@safiuddinkhan@fosstodon.org Just can't throw these away. Being a big fan of DEC they still make me warm and fuzzy inside.
I should also have some hardware lying around somewhere: a tape drive, optical one, maybe a few wired network cards, not a working Alpha though 😢

@murks @safiuddinkhan@fosstodon.org Do you have proper hardware for that? 😄

@safiuddinkhan@fosstodon.org Windows? No!

Okay, I'm just showing off 😅
Fedi crowd might actually find these artifacts from a long-lost more advanced civilization cool.

@meeper Devs are always like that! You can fix it with proper leadership, but not always. Go is better at it, but they also do a lot of stuff that makes you ask "Why did they do it and why this way?!" 😅@a1ba @lanodan

Yes, this would definitely be better. Not that long ago I was updating a script written for 3.5 to 3.7 or something like that. Most changes were so minor that you could fix it with a few sed runs, but I'd appreciate if they had a standard tool to facilitate that. They've had 2to3 after all, why not for different 3.x versions.

@lanodan @a1ba I see. You're right it may feel this way because breakages never happen.
I still don't think it's anything like C, but nothing close to what happens to Python either — adding strong typing, changing the way modules are handled, etc.
I get why this happens, they try to use python for everything: web, big data processing, etc. And every crowd brings something new to the table. I don't like it either.

@lanodan @a1ba @meeper They do it. If you take a look at std library reference you'll find a lot of deprecation notes. They are just not too prudent at it I suppose 🤷🏿‍♀️

@iska@mstdn.starnix.network Apparently because rebuilding world in Gentoo takes a split second on supercomputer — so no fun there. And if so why bother with anything else? 😂

@lanodan That's because Perl 6 never saw wide adoption and Perl 5 was dormant for what, 15 years already?
I think most modern distros and OSes still come with it because everyone is lazy to rewrite the perl parts. If Git itself wasn't disgusting I'd find it disgusting that it uses Perl 😅
Python on the other hand is finding more and more uses. That is why it's so fscked up. I like some changes e.g. they've made async part of the language, but yeah, a lot of stuff that gets added is cursed.
@a1ba

@EmberDev@tech.lgbt I'd definitely use something called Luniny lunut!

This was the main reason for me to try wayland. And I like it!

@iska@mstdn.starnix.network GTK had some environmental variable to force wayland, I'm not sure if you still need it, maybe it detects this automatically. SDL apps still needs some var to use wayland backend.
BTW if you are serious about going the wayland route, try Alacritty. It's fast on wayland (I always thought of it as wayland-only, found out that it works with X11 only a month ago 😆) and really good.

@jrballesteros05 Yeah! AFAIK there was a bug in how Windows handled jpeg images when generating thumbnails. You could use a specially cooked image to run arbitrary code.
I believe it wasn't even fixed when Windows XP went into the limited support status. MS just advised everyone to turn off displaying thumbnails for all folders 🤣

@th3rdsergeevich Спасибо! Теперь я знаю правильное название таких схем.
