Repairability doesn’t really matter if you only get two years of software updates.

Yes, there’s lineage OS, but whether their support will be better, is doubtful.

We shouldn’t support a company that openly says they don’t give a crap about their users’safety.

That is absolute nonsense. SUSE mostly serves large enterprise customers.

And where do you think the people deciding what to buy get their information? Mind share is important.

I’m pretty sure SUSE is bigger than Canonical.

That’s actually surprising to me, but I’d argue that Suse offers more products, it seems like Rancher, Longhorn, etc. have no canonical equivalent.

Reboots after three days and then disappears in the cloud.

And you really think, people who are willing and able to buy enterprise support for their Linux distro get confused by the naming? Sure, there’s that one confused dude, but you also have people asking Facebook where they left their keys.

OpenSuse is essentially free marketing for SUSE, nobody would know them otherwise. Why would you give that away?

Suse is not a huge company, it has neither a large enterprise backer nor any killer features, and its market share is relatively small compared to Red Hat or Canonical. Throwing away free marketing while alienating a relatively passionate community is a kind of brainrot only MBA can come up with.

Is there even someone left?

I only tried it around 2008 or so and it was extremely slow paced back then while looking like the interface from a sci-fi movie.

No.

Interoperability is only required, if you have a significant market share. Apple does not have this in the EU. iMessage specifically doesn’t fall under this regulation, since hardly anyone uses it.

And since Apple plans to publish an SDK for their intelligence anyway, you can’t really regulate them for being too closed.

So either that’s a purely political retaliation, or their “super privacy friendly” services aren’t as privacy friendly as they claim.

SSH, OpenSSL, LibreSSL, pf …

There’s not a single web server without some code from them. Every single phone, every Linux machine, and probably even Windows (citation needed) ships with some of these tools.

And you didn’t hear a thing, because the OpenBSD guys just sport a smug smile and don’t care about our plebian fame.

I don’t think it’s validation in the sense we normies felt. For regular, sane men it’s more of a fitting in and being desirable kind of validation, women do the same in that age.

For him and other powerful people (but also some regular men) it’s a power thing. Many powerful people are narcissists, and they live constantly under the dissonance of illusion of grandeur and inferiority complex. Essentially forcing their will onto others is a way to mitigate the latter.

Especially in terms of “legally not rape” charges, even the average man has to face terrifyingly few consequences. So many women report assaults, unwanted aggressive advances and “not exactly consensual kinds of intercourse” without the men ever facing anything serious, not even stigma. Banging blackout drunk girls is a sport for some people.

Truth is, it works often enough that they’ll keep trying.

Whether it’s fear, greed, or actual attraction doesn’t matter to them, in their world they scored a win.

The AI will take care of it.

No humans, no hunger.

The OpenBSD folks are a weird bunch. Literally the entire Internet is built on top of their tools and libraries, and they just ignore the fame and keep dwelling in their basements.

The part is what drives me mad. Podcasts and audiobooks are not that hard to do properly. You could very easily separate them into distinct apps or at least a special tab that acts like a proper player. Instead audiobooks are basically albums.

There’s a shuffle button.

On an audiobook.

Spotify actually doesn’t make that much profit, if any.

But the record labels are major shareholders and definitely influence the pricing structure. Spotify is essentially a marketing frontend for the record industry.

The alternative to nuclear isn’t coal…

And if you seriously think regulations are the problem, you’re denser than the lead shielding you want to get rid of.

“Base load” is not that much. Off shore wind is almost always blowing, and all the other renewables can be stored via batteries or hydrogen (or tanks, in case of biogas). Yes, that’s a whole lot of stuff, but the technology exists, can be produced on large scale and (most importantly) doesn’t cause any path dependencies.

Nuclear is extremely expensive, as the article highlighted. And to be cost effective, power has to be produced more or less constantly. Having a nuclear power plant just for the few hours at night when wind and sun don’t work is insane - and insanely expensive.

Some people have way too much time and way too disturbing world views to be allowed on the Internet.

And how many people do you think could accurately, or even ballpark, estimate their workload? I couldn’t tell you, whether my workload would benefit from more e or p cores and by how much.

What you’re implying here is an illusion of accuracy. You want accurate numbers for something that you can’t really judge anyway. These numbers don’t mean anything to you, they just give you the illusion of knowing what’s going on. It’s the “close door” button in an elevator.

For example being able to get a grasp of the rough performance from the have.

i5 10500 is faster than i5 10400. But is 6p4e better than 4p8e?

It’s illusionary to fit everything about a CPU into its name. What you’re proposing is essentially the entire value column of the spec sheet concatenated.

You really think, that is more readable?
