It's unfortunate in this game you can only turn right

The upside to immutable is you can't unintentionally change the system to break it. The downside to immutable is you can't intentionally change the system to fix it, if it somehow does break from updates

I think they should just create a policy where unmaintained software gets removed? Or flagged where it's easy to filter out.

Most AI slop just gets abandoned, but a real developer who wants to maintain FOSS software long term with some AI assistance is quite a different thing.

Is he even very tech savvy? Like IIRC he tried to install a Linux Desktop once. And on installing steam he went ahead with the terminal prompts that were warning him whatever weird command he did was going to nuke his desktop environment.

He didn't invent a programming language. He designed a framework for a programming language. I assure you the second one is a lot easier. It's like a library of functions and class suites that make programming quicker and easier as the boilerplate code you'd have to write is done already.

Despite being advertised as a community-driven project, key decisions, including financial management, partnerships (with Kayak, for instance), and the inclusion of proprietary components in the code were made by a small group of shareholders, often without input from the broader contributor community. These shareholders have reportedly used the project’s donation funds for personal expenses, like holiday trips, raising serious concerns about financial transparency.

Which is why they forked CoMaps.

They specifically aren't vibing it though.

As they say it's useful to find vulnerabilities which is true.

And as far as code they said:

Frontier models are very good at finding bugs but it requires an experienced developer to babysit it and extract the useful portion of the output. Important bugs are often found but mixed in with a bunch of low quality output.

Which is the opposite of vibe coding.

It's fair to dislike any LLM usage. But it can have value. But it's often coming from unethical entities like OpenAI and Anthropic etc

Stable vs Unstable does not mean anything to do with bugginess or prone to breakage.

It literally just means package version changes.

Stable meaning packages update slowly and only minor versions or security.

Unstable means packages update frequently including major versions

Inherently rolling releases are unstable.

My personal experience too is that Arch has been the best distro for lack of bugs and issues on my machines than Fedora or Debian etc.

You're probably the first person ever to daily drive MX Linux, the most popular distro according to distrowatch

262 views.. good shit.

I had only really ever played Sim City 2000 and 3000 but man the art on that screenshot looks like absolute peak of pixel art on old PC games. Like I don't know how you could get more detailed while retaining that aesthetic.

Its also for my experience the worst way to use apps.

The fact that I can't "update" my software without closing it first.

Why can I do that with all other package formats? I get it won't be the new version until I reopen the app but still. Its unnecessary friction.

Also with the prompting last I used it Firefox couldn't download anything with it enabled.

Like you ship Ubuntu with like 4 major snaps including the security center and it hasn't or hadn't worked with your shipped snaps for at least a year?

You can buy second hand phones and then Google doesn't get any more money. Easy solution.

Did the same thing. Degoogled to Proton, felt like they don't put effort into their Linux versions. No drive still. And started giving me bad vibes over the past few years.

Moved to mailbox.org, back to bitwarden etc.

The cloud storage has been my biggest hurdle. Filen seems decent.

Cryptomator + KDrive has been on my mind due to such a low price and it has WebDAV allegedly

Debian might work but it will always be behind and if any performance upgrades are done at a kernel level or a DE then you won't get them until those fixes are potentially already obsolete.

Switched to using Linux like 6 years ago. Wouldn't know how bad Windows 11 is but I can only imagine.

I mean that is what Edmund McMillan started as, up until the remake of Binding of Isaac really

The more Emojis in that Readme the better!

Nvidia obviously

Another problem though is the best Flatpak store Bazaar's Flatpak version is broken due to Ubuntu apparmor. There are workarounds but they don't really seem to be doing much about it. There's a deb version in the repos but it is currently very out of date as its a newer app with fairly active development
