so sad 🎤 🎻😢

There is nothing illegal about packaging Redis, or other open-source projects depending on it, irrespective of jurisdiction.

And Arch has no customers to worry about if they accidentally depend on a package that restricts closed-source commercialization, not that it’s a distro’s job to pick on that anyway. Commercial entities are supposed to have a process that checks the licenses of all dependencies. If you know how to reliably avoid AGPL, then you know how to reliably avoid RSAL and SSPL.

And I’m liking the cognitive dissonance of dissing Redis while praising Red Hat 🙂

That’s not the original.
Hint: any version that doesn’t mention “communists” is “filtered”.

you’re a vampire acting in total deniability while you smell for blood.

omg 😲

asshole, stop insulting people

huh 🙄

Just because you don’t get it

get what 🤔

doesn’t warrant any corrossive purposeless insults being validated as any kind of quality character.

the irony 🙂

Couldn’t decipher what you wrote there. Maybe it’s a result of the same cognitive dissonance that would push someone to deliberately support and buy vendor-locked Linux-unfriendly hardware, then want to run Linux on it.

Without Asahi, you can’t run Linux on Macbooks.

good.

VLC was never great in its own right.

If there is something historical to talk about, it’s how shit Windows was for both not providing basic functionality in a minimally serviceable media player. And worse, how it couldn’t get the basics of OS-ing right in being susceptible to DLL hell and other similar issues.

In other platforms where such inadequacies were never present, VLC never became a big deal, because…VLC was never great in its own right.

Signal has been questionable for years. The way it’s been pushed hardly, and how Moxie is emeritus, while much more questionable people are in control, doesn’t fill one with confidence, and does ring some alarm bells. The relative proximity to some in the US establishment should be enough to do that. And the way some have been designating anyone who questions Signal as “Russian Propaganda” and immediately deflecting about how Telegram is bad, is even more curious.

Frankly, I would trust something like Wire more than Signal. And there are other options too.

Ideally, something with good security/privacy and is fully P2P would become popular. But those apps/networks never make it mainstream, which is unfortunate.

Source? What is the percentage of trolls that were even chased and successfully denonymized?

This is like the worst example possible, considering Aaron himself was rich, which should tell you the obvious, that being rich was never a sole differentiator.

But that might be too disruptive to the current echo chamber.

What X11-only apps/programs did you need xwayland for?

I actually always disabled xwayland whenever I experimented with wayland (weston and sway), because everything I use is supported natively, and I wanted to make sure the native support was forced.

There is a manifesto that is literally titled the “The Post-Meritocracy Manifesto” which a lot of people unironically agreed with, at least when those were hot topics a few years ago.

So any attempt at pretending that there isn’t an anti-meritocracy angle to this would be disingenuous to say the least.

That same person behind the manifesto is a primary figure in introducing CoC’s to software projects btw.

I’m not abandoning my Awesome WM setup anytime soon personally. But I thought it’s worth sharing this perspective from someone who knows this stuff much better than me.

Fun Fact: Rust didn’t always support leading pipes (which are optional), not even at v1.

Unless I’m hallucinating memories, the support was added with influence from Haskell.
