Of course. I’m not happy about many things, but that doesn’t give me the right to harass somebody.

They are not being harassed, but are being shown in this way that their intentions and behavior are more than just shit

Pointing out something politely is very different from jumping on a bandwagon and spamming an issue, or creating meme issues and meme pull requests. We should be better than that.

Is that really what we want? Anything slightly popular making a misstep to be hounded by an online mob?

This is not a misstep. They just don’t want to hire developers for Winamp and rather try to outsource the work to others for no cost. And then they call it copyleft while forbidding anyone to do anything else with the source code except sending them pull requests. That’s disrespectful, rude and simply shameless. This is fully calculated, not a misstep. If it was just a misstep, then I would agree with you about these meme pull requests and so on. Saying this, I absolutely understand why the receive such “feedback”.

This whole thing sounds more like a way to get some pull requests to fix their product for free. That’s not open source. The source code is simply available, that’s all. In the first run they even prohibited to fork it (!!!) while it is necessary to work on this project. They may fixed it, but you are still not allowed to do anything with it, only provide free work. Of course people are not happy with it.

They should delete this repo and change their license if they want contributors for free. Or just hire programmers for money.

You described a problem you have with an OS you use, which I fix every day at work. No Linux, just Windows. It is the most normal thing, that drivers might not work or the Hardware is faulty. We often have to change something, try different things and you don’t need Linux to tinker around, the Windows environment offers enough opportunity to do so. And your problem sounds like a driver problem or maybe faulty hardware. It has nothing to do with Linux.

You definitely don’t work in IT, otherwise you wouldn’t mentioned printing. Printers are evil beings itself and these fuckers don’t care wich OS you use, they just don’t want to work properly. Hardware supports depends on the kernel. That’s normal, Windows 7 also doesn’t support newest hardware. There is still nothing specific Linux. Regarding UI: KDE Neon is great, try it.

Yeah, Windows has problems. But those arise more typically for advanced users (and that’s including Windows 11 being more and more broken over time).

Would this be true, I probably would need to change my profession.

But until the more boring stuff gets worked out, it’ll still be hard for it to be used more commonly, and thus harder for it to get more funding and usage as well.

Because of your ethernet problem? I understand that you are mad for the problems you have now, but I wouldn’t use your experience with the ethernet NIC as a basis for the question how good all Linux distributions are usuable for everyday work.

Idk, maybe it’s just Debian based distros these days and I’m behind in the curve. Fedora based ones like Bazzite haven’t given me issues so far at least.

Look, drivers get updated or introduced in newer Linux kernels. You could decide which distribution you want to use depending on the kernel. amdgpu got fucked up since a specific release and my RX580 won’t work if it loads, so I am still using an older kernel. In Windows the drivers crashes often sadly. You need to look how well a specific hardware works and then decide which kernel you should use. We always do this on work with Windows and it is really needed, because manufactures sometimes don’t really care about there drivers and compatibility with newer Windows 10 versions or Windows 11.

This is probably also the reason why you got downvoted so much, because you describe a generic, OS independent problem and then you blame Linux kernel for it and all Linux distributions, while you are using a specific distribution named Linux Mint. If you replace Linux with Window in your rant, it would be the same way wrong. But I hope that your problem gets fixed. You are free to describe your problem in specific communities, they probably might find a solution with you together.

How is this a explicit Linux problem?

Believe me or not, but I love slimes and watch every anime, no matter if it is abysmal bad or a good one, as long there are slimes. Sometimes I don’t care about story, I just want to see cute slimes jumping aroung. Once there was one which was absolute pain in the ass to watch. But I even read the manga afterwards, because I liked the slime drawings. slime slime slime slime, I love slime slime slime slime

Well, thats something I really dont want. Hardware in my brain. How long till zero day exploits for your Hippocampus

I was once very overweight and loosed weight and also know other people, but never saw a person like him. There is a disease where the distribution of fat is wrong in a human body, it mostly affects women, but even there the distribution never looks like Musk. His legs look normal, but everything goes into his abdomen. According to the fat on his chest, he don’t seem to do sport. But other ppl with this amount of fat don’t have such a grown abdomen. Maybe HGH makes sense.

He is taking HGH? I knew that some bodybuilders take it. And now that you said it, there are indeed similarities. Bodybuilders have a lot of muscles and their abdomen might also be “gigantic”, I guess their intestines are also growing because of HGH. I don’t support it, but why take HGH if you are not training? Its like just makes your abdomen bigger and that’s all. What does he want to achieve with that?

Whats going on with his body? I saw also other pictures of him and it doesn’t look healthy. Especially his chest and abdomen. Like it is not usual fat that people have, but its simply large.

I had frensh in school and don’t remember anything. This language sounds pretty melodic and cool, they can curse the shit out of you and it still has a melodic tone.

Is there a way to buy it? I hear often something about CPUs from China, Russia whatever, but I would like to buy and just try it. Idk, maybe it is cheaper

Why “warns”? Whats bad about? West behaving like morons again.

Its also a funny thing. I mean, somehow thought: “its okay. They say not to use it in places where fault tolerance is important, but let’s do it anyway”.

Regarding Crowdstrike I have to add:

Pleeeeeeeaaaaaaaase stop using snake oil. Cyber-Hyper-Cloud-AI-Treath-Detection is bullshit.

Isnt that something PHP always was able to do? Maybe a title like “tool for uploading/downloading files in PHP” would be better and you could add in in the README.md that it doesnt use JavaScript.

but Im seeing syntax that Ive never seen in my life

Which languages do you know? What is your background?

What is wrong with “var test int”? There is no need for a return type, if the function returns nothing. Thats the language design and I think it is easy to remember.

func(u User) hi ()

u is something like self in Python and hi() is a method of User.

Please explain why do you think something is too messy, also with which languages you have already worked.

When I have problems like this, I start to question whether I can program at all and whether I should perhaps change my profession. This often happens when I’m tired or overworked. I make stupid mistakes and assume that the cause of the problem is something complex.

Just a guess, but I think it is also somehow connected to an handler object

To fully grasp how containers actually work, you should read the Linux kernel documentation on namespaces and permission control via capabilities.

Hmm, I thought the aspect of demystification would also include a brief explanation on, how namespaces and capabilities work.
