Hi Narelle,
Been buying laptops since 1997 and never using the pre-loaded OS, in
favour of loading and using Linux. I use Ubuntu now.
Lot's of good side: viruses, gimp,cpanel,open office, I tried to do
online GST - first return in 2000 was ok- but not so upgrades - but
support for linux bad and now accountant does return.
Interesting talk on Friday emphasised Sun Systems (ZFS?) developed File
System now open source with a strong community. Used by a aus HOSTING
company.
Google has standardised bins across company (different blue and yellow
bins to aust). But qudos on reusable drinking vessels. My instagram posts:
1. reuseable glass https://www.instagram.com/marghanitadacruz/p/DMhi4j_SWwY/
2. bins https://www.instagram.com/marghanitadacruz/p/DMhfivFSui9/
Pizza and Coke has not changed despite Bowel Cancer epidemic in adults
under 50.
Audience picked up an error in AI generated slides.
