I don’t think the reason people liked the full switch to NT is because of GUI “enforcement”, but rather that x86 DOSs had some historical limitations, both because of the OS and because of peculiarities regarding the IBM PC platform (like “conventional”, “extended” and “high” memory, or many DOS programs expecting real mode operation) which NT and its HAL abstracted away, making it more stable, though not as stable as any base *nix system.

2·3 months agoWell, I used to think like you too, having only active tabs I needed and bookmarking important stuff.
But now I have tabs, which are important, but not as important to bookmark them permanently. So I persist tabs across sessions now, because else my bookmarks are way too cluttered for my tastes.
“meine”, because the plural follows the feminine :)
And you are thinking about cases, since it’s a noun.


In the server space, both FreeBSD and Linux systems are well-regarded. Linux caught up since that post and receives more support now, obviously, but I wouldn’t flinch when encountering FreeBSD (or other *BSDs for that matter) as a server.
As for Windows… yeah, just look at the news regarding that…
