>god, four fucking syscalls for this, lol. at this point it's honestly just comical.
When I do stuff like rsyncing my codebase, sometime the build system would sperg out when the timestamp of the of the sources was updated, triggering full rebuilds at every invocation.
Especially for big codebases, I see why you would want to update them all efficiently.
also, I usually set noatime for all my filesystems. I don't know why atime is useful, but I'm sure there's a usecase, so having options to set it only when needed seems useful to me

Is it a controversial opinion on /g/ to say that I preferred when TVs didn't have their own OS frontend?
I'm not saying linear TV didn't have it's problems but at least it always felt like it did what I wanted, not what it thought I wanted.
The golden middle-ground was when you connected a streaming stick to a HDMI port on your dumb-TV.

These days I only use my TV for my PS5. If I push a button on the PS5 controller, it brings the console out of sleep, powers on the TV, and switches the TV input to the PS5 input. When I am done playing I can put the PS5 in sleep mode, the TV will sit on no-input for a couple minutes and then automatically turn off as well.

I actually never have to even touch the TV remote except for the initial setup to change the picture settings.

I used to play Arknights on my TV hooked up to a laptop running an Android emulator, it was actually quite fun that way. Most mobile games don't even look bad on big TVs because mobile screens are basically all the same resolution as TV screens anyway, so other than the controls they're basically designing for the same spec.

1. Remove all Indian people.
2. Annouce that in 10 years you'll introduce an entirely new windows that's no longer backwards compatible with previous systems from decades ago.

Start with a clean slate, make it fast, efficient and easy to adjust. As long as mail, browser, office, adobe, coding works at release, you're good. Secure and transparant, ie. no snooping on customers. Fast and efficient, ie. good game performance and battery lasts longer.

Charge money at the start, so you don't have drooling retards bringing it down.

In days gone by, it was more demanding to tackle certain tasks.

Until the 1990s (possibly early 2000s if one considers the advent of three-dimensional graphics and mobile phones), individuals were engaged in pioneering new endeavors. In contrast, current developments predominantly involve refinements rather than groundbreaking innovations. The recent suggestion to rewrite code in Rust serves as a poignant illustration of the stagnation plaguing the programming community. Artificial intelligence is arguably the sole remaining area where significant advancements can be made; however, this field is largely driven by technological advancements rather than software innovation.

I love having my shit rewritten.

So like, what are the chances of microsoft seeing what they did with dumping explorer and shifting into a chrome forked EDGE:

What are the chances they'll do the same with the ENTIRE windows OS and just forking a unix kernel that runs windows executables? Like what motivation do they have to keep windows running? Especially if they can cut costs for supporting new iterations, continually fork linux and charge people for a distro that runs windows apps?

I'm thinking EDGE is like the ultimate case study and evidence that they just exit the OS market since it's much more expensive to maintain an OS thats slowly becoming more and more obfuscated?

Just to clarify you don't need to pay to use windows, they limit features, some functionality and you don't have up to date security updates. But you can use core windows without paying indefinitely.

Well, it’s no secret Microsoft makes all their money from their cloud software and data harvesting from said software, and those programs can all run quite easily on Linux (web based office has been a thing for years). From a pure investment perspective windows makes no sense because it costs tons of money and requires a lot of upkeep for essentially zero gain. If Microsoft did switch to using the Linux kernel and developing a custom desktop it wouldn’t be a bad idea, but that’ll be years and years down the road if it even happens. I’m sure they’re aware of how much better windows compatibility has gotten in the last few years though.
