I will let you on a little secret.
The best “support” you can get is support from upstreams directly (I’m involved in both sides of that equation). But upstreams will often only “support” you when you 1. run the latest stable version 2. the upstream source code wasn’t patched willy-nilly by the packager (your distro).
So the best desktop linux experience comes with using rolling distro that gives you such packages, with Arch being the most prominent example.
The acquired knowledge that argues stability and tells you otherwise is a meme.
Never set foot in AU.
I was under the impression that Tasmania doesn’t get that cold.
Also, apparently some would rather describe Perth as Mediterranean-SouthAfrican, rather than Mediterranean-Californian 😉
It implies that the value of their policy work is significantly below…
It’s always safe to assume that value to be negative unless proven otherwise actually.
Monthly Reminder: High or low, all Linux usage stats are fake.
BTW, the snippet I pointed to, and the whole match block, is not incoherent. It’s useless.
Alright. Explain this snippet and what you think it achieves:
tokio::task::spawn_blocking(move || -> Result { Ok(walkdir) })
Post the original code to !rust@programming.dev and point to where you got stock, because that AI output is nonsensical to the point where I’m not sure what excited you about it. A self-contained example would be ideal, otherwise, include the crates you’re using (or the use
statements).
Federation is irrelevant. Matrix is federated, yet most communities and users would lose communication if matrix.org got offline.
With, transport-only distributablity, which i think is what radicale offers, availability would depend on the peers. That means probably less availability than a big service host.
Distributed transport and storage would fix this. a la something like Tahoe-LAFS or (old) Freenet/Hyphanet. And no, IPFS is not an option because it’s generally a meme, and is pull-based, and have availability/longevity problems with metadata alone. iroh claims to be less of a meme, but I don’t know if they fixed any of the big design (or rather lack of design) problems.
At the end of the day, people can live with GitHub/GitLab/… going down for a few minutes every other week, or 1-2 hours every other month, as the benefits outweigh the occasional inconvenience by a big margin.
And git itself is distributed anyway. So it’s not like anyone was cut from committing work locally or pushing commits to a mirror.
I guess waiting on CI runs would be the most relevant inconvenience. But that’s not a distributable part of any service/implementation that exists, or can exist without being quickly gravely abused.
I wouldn’t make this argument in, for the lack of a better word, a “normie” space, but iperf3
can indeed be quickly used from your phone. It’s even packaged for Termux.
That’s what iperf3
is for.
No Flash, No Java, No Websocket, No Webshit.
Definitely don’t use axum, which provides a simple interface for routes by using derived traits. Their release cycle is way shorter, which makes them more dangerous, and they’re part of the same github user as tokio, which means they’re shilling their own product.
this but (semi)-unironucally
Ask yourself:
The fact of the matter is, none of these stats actually measure the number of users. Most of them are just totally flawed guestimates based on what is often limited web analytics data collected by them.
In fact, not even the developers of a single distribution can guess the number of people/devices using/running that specific distribution. A distribution like Debian for example has mirrors, and mirrors to some mirrors, and maybe even mirrors to some mirrors to some mirrors. So if Debian developers can’t possibly know the number of Debian users, do you think OP’s site knows the total number of Desktop Linux users?
And let’s not get into the fact that the limited data they collect itself is not even reliable. View desktop site on your Android phone’s browser. Congratulations! Now you’re a desktop Linux user. No special user-agent spoofing add-on needed. You’re even running X11. Good choice not following the Wayland fad too soon.
High or low, all Linux usage stats are fake.
Keep (Neo)Vim out of this.
As predicted, none of you got what I was referring to. Although simply doing the search would have got you there.
The EMBAG law stipulates that all public bodies must disclose the source code of software developed by or for them, unless precluded by third-party rights or security concerns.
Also as predicted, this escape hatchet exists for skipping compliance.

I appreciate the attempt at comedy. But I have no problem with Alpine (other than the snail oldmalloc performance). I even contributed a port fix or two.
The more interesting part that should have been read from my comment was that Chimera DOES NOT use GCC. Not to mention that it ships non-GNU coreutils that are usable by desktop users. While Alpine has it’s GNU coreutils package overriding busybox because that’s what most users would want. So that’s another GNU component any non-meme non-turbo-minimalist desktop user would be using on Alpine.
If you’re not into tiling, install openbox and a panel of your choosing. You will quickly find that you don’t need a DE at all.
