No. In interpreted languages that is kinda true, in compiled languages that is definitely false.

The code is a simplification. It has a direct relationship to what actually happens, yes, but most often glosses over the details (even in C and other very low level languages)

NixOS is missing cause they graduated early 😎

Pretty sure the same soda from cans vs bottles rarely has the same formula. Specifically Coca-Cola, it tastes way different !

Nix is the next step in that evolution. It’s basically just JSON that can generate itself !

The Matrix.

The first film was perfect as a standalone.

Amazing to see Mastodon instead of Bluesky there ! Too many people falling for the Bluesky trap…

As a Computer Scientist, I increasingly believe this tech might actually be poison for the human mind, and I’m not sure what to do about it.

I want to believe we can make it actually useful. But I don’t know if that’s possible or not.

Of course I use SecureBoot, if you know how to set it up it has no inconvenients ! But that doesn’t go all the way up to the apps !

I have no idea what life was like before systemd so while I like it I have no way to compare

I was enthusiastic about LadyBird until I learnt that the guy leading the project i s a white supremacist, via pivot-to-ai.

Now I hope either someone else takes it over, or that it crashes and burns.

You know what ? If this law is only imposed on commercial operating systems, and I can make my free OS lie and say I’m 100+ ; then maybe this could work.

The option of having a full auth trust chain would be nice for some security applications, but the implication that it could be made compulsory is terrifying.

I see myself on the left, but those on the right of the image can have all my love and strength 💞💕 you are our siblings and we love you !

Eurgh ! This is just INFESTED with horrible AI writing clichés. All the “it’s not X — it’s Y” and the extraneous lists, the absolute abuse of putting titles everywhere.

What a MESS of an article, all just to say something that should have been patently obvious to anyone who is not a brain-poisoned moron.

Don’t let AI turn you into this. Take a stance, stay human.

I like Gnome’s apps, and I think I would install Gnome on any non-techie user’s computer.

But for myself ? I want all the options ! So I use KDE. Probably going to switch to a tiling WM, I’d like my whole desktop experience use tmux shortcuts, basically.

Do you really think that will survive ? It’s next on the chopping block with GrapheneOS if they keep going this way.

Humans may not be obligate herbivores ; nonetheless eating meat invariably hurts us in the short and long term.

Meet is like alcohol, you can get your calories from booze ; but why would you inflict that upon yourself ?

Eating meat is only deleterious. You may be able to stave off the visible consequences for a while, but make no mistake, it is eating you from the inside.

We were not meant to feed upon murder.

Proof ? Vegans are the only human group to be consistently healthy and long lived. We are exempt from many illnesses considered nigh-inevitable, even when genetically predisposed.

🤣

I have an extremely simple solution for this made-up problem : Just don’t eat meat 🤷🏻‍♀️

What are you, a tiger ? No ? Then why do you put yourself through this, when it only makes you sicker the more you do it ?

Cool beans, unfortunately GrayJay doesn’t fucking work at all, no matter what I try and on which device.

So I gave up. I use the YouTube website via IronFox on mobile, and LibreWolf on computers ; with lots of extensions to de-bloat it.
