Rust has almost nothing to do with Mozilla these days though.

If we hypothize that we’re already in a sort of cyberwar where different nations apply these platforms to influence the people of other nations to their selfish gains, TikTok can be thought of being the enemy whereas Youtube/FB/even Twitter are sort of friendly.

Or well, that’s how it should be, but in the real world all of these platforms are used by the enemy to influence us. With TikTok they just hold all the levers.

socially he’s not terrible but when the war drums come beating he’s stepping in line for the stars and stripes

Like pretty much every Finn would these days, really.

Not sure if being against Russian aggression can be called a “political belief” as nearly all Finns pretty much agree on it.

I’m not sure if you’re kidding, so I’ll just note that Finland and Iceland are NATO member states, and Finland is notoriously against Russian aggressions due to history.

Throwing figures like that seems to be disinformation: https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/aug/27/facebook-posts/no-consensus-cost-ending-homelessness-us-or-haltin/

Seems like USA spent $51 billion in 2021 to end homelessness: https://my.neighbor.org/what-is-the-cost-of-homelessness/ – I guess that’s nowhere near enough money thrown at the problem.

No, and they never were. Hezbollah is clearly attacking Israel, however.

Certainly going for the people at the top will ultimately result in less killing. The alternative is to just try to kill all the Hezbollah members.

Is Hezbollah still attacking Israel?

I have been using X11 since 1996, and I never felt that it was very good. Sure, at the start it was better the then state-of-the-art desktop (Windows 95), mostly thanks to Linux, but that advantage went away in 2001 when OS/X was released. And even Windows went past it at some point, perhaps around Windows 7 or 8.

Wayland took a long time to get there, but it definitely is there today.

It’s not a surprise that this is happening, but the magnitude is. It’s much much worse than you expected.

What is confusing to me is why would it matter to Putin if Trump lied here? The Russian mode of government is lying and deception after all.

Does he actually think that his voters want Ukraine to lose? Oh fuck, do his voters actually want Ukraine to lose?

I tried Pop!_OS alpha1 with Cosmic Desktop and I even if the general software quality is still what you might expect from the first alpha release, I was impressed on the high-level design decisions they made with Cosmic. As a sway user who would like a bit more structure and hand-holding in my desktop, I think I’m gonna like Cosmic in a year’s time.

That’s a really good one, thanks.

It would be amazing if all their ICBMs could be just wiped out, but I’m a bit skeptical whether that’s actually true. Even without considering all the submarines.

I don’t think it does? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_reform_in_Esperanto

I don’t know. Rust seems like a better C++ to me rather than a better C. Plain C is a very simple language.

Yeah, the Rust guys’ proposition is roughly this:

Hey you guys with 20-30 years of experience doing a single thing very well. Let’s nullify most of that skillset and replace it with a thing we’re good at.

Don’t worry, we will teach you.

They’re not technically wrong about Rust being a better choice for a kernel, of course. They’re just incredibly misinformed about the social hurdles they need to climb over for it to happen.
