Dave is a charlatan who thinks that the fact he worked on one app decades ago somehow makes him relevant in the modern day. Not to mention that he sold shitty software that tricked people into fake anti-virus, and got hit legally for it.
Feel free to try out Rust then.
Not everyone needs to invent a language when one can contribute to an existing one.
Don’t see why this even needs to be news.
Zig is just mid anyway as a programming language, partly because its just a new masturbatory Lang for C people and partly because of Andrew’s poor, shepherding of the project.
I don’t think Andrew is notable enough to bother having a full article about the things he does.
First outrageous DDR5 RAM prices now ssd’s.
Welp. Won’t be upgrading my pc for the next few years I see
Uh no. You can get nHA toothpaste in the USA without a prescription, not sure why you’d think that. It’s just not a popular item here so it’s not sold at brick and mortar stores for the most part, though some smaller stores have it. But I have no problem ordering the stuff online.
They get Windows because I’m not being paid to support their setup
SimpleX literally solves the messaging problem. You can bounce through their default relay nodes or run your own to use exclusively or add to the mix. It’s all very transparent to end users.
At most, aws outage would have only affected chats relayed on those aws servers.
SimpleX also doesn’t require a fukkin phone number.
As an American, Americans are strangled by Microsoft.
Microsoft doesn’t actually care because most of their revenue is from corporate environments tied to the OS and their cloud offerings. Everyday users are nothing to them, which is why they don’t try harder to keep you from using unactivated copies of windows. You are nothing
Forking Linux and continuing to do that instead of up streaming is a massive task, especially as time goes by and code similarities drift. It’s much better to upstream. This is why fortune 500 companies contribute to the Linux kernel.
The old guard in the Linux kernel have a real stick up their ass against anything not C, despite Linus himself advocating that rust drivers should at least be looked at. It’s turned off a lot of new blood doing projects like Asahi because they don’t have upstream support so the burden of the project is much too great for a hobbyist endeavor for something that should otherwise be fun and mentally engaging.
Ah yes, arch but fascist.
pass
Just straight up Bazzite to be honest.
Fedora by itself is too Puritan for stuff not fully foss in their default repos
If only Linux devs weren’t so toxic against rust that it drove out talent that was working on Asahi Linux for these devices :V
Ars technica still supports rss by topic
Pipewire-pulse provides compatibility to programs that may not directly support pipewire yet.
Pipewire was developed to be a total drop in replacement to the Pulse audio sound server. It has compatibility layers that allow other things to talk to it.
Edit: debian is not showing pipewire-alsa as a hard dependency of pipewire https://packages.debian.org/trixie/pipewire
That’s just it though. The developers can drop out over time, then some other corp can come in and control it, then close source it.
This is such bad take only because it singles out rust for some weird reason. Tool total rewrites take work regardless of language
I understand the sentiment.
The move to a permissive license opens the door for these tools to possibly become closed source one day.
I’m sure all 12 users of artix will be very sad lol
Use mpv player like a normal person and stop chasing weird ui things
