The only thing funnier than the linux kernel supporting a filesystem who's creator murdered their wife, is people confusing it with bcachefs.

'the linux kernel might be removing a filesystem'
"you mean the one who's developer murdered his wife?"
'no the one who's developer keeps ignoring kernel mailing list protocol'

  2. puppy
  3. freebsd
  4. um?
  5. what?
  6. macos

Glad to see it's popularity is waning. Snap is the inferior universal package by many metrics and the steam snap in particular is very not ready for prime time.

You don't comprehend just how easy it is to do GUI programming in Javascript. Like if C++ is a nunchuck and Bash is a cursed hammer and lisp is a shiv then when it comes to GUI programming Javascript is Vector's control panel from dispicable me.

I hate electron apps. Just make a website asshole, don't bundle a whole chrome browser! The only one I'll tolerate is ferdium, because having a message control center is kinda neat.

especially as the hack flows downriver to distros with actual dignity like mint. Like this is pollution of the water supply dog!

well at least they aren't trying to make me install snaps, and patching apt so if I sudo apt install firefox it installs the snap version.

libaom is a fucking joke. SVT might be a memory hog, but as the proud owner of a system with enough memory to run it, I can proudly say my 1 minute video rendered in less than ten minutes and somehow had worse compression than x264

Wait, whot?

If most BSDs are running on the likes of AWS and azure (which wouldn't surprise me) then it could well be true

That's just going to result in "beats me"

Less likely to get RTFM from people who remember what it's like to love a computer not obsess over it I suppose
