Even here, the guy you’re responding to is getting down voted to oblivion (for Lemmy anyways) for an opinion that I have echoed elsewhere and gotten the opposite response.
Not having the majority opinion of this community seems to mean downvotes too. The only real difference is that reddit has enough staying power for people to put up with it.
Since we’re talking that era, Sliders was a great show early on and it’s a tragedy nobody knows it.
I think having “LTS” mean nothing is counterproductive. Why would anyone agree to apply “meaningless” labels like that? It would only confuse people more if we applied a label which implied support but nobody was actually obligated to support it any more than another release.
That might be true, but claiming that people only moved because they were propagandized into doing so by a for-profit company is absurd.
This is incredibly reductive and at best looking at mumble through Rose tinted glasses.
Mumble has had a rocky past as a useful piece of software and it’s absolutely not been a discord competitor any more than TeamSpeak is a discord competitor.
Maybe it’s changed recently, but mumble has not had the feature set that made discord useful in the first place.
It’s a bit of a mixed bag for me to be honest. I understand the desire to accurately package dependencies and maintain control over the dependencies without relying on a third party host, but I feel like everyone (whether that’s rust, node, python, ruby, etc) should just maintain a separate registry. As in not package it in the “Debian repos” but a debian mirror of crates.io that the debian maintainers maintain. To whit I can just download the Debian rust toolchain and have it be pointing at the Debian rust package mirror.
I’m sure there’s a lot of extra infra required for something like that, but I genuinely believe it’s more sane to try and get these languages to adopt that, rather than what we have now.
I could be easily swayed another way, but that’s how I feel currently.
I don’t know that the OP or anyone else necessarily disagrees with you here. It’s one of the reasons that I believe we’re fucked when the bubble pops. Every other sector is shrinking otherwise, which is only making the mania more extreme.
Trump has fucked the economy, but I don’t expect the next administration to be able to pull off a miracle and fix the mess we’ve created within the next 10 years. Foreign relations and our status as the reserve currency are shot to hell. The US is going to have to answer for our behavior.
Phoronix comment sections never fail to be cesspools
The stress-ng package is like 5MB.
There are a lot of possible ways to validate this, namely just downloading a benchmarking tool and using it. Is there a reason you don’t want to do that?
I think you’re fundamentally misunderstanding what this project is working to achieve. Why wouldn’t a web server be a basic requirement for an identity provider?
He’s at -5 at the moment. Depending on what instances you have blocked, you’re going to see different amounts. It doesn’t mean those people aren’t there.
