I heard it on the news (on the radio) while driving to work.

"Heard on the radio" might not be the best for inclusion in the Insider News.
Did you mean Dropbox focuses on collaboration with major app redesign | Computerworld[^]? Doesn't look like they are building an Operating System though.

The absurdity was that they theionk they're an "OS" company. What I think they really meant to convey is that they're going to try competing in the cloud.

If you heard it on the radio you don't know that dropbox wants to become an OS; all you know is that some idiot who probably thinks "The Internet" is what the Big Blue E on his computer is called thought that dropbox wanted to be an OS. Which shouldn't so much be taken with a grain of salt as with all the rocksalt the northern half of the US stockpiles each winter because it's coming out of the mouth of someone who probably wouldn't know what an OS was if it deleted all his data (which he has storing in the trash can because he thought it looked a little bit like a filing cabinet).
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

You’ll be able to run old applications on newer versions of Ubuntu. Great news for people that just have to keep playing those old games

It is described as a simple, fast, and compiled language for creating maintainable software. I think we're still missing a few letters in the programming language alphabet

Yeah, first attempts at a blurb went through "V for Victory", "V for Vendetta", and the V TV series (there is only one). Brain couldn't come up with anything.

I have PiHole with DHCP and an OpenVPN running nicely on a RPi 2b works great

I have Pihole running on two 3B+'s, and a 3rd just sitting there in case one of the other two fails.
