There is always the Joe editor, if you like good ol’ Wordstar. :)

Nah, win can have it.

Run, Forest! Ruuun!

That post changed my life, gave me a great hobby, which became a career, and still puts food on the table for me and my family to this day. Thank you, Linus.

Yet. They will come for you, too, eventually.

Now there is no excuse, Nano users! :)

2 billion was perfect. Let’s get back to that and stay there.

That Wayland works for everybody.

It’s far more ready than Wayland, get it into these distro’s installers! Are you listening, distros?

Linux VM with 90% of cpu and memory. Use it for almost everything. Have it configured as NAT so it can share the vpn connection from the host laptop.

WSL

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bcachefs

Bcachefs is a copy-on-write (COW) file system for Linux-based operating systems.[3] Features include caching,[4] full file-system encryption using the ChaCha20 and Poly1305 algorithms,[5] native compression[4] via LZ4, gzip[6] and Zstandard,[7] snapshots,[4] CRC-32C and 64-bit checksumming.[3] It can span block devices, including in RAID configurations.[5]

I see it has an audit back in 2017, but I’ve yet to find anything newer. The finding was good, but suggested further audit be done.

Bcachefs, and bcachefs on root. Need something with filesystem level encryption instead of LUKS, and *ubuntu’s and derivatives have all abandoned ZFS on root installs now.

No ZFS on root install (encrypted or not). They removed it from the installer. :(

Closed source isn’t a crime. However trying to ruin a company with exclusionary tactics can be. Linux kernel devs and Wayland devs have all conspired to harm a company.

Maybe. But wishes don’t have to be possible. :)

I appreciate the fruit of NVidia’s efforts… But that they were forced into it by a pack of wolves is morally wrong, and those responsible need to be ousted from open source, blacklisted from any IT work forever for needlessly inflicting harm on a company and it’s users over a licensing preference.

Which will still be enough for Linus to prevent NVidia from getting full access to the kernel internals.

How is it nonsense? Linus himself in the kernel mailing list and in public speaking has repeatedly gone after NVidia due to their licensing. In the kernel, he’s repeatedly cut NVidia off from using various kernel internals because they aren’t open source; attempting to cripple their driver. That’s fact. Check your history on it.

As for wayland, it could have been written to do absolutely anything they wanted it to do and be. They chose to not support NVidia due to the licensing, purposely choosing an incompatible way to display to try and force NVidia to change or to for NVidia to fall from it’s spot as market leader.

I feel bad for NVidia, caving this. An open source driver coming out, them adding features to work with wayland instead of the other way around. It wreaks of extortion by the kernel and wayland devs, to damage market share if the devs don’t get what they want. I hope they get sued for it and lose everything for it. It casts a terrible light on the open source community that it would make companies either capitulate, or the community tries to cut the company off at the knees. It was wrong and should be severely punished to prevent it ever happening again. As it is, no hardware company should trust Linux or offer to support it in any way, because it might turn around and bite you as it did NVidia.
