Also the v3 and v4 packages which do make a difference. If any KDE developer lurks 4chan I'd love to see them support Glibc hwcaps in the future for some packages like Mesa, etc. Don't have to do it for everything like CachyOS but for certain system packages it shouldn't bloat the base system too much or result in too much added build system time, etc.

Other distros like OpenSUSE and Fedora, etc, already do this for some stuff I think.

PC building fomo sure is a sad feeling to have. If the timeline was a year or two ahead of the current schedule I would have probably seriously considered having my big upgrade be a return to Intel, especially if the cost-efficient Arrow Lake Refresh chips also happened. But having a 9800x3d means I will likely be stuck with this for the next decade.

What's the deal with OpenBSD's file system? Is it any good compared to ZFS, BTRfs, and ext4
>>
>>108587417
I actually ran OpenBSD on a Thinkpad X200 for about 3 whole years and enjoyed it thoroughly. That was about 5 years ago. I still use OpenBSD from time to time to see what it's like, but for my actual computing at the end of that 3 year period I ultimately decided on Gentoo, and about half a year ago I switched to FreeBSD because I got tired of The Linux Foundation and The Linux Community shenanigans.

OpenBSD's clean, maybe less laptops and GPUs are supported, but whenever a certain laptop or GPU is supported, it's supported completely, more so that FreeBSD.

For example, on FreeBSD my Thinkpads' WiFi chips have some quirks, while on OpenBSD they work flawlessly.

The problem with OpenBSD is that despite its autism, it's essentially just the Apple walled garden philosophy UNIXified.

If you want a simple laptop with the programs they have to offer on their package collection, maybe a simple static web server, or something really simple or straight forward to set up and never worry about, OpenBSD's neat.

Me, I wanted latest versions of programs, wanted to compile my own software from source to customize it, and wanted to get into programming and experiment with all kinds of new languages and libraries.

With OpenBSD they don't want you fucking around compiling software by yourself. Their ports don't allow any kind of customization. If you want to just download source code and compile it yourself, you'll have to do an endless amount of patching yourself to get anything to work, due to their autistic adherence to standards.

OpenBSD's filesystem situation is shit. It uses FFS2 which is a little modified UFS (as in UNIX File System from the original UNIXes). I never used many of ZFS's or EXT4's more autistic features, so I never cared much, but OpenBSD's FFS2 does NOT support TRIM for SSDs which grinds them out faster.

OpenBSD's FFS2 is like an inferior and somewhat slower EXT3

>Becomes the default language for literally all high level development
Why? Why did a linter for dogshit JS become so ubiquitous? People will pretend that Java, C#, Kotlin, Python and [insert niche meme languages here] matter anymore but they just don’t. Sure they may be “better”, but TS has eaten into literally every domain that doesn’t require C-level performance or determinism. Give it 5 years and it will surpass Python for AI/ML. It’s already become the go-to for web backends, where Java, C#, Ruby, PHP, and Python are only for legacy webdev. It’s becoming more and more common to come across js/ts scripts and CLI tools, eating away at the Python/ruby/go market share. Everybody uses it to make shitty desktop and mobile apps with cross platform tools, despite the worse UX in the end.

Is this the Antichrist?

Wrong sadly. No matter what language is used, everything is libraryslop or AIslop nowadays. No one cares about writing anything good or performant anymore unless you are in a field that demands it.

Like 80% of the stuff that needs to be written can be blazing fast in single threaded Javascript, but even simple applications come out janky and slow due to laziness.
>>
>>108600220
Javascript is utterly unusable due to lack of proper primitive types.

I wish Microsoft would pay me six figures a year to polish a turd. No one even uses TS as intended, they just use "any" instead of static types.
