Do they claim that though? Neo-liberal economists often adopt praxeology openly, and the other ones are mostly deluding themselves.

Perfect example, Skynet is an excellent engineer. Be like Skynet.

Hydroelectric power stations still rely on steam, it’s just in another part of the cycle.

Pseudo-dermatology is also not very far away. The gap between what dermatologists and influencers say would be hilarious if gullible teenagers weren’t spending ridiculous amounts of money ruining their own skin.

Bibi needs the war to last at least until October.

Because they knew some people in the OS community would take the bait.

I agree with your worries about the second point. Mandating thing like this by law is bad. But having a standard on its own is not. Ideally this should have come from an industry standard and not a legal one, but inaction is part of what got us into this mess.

On one hand. It’s the same as the standards we already have to store email adresses and phone numbers for Posix users it’s harmless. And honestly, it’s also useful for application developers that want to implement parental controls (and despite what the tinfoil hat gallery is saying this is important). It would stop being harmless if it was tied to real IDs, but currently that would be strawman argument.

On another hand, if you prevent Linux adoption in a large demographic, you remove a threat to big tech’s dominance.

Getting desktop Linux banned from somewhere like California instead of doing something that is effectively harmless is only helping Google, Apple, and Microsoft.

Earth is in the middle of its lifecycle (probably even a bit before the middle). Thinking humans are the ultimate anything is hubris.

Long term? The ecosystem. If we don’t change course, at some point the species that goes extinct is us, and nature is going to recover. Life has survived much worse than what we can do.

Holy mother of hacky solutions!

There’s also the addendum to “s6” which is a bit more interesting, since it seems it found a viable niche outside of hobbyist distros. Somehow I had never heard about it before.

Which is still very rough around the edges. There’s still software that doesn’t work properly at all in some setups, and flatseal is still essential to make some other apps work as expected.

Worse, the ads on apt are because they put security updates behind a paywall for LTS - granted it’s free for home users but still requires to sign in to get access to them.

Most commercially and home grown produced figs are self-pollinating, only a few wild fig species require wasps to pollinate them. So most people will only ever see wasp-free figs.
