They knew what they were doing 😏

I’m saying I want to make a difference by helping to break the hegemony the country I was born in has on the world. I dare say the only people who would call that a bad thing are specifically the sort of people I absolutely fucking detest in this place.

As a unitedstatesian engineer, reading stories about escaping the infuriating (and now, very obviously caustic and manipulative) US monopoly on tech infrastructure companies makes me want to move to the EU and help break the monopoly on that shit. There are other things that make me want to move too, but the opportunity to build some real alternatives that diminish US hegemony over… well, everything, is frankly more than a bit enticing.

13% JS? 😬

x86: it’s easy peasy

arm: asahi is where you need to go, and the most recent chips are not really very well supported

As to the choice between gnome and KDE (desktop environments): Gnome is gonna have more of a ‘macOS’ vibe, while KDE is more of a ‘Windows’ vibe.

Sounds like this may be what’s going on.

Also, I believe this will work with 10 as well as 11.

…except that MS keeps fixing what’s not broke by adding AI to it, which is part of why people are ditching it.

How did they squander being the name in autonomous vacuum devices…? It’s kinda baffling tbh.

That, or TempleOS

Pardon me for being less intimately familiar with the project - but my point still stands, in terms of test focus. And yes, of course I know bugs are inevitable - I’ve been writing them for damn near two decades at this point.

So:

• yes, that’s pretty sketchy
• this is also AFAIK the first major distro that it’s been a part of as a stock install, so this is the first exposure at scale that the project has had; as unfortunate as it is, it can be argued that this might fall under “teething issues”
• with that said, it sounds like the rust coreutils people need to step up their game in terms of thinking in and testing for adversarial contexts. Normal test cases do not cut it when you’re dealing with stuff like sudo - it needs to be put through the ringer.

I used Rufus to make Linus boot USBs for AGES

I’m doing bazzite because I like atomic for this use case (primarily a gaming box, with some additional utility as a server/general use PC + dev box; I want stability)

But I’m stoked that the Linux migration movement is getting more traction across the board

Ew

Sick, this will make shifting to bazzite nicer

Lmao this is wild. I didn’t catch this the first time around, but… holy glass ego, Batman.

Ok well this deserves a closer look. Might slap this on a spare laptop and give it a test drive.

Switch to BSD

No no - it’s not plagiarism; it’s standardization.
