60% reduction of a small number is a small number. Go look at how much the numbers dropped from 2022 to 2024. The problem was effectively solved already.

Wrong. The entire federal government has $8 million dollars worth of Politico Pro subscriptions (like Bloomberg terminal for public policy). USAID spent $24k on those subscriptions. Musk is full of shit. I have yet to see an example o

Disliking GNOME is not a Fedora problem, there are plenty of other spins to use than the default Workstation. I agree that GNOME's defaults aren't great, but with a few extensions and tweaks it's a very nice desktop. I just

My games work great, I actually get better FPS than I do on Windows for many of them. I use the Steam flatpak. Admittedly I have had some sporadic issues with games not starting or having very bad FPS, but I have no idea who is actually at

Nobody is asking Christoph to maintain Rust code. Just work with the R4L developers occasionally when a breaking change happens, the same way he likely would need to do so with every C-based consumer of those APIs. But he doesn't want

>I wonder why that C file which maps a more abstract Rust-friendly C-API on top of the existing API can't live inside the Rust directory and build structure. That's what this patch does. It's what the patch _always_ did.

It's a bit more subtle than that. They're innovating on the frontiers of the science of bribery. If you get someone to pay you $25 million to "settle a civil lawsuit" that you filed against them, it's not a bribe,
