I've wanted to move elsewhere for a long time, thing is I don't use nano for programming, I use it for config files. For programming I use an IDE, and every time I've tried leaving my IDE for emacs with a language server I find I just can't be bothered to set it up and learn it and make the move. Maybe because while I have some gripes with my current setup...they're very minor

SELinux breaks a lot of android root exploits, way back in the day even dirty cow didn't work. It would get you "root" but not actually the full perms because of SELinux. Really good testament to the added security of MAC, it's one of the reasons I run apparmor on my systems

Never mind the fact that you can also run Linux on a Mac...I agree with this pet peeve

Hmmm, now is this actually doing any good for anyone...or is big tech using children and governments as an excuse to collect more of our data? Hard to tell /s

We have software marketed as a web browser, written in typescript running on a web browser...we've gone too far.

🤔 this appears to be the outdated version 4 of this form.

It's wild to me that even MS and the WSL play nicely with mesa but not Nvidia, God forbid Nvidia play nicely.

Fair, should've just said shell

Define what you mean by non-unix like? Android is Unix like, it hides it from the user but the NDK is still a Unix like API, all devices have a POSIX shell /system/bin/sh installed which can be accessed via a terminal emulator app or using adb. The filesystem structure is different than most systems but there's still a /dev, /etc, /bin, and /proc. Not to mention one of the most unixy designs being the fork() call which android uses as the basis of all app processes. What I mean is Android has a parent process containing all the basic stuff an app needs called zygote which is then forked to become an app processes when an app is launched and then the rest of the app stuff is loaded into that new process, an exec to fully replace the parent is not done. That's a very unixy design decision that isn't usually available on other systems.

Technically speaking if we're going by the hides it from the user perspective then the steam deck qualifies to the same extent. It's hidden until a power user doesn't want it to be

I'm personally on board with the comment left by @equinox@chaos.social. I think marcan is unnecessarily escalating this situation and I'd hardly describe Christoph's behavior as sabotage. He does appear to have a real technical concern regarding maintainability and I think discussing that concern is more productive than dismissing it and calling him a saboteur.

I've been in the systemd world so long none of my systems even have cron

Honestly modern Java has a lot of really nice features and I think it gets a lot of unfair hate
