You fools it's supposed to contain them, now they are on the loose.

"Bro just use sockets lol" completely misses the point. When you decide you want message based IPC, you need to then design and implement:

  • Message formatting
  • Service addressing
  • Data marshalling
  • Subscriptions and publishing
  • Method calling, marshalling of arguments and responses
  • Broadcast and 1:1 messaging

And before you know it you've reimplemented dbus, but your solution is undocumented, full of bugs, has no library, no introspection, no debugging tools, can only be used from one language, and in general is most likely pure and complete garbage.

Power mods: moderating is a thankless job, hard work, and reddit does not recognize how important we are!

Everyone else: then stop

Power mods: >:(

Farewell, Red Hat. Thanks for all your good work throughout the years. Sucks you sold out to IBM

This makes no sense because dbus uses unix domain sockets.

It sounds like you don't actually understand what dbus is.

Don't be a lazybones

Attention and awareness of the ways in which modern technology is harming ourselves.

We're providing people with the electronic equivalent of heroin, from a young age, completely rewiring our brains and detaching us from nature and each other.

Alternatively you can use and support a true community-driven editing environment dedicated to preserving your freedom, like vim/neovim or emacs.

Bro it's for your safety just let me track you and have all your private data think of the children and drug cartels and stuff dude just trust me

Everyone should just use the flatpak. You can get the latest version, latest Mesa, latest mangohud etc on any distro and it will all work exactly the same.

its possible to write a single text file that is valid bash/dash/zsh/powershell and valid JavaScript all at the same time. It sounds impossible, but there is enough overlapping syntax that actually any javascript program can be converted into a valid bash script without mangling the JS code.

I'm both impressed and horrified

Linux runs well on practically every CPU architecture.

There are several high quality community run distributions which aren't beholden to corporate tools.

Reminder to read the official git book. It's free and it's useful. My dudes, stop pretending to understand your tools and actually learn them.

Fittingly, Fedora 39 arrives 20 years and 1 day after Fedora Core 1 was released November 6, 2003.

C, because it can run everywhere and I won't be limited on the things I can make

Unfortunately shell script is not as portable as you might be anticipating. Different distro run different shells, with different settings, and also different tools. Think BSD grep vs GNU grep.

Linux has dominated the router firmware market for a loooong time. Nearly all vendor firmware for consumer routers is Linux based.

Kim plans to travel to Russia this month to meet President Vladimir Putin to discuss weapons supplies to Moscow.

Hey Kim, remember all that rusted Soviet gear we gave you? I need it back, and it better work!

This is the opinion of someone who has not used a Thinkpad nor a MacBook built within the past three years.

Garry hates Linux. Has this changed? I don't think s&box will be native

With the flatpak it barely even matters which distro you use. Flatpak steam & mesa and go play some games. I game on Debian stable now.

You could buy a GPU made by a company that actually supports Linux and its users.

A few years ago I bought a librem 13 and it was the biggest piece of trash I've ever had the displeasure of owning.
