Unless you prototype in a cpu fab it does not matter, debian 13 came out last week and its kernel is not that old

That is also why many modern programming languages are not taken seriously by the industry

Usb is weird, it works for external drives to put or retrieve the odd file from an external HDD, but feature creep made it unusable for VMs unless you tweak it to hell and back.

All words from any it admin have weight, that is not what I meant.

Its just that init scripts and weird boot requirements are really crap to manage at scale and my job, like many others became a lot easier with systemd, that is why almost everyone uses it now. In my experience those that complain either never encountered these issues because they never scaled enough and like to use what they were used to, or prefer to write a script over a config file and make this a religious issue for some reason.

Ok I see. Without any intention to sound offensive, 5 servers is not enough to really see the pro cons of either init system. People handling 50 times those numbers encounter issues where it starts to matter, and those people tend to claim that, while it ain’t perfect, it is a lot better than any alternative

I always go arch for stuff that needs the new shit, and debian for stuff that should run stable. Those nix bazzite tubleweed thingies are nice, but too niche, if you have a problem the small communities are less probable to have it as well and good luck finding solutions

He is not that bad, the issue is that, as all foss devs, he is not interested in solving problems he does not feel like are important.

The problem is, he disapproves when resources are allocated in his project to those problems and one main area he is not a fan of is support for legacy stuff.

It just happens that legacy stuff is the majority of the industry, as production environment of half the globe needs to run legacy software and a lot of it on legacy hardware

And they are all playtoys, unused in production by anyone serious for a reason.

Excuse me but wtf? How many machines do you manage?

Not valve’s resources though, so from their point of view its low effort

Windows users used to buy crap to have a functioning system unfortunately dont’t know that there is no need for this in linuxland

I see, thanks for the time you took explaining this. I think it is more a cultural difference then in how patterns evolved.

Then live life and love without emojis, we did fine without for most of history <3

Try using a feature complete browser

Not a rust dev, rather c++, but just to understand, how should a type be named if it is used to carry information about an error?

Os this an issue with the language, similar to C where you don’t have namespaces, and thus need to call everything acmecorp_error_v5 or something like that?

Try using a distro that is less ultra optimized for gaming on modern hardware. You have a legacy system, try something like debian or arch

I really hope not

My bad, I must have been a bit cranky when I first read your post this morning. Anyways, there is experimental support, my dm proposes an experimental cinnamon wayland session and usually that means that the devs are seeking feedback. If the places with discussions on the topic seem to be quiet, it means that not enough people do test it and give feedback. Doing your part can indeed accellerate the process.

How about you join the effort and help in development, instead of putting pressure on people that do this for free, raking time away from their families and sleep?

I think too that this is it, those malts op listed, while carrying a lot of flavour, do not have many enzymes, op might not have converted enough starch
