Auxiliary? I guess "Ancillary" is not what you meant.

Hate speech is not speech, banning it is not censorship.
What does sex have in common with the actively and directly harmful Garbage that people go on Gab for? Nothing if you're not a troll.
I think that's what transpired from Piketty's "Capital in the Twenty-First Century"
I love the whole arm technique to play the bars xD
The original black midi for comparison : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qskm9MTz2V4
I like the "no arts" version that removes silent notes, as it makes it more enjoyable (for me!) to follow what's happening : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcfmPZVqVtw
However, one other interesting aspect of a song like Tau is the "performance" of playing these note-heavy midis. You are effectively recording a live performance of your computer processing/performing the midi file, it is not like playing a recording.
This implies that for a good portion of black midi history, it was not possible for most computers to play those files without screen freezes, heavy skipping notes, and then recovering after the hard portion has passed.
It was/is necessary to overclock CPUs to avoid or minimize these artifacts on songs like Tau.
And it can be said that screen freezes/note skips are integral parts of the performance. At least that's my take and I really do enjoy seeing the computer almost giving up to then recover and finish the song.
He was generally anti foreigners, anti equal rights.
He was a member of the crazy nationalist cult Nippon Kaigai that wants a return to the prewar status of the godly emperor and profess Japanese Yamato's pure race superiority. Look that up.
Wikipedia :
"Shinzo Abe [0] was affiliated with the openly ultranationalist organization Nippon Kaigi (Japan Conference). He was considered a right-wing populist and ultra-conservative within the LDP, and some media and books referred to him as a far-right politician. According to Professor Dominique Tasevski, his legacy can be defined by nationalism, historical revisionism, and a deterioration in Japan-South Korea relations."
"Nippon Kaigi [1] believes that "Japan should be applauded for liberating much of East Asia from Western colonial powers; that the 1946–1948 Tokyo War Crimes tribunals were illegitimate; and that killings by Imperial Japanese troops during the 1937 Nanjing Massacre were exaggerated or fabricated". The group vigorously defends Japan's claim in its territorial dispute over the Senkaku Islands with China, and denies that Japan forced the "comfort women" during World War II. Nippon Kaigi is opposed to feminism, LGBT rights, and the 1999 Gender Equality Law."

If you want to credibly argue for something, I would recommend not professing that your life is structured by magical thinking.
That's the case for VR were Valve as shown with their headset that 120Hz, and even 144Hz, is a huge comfort and presence improvement over the 90fps standard (or even 72 on Oculus Quest 2) from the rest of the industry.
Hitting the 144fps mark, means a CPU fast enough to consistently clear the main loop, while leaving enough time for rendering (!), in a shared <7ms time budget.
Creation is cool in VR, I've had a lot of fun in tilt brush. Apparently there are ways to be productive building in VR from 3D engines too. Some even try coding even though the resolution is still extremely insufficient. Meta promises that most work, solitary or collaborative will eventually be better done in VR/AR.
However, while I love VR, I sure won't be spending much time suffering at low FPS.
We're far from not needing faster CPUs anytime soon, there are not enough John Carmack and Michael Abrash able and willing to optimise the shit out of every routine in assembly.
The end of Dennard Scaling is a tragedy.
I'm far away and can't help my parents. They recently replaced their computer and asked a local tech to reinstall their apps. I told them to ask for LibreOffice. The guy put OpenOffice...
The damage from Apache is real and massive.
We run a lot of CentOS 5 virtual machines (and some physical ones! ; and some RHEL4! , and a few Fedora core 8 and 4 !!!), with no end in sight... :(
It is a huge concern for the Infra team, a source of many headaches, and we need to go through oops to keep them running, but:
- Clients don't want to move from OLDPRODUCT that requires extremely old php.
- Dev team is not interested in migrating OLDPRODUCT to a modern platform, or even try to put it in a container. Their eyes are turned to the shiny NEWPRODUCT that is seemingly never fully coming to production (only one client has signed for it).
- New clients are still regularly signed on OLDPRODUCT.
- No one in the org wants to pay for for a migration anyway.
- Since some clients have complained about poor apparent security, what was visible was just hidden behind newer haproxy.
Stream is only "between" fedora and RedHat until RHEL X.0 is released.
For instance, once RHEL 9.0 development branched from fedora 34, Stream 9 became the upstream and just ahead of all further RHEL 9.X releases, and doesn't depend on fedora anymore.
Furthermore all Stream rpms undergo the exact same RHEL testing and quality validation chain than proper RHEL packages.
As such by using Stream 9, you are arguably receiving the bug fixes that are eventually going into RHEL 9 proper, just in advance a bit.
RedHat engineers have argued that keeping up to date would amount to effectively running a faster fixed (less buggy overall) OS than RHEL.
We must aim to be collectively less wrong. But that won't happen without rightly self-righteous people fighting the bad ideas. Doesn't mean they have to lack compassion for the mistaken though.
From RedHat's announcement blog and Centos website: CentOS Stream "a continuously delivered distribution that tracks just ahead of Red Hat Enterprise Linux".
And indeed, I have read that all packages currently going into Stream 8 follow exactly the same testing and validation procedures than for entering Redhat Proper.
But of course, this holds true only for released RedHat versions. Meaning that Stream 8, is currently just ahead of RedHat 8.5 and will soon start to incorporate changes planned for 8.6 (so nothing like a "bleeding-edge test environment to test new changes" as you put it).
As for Stream 9 which was release recently, it is indeed the stabilisation socle based on fedora 34 that will eventually become RedHat 9. Once RedHat 9 released, Stream 9 branch will be stabilized and once again be "just ahead" of the impending RedHat 9 rpms.
In any case, I am not sure that hospitals should be running/updating self supported OS on surgical equipments without proper testing anyway.
I understand that if your goal was to use CentOS to validate a specific and highly critical workload for eventually running in production on Redhat systems (taking into account the version lock dance to make sure that you indeed have the exact same package versions on both environments, meaning a lot more hassle and delays in bug fixes and security updates that simply following the regulars updates), then Rocky/Alma/AnyRebuild will be better for you.
If your goal was already to run production on CentOS, with frequent updates for security, the theory would be that you will be even better served by CentOS Stream. My take is that it is the most popular case.
What am I missing?
I personally do hope for either AGI or a 3rd type encounter to expend Humanity's philosophy.
It's not because a side of an argument is gaining traction in certain communities, for its own merit as far as I know (I believe in objective truth btw), that this is sufficient for calling that (pejoratively, as your comment feels to me) a "meme".
In the meantime, I do need continuous Xorg updates. It's not by choice, Wayland just doesn't do the trick and is unusable on my machines until workflows like Synergy/Barrier are supported.
I really hope that there is an awareness in the DE communities that, for some use cases, Wayland is still not able to replace X and that left behind users are stuck with it until then.
