With lots of things being developed through web technologies, and many things being web-based so that it is cross-platform, will operating systems still be relevant?
We can differ philosophically by using Debian or Arch or Windows or Mac, but if nowadays applications are web-based or developed through something like Electron such that it can run on practically all modern operating systems. what is the relevance of operating systems galore?
Don’t get me wrong I love FOSS and Linux and stuff, but it seems that the paradigm right now is creating web applications, with many things being web-based.
Am I off, or is this something you also think about?
P.S. I’m a total noob when it comes to IT, so the question might be weirdly phrased.
None, pure hardware stick-shift minimal abstraction. They will never be able to charge me a subscription for higher speeds, remote unlock or the seat warmers, and the best part is no telemetry.
Will you never purchase a car again?
I don’t think the other manufacturers are going to do the same things that BMW and Tesla are trying.
Nah I’m going the other direction, if I ever need new transport the Amish near me have good deals on a used horse and buggy.
Haha, this is brilliant.
I hope to live in a place, one day, where I can get by without a car. Imagine being able to cycle everywhere!
