Is there anything for all the “subscribe to newsletter” popups on news sites and online stores?

technically libreoffice exists, they really need to fix office comparability though

More than 5 years old includes all the major live service titles at this point, back in the day people would be hopping to whatever new COD/Battlefield just came out, which would lock that metric to 2-3 years max. Since Moore’s law is long dead at this point the technology just doesn’t improve much year over year, and it’s hard to sell a new minor iteration on a game without flashy visual upgrades, the old model just doesn’t really make sense anymore.

I think this is the most important aspect of Linux accepting more rust contributions. More and more existing maintainers are aging out, and people just don’t learn or want to build large applications in C anymore. From what I understand companies doing proprietary kernel development have largely made the rust transition for new code at this point, so fewer and fewer systems level programmers will be used to C (and C++ over time) for these tasks. Existing maintainers pressure against rust development could become a threat to the long term viability of the kernel.

It seems like since my generation had “If you put something on the Internet it’ll be there forever” drilled into us as kids, many of us feel entitled to “the internet” preserving our data for us. Most people don’t realize how much labor and resource usage goes into preserving data forever.

Kagi is the same as ddg 99% of the time.

The company i was with was still using clearcase when those were popular. I’ve used github, gitlab, and bitbucket as git based software forges professionally. In fairness Github is way better than the clearcase process we used.

I’ve used several different forges over my career and github is the worst by far. The navigation is clunky, the search never searches the stuff you want to look at without menu hopping, the recent repos doesn’t include half the stuff you made a PR to recently, CI integration kinda sucks compared to gitlab or bitbucket.

The problem is the Gnome team doesn’t give a flying rat’s ass about maintaining a stable api. I’ve never bothered with extensions because even the most basic stuff only works for one or two versions. The neovim team is pretty committed to backwards compatibility and following standards for interoperability like LSP these days, so it’s much easier for third parties to maintain a large set of extended functionality at this point. If they acted like the gnome team, your status bar plugin would break every other update.

Finding new ways webshits fuck up the most basic development principles boggles my mind. It’s like they intentionally stay ignorant.

Will you need your own account for the proprietary ones? Mozilla paying for these feels like it couldn’t be sustainable long term, which is worrying.

Windows only PWA’s 😮‍💨
