Is OpenBSD a good choice for servers?

>>107647365
For many reasons yes. It comes with a very easy to use (and effective) firewall, has all unnessecary daemons disabled by default, has pledge and unveil for sandboxing applications, and is constantly being audited for security issues. It also comes with a lot of documentation and homegrown software that is easy to configure. Releases are stable but whenever a new security problem is found all you have to do is run syspatch and then it's taken care of, you don't have to upgrade anything.
However if you're running a server that will recieve a lot of traffic FreeBSD may be a better choice, it has jails, ZFS, the fastest network stack of any OS, and a bigger ports tree. A deficiency of OpenBSD is its lack of support for journaling filesystems. You could use FreeBSD as a load balancer and OpenBSD as a backend if you find that you like OpenBSD, maybe by running it in bhyve.

>I is also compatible with C/C++
No they removed that. Also, the zig compiler has never successfully built the full version of itself. It can still only be bootstrapped.

for low level languages, you benefit heavily by being (very) familiar with C semantics. This applies doubly so for meme languages because you will eventually want to interface with C libraries due to sheer volume
knowing about some of c++'s warts also helps, because features are often motivated by what went wrong in c++

>>107645788
Zig is just so superior, but you should learn and master C first.

>>107645966
>I have heard that Zig has growing adoption in new languages.
zig is growing (barely) because it exists. there is hardly any new (non-meme) players entering the game. maybe a couple of currently pre-alpha projects will grow into some relevancy...eventually. otherwise, for people looking for something new and almost ready for v1.0, zig is all they got.

im learning zig by making a small game engine. its comfier and less trannycoded than rust

So yeah, do I need to buy a dedicated small capacity card just for this?

>>107647297
Yes. All uSD cards have a FTL with wear leveling. If you try to use FAT on dumb QLC flash you'll have noticeable problems pretty much immediately.

It's 2025 but I still need a mail for some basic stuff. I want to say goodbye to my Hotmail account due to Microsoft's bad choices, looking for something more private. Protonmail seems ok, but a bit of a meme (not sure if that matters). Tuta is similar, but in Germany which makes me raise an eyebrow. Mailbox.org is located in Germany too, but you have to pay even for the most basic plan.

Are these the only choices worth considering? Any thoughts on Atomic Mail?

You mean chatgpt itself or AI tools? Just to be safe.

today i learned

The greater part of Unixtardation is pipes and shells rather than real APIs but yeah human-readable data that doesn't have any reason to be is a performance killer.

issue might also come from people who are into programming.

most people that are into CS were bullied when younger, and now that they are a bit older and have some "knowledge" they can feel powerful about, they just love turning into dicks all of sudden.

their truth is the only valid truth, and they love to force it to others. it applies to programming, it applies to dumb things such as OS selection, and you see it everyday here.

chances are the geniuses won't be in these "help" groups.

>>107640271
"Help groups" and "communities" are gay and full of grifting faggots that don't actually make anything. That's why they do that. They're just posting the law and the current fashionable framework or meme technique. They care nothing for experimentation and learning by doing and screwing up. You know, like a computer *scientist* would and not just some faggot cult member. Do yourself a favor and delete reddit, do not redeem discord and unplug /g/ unless for memes.

>"i program in a style very unique to myself and it throws people off"
it just sounds like you write garbage-tier code. anyone can barf out spaghetti that kinda works, but that's not what people pay developers to do

>>107647276
when im actually able to execute what im trying to do its usually well recieved and optimized to a point where i can explain it to anyone without much issue. for example i recently made a rudimentary 3D renderer in a 2D engine and the entire thing was only like, 4 threads between 2 object types

>>107647419
Code optimised (for performance) is not always good code for readability or maintainability or robustness for example.
Now one thing that is true is that different areas have different requirements, and gamedev is often the type of programming that cares much less about traditional maintainability and much more about just pure optimisation and also writing it and getting it to work fast. This was especially true on older platforms and consoles were performance was at an extreme premium (and is somewhat less true today on modern engines). So if you're writing game code for esoteric or retro engines then fair enough, it's gonna be weird and that's fine.

For almost anything else though the requirements are usually different. For a user-facing or desktop application, making the code easy to read, understand and expand with new features is much more important. For a business application, the biggest importance might be correctness, so making the code verbose, explicit in all its preconditions and invariants, and heavily testable. Etc. "Weird" code is usually considered trash code in those environments.

If you're a gamedev it changes the context a lot compared to the above.

It doesn't "require" a framework but it basically exposes a lot of handlers which make interaction with complex state easier.
If you have any forms or just multiple states to track, then it's when those frameworks become useful

HDDs are pretty long lasting and reliable, unless there's some mechanical failure like a head crash
Meanwhile SSDs can and will die suddenly and without warning
I've got loads of retro computers and a few years back made the decision to migrate most of them to SSDs for lower seek latency which really makes a difference on older machines. 9/10 of them no longer boot into an OS due to bit rot on the SSDs.
Meanwhile I was recently going through some old HDDs that haven't been powered in the last 15 years and they still work perfectly fine with no data corruption or any other issues.

You have your cause and effect backwards. People with gender dysphoria like anime because they have gender dysphoria, they don't have gender dysphoria because of anime. How would that even make any sense, anime girls don't look like real people. You wouldn't say anime causes autism but autists like anime for several reasons, one big one being it's very easy to read the emotions of girls with animal ears on top of their head compared to a normal person. I think you can figure out what trannies like about it.

>>107646936
Anime is brainwashing and causes AGP and pedophilia.
Continuous exposure to 'cutesy' infantile moeshit makes the average incel anime watcher who's never had pussy before fantasize about little girls who want to fuck their "onii-chan" which then devolves into wanting to be a little girl.

>This social progressivism has a strong overlap with Marxism, which teaches that there is a struggle between an oppressor and an oppressed class, and the latter must overthrow the former by any means necessary
Understand how I think. I believe human brains are fundementally flawed meat machines which hallucinate epic struggles of good vs evil. I posted a video above to suggest Marxist thinking is a trap most humans fall under with babies dividing the world into a like/dislike bias

Wokeness isn't marxism nor is its end goal communism. Its a extreme modification of Marx where Judith Butler's gender theory, civil rights, and Frank Furt's post structuralism is merged together and going up against the preceived "white heteronormative capitalist society" They swapped Marx's proliteriat with minorities and the borgeois with white people and added additions to just "capitalist" Marx would not even recognize this ideology.

>Lunduke is not a chud
yes he is. He strongly supports Israel's genocide and goes out of his way to deadname trans people and likes to make up his own epic narrative about hardworking tech bros overthrowing the trans oppressors using the Trump admin's help.

>big cities
Gay rights started in the big cities that is where all social progress starts. The cthulu always swims left from there. Back in the 1920s in big cities had underground social clubs where gays, cross dressers and mixed race friendships would chill and play music together despite illegality.

Pic attached is what not all but a good chunk of Lunduke's side actually believes. Coding software, being nice to people and making friends alone is boring to them. It doesn't light up their brain's reward pathways. They need an epic story of ultimate good vs ultimate evil to spice up good ol boring reality. They need an outgroup to demonize. Their monkey brains have deemed trans people as the ultimate evil outgroup to villanize. For some of them, there entie worldview is based on science reality denying BS, (q-anon, climate hoax, white replacement) but you can't break them free from it. The reason its impossible to break people free from q-anon is because the q-anon conspiracy taps into insticts to protect children and human brains are built to protect children at all cost even when the danger is fantasy novel imaginary evil like q-anon.

Trans people do the same psychological traps such as LARPING as anarcho communism vs nazis and hoping a neo soviet union forms and crushes their oppressors. They may see all of human history as an epic class struggle but they aren't making any progress IRL. There is no real world risk of them having a trans girl high socks cat ears communist revolution anytime soon so they and antifa aren't a high threat. Though I do admit antifa can be a limited threat when it comes to doxxing and property destruction but its not 2020 anymore and facts change. Meanwhile Trump is a real far greater threat treating hispanic American's as sub humans, rounding them up in prisons and DHS's official X account finding a very small minority of dangerous hispanic criminals and blowing them up to be the public face of all hispanics so they can strike fear into the general popular.

There are no varying enemy moves per turn that would let you react to so it boils down to quickly killing the most threatening enemy and tanking obligatory damage from more enemies than you could possibly stun face on. The rng factor doesn't help since I don't think there's any risk management to be had here whatsoever so you just watch the dice you picked slowly fuck you over.
