OUTSIDE....of course! Humidity inside is very low, approx 50 percent. Temperature inside is 22 degrees, or lower. Humidity outside is high. Temperature outside is high...of course...since this IS Thailand, as you know. Note: Photo image attached in the OP was captured this morning from one of my windows. All windows/glass-doors look about the same.

Marketshare of Linux Desktop: Why not MUCH higher, these days?

Hoe? You mean... Hoe-Hoe-Hoe? I haven't gotten one yet. -

Marketshare of Linux Desktop: Why not MUCH higher, these days?

EXACTLY! OS/2! Well said. I loved OS/2. Then, Gates killed it. Windows is the Chevrolet of the computer world. Lowest common denominator.... Except for.... Still, this Chevy was complete garbage compared to...... ERGO: Windows is REALLY nothing but GARBAGE.... LEAP is better than Windows, any old day! NOTE: a. Aston Martin V8 is expensive b. OpenSUSE is free c. Therefore: Why not drive an Aston Martin for free, rather than drive Windows garbage? -
Dear Folks, First, we had the Hot Season. And now, we are entering a different Season. Neither is very good, as you can plainly imagine. For one thing, all this condensation on my windows is beginning to bug me, Big Time. In fact, I can hardly even see out, outside, these days. Must I turn off my ACs? Or, is there any way to keep my windows from getting like this, while keeping myself cool inside, and the humidity outside, at bay? Living in Thailand with such high heat one month, and such rain the next month, and then humidity all the time, which causes the outsides of my windows to fog up like an ice-cold beer glass.... I had never had this happen to me in the past. What can be done, if anything? Not sure how much longer I can stand it, being inside this cool box, but not being able to see out. Sort of like living in Taipei during the winter, which I never, ever, liked. Of course, when the sun comes out, then all this condensation evaporates rather quickly. But, during the night and early mornings, and in the evenings, there is no sun. What about installing windows with those heating elements that Volvo used to advertise? Or, do I need to just put in thermoglass, or something? If I could heat up the glass, then the condensation would not occur. Just thinking out loud. Because, I really cannot believe that most homeowners could tolerate all this condensation, every day, and much of the day, for many months. Does this happen to you, too? Regards, Gamma Note: Quite annoying when one's windows get like this, and stay like this, for 80-percent of the 24-hours of the day, and that's all I can say.

Do you have to wear a towel during a massage?
GammaGlobulin replied to Conan The Barbarian's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Being Naked, Sir, is always best for me. Glad you agree. I came into this world without garb. And, I was happiest, then. These days, Brooks Brothers is wasted on me, though I once wore it. -

GammaGlobulin replied to Conan The Barbarian's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I wear a towel most days. I don't like wearing clothes. Either a towel or a sarong are both OK for me. It's only the cargo pants that I would never wear. -
British Couple Arrested for Running Xanax Scam in Thailand
GammaGlobulin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Take Xanax, fake or otherwise, at you own risk. I would never do such a thing. Still, it's a real MONEYMAKER for those who produce Xanax, fake or otherwise. -
It's never two late. It's never too late. It's never to late. Too true!

Marketshare of Linux Desktop: Why not MUCH higher, these days?

So, when you programmed your drones, you used C++? Actually, there is very little lack of support for C++, as you must admit. -

At least we can agree on this. (never used anbox) -
Marketshare of Linux Desktop: Why not MUCH higher, these days?

Which two? I doubt you cannot get around it. ADOBE products, right? Just pirate and run on Linux. NEVER pay for any software that does not run on Linux! https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US The reason ADOBE products do not run on Linux is just NOT due to lack of userbase. It's a policy decision by a FING monopoly company that hinders the progress of the Human Race. ADOBE needs to be taken down. And, all it's products need to be ported to Linux. In fact, EVERYTHING needs to be ported to Linux. Even FING Word and Excel needs to be ported to Linux. F Microsoft! -
I am now fully UP-TO-DATE with Leap 15.6 Stable Version. Working GREAT. Love it, in fact. Windows is Down, Down...DOWN! Next year, at the end of the year, I might install Leap 16 (one month after it becomes available). For me, Windows is now a thing of the past. No use for it. I encourage any geriatric readers to follow my lead. Don't be afraid. The learning curve for newcomers to LEAP is NOT Steep. Just try KDE, and you will never go back to Windows. (No need to type in commands if you do not want to. OpenSUSE using KDE does NOT require this, unless you want to.) ================ Thank the gods I will never need to install Windows 11, or Windows 12, on my computers! ========= This is GD Garbage! Windows has held back Humans by many years. Windows has cost the Human Race Billions of Lost Man Hours in wasted time and effort. THIS is the True Legacy of Bill Gates!

Some of us LOVE disgusting user interfaces. It's all just a matter of personal preference. User experience, using disgusting user interfaces, is ALWAYS Great! This has been by user experience, for many years. -
Marketshare of Linux Desktop: Why not MUCH higher, these days?

Dear Folks, It seems that the marketshare of Linux Desktop has not risen much since a few years after I first began using Linux for the Desktop. But why? Is this due to sheer stupidity? Or, is this due to sheer monopoly tactics? Or, is it BOTH, most likely? Even a ONE-percent growth, to my ears, sounds GREAT! Just as long as we are not backsliding, is all I care about. I have a few friends who have nothing but Linux installed on their ThinkPads.....from China. I also doubt this data. Who really knows, anyway? All I know is that I will NEVER go back to Windows. And, if Linux is good enough for me, then it must be good enough for almost everybody. I might guess that the reason why more people do not install Linux on their laptops and desktops is just due to habit and fear, and also being idiots. For example, how many idiots vote for Trump? If only we could convince the non-idiots to install Linux, then we could increase our Linux marketshare immensely! There is really nothing to fear by installing Linux, instead of Windows, on your computer. Also, in MY view..... The best way for us to move from Windows to Linux on the Desktop would be to have XiJinPing decree that all 1.4 billion Chinese in China must move from Windows/Apple to Linux by the middle of 2025. IF XiJinPing enforced such a decree, then I would definitely vote for him next time he comes up for re-election. Another problem with increasing uptake of Linux Desktop is guys like this: How do we get guys with picks and shovels, in the hills, who are probably strung out on METH, to change from Windows to Linux Desktop? Sure, we have our work cut out for us,....but.... We can do it. After 25 years of using Linux, I still love Linux, and I still love Linus. I don't like hillbillies, though. Yet, in order to increase the uptake of the Linux Desktop, then we must hold our noses, and try to EMBRACE the ignorant hillbillies..... If we can just win over the Mountain Men of the USA, the guys who believe in Clean Coal, then this might be a real step forward for Linux on the Desktop. I have given this much thought during the past quarter century. And, I have many other good ideas. Best regards, Gamma G.
