    An Industrious Grocer in the 1930s Wanted to Make It Easier for His Customers to Buy More. They Just Needed a Push"There was a time when shoppers could buy only as much as they could carry. And as ubiquitous as shopping carts are today, it initially took some convincing to use them."https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/industrious-grocer-1930s-wanted-make-easier-customers-buy-more-just-needed-push-180987633/#history

    Found my first computer this week. Nascom 1 (1978 ish) built into a wind up gramaphone case, swappable roms (tiny basic and a monitor IIRC) space for a Phillips EL3302 cassette player (that i also have some where) also found my software on tape. Really need to archive those :) Z80 at 4Mhz , 2KB onboard 1KB video, 1K user. 4K expansion (8x 2114's) #RetroComputing #z80 #nascom

    Microsoft is killing Windows 10 and for many countries and users, updates will stop today. It is time to look for options.@brucelawson has a suggestion for you. IMHO there are many Linux distributions to choose between and you will need to choose the one that works best for you.I recently switched to Linux as my primary platform myself.My plea, however, to the Linux community is to make it easy for people to switch to Linux, but also to make it easy to switch window managers, key chains and the like. I switched to Ubuntu myself and I am finding certain things with Gnome were a pain. Thus I tried switching to KDE, but found that broke a lot of things. IMHO we should strive to make it easy for users to switch between window managers and desktops as well as applications, without breaking things. That requires the different players to work together to ensure that switching from one desktop to another, for example, does not need to mean loosing passwords. Locking in is one of the things Big Tech is known for. Linux should not have that, IMHO.#Windows #Windows10 #Linux #computing #Technology https://brucelawson.co.uk/2025/goodbye-windows-10-hello-zorin-os/
