Lightweight distros need less than 1GB of RAM, so you don’t need to use the entire RAM.

98SE was complete crap and people only forget about it because it was followed by ME.

The repo alone has 114 contributors, and that’s assuming no one copied code from any other project. It’s not that small.

One thing I’m missing in all this, did the dude change the license from GPL without the other contributors express permission? That on itself would be a massive violation of the GPL

It was a joke to make the point that vim can be the easiest tool to use if you are trying to do a complex task.

Easy is relative. What are you trying to do? Replace a value in an yaml file? Then nano is easier. Trying to refactor a business critical perl/brainfuck polyglot script in production? Then you probably want to use vim (or emacs if you are one of those people)

Except crowdstrike literally doesn’t work like that on Linux.

The OS getting fully bricked because of a third party software update is still very much a OS level fuck up.

A neat way would be to re-use one the 200 already existing standards like rel="author" or even rel="me" (which mastodon already supports anyway). This solution just is just NIH-driven development.

Windows XP code was leaked 2 years ago, so it’s freeware according to this idi… stable genius .

While I personally don’t oppose licenses that forbid commercial usage, this is not open source.

The European Commission would appreciate the multi billion euro “donation” from Microsoft if they did something so obviously anti competitive.

Technically it was just a Microsoft Tech Evangelist that said that, in a non official capacity, and I’m pretty sure the sales people took him to the torture chamber after that.

From a technical point of view, there was nothing stopping Microsoft from making Windows 10 a rolling release, so I can see how some naive fools might have convinced themselves that their employer wouldn’t be shitty to their users for the first time ever.
