People: hey you should think about this a bit and consider changing it to have a small positive impact

You: 🤬

Nobody’s forcing you to, nobody’s yelling at you, if you don’t do it it’s not a massive deal, you’re just yelling at clouds. Actually that’s not entirely true; I’m yelling at you because of your absurd overreaction to the mere idea of being a little thoughtful.

I don’t know if you got it from media, or you heard about this movement and for some reason immediately jumped to “they’re forcing us!”, but you really need to do some self reflection on why you got it so wrong and why you were so quick to do this outburst.

I see mostly people defending master starting arguments. I’ve never seen anyone pushing for main get even half as mad as some of the people coming up with a reason why it’s stupid. Like, holy shit guys, just don’t change it and move on, why be so mad about it?

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation lobbied against waiving intellectual property laws that would’ve let countries produce the vaccines themselves. Instead, only the pharma companies that owned the IP could produce it, and those vaccines were immediately gobbled up by wealthy countries leaving millions in poorer countries without a vaccine. So no, he’s not one of the good ones, his philanthropy is still evil with a hint of good purely to launder his reputation.

My keys were fine, I’d used them on a previous system. My best guess is boot failed because GPU firmware wasn’t signed with my keys, only Microsoft’s keys. And of course, I can’t just CMOS clear, and I don’t have an iGPU. It’s crazy that an OS can brick my motherboard; I’d be a lot more forgiving if a BIOS option bricked it, but exposing a “brick me” option in efivars for any ring 0 software to press??

I enrolled custom keys and bricked my motherboard 🙃

Who says this is JS? Might be Rust.

Progynova is the Debian logo

Immediate mode rendering and components seem to be why people use them. And you know what? The web should natively support those but doesn’t (well it kinda bad components, but ehhh). Otherwise I agree, the frameworks are overcomplicated.

Aren’t they the same now?

body {
    background-color: pink!important;
}

Number = IEEE-754 double precision float, which includes NaN, so it makes sense

Could definitely be worse for latency in particular cases, but if we imagine a write heavy workload it still might win. Writing a byte/word basically has to do the same thing: read, modify write of cache lines, it just doesn’t confuse the dependency tracking quite as much. So rather than stalling on a read, I think that would end up stalling on store buffers. Writing to bits usually means less memory, and thus less memory to read in that read-modify-write part, so it might still be faster.

A lot of times using less memory is actually better for performance because the main bottleneck is memory bandwidth or latency.

To me, namespaces = containers. I don’t know much about OCI, I only know how namespaces work.

snap uses containers

Is it backports for an old version?

Also, optional value semantics. I love value semantics!

Made with AI? Really? What would GNU think?

Minecraft mod users are the worst. They’ll post a screenshot of a version mismatch or dependency error that literally tells them how to resolve it and ask “hey, this mod isn’t working, how do I fix it?”

What? Nova is a rewrite of Nouveau from scratch by Redhat devs to better support newer cards.
