Windows is still on Windows 11, unless you meant update numbers, which don’t matter anymore, anyway. However, many Linux distros, like Ubuntu and NixOS, use this versioning scheme.

flatpak run would like a word with you. You can easily just alias to that.

If the machine has enough power (which for a Pi is heavily varying between generations), yes, you absolutely can! Look into something like Docker Compose (or even running NixOS).

The true Cool Desktop Environment.

If taking minutes to launch one application is a plus?

It was a relative “nobody”

Nobody on Linux uses Chrome, however, and many disable telemetry. We need to normalize small amounts of statistics. Nobody will be able to trace you based on just uname -srpio.

Maybe it’s not the EU as a whole? But interestingly, your article says that FLOSS is exempt from these rules, which is great!

And the GPL has less legal garbage? One of the goals of the EUPL was that it can be understood by laymen, which doesn’t really hold true for the GPL. Those “simple” licenses like the MIT license don’t work in the EU btw, since you cannot completely renounce liability or copyright.

gnome-shell probably has its own proprietary way to do it. idk, I use Niri (which also does).

Beer and soda (lemonade) are the ingredients to a drink called Radler. But you shouldn’t use what Americans call soda.

Notch’s Bugatti is far less likely to spontaneously combust (because it was made by professionals, not AI), and if it did, it wouldn’t affect as many people. Omarchy claims to be an easy version of Arch, when in reality, it’s just doing what every beginner would be doing, including all of the accidental security holes, and then adds some more weakpoints through the unchecked shell scripts.

Part of those 8 million do go into paying “the Hyprland guy” (Vaxry)'s salary, and he himself hasn’t been very politically correct. DHH also is quite open about choosing “anti-woke” projects (i.e. without a CoC).

Linus has already chimed in, and wants Zstd to just use the standard way of checking for CPU features instead of rolling their own. Apparently, that would be even faster, compiling to a single jump instruction.

Mutter is made by GNOME, what do you expect?

Then the deal needs to be changed. Contracts are not above the law 🤷

As a member of Hack Club, I can’t really believe that Hackatime is really slop-free…

The nixos-unstable channel actually does ensure a minimum set of required packages work: Those that would prevent you from booting. The compiling-from-source is because Hydra (the binary cache) only starts building once a package appears in nixpkgs-unstable, and if it immediately proceeds into nixos-unstable, or one of its dependencies is different there, that build won’t be finished yet. release- and versioned nixos- don’t have that problem, as they have a merge freeze, and are mostly fast-forwarded along unstable.

What would be good is a mechanism for Hydra to tell you “I tried to build this derivation, and it failed.” For this, Nix first needs to store build failure, and since store paths are input-addressed by default, you can also skip builds that will certainly still fail.

I know, that was a rhetorical question.

Did Walmart block mobile payment, and is now selling it as an advantage???
