing a support contract is a great idea? I've seen plenty of software fail to compile on Linux because of, for example, slightly newer (or older) glibc versions being present. It's not as if using Linux means software will magically run on every version out there.

            Banks are still running Cobol programs written by Jesus on punchcards. But it's not the same use case, Linux is mostly running on servers without a UI.

              Untill I saw UP. I just broke at that first scene. It's just such a fantastic tale about life and the journey it is.

              Up, wall-e, Toy story 1-3 are Pixar prime.

                      That is the problem which containers initially were to tackle. Before I always ran into the issue that two programs need two different versions of a library.

                          I don't know much at all about the EV industry, especially how their technology differs between manufacturers. But does that really matter, strictly speaking? Like the majority of "other" repairs are going to be just as uniform as traditional vehicles; things like tire changes, brakes, suspension, and whatever else I'm not smart enough to know about.

                          Other than the actual engine itself, can that other stuff really be fully proprietary, or non-servicable?

                          EDIT: I'm realizing that I didn't really clarify the distinction of "should" vs "does". I recognize that a huge amount of right to repair bullshit comes from companies being intentionally obtuse/greedy. What I meant to question was whether these restrictions on serviceability actually have merit, or if it's strictly enshittification being brought into the auto world.

                          They don't need much maintenance and the engine brake evs do to recover the energy removes stress on the regular brakes so the brakes last a lot longer.

                            Do you remember the old PC and Mac commercials. Funny how PC looks like Pierre P.

                            They tried doing the same thing in the UK with a comedy duo, Mitchell (PC) and Webb (Mac). They were best known at the time for a Channel 4 show, Peep Show, where Mitchell played an educated, qualified, no-nonsense, go-getting, straight-talking realist who was a bit awkward and frumpy, while Webb played an entitled, self-aggrandising, directionless, scatterbrained half-wit convinced he deserved greatness... I forget where I was going with this.

                                I think OP is talking about Short Circuit. OP also may be having a stroke, be suffering from dementia, or have snorted Benadryl.

                                  No technician on Earth will be able to debug this black box spaghetti except the manufacturer.

                                  I do not share such faith in the manufacturer that made the black box spaghetti.

                                  I do have faith that some random dude in Pakistan will figure out how to unlock a sensor using a paperclip and a 555 timer and will post it to YouTube.

                                  If the person in the video is wearing flip flops and smoking, tends to be good info.

                                    I thoroughly enjoyed short circuit 2 more than the first as a kid, but they are both great.

                                      Whoops, you almost mentioned that it's not actually Microsoft making the computer, they make the OS. While Mac makes the exact same but a little worse hardware that can only use one specific os that also reports everything and demands updates to start

                                      While Microsoft is primarily a software company, they’ve been making CPUs and AI accelerators for several months now.

                                      Also, by all accounts, Apple Silicon outperforms every other SOC on the market.

                                        That's about the time I started building my MP4 collection... Which is up to at least 2TB by now, if not 3...

                                          I'd rather service it myself and save my money, and own it so I know that it's been properly cared for and not shit/cummed in by a dozen people.
