Yeah, the new names reflect what's happening kinda better, but still, what the fuck for?
And all that being said, I can roll rust-std and rustc five minor versions or even more back and everything still builds fine.

@sysrq @kirby @romin
Even Rust isn't that bad, its standard library is very limited and popular crates often get changes for changes' sake, the most recent one that pissed me off being clap, the popular crate for working with command line arguments — I'm reading a book that was published a few years ago and the examples do not work in the newest version already! The changes are trivial: they have renamed a couple of classes (e.g. App to Command), a few functions here and there…

@sysrq @kirby @romin
Yeah, exactly! They should've left the language alone in the state it was described in the Go Programming Language book — it was perfect!
They are introducing breaking changes that do not really bring anything new to the table — but community seems fine with it: when you try to build a more or less active project with gccgo, turns out things are already broken and you have to "backport" things.

In the light of recent events, not such a crazy idea 😁
I've also disabled WASM in my unupdated Firefox to not even start playing this game — Element was the sole reason why it was enabled, but now that they insist on me using only the latest Firefox, I'm out 😤

Damn! Federated social media moment 😩
I can take a screenshot for you, but I just realised that they are all users of this instance and they are talking about this problem appearing after Pleroma update on their instance so maybe it's their own edge case.
In any case, don't worry, I'm pretty sure, at least some of them are grown up enough to file a bug properly 😅
On my end it was a mere joke, sorry. If I experience this on my own instance after the update, I'll contact you, thanks!

Shitposting, I didn't mean to offend.
It's a reference to this thread with suspiciously big number of people experiencing the same problem: https://clubcyberia.co/objects/2640dc8a-c03d-4fb0-ae6e-181bf7405db9
But I haven't updated my own Pemorler instance yet, and I don't use PleromaFE much anyway, can neither confirm, nor deny it — maybe it already got fixed IDK 🤷

I agree and expect performance to be the biggest downside. And things can always go south with that driver as I don't think it gets enough testing under heavy workloads, its primary use cases being, as already mentioned — data recovery, and copying files from/to your Windows partition when dual booting, not serving it over the network. Any filesystem can get corrupt of course, but this one just might have higher chance 🤷

This means you're a werehacker — you turn into a hacker in your sleep.
Because as we all know, you have to wear a hoodie to do the hacking 🤓

@millihertz
Won't doing NAT be a problem for the SoCs we have today?
If the phone were to act as a VPN box, it would most certainly explode, but won't even simple NAT work become a significant workload at such throughputs? 🤔
Besides, I don't think a lot of people packs such a bandwidth even on their home wired connections — I don't. Why would they want it everywhere?
There is potential demand for that of course, such as VR, but… I don't know.

NTT Docomo will launch fast 6.6Gbps 5G service in August with the Sony Xperia 1 VI:

6.6 Gbps! 🤯
Why would anyone ever need a bandwidth/throughput like that on a phone?

Все мы знаем, что счастливые часов не наблюдают — а в России ведь все счастливые, так ведь? 😏
Ты что, против власти? 😡
Ну вот и нечего!

@kirby @romin
But even Rust isn't as bad as that: having limited resources is understandable, closing the issues with "this is deprecated", just to not invest any effort into solving — isn't.
There are Zig and Nim — which are mostly out of corporate control and are fine languages.

@kirby @romin
Nah, but I don't think we should be playing along with this "move fast and break things" and in the long run, I think it doesn't seem to work.
It was bad enough with libraries, but with programming languages it's just sickening, but ultimately it depends on governance — Go was prone to this from the get go (a pun, hehe), Python fell the victim of being used everywhere, little by little they have transitioned into catering to this crowd without even realising it.

@lain @kaia
I'm not familiar with these abbreviation and that made me think that this is a computer joke: something about timer interrupt handler not being able to sleep 🤪
OMG, am I the one who would be talking about the superiority of Arch Linux? 😱
To my defense I can add that I've never used Arch Linux 😏

@kirby @romin
And Python is turning into the same kind of shite BTW: new ways to do old things, deprecating things in one release, and not deprecating that again in the newer one, which is only month apart.
Same architecture support shenanigans, look at this: https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-committers@python.org/thread/K757345KX6W5ZLTWYBUXOXQTJJTL7GW5/
"OMG, my machine broke, so we're lowering the architecture to Tier 3"
Python used to work everywhere, soon they will end up with Darwin on Apple silly cone, and x86_64 on Windows in Linux GLibC.

@kirby @romin
Then they are adding shit no one asks for — that doesn't enable you to do new things, but allows you to do the same things differently — and they are adding them for the sake of being different.
Look at the typical Go dev here: https://www.dolthub.com/blog/2024-07-12-golang-range-iters-demystified/
OMG, there is a new way to do iterators, let me update my library to use that right now!
WTF?! I'm not playing this game!
