>Do you want more games to be played on Linux or not? This is meaningless if you change the definition of "on Linux" to mean "on Windows".

There is no "library surgery". This is EXACTLY what people are forced to do on Windows already: bundle all dependencies. >No game developer is ever going to individually package, and consistently repackage, their game for 20 d

No video game has any use for GTK+. XLib is tiny by modern standards.

>Win32 ABI is the most stable and rock solid compared to the messy moving target of the Linux world, Blatant lie bordering on disinformation. The only reason it is a "stable ABI" is that every dev of every windows program bundl

"Authoritative" has a particular meaning. You might have intended to say "influential". You didn't. I can only reply based on what you said.

Yeah man talking is the same as murdering people and hanging them from trees. How can you be this stupid and still figure out how to register an account?

Do you have any examples?

What does this even mean? Stop assuming everyone in the world thinks the same way you do and has the same pants-on-head-retarded hatred of insurance companies. Guess what? Sane people in sane countries recognise that insurance isnt the best

None of what you linked to has anything at all to do with the definition of the word 'insurance', which existed as a concept before your shitty, racist, backwater colony even existed you stupid, ignorant, parochial American except

So much for "Free speech is now legal on Twitter". The only thing worse than cancel culture pushed by woke terminally-online uni students with too much time on their hands is cancellation pushed by advertisers. I cannot fathom wh

I think the number one topic should be actually doing it at all. Too many people just talk about getting exercise, or endlessly watch videos about it, or endlessly read blogs and articles and guides, but never actually do it, or do very li

Far more people are hurt by not doing enough exercise than are hurt by doing too much.

That is about latency, but Amdahl's law is about throughput I think.

It isn't open source to anyone, by the universally accepted definition of "open source" that has obtained for decades.

Stallman is correct when he says that "free" and "open source" are synonymous. They reflect different philosophies but the same set of licences.

There is nothing wrong with shared libraries. If you want to run an old program, you need to also run old libraries, and old network services it communicates with, and maybe old hardware too. Libraries are no different. In practice it jus

What drugs are you on? If you pay a percentage of your income mandated by the government for some service then that is income tax. Insurance is a private contract with premiums based on actuarial assessment of risk. This is not some dist

That is not insurance. It is a tax.

I have never had any issue running old programs. Shared libraries have nothing to do with Linux. They are an entirely userspace concept.

You are dreadfully confused. This has nothing to do with maximising health insurance company profits.

Web browsers are the worst offenders for what I described: highly dynamic retained-mode GUIs with huge amounts of memory allocation all over the place. They are bloated and very much badly designed, so even simple websites slow any 5+-year
