I have one computer in my house that has been running the same installation of Arch for eight years. I occasionally upgrade hardware components as needed, and will eventually take a full disk image and transfer it to an entirely new system once I’ve reached the limit of how much I can ship-of-Theseus it.

Never had a single problem with it in all that time.

That’s a good point. I gotta be honest, I’d forgotten that Adobe bought Photoshop.

I remember when Adobe was a cool company that built art tools. Now it seems like the art tools are an afterthought, tacked onto a money-siphoning scheme.

That’s… basically what they’re doing. “ChromeOS” is basically just going to be a desktop-friendly UI on Android.

Maybe so, but at least you guys aren’t Russia or Cuba.

kescusay , 1 month ago to linux in Chrome OS switching to the Android Linux kernel and related Android subsystems – OSnews

I think that’s actually the goal. If they can get a single core OS working on all their devices, that cuts down a lot on the difficulty of things like application development and security patches.
