I don't know why this reads so skeptical:

"The team has been setting the groundwork for new components/drivers to be written in Rust but as these are developed, we're running into some roadblocks," he told us. "[Linux creator Linus] Torvalds doesn't seem to care, or perhaps believes they are appropriate. Time will tell."

Some days ago what I read was this:

Switching to a more modern topic, the introduction of the Rust language into Linux, Torvalds is disappointed that its adoption isn't going faster. "I was expecting updates to be faster, but part of the problem is that old-time kernel developers are used to C and don't know Rust. They're not exactly excited about having to learn a new language that is, in some respects, very different. So there's been some pushback on Rust."

But you'll at least let us take a smaller or bigger peek right? Don't worry we have a screen recorder ready, you don't have to do anything.

All that because they made a distro based in Ubuntu but got rid of snap? Ok...

cat

Ahhhhh, fuck. I'm quite noob with linux. I got into some rabbit hole trying to read the docs. I found 2 man pages, one is cat(1) and the other cat(1p). Apparently the 1p is for POSIX.

If someone could help me understand... As far as I could understand I would normally be concerned with (1), but what would I need to be doing to be affected by (1p)?

Experimental: 1.1.104

Stable: We are trying to get there some day

I don't like mixing with the cars so anything that is not that. I'd probably wait to reach the end of MUP and take whichever green light is on. Either the left or the front crosswalk. And then wait on the opposite side for the other green light.

Windows hits end of life in 2025 you say? Welp.

I saw the other day a profile full of PRs, all diffs were changes from passing code through an autoformater.

I care because by not using linux there is money going to microsoft or apple hands, which are not very friendly to user rights.

Fearing a bit to say it but Haskell. I know that it is a different concept, but it's not just that for me. The way the elements are separated, sometimes spaces sometimes symbols, makes it hard for me to understand how things are grouped, and what gets plugged into what.
