And if you don’t have an initramfs?


The 2038 problem is from using a 32 bit int


I’m sure Linux and any other GPL kernels and the entire open source world are immeasurably ruined by LittleKernel - apparently running in “billions of bootloaders” and mainly contributed to by someone whose GitHub organisation is “@google” and who authors commits during working hours - existing.


Neither interpretation paints the commenter in that good a light.


Wasn’t it the fact that Windows included TCP/IP that led to the consolidation of networking around TCP/IP out of dozens of alternative protocols?
This discussion isn’t meaningful without an account of how much proprietary contribution there has been to the Linux (or other GPL) network stacks. In any case, somehow BSD survived.
And none of this alters the fact that whinging about other people’s choice of software license is entitled as fuck.


Does it really weaken the entire open source software world? Is anyone actually going to use this instead of the Linux kernel? Is anyone then actually going to modify it in a way that they would have upstreamed to Linux had they used that? Odds are slim, aren’t they.
AND! It’s not your damn project! Run your shit how you want to. Live and let live. Linux isn’t going anywhere.


How dare someone make something available to everyone in a way I personally disagree with


Good.


It’s gnome, it was likely broken deliberately in the name of “simplicity”
Not sarcastic, animations add greatly to the understandability of what’s going on which is helpful anyway and especially if you fat finger something.
But yeah I don’t especially want to put loads of time in either heh
