Heh, hadn’t seen KDE like this in ages, it’s been a while

In that line, is there an open standards, no Google required answer to the Chromecast?

We’re seeing the fallout from a commercial service used for public interest communication falling in real time with Twitter, so many public service things that depended or still depend on Twitter have outright broke as it turns into raw sewage and people flee it. That should have NEVER been the main communications medium, and now the price is being paid. I understand as i too am in a place where WhatsApp is near-mandatory, but this is something that WILL have bad consequences sooner or later.

I didn’t knew about lsof -i, noted

There is, and there always will be issues, this is not going to change, much less in Linux where the hardware manufacturers are many, many times offering zero help and less documentation, but they pass, they’re fixed, and things advance and improve all the time. This happens in every OS. However we’re almost certainly safe here from changes done just for the sake of profit (with extremely rare exceptions which get fought back by the community, I’m looking at you, Canonical!), so I’d say we’re MUCH better off on this side of the fence.

Good old Scunthorpe problem

Guessing from other comments, looks like annoying and unusually common issues using Matrix

Because money

On the Reddit thread people, at least one of them tagged as a KDE dev, mentions that widgets NEED to be able to run arbitrary code. I am absolutely baffled by this.

A good idea i have been spreading around relevant people lately is to use ShellCheck as you code in Bash, integrate it in your workflow, editor or IDE as relevant to you (there’s a commandline tool as well as being available for editors in various forms), and pass your scripts through it, trying to get the warnings to go away. That should fix many obvious errors and clean up your code a bit.

No matter how many constraints you add, it’s never enough, that’s the weakness of a model that only knows language and nothing else

It hasn’t happened much, but i’ve loved the few real life versions of this strip that have happened with people posting it as a response

Pretty much this, they don’t deserve hate but i won’t recommend them either

Nope, for that use this one, which is also in Debian-based distros and Docker

For great justice?

Randall also had a followup t-shirt, now out of production:

“Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no”. This is no exception.

Meanwhile sysadmins:

Entitlement: the post!

Oh no, I believe no one is under any delusions that Linux is a perfect OS that does everything well and has no issues (well, beyond a few nutcases). It’s just that on Linux you CAN solve issues, you CAN find causes, you CAN solve things, and in general once it works, it just keeps working indefinitely. Compare this to windows, which has new mysterious shit frequently, that breaks in unfixable ways to the point that even now the standard troubleshooting procedure is still the three Rs: Reboot, Reinstall, Reformat, and which frequently pulls the rug on you related to support of both hardware and software, all the while being full of telemetry and ads.

It’s still a pain, just dramatically LESS of one.
