32GB def aint that for me, i'm already hitting that limit. 48-64GB minimum would have been my recommendation before the most recent RAM prices. 32GB is still acceptable if you just can't stomach dropping $500-600+ for 48-64GB.

What's the issue with Rust?

So far It has nice modern features like a cleaner syntax, and their memory system seems better than C or C++.

Dunno why trannies is a computer science argument, since I don't care about rust developers fetiches.

Yes, you are likely recalling the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) study published in 2023, which was widely reported as "the final nail in the coffin" for traditional CAPTCHAs.
Bots are now better and faster than humans.
Humans averaged 50–84% accuracy on text tests, while bots achieved 99.8%. Humans took 9 to 15 seconds to solve distorted text challenges; bots did it in under a second. 819 million hours have been spent by humans solving reCAPTCHAs since 2010. This equates to roughly 1,182 complete human lifetimes spent clicking on fire hydrants and traffic lights.

>For fucks sake. I just got a robot vacuum and it's the best thing in my entire life.
Is it really that big of a change? I've been thinking of getting one of these but at the same time it only takes me about 5 minutes a day to vacuum my floors with a real vacuum. But I have noticed that my house accumulates dust way too fast so I basically have to vacuum every day or else my house becomes dustier than a fucking ash tray. Should I get an air filter so it can suck all the dust out of my air before it reaches the floor? It would also help with dust accumulation on non-floor surfaces as well

I find it strange that I never see anyone advocating for systemd to be re-written in Rust.

It's the obvious place to start using a safe language in Linux userspace. Since PID1 spawns everything else and is the most important PID in userspace.

Unlike kernel modules you don't need to use unsafe code anywhere to implement the init and service manager. So theoretically everything in PID1 should be doable in "safe" code. Meaning everything spawned by it would also be much safer.

They should at least be re-writing certain parts of the systemd src tree by now like udev and everything to do with PAM/polkit. The init part should have been done years ago.

I find it very strange that the same big tech companies pushing Rust so hard lately never make a peep about what's running as PID1.

Doubt there's enough available Rust devs to rewrite something as hueg as systemd.

>In addition to running me_cleaner, you could also instead just set the HAP bit (ME AltDisable) in the Flash Descriptor, which would disable the ME after early BringUp (only the ME’s BUP module will be used). Since 23 May 2025, Canoeboot supports Intel Sandybridge, Ivybridge and Haswell gen, and disables the Intel ME using this method instead, because because Canoeboot policy dictates that the project must not distribute such files itself.
On most current Intel platforms that have Intel ME, it is now possible to disable Intel ME after BringUp. See:

If you include the standard I/O library, C is Turing complete.

However, freestanding C without the standard library is only PDA-complete.

This is not a drill, it's finally confirmed that China has a working EUV prototype since early 2025, it's just undergoing testing and verification right now, expected to enter large scale production by 2028-2030.

>In a high-security Shenzhen laboratory, Chinese scientists have built what Washington has spent years trying to prevent: a prototype of a machine capable of producing the cutting-edge semiconductor chips that power artificial intelligence, smartphones and weapons central to Western military dominance, Reuters has learned. Completed in early 2025 and now undergoing testing, the prototype fills nearly an entire factory floor.

>The availability of parts from older ASML machines on secondary markets has allowed China to build a domestic prototype, with the government setting a goal of producing working chips on the prototype by 2028, according to the two people.But those close to the project say a more realistic target is 2030, which is still years earlier than the decade that analysts believed it would take China to match the West on chips.

>The breakthrough marks the culmination of a six-year government initiative to achieve semiconductor self-sufficiency, one of President Xi Jinping's highest priorities. While China's semiconductor goals have been public, the Shenzhen EUV project has been conducted in secret, according to the people.

There is also the fact that ASML were let into the EUV-LLC consortium with a lot of lobbying help from Intel but they had to build US factories and use US parts up to a percentage and they never did the two. So yeah, there are a lot of conditionals that ASML were able to skirt by only because the US government is lenient with them on a lot of things. Selling to China is an easy condition to fulfill in light of this especially when even the EU was aligned on this. And the retaliation from the US would be far worse selling to China than if they didn't sell to China.

What you need is each tech guru to donate you a box of cereal a week, then the other donates the milk (not water), then someone donates some beans to you, and another donates some rice, and you get a government subsidised reconstituted human waste parcel from the government.
Everyone freaks out about eating the bugs, but where we're going, bugs are gone, water? That's for cooling, don't drink your pint of milk all at once.

There's enough tech gurus and capital to donate this to everyone, our needs will be met until humanity is extinct, trust the plan.
