Who could've guessed that the "public private partnership" was extremely ineffective and only serves to funnel tax payer dollars to private owners while giving kick backs to politicians. Wow. Who knew.
You don't even have to go that far, you can just use torsniff. But be aware there is a lot of nsfw material and potentially illegal material for all I know.
Definitely a few. Media companies often send out infringement notices to ISPs to be forwarded to the user and I would guess this is how they get those IPs
Wayland is a lot smoothet than X. The colors are better too and there's just something about how the pixels are rendered that looks a million times better. It becomes apparent after using Wayland and then going back to X.
This dude is definitely into some hysterical right wing conspiracies. I remember he got yelled at by Linus Torvalds on the LKML for trying to spread anti-vax bs.
I always find it ironic how people like this non-stop whine about "politics in mah FOSS" or video games or w/e, but will turn around and write a manifesto in the README drenched in right wing politically charged slop.
ultimately I really don't care what they spend their time doing, some people still want X11 and if they can keep it running then good for them. I use Wayland because it looks a lot better and is a lot smoother. Its that simple.
Its honestly pretty dang good now. I can bootstrap Zig from C in about 3-5 minutes, and then use the self-hosted stage3 compiler to compile Zig very quickly (under 1 minute iirc) Once the cache kicks in, its even faster. I guess my overall gauge on this is the impression I get. Zig build times never annoy me and I never think about it... especially compared to clang, gcc and Rust.
Yay for Zig! I'm a big Zig fan. It's seemless interop with C makes it super fun. I really enjoy writing code in a C-style way. Its still got some rough edges, but its definitely super fun and enjoyable to write imo.
No one said third-party ads, the description is perfectly accurate to what is happening. The knee jerk reaction to call it sensationalist is odd to me.
Ghostty, Mitchell, and the community around Ghostty, are all really amazing and pleasant to work with. I've had a lot of fun hanging out in the Discord, and sending in a couple of PR's. Everyone is really kind and accommodating. It's a pretty great example of how to run a community and open-source project, even this early on.
typical austerity measures. The US and the UK power holders have massive incentives to privatize healthcare and schooling, so they de-fund and starve the beast with the sole purpose of trying to get people to support laws that turn public institutions into private ones. "a government small enough to drown in the bath water"
With healthcare this is especially disastrous. In the US for example, most smaller towns don't have a hospital and many don't have any doctors whatsoever, they have to drive a hundred miles or more to get care, and we spend a fuck ton of tax money medivacing (air lifting) these people to major city centers. These places used to have hospitals, but they weren't profitable.
Then these people get disillusioned with the system, are sold the lie that private healthcare will fix all of their problems, and politicians and health corporations runaway with the bag while we citizens in the US pay more for basic healthcare than any OEC nation while also having the worst health outcomes of OEC nations on par with so called "3rd world" countries. Its genuinely pathetic.
