Pardon me for being less intimately familiar with the project - but my point still stands, in terms of test focus. And yes, of course I know bugs are inevitable - I’ve been writing them for damn near two decades at this point.

To be fair, it was the senate that folded, not the house

In Oklahoma, 21-year-old GOP organizer Kennedy Laplante Garza started fighting a nearby data center proposal known as Clydesdale after learning over the summer that it would be built a mile from her family’s farm. “I didn’t even know that much about data centers at that point,” she told me. “But I knew my friends across the state were fighting similar things, whether they were solar panels or wind turbines.” Garza wound up organizing a mass petition campaign against the project that ultimately proved unsuccessful — Clydesdale broke ground this week.

Emphasis mine.

Just… wow. What a fucking imbecile.

So:

• yes, that’s pretty sketchy
• this is also AFAIK the first major distro that it’s been a part of as a stock install, so this is the first exposure at scale that the project has had; as unfortunate as it is, it can be argued that this might fall under “teething issues”
• with that said, it sounds like the rust coreutils people need to step up their game in terms of thinking in and testing for adversarial contexts. Normal test cases do not cut it when you’re dealing with stuff like sudo - it needs to be put through the ringer.

I just suck it down through apt or flatpak or homebrew or whatever is appropriate for the system I’m on. I tend to avoid manual download/install processes unless it is specifically recommended, or there’s no option to do it through a package manager.

Good post. Definitely worth the read. Essentially: “how to convince execs who think they know more than they do that something is not only a good idea, but also their good idea”

I used Rufus to make Linus boot USBs for AGES

Also true

Reddit is not the worst parts of humanity.

That would be /b/.

That’s great, but I’ll celebrate when they stop just straight up ignoring court orders.

Also: “To make money”

Yeah I have no idea. But I don’t put that much effort into parsing the gist or intent of ai slop memes.

A rather shit ai slop meme

We’ve been there for a while tbh

I’m doing bazzite because I like atomic for this use case (primarily a gaming box, with some additional utility as a server/general use PC + dev box; I want stability)

But I’m stoked that the Linux migration movement is getting more traction across the board

Yeah, the day Gabe leaves is going to be a sad day for gaming, because Steam is probably gonna get real shitty real quick. I’m sure some finance-minded jackasses will do their best to maximize short-term profit and fly the whole ecosystem into the ground at Mach 3.

Well that’s repulsive in the extreme

Tell me you don’t understand AWS without telling me you don’t understand AWS.

That said, this round-tripping bullshit is truly fucking absurd. The bubble-pop is going to be cataclysmic.
