perhaps you did?

Neither is it my first language, what’s your point?

today I learned that automation denigrates humanity

at least you’re self aware

It appears that you are in need of help with reading comprehension here because I was not talking about any particular government.

I do admire their unwavering dedication to the clown act though.

Which doesn’t change the point which is that your own government has far more agency over you than a foreign one.

you can really tell people put thought into aesthetic and overall functionality there

I’m saying flatpack didn’t even have to use machine-id at all for anything it does. I don’t know why you’re so invested in the idea that this was somehow necessary and nothing better is possible.

yeah here’s an archive https://archive.ph/a6Tmo

There are microkernels like minix and they work well, but that’s a different animal because user space is where you actually do make changes much more commonly than in the kernel. Also, I don’t really follow your argument regarding flatpack, it’s like you’re implying that containerized apps couldn’t exist without using machine-id for some reason?

a lot of nazis were killed in ww2 I suppose

I’ve already explained repeatedly how systemd goes against core Unix philosophy. Communities can form around all kinds of things, just because a community forms around bad idea that doesn’t mean it should be automatically accepted. Linux did get modular design largely right, that’s the whole problem here. Systemd throws the baby out with the bath water. Monolithic design was basically more convenient for companies trying to monetize the platform.

Systemd has gotten plenty of backlash as well, I’m certainly not the only person who sees the problems with it. The problem is that it’ll keep getting pushed by commercial interests. And the same thing will happen with AI incidentally.

Protocols were understood well enough that you could build a single app that could communicate across different platform. That’s basically not feasible today.

totally not a bubble

In certain conditions that’s true.

The lack of interoperability between modern chat apps is a real tragedy. I remember the days when you could have a single messenger app of your choice and talk to people across different networks instead of having to juggle a whole bunch of apps like you do today. Really shows why open protocols are so important.

I would imagine that hydro would actually have to deal with more friction leading to more energy loss.
