Gnome Shell is getting better day by day, it is so intiutive. I think Canonical will regret :)

Gnome2 is good but not the Gnome3.. Even I saw an article of "Linus" (linux founder) has complained on it.. It was an article I read on google+

I can't stand using it longer than a day or two. I actually reverted to Ubuntu 10.10 because I missed Gnome 2 so much.

(Yes, I know it's outdated. No, I don't give a ****.)

    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print

      By sphbecker · Posted

      It depends on how technical of an answer you want. Does it stop manufacture drivers? Yes, the universal driver is the only thing that interfaces with the printer hardware. However, print support apps (PSAs) are the new way to provide that functionality you speak of, and they integrate directly into the print dialog box, so the user doesn't see any difference at all. This is nothing new...this has been the preferred way to do print drivers for almost 8 years! The only thing changing here is that the older printer model drivers of the past are being deprecated. I highly suspect that you yourself have installed a print support app described as a driver package from the manufacture's support page, had it work exactly as expected, without realizing it was using the universal IPP driver under the covers. For example, USB keyboards have all used the generic HID driver for just about as long as they have existed, but that doesn't stop manufacture "drivers" from enabling more features.

    • Claude on Windows is eating up massive amounts of RAM, with no way to stop it

      Wow..... 1.8GB of RAM usage. That's just a bit more than MS Teams or VS Code uses.

      Manufacturers will be able to ship printer-specific functions through their support apps (their companion software, in other words). But no, drivers won't be needed from them anymore, only the universal one included with Windows. Think about this as printers all agreeing to a stardandized API for common functions, all talking the same language and supporting the most common functionality via that API, so only a single driver is needed to talk to them. Any additional functionality not handled by that driver will be provided by the companion software for the printer.
