While the Win10 eol annoys me on a personal level, I don't know what good extending the support would do; it would just kick the bucket forward with no real solution. If MS added another year of free support then we would be just in t

Well, the project started 12 years ago (as sgsh), so that fits into your 10-20 years ago window :)

Sure, sh might be fit for it's purpose, but I wouldn't call it "extremely flexible"

I don't understand what "managing" this accomplishes?

It is funny how insular and US centric many of the comments here are. In fact many countries do have legislation requiring consent in many scenarios for photographing or publishing photos. And it turns out that it is not actually very probl

It is worth noting that at the turn of the century x86 wasn't yet so utterly dominant yet. Alphas, PowerPC, MIPS, SPARC and whatnot were still very much a thing. So that is part why running x86 software was not as high priority, and ma

It is probably because you have run it so long that you have good reputation and less issues. Too bad we don't have time machine to go back to ninties to start building up reputation.

> The best way to ensure a good reputation is to obtain your own address space from a RIR. There is the slight problem that RIRs ran out of (v4) addresses almost a decade ago.

I'm not disputing the influence of jacquard machines in general, but there is big difference between "having influence on computing" and "is a computer".

I think that threat is generally overblown in these discussions. Yes, container escape is less difficult than VM escape, but it still requires major kernel 0day to do; it is by no means easy to accomplish. Doubly so if you have some decent

Worth noting that weaving and knitting are two different production processes.

Some would be wrong. While the use of punch cards was significant, I struggle to see jacquard looms doing computation in any meaningful sense.

On the other hand kids (and adults) not getting enough exercise is a modern health crisis. More kids kicking a ball would be significant improvement over current status quo of kids staring at brainrot.

It is far less of double standard than what you think. The key question is the legitimacy and mandate of the government. Western governments can claim legitimacy and mandate through democratic process (even if it is not perfect), which form

Problem was that even for multithreaded workloads the "8 core" FX-8150 did not always win against 4 hyperthreaded Intel cores. That is pretty apparent from e.g. the benchmarks here: https://www.phoronix.com/review&

We are somewhere between market for lemons and a race to the bottom. It's both difficult to even a tech-savvy person to know if some problem is caused by acpi, and also if some acpi implementation is actually high quality.

Lot of this comes from kernel though, cgroups and processes have tons of knobs to tweak and systemd merely exposes those.

selinux doesn't really provide anything like ProtectHome or PrivateTmp mentioned in the article. SELinux only does access control, while systemd can create new resources that are scoped to specific service.

Tbh east on top would in some ways be more interesting because map projections usually are symmetrical across the equator but are not rotationally symmetrical. So east up map would have potentially different shapes of land masses, while sou
