It's hard to lose an "old friend," especially when it's a community newspaper you devoted years of your life to. The decline of community journalism is a bad trend for America. This week, @NoorulainK of @SpecNews1RDU and I discussed it.

@brockpierson Yes, but a very long time ago, before the turn of the century.

@RecopilationNet CP/M

@adahstwt Floorp, so none of the above.

@CraftZhen @LadyVol_Hoops Welcome to Tennessee!

[John Cate @johncate73]

@TriStarNetwork I suspect she only jumped ship because of the uncertainty. She didn't quiet-quit late in the season. With CKC assembling a solid new roster, I can see her maybe deciding to come back.

[John Cate @johncate73]

@WBBurner02 @CoachQueenKim @LadyVol_Hoops Of course she's stressed. She's having to recruit a whole new team and she needs a team good enough to win in the SEC. But getting someone who can shoot straight is a great start!

@brockpierson Windows 3.1. Used 95, 98, 98se, 2000, XP, and 7. Then upgraded to Linux. Never run 11 even once.

@Itsfoss I've used PCLinuxOS since 2019, so...

[John Cate @johncate73]

@nobleisawinner 1977

[John Cate @johncate73]

@__Papilla__ @skylermzx Yes, it can. PCLinuxOS works right out of the box and has no systemd, or even components broken off systemd.

[John Cate @johncate73]

@skylermzx PCLinuxOS

@Barkley_Tap True. He's been a cheat code for the past 2-3 years. When he went down, the Chiefs turned into Browns West.

[John Cate @johncate73]

@td_nash Belichick, but the Patriots version, not the UNC version showed there.

[John Cate @johncate73]

@GMJobitti @Itsfoss Been using an old HP ProBook I got for $25 for the last three years. Put in an SSD and installed Linux and away I went.

[John Cate @johncate73]

@Itsfoss It's a niche product. Simple as that. If there were more demand, the cost would be lower. Linux itself may be free, but a laptop seller still has to certify Linux on the laptops it sells--and we know not all distros play nice with all hardware.

@HawkEmDownChris From that group? Got to be Curry.

[John Cate @johncate73]

@MLFootball Best DB ever, as long as you didn't ask him to tackle anyone.

[John Cate @johncate73]

@Irish_Cowboy88 Two, rather than one. They would have won in 94.
After that, attrition would have set in just like it actually did; they were getting older and losing guys to free agency. But four in a row...there would be no question they were the GOAT team.

[John Cate @johncate73]

@MLFootball @MileHighReport @denbron77 @KelbermanNFL @ZacStevensDNVR @TitleTalkTCL @MattCouture5 @PatsBuzz @jerrythornton No, because he can't play anymore. He was washed the last time we saw him play, and he's not any younger now.

@tarkaniang @Cest__Carre Without a soldier worth a damn to be found in the region, France became the first country to need a Foreign Legion.
