Good point on Keith Packard. He was never seemed keen on Wayland and was still suggesting improvement ideas on X11 'till 6-7 years ago.

Small but a crucial correction: By XFree86, you meant X.org. XFree86 was the first X11 implementation used by linux distributions from 90's and 00's. Then, in mid 2000's FreeDesktop guys forked it as X.org and convinced all l

iOS 15 is like what, 4 years old? it's ridiculously short. (yeah, I know a device running ios 15 was also supported before being updated to that version, but it's still short)

If I learned one thing about SSD firmwares/controllers it's to be sure of nothing. Especially when the market is flooded with cheap controllers that can barely keep up with line speeds I'm very much doubtful that they're

Cheap DRAM-less controllers usually wait until the drive is almost full to start folding. And then they'll only be folding just enough to free up some space. Most benchmark results are consistent with this behavior.

Smoother, sure. I'm talking about interface name changes. it's nice you haven't encountered these releases but they sure happened in Debian, too.
