And that is the only product of Drew's "activism" — someone won't have the software they might want. Was anyone persuaded, did someone change his or her mind, did the world become a better place? No, he just radicalised more people for no reason at all. And it's not just pointless shit, as we can see, it's actually harmful.

No, it was just dependent on latest wlroots and the one in Void was sometimes lagging behind. It was possible to build it by adding an overlay for void-packages tree.
Now they seem to be not willing to add it because of ideological differences. Same with Chimera.

Wow! 😍 And if I'm not mistaken, a grotesque one too 😂
Google Pulls 'Dear Sydney' Olympics Ad After Appearing Tone-Deaf To AI Concerns https://tech.slashdot.org/story/24/08/02/1937249/google-pulls-dear-sydney-olympics-ad-after-appearing-tone-deaf-to-ai-concerns?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon

And the accompanying statement only made the matters worse IMO, just look at this: "…the Gemini app can provide a starting point, thought starter, or early draft for someone looking for ideas for their writing"
Making "AI" come up with the original idea and then lowly human ironing out the inconsistencies it had put there — that's beyond fucked up! 🤦

I have to admit that I've used name-calling and twisted Elon Musk's name a couple of times myself 😜
But I also know how off-putting it can be in a different context, this is not the way to go if you're attempting to make someone change his or her mind — if you call the one this person respects names, you opinion gets immediately discarded, if you want to be heard, you have to drop the shibboleths common in your circle and speak their language.
@randahl @KraftTea
I agree with this, facts win in the long run, you can't base everything on emotion — it's too volatile: today you may win the people over, tomorrow you might fail to feel what they are up to and might even lose all of their support by saying something out of place and stupid. Humour is powerful, but there should be more to it, facts help build trust!

Hey, I have a whole bookshelf there! 😆
when your sitting position says "i'm chill" but your eyes say "i'm about to do something completely ridiculous"

Bonus points for the stealth technique — blending in with the environment is truly superb 😹

One of the major (and valid) points of criticism of Rust is that std relies on libc, e.g. here: https://jeang3nie.codeberg.page/rust-criticism-from-rustacean/
There is demand for a libc-less implementation — that is, I believe what Redox does.
But supporting a wide range of architectures requires tremendous effort, Redox doesn't currently support many architectures so it's easier to work with. And in any case, it's still impressive!

I've found Thunderbird to be honoring LC_ environment variables even on musl systems where it's otherwise meaningless.
You can even have things like LANG=en_US.UTF-8 , but LC_DATE=en_GB.UTF-8 to have US locale, but dates in "more straightforward" (😏) format — I believe that's what I have on most of my systems, but you can try the opposite of it: British locale, but US date format.
Oh, yes and LC_TIME=en_GB.UTF-8 to not have AM/PM of course!
@kirby
Don't beat yourself over it! When I was younger, I used to thing that everyone who's e.g. into cryptography understands all this stuff perfectly — like they are thinking formulaes. But no, it's not that in the slightest — most are as dumb as most of the rest, even those who have studied it in the Uni or are working in this area — their professional sphere might be more interesting than most, but the people are mostly the same as everywhere.

No I won't be eating the flesh of those on Google's board of directors, thank you!
And no, I do not consider them humans, therefore it won't be cannibalism, but I still expect them to be inedible, poisonous probably 😖
None
Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
