>Try running any part of the systemd software suite on an openrc system and see how that works out?

Well from this POV it's kinda openrc's problem if it doesn't. What about trying to run any part of the Openrc software suite on an Upstart system? The question why would anyone sane want to is rhetorical tho...

Why obsessing over whether systemd is monolithic and in what measure anyway? There certainly ARE optional systemd parts. So it's correct to say it's not entirely monolithic.

mos87on Vim 9.2

Some good context...

mos87on Vim 9.2

And did so in its (or rather Bram's) own, incompatible with Neovim way. I imagine that's the biggest problem with Vim why Neovim was even created - hardcore NIH syndrome of Vim's main author.

Yet you just went and created a new (burner?) acc just to post this absolute tripe here.

Will this work be of any use tho?

mos87on The story of Squeak, a practical Smalltalk written in itself (1997) [pdf]

Good for you I guess.

Too bad the whole world isn't the MIT Campus/Silicon Valley.

mos87on The story of Squeak, a practical Smalltalk written in itself (1997) [pdf]

Nice.

Too bad 99% of real world (c)(tm) workloads don't look kindly on hauling not only a debugger but "the full dev environment" in every product shipped out there...

A blinding setup otherwise ngl.

mos87on Microtonal Spiral Piano

Sounds nice for sure.

And no-one remembered Loom..

Thumb drives in the early 2000s weren't all that ubiquitous to put it mildly.

Neither was carrying around one's dev environment entire or partial.

You're quite an early adopter.

mos87on Iron Beam: Israel's first operational anti drone laser system

The Chinese are most likely steaming ahead with the drone armies.

mos87on Windows 11 Outperforming Linux on an Intel Arrow Lake H Laptop

Laptop manufacturers aren't bribed to care about anything other than WIndoze??? Colour me shocked.

The consumer loses out but that's not something new either.

mos87on Staying ahead of censors in 2025

mos87on Software engineers should be a little bit cynical

In 2026 everyone could do worse than become a little bit more cynical

mos87on Staying ahead of censors in 2025

Do they have official instructions on how to setup (which URLs for STUN, etc - there are a couple required) TOR via Snowflake on desktop (bc on Android it all seems to be bundled inside Orbot)?

And islamophobic too. Take note.

mos87on Rust in the kernel is no longer experimental

It all depends on the value each and every person brings. Otherwise, I'd rather chose to work with a normal colleague rather than with someone who can't keep his obsessive schizophrenia out of work process. I guess this should be the baseline.

mos87on Rust in the kernel is no longer experimental

Due process including fitness for purpose assessment isn't "resistance".

mos87on CRISPR fungus: Protein-packed, sustainable, and tastes like meat

Amsterdam or Portland? Anyway, you're welcome to munch grass (we're not made for that), eat bugs, and wash em down with beetroot smoothies.

>the important forests being torn down far cattle

It's a bit extreme to refer to that "climate" summit "guests" as cattle, but I won't deny it gave me a chuckle.

>the inhumane conditions in which the cattle are raised

Gosh, that's sad. One way to go about it is to vote with your hard-earned and only buy meat from the Ethically Raised in the Swiss Alps Cows that look quite happy on the photos then.
