Packaged products ready to use? No.
Libraries which I use in my own projects? I at least have a quick look at the implementation, often a more detailed analysis if issues pop up.

Giving birth to yourself - the ultimate self hosting

Welcome!

For a while now Linux has been better at most personal computing things except gaming. And for server uses an even longer time.

There are some specific hardware/software situations where you’ll need Windows but it’s unlikely to happen at home. Unless you have very peculiar hobbies.

I’m using their optimized x64v4 repos on an otherwise plain Arch. No idea about any performance difference, I just want to make sure all the CPU progress in recent years doesn’t go to waste.

Cursor is not really anything that I feel a need to customize. It’s a pointer that changes shape according to context, and the default implementations usually do it at least decently.

TIL Winamp was still active as a project

Alpine for example uses musl, and Gentoo offers it as an option.
I don’t completely understand the benefits, my own programming experience is several layers away from inner workings of an OS, but at least some distros claim there is space for improvement.

The role of a distribution is to curate packages - select the right combination of versions and verify if it works together. Providing package repositories is also a big one, imagine if you had to compile everything on your machine yourself on every update (khm gentoo khm).

Other than that there isn’t really a lot of space for innovation. After you have a kernel, some base packages, package manager, and maybe a DE, you can install everything else yourself.
The main point of differentiation these days in on the package management side - do you want a rolling release, or a more conservative approach.

There is one point of innovation left, but it highly technical and somewhat risky for everyday users - libc alternatives. The C standard library is one of the few core packages in a distro that can’t really be replaced by the user.

And then it gives you the most generic answer how to run a docker build, that doesn’t actually address the problem

Sigh unfortunately it’s true. One thing I learned about American culture through the years is that everything must have a race. Food, drink, sports, music, neighborhoods, bus lines, careers … Everything is assigned a race and only people of that race can use it without criticism

I wish we can give the mandate of Palestine back to Britain. Not because it’ll be good for anyone there but because memes making fun of the British are actually funny.

Making decisions in God’s name - that should be heretical or something?

The mayan one in 2012 was the best one so far. There was some real hype about it, movies, media, news, everyone was on it.

In the end it turned out that it was the day Gangnam Style became the first youtube video reaching 1 billion views. Some would say it really was the apocalypse.

I’m sorry but you can be violently anti-religion without being a fascist.

Yes, that was exactly my point. I’m complaining that in the current political scene there are no parties that separate those ideas.
And yes, banning the public display will only make it go underground and become stronger, this is why it’s so important to separate anti-religion from fascism.
