If you distribute Linux crackers then you need to provide not just the list of ingredients but also the recipe used to make them.

Gentoo users in shambles

I should have tried a bit harder to search, the original quote by Sartre is:

“Every existing thing is born without reason, prolongs itself out of weakness, and dies by chance.”

“Every line of code is written without reason, maintained out of weakness, and deleted by chance” Jean-Paul Sartre’s Programming in ANSI C

Is this a joke or an AI hallucination? I’m pretty sure Sartre never wrote about programming in ANSI C.

There is a book called “Programming in ANSI C” by E. Balagurusamy

I can only find other references to this quote from sites that are linking this article.

The article actually does date back to 2016 so it’s not AI generated.

Nothing in the licensing scheme changed, at all.

This statement is incorrect. The SDK had specific source files placed exclusively under the SDK license, and the remainder of the repository dual licensed between GPL 3 and the SDK license. So the licensing scheme did change.

I get why you’d suggest the previous commenter is out of touch with what users want, but what does that have to do with being a software engineer?

I’ve had this one in my images folder for at least a couple of decades. No idea where I saved it from:

Fuck Zuck.

The binary blobs match which checksums? The ones provided by the ventoy developer?

GLIM is an alternative that’s much simpler (it just uses Grub configs) so it is easy to audit:

Please don’t continue to recommend Ventoy. It has serious and unanswered security questions hanging over it, and the developer seems to be completely AWOL.

Anyone who falls for the scam of thinking that you can determine IQ from the genome of an embryo is probably below average themselves.

You’re just unabashedly supporting eugenics? Is that because you’re too young, or too uneducated to know any better?

if I share some rice I made

FYI: rice is derived from a racist pejorative term. A lot of people in the desktop theming community have stopped using it.

This is great! Some feedback on UI:

• The first thing I did was click ⇩ on a post and it prompted me to log-in. This is confusing because I thought I could train the recommender without having to log-in. It took me a minute to find the “Like/Dislike” buttons because they require an extra click to open the post menu. Maybe make the Like/Dislike a bit more prominent and accessible, and find a way to differentiate between the controls for training the recommender and the upvote/downvote actions on the post itself. Or even better, make them the same thing so there’s only one pair of controls and if you’re not logged-in then upvoting just boosts the recommendation but doesn’t actually send the upvote action to the post.
• Please use actual links (<a href=""></a>) for post navigation so that I can tell my browser to open a link in a new tab. Usually I middle-click to do this (in Firefox) but since the post title and content only respond to javascript events, I can’t middle click to open in a new tab. Clicking the post opens it in the same window.
• Add text content of posts, or at least a button to expand the text content. Right now text posts are just the post title and I have to click through to read the content.
• Add alt-text (tooltips) to your buttons. I know what the standard share/bookmark icons look like but it helps to have tooltips to be sure.
• Add a link to open the original post (on the origin server). Every fediverse UI has this. If you have it too, I couldn’t find it.
• Allow me to see (and drag) the scrollbar of the main content frame.
• Add a refresh button (maybe at the top of the feed) so that I can generate more recommended content without having to actually reload the page in the browser.
• When clicking a community name, I get the community page but I can’t press the back button to go back to the feed.
• If I “dislike” a post, I don’t expect to see it again after a refresh, or ever.

Also, it’s a bit late to change it now, but the name is very 2009-internet-startup.
