Slackware would be much better if they included a dependcy manager. There's no reason you need play detective to find out what libs you need to run an app. Not in 2026.

Freedom to fork things that work instead of improving them.
Freedom to rewrite things that work instead of improving them.
Freedom to have things not working because the developers have to account for a billion different configurations.
Freedom to incorrectly configure your machine and cause obscure cryptic issues that seem unrelated and impossible for other people to replicate without taking the same steps.
Freedom to have inferior software because the developers can't assert the user environment.
Basically, freedom to fuck it up in every step of the way.

MacOS "just works" because they control the hardware and the software.
Windows "just works" because the user has no control over the entire OS stack.
Linux "works in your machine" because you happened to have a similar environment as a specific developer.

After using Linux for so long I treat so many things as minor inconveniences (like different display/audio protocols supporting different features, how enabling the compositor fucks specific games, and so on) that would never happen on any other OS.

I just don't feel like Linux will ever go anywhere as long as things keep fracturing whenever they reach past a certain size. Having a BDFL in your project seems to work well but I don't know if that's a good solution, it won't stop people from forking your shit instead of contributing to a single effort.

An actual technical reason to switch to BSD is how they've started vibecoding the kernel in rust.

Unfortunately it doesn't have wifi drivers for my device :(

I'm using Win10 and heard a device disconnect sound. The last event (which would've occurred at exactly the right time) was a DCOM server launch failure (10001) while trying to launch
>"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Copilot\Application\mscopilot_proxy.exe" -Embedding
But this shouldn't cause a device disconnect. The executable has a valid signature and was created today.

What the fuck happened?

Hi, I’m mainly a Mac user for work, and I only use Windows on my gaming PC at home.

My work involves low level software analysis and reverse engineering, and recently I’ve been doing a lot more work with Windows based tools. Transferring files from my M2 Mac to a crappy Dell Latitude using an external SSD is getting really annoying and time-consuming.

So I’m looking to pick up a ThinkPad as a dedicated Windows work machine. so I’m currently deciding between a T480 and a T14 Gen 2 (Intel).

From what I’ve seen, the T14 Gen 2 has Thunderbolt 4 and newer hardware, but the T480 is cheaper and more upgradeable.

For my use case (RE, tooling, moving large files, etc.), which one would you guys recommend? Any downsides I should be aware of?

>and that specific usecase does not grant big boies more money
yes it does. nat and cgnat are stateful methods, plain ip with not address translation is stateless.
stateful implementations use more harware resources, slowing down the connection, increasing the latency, and using more power.
stateless helps the «big boies» not wasting money.

pure technicals it is superior
but from what we got reality says otherwise
ISPs just dont feel the financial push to make the mass transition besides losing the reason to sell static ip seats

>>108502090
Why didn't they just add 2 more submasks to ipv4 for ipv6 like 000.000.000.000.000.000?
Then the name would actually make sense
>>
>>108502684
No they want to put you behind a NAT because there's only like 600mil usable ipv4 addresses and like 1 billion indians with internet connectivity. That shit just does not scale.

In practice it can be more complex than a single call in a single place. When you keep things together like that states and transitions have potential to become muddied up and it's not clear anymore where the boundary between subsystems is.

>>108508502
ECS is not the only way to apply clear boundaries between subsystems

>>108508523
It's not the only way, but it is one of the ways. If you don't have something that enforces things like IOC physically, your boundaries will be basically "trust me bro". If it's something that only exist in your head, it will depend on accuracy of your judgement.

>>108508610
>your boundaries will be basically "trust me bro".
welcome to programming
if you want to enforce strict boundaries between every tiny subsection of your code have fun spending ten times as long writing code as you actually need to
but you're a Rust user I suppose you like that

I believe that aluminum can be allowed with steel if the molten metals are blended, and the galvanic corrosion can be reversed through heat treatment, creating a undiscovered(?) material.

I built a furnace and started melting cans in my backyard in a soup can. I started hearing this loud crackling noise and then green smoke started coming out of my furnace. Then a huge tower of sparks shot out, It ended up burning a hole through my furnace and the smoke made me so sick I thought I was going to die for like a week. What did I do wrong?

How did people get psyoped into the advanced humiliation ritual that is the hiring process?
Surely AI will fix this right?
>>
It ironically might. The problem with jobs and society is that they are full of fuckheads who only talent is by being a backstabbing corporate ladder climbing sociopaths who only can get their rocks off by hurting others. If they do this to you, you need to tell them to fuck off. Yeah they will fire you in a week but it will catch them off guard and scares the shit out of them, but they need to learn their lesson. They need HR and management jobs to stay survive because they have zero skills and will tank any project if the company had to rely on their skill.

The good people with skills and honor can use AI as a extra helper and cut out the need to have middle management and HR middleman, because then you wouldn't have to hire dozens of third world code monkeys. Instead super autists and his AI gf can create their own competition software.
