I will never vote for SPD again. Bunch of rotten traitors.

It’s even worse: It answers the questions correctly enough that most people cannot tell the difference – but still not reliably correctly. Meaning you get answer that sound very convincing, but could easily still be dead wrong.

Have you tried to actually use GNU/Hurd?

So I guess I’m both “Chad” and “Schizo” at the same time.

And also “Cool And Good” on the side. (I run Fedora on a few machines. It’s a relatively hassle-free no-nonsense distro that usually works for what i need.)

Spoken like someone who never accidentally typed something into the wrong terminal or accidentally used the wrong keyboard.

Funny thing about that one, gnuplot is not under GPL and has nothing to do with GNU.

I appreciate what he’s done for VR and retro gaming.

He took money from a lot of donors, used that money to get patents for his company, then sold that company, including the patents, to Facebook (now Meta).

I do not appreciate what he did there.

It’s not like Putin hasn’t tried that…

It’s hard to believe how insanely long it took, and still is taking to get a production-ready, solid ntfs driver in linux.

I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.

From the photo, there seems to have been a substantial-thickness concrete wall and then a brick wall. Obviously, they were still not enough, but it wasn’t just a brick wall.

And about the wooden shelves: So what? They are not security relevant or customer facing, they just need to work as shelves.

The password for the hard drive encryption and the system login are two separate things, so, yes, this combination is easily possible. You’ll have to input a password for system bootup, but not for logging in.

How advisable that combination is is another question entirely.

If it’s supposed to represented the union between those two, than why are the green and the orange regions separated by a giant white border?

Cockroaches kill each other and eat each other…

It would be pretty mean to not pay him that point – but technically, I’m pretty sure he cannot legally demand payment after quite that much time. Pretty sure purely civil claims expire after some time of not being pressed.

I don’t even know which Linux specific fork you are referring to, it could be either a git fork or fork(2).

The Scrooge McDuck avatar lighting a cigar with a dollar note makes me think this was either satire to begin with, or the original poster has lost any and all contact with reality.

Error correction and compression are usually at odds.

Not really. If your data compresses well, you can compress it by easily 60, 70%, then add Reed-Solomon forward error correction blocks at like 20% redundancy, and you’d still be up overall.

Wut?
