The compatibility layer is wine actually, Proton is just an extension of it and is probably open source because wine itself is LGPL.

Valve has been good to us in recent years, by it's a corpo and one day it'll be taken public when GabeN is gone. Let's not fan them too much, eh?

No, it's market price x share count where market price is the price of the last sale. It's an approximation of value that only works for small amounts.

Rust has static linking, you get the necessary (and some unnecessary) parts of the standard library in your binary instead of the user having to install the library the way you have to have a libc installed. Makes for fatter binaries but much easier compatibility.

The existing app is based on electron. It pretty much can't be optimised unless you manage to greatly reduce the footprint of Chromium itself.

Honestly sounds like LLMs have learned that from half the rust projects I'd seen before the LLM craze lol

I thought that was mostly just coercing women into sex for roles. Sexual abuse yes, horrific crime yes, trafficking not necessarily

Eh I'm of the opinion that erecting statues of people who are still alive, especially politicians, is a bad idea. Never know who will turn bad and when.

Yeah imagine you get something you don't like at all. Now you're out of money and still hungry. Wouldn't want to risk that personally

Why, because of their slavic names? Or because you get a Lithuanian IBAN?

The company is headquartered in the UK and both founders have lived there for a long time, even if born elsewhere.

The IBANs are Lithuanian because that's where it was easier to get registered. Similar to how Wise got registered as a bank in Belgium despite being an UK business with Estonian founders and an office in Tallinn.

Institutional investors, especially retirement funds, own too much anyway. Good riddance.

Are you routinely trying different expensive enterprise distros?

Opensuse is not managed by the company.

2/7 bama house seats went blue actually.
