Yeah, wasn't the security community just complaining about the number of CVEs published recently which were just unfiltered bug reports?

There are users that still swear by cron, but on modern systems a systemd timer is generally advised.

It's far too convenient for me to be angry at an inanimate object for my coworker's shortcomings, or some other nonsense that ignores the fact that apathy drives adoption more than anything else.

I remember Noita specifically had some odd behavior. Let me see if I can find that thread again.

Update: I didn't leave a lot of information for myself. Just to install lib32-nvidia-utils if you are on arch. I think this was specifically due to the way they were doing particle effects though, so it's probably unrelated.

This is one of the few conspiracy theories I have to back because it's just so cool conceptually

Flit isn't awful, but it's still a little disappointing that it expects an explicit version string from the package and can't take one from the pyproject.toml, but maybe that's changed now

If the initramfs is using systemd, it's actually able to look up the root (by label) and ESP partitions (by guid) automatically. GRUB can also detect the ESP and enumerate UKI images. There's still some assumptions being made, but it's cleaner than ever.

This was a fun game. Lot of optional story stuff.

Thought this was supposed to be the other way around since the Japanese have Hachishaku-sama.

The lesson I took away wasn’t that open source always wins. It was that once an open platform that people can customize becomes the industry’s center of gravity, no single vendor can match the combined rate of innovation around it.

Isn't that the main reason why "open source always wins"? What do old industry folk think made open source software so prevalent in the modern software landscape if not explicitly this reason? We can debate security, archival, extended support, but at the end of the day isn't this the explicitly the main reason? Centralized development efforts for a greater good?

Cool (god I hope my company doesn't try and roll something like this)
