Half of the linux ecosystem is personal projects.
Linux itself started as
just a hobby, won’t be big and professional like gnu
It’s not useless as you can learn from it.
Almost. It doesn’t try to solve all the problems, though. I’d say it’s a passion project like Haiku and TempleOS.
From interview: it started as a research project. The author wanted a distribution that uses the least system resources with maximum performance.
He started with archlinux, moved on to gentoo and to go even deeper - found the infamous “linux from scratch” and started to shape his own distro.
Ok, because of this post - I decided to bite the bullet and try wayland again. And it was much better experience this time:
I’ve installed sway “pattern” on OpenSuse-Tumbleweed and:
waybar absolutely supports clicking tray icons.
I confused it with swaybar, that’s installed with sway by default and should be an i3bar-compatible. Waybar doesn’t seem to support i3bar protocol, but anyway, after I configured it - it’s like 95% there from what I want.
I could switch tomorrow if I could do my current setup:
Last time I tried Wayland in December, I had issues with waybar not supporting clicking tray applet icons. Also I’ve ported my dropdown terminals script to support sway - and it worked half the time, like, literally every second key press was ignored.
On one hand I have X session that currently has no downsides for me, on other - wayland that has no upsides. Tell me, why would I switch?

If it was near the shore - they might’ve stole the section of wire. Copper is really expensive.
it’s a marketing stunt not a logic-related problem
He might do like 2-5 deliveries per trip if they align.
it seems to be a variation of “cargospace” meme.
Sorry, I meant to write that Github is not a software distribution, but a code distribution platform.
And ‘mostly harmless’ as in it’s not inherently malicious - you can use it for harmless stuff. It’s merely a tool.
Github is not a distribution platform it was never meant to be one. It’s a developer platform for code distribution and collaboration. And UI is designed around that.
A lot of projects use it as a distribution platform, but they’re wrong - it’s always better to have a web page with simple download button for casual “ordinary” people.
But, this case is special: this mostly harmless tool is designed and almost exclusively used to stalk / doxx / hack people =|. So, it’s not in developers interest to make it widely available and easy to install.
It’s also a good filter for useful videos vs ‘content’.
Biology fact - fish can reproduce externally. Female lays the unfertilised eggs and male fish squeezes milt (spermes) on top.
Yes.
In theory this issue can be solved with LD_PRELOAD trick. E.g. redirect all/most/some fopen
calls to “$HOME” to some other directory. But before I try to tackle it myself: is there already a similar solution like that?
I thought about this for some time. An anarchy would always collapse into governed state.
First, imagine the perfect scenario where there no authority and world is just a lot of tiny city-sized communities. It would take just a single bad actor to form a state, start invading neighboring communities and growing in power. In response - other communities would be forced to group into increasingly bigger states to have a chance to oppose influence from bigger/richer states.
This thought experiment also works if violent takeover is replaced by economic one. Think of cartels and monopolies.

Zip is fine (I prefer 7z), until you want to preserve attributes like ownership and read/write/execute rights.
Some zip programs support saving unix attributes, other - do not. So when you download a zip file from the internet - it’s always a gamble.
Tar + gzip/bz2/xz is more Linux-friendly in that regard.
Also, zip compresses each file separately and then collects all of them in one archive.
Tar collects all the files first, then you compress the tarball into an archive, which is more efficient and produces smaller size.
