"But I get the feeling that some Linux kernel maintainers just don't care about future code quality, or about stability or security any more," Lina wrote. "They just want to keep their C code and wish us Rust folks would go away. And that's really sad... and isn't helping make Linux better."

Why is Hector so backwards? Linux, written in C, has been an incredibly stable piece of software, which has been proven to be secure by many people and agencies. He should follow what they say not the other way around.

Rather than test their patience with the kernel's politics, DeVault suggests Rust developers build a Linux-compatible kernel from scratch. "Freeing yourselves of the [Linux Kernel Mailing List] political battles would probably be a big win for the ambitions of bringing Rust into kernel space," DeVault writes.

Oh Drew. Fuck off. As if we didn't have enough OSs that went nowhere. And if yoyr only value proposition is "written in Rust" you know it's a banger project

I’m all for a new kernel written in Rust. It will take the Rust stasi agents away from Linux and the kernel can go back to normal.

I really, really support the idea of Drew and Hector and Lennart Poettering gathering as many of their friends as possible and banding together to abandon Linux forever and create an entirely new kernel on their own, with Blackjack and queer trans hookers of color. I think they'd do a great job and everyone would appreciate it.

Why isn't he writing it in Hare? Is it already a 0 year language?

Why would Microsoft pay them to do that?

Why would Microsoft pay them to do that?

It wouldn't. But it's a passion project, dawg. There's no greater opportunity for Hector et al to stick it to the haters and show them that language choice in the kernel is more important than money.

Why would Microsoft pay them to do that?

Multiple reasons, actually. MS, despite all claims to the contrary, still operates on Embrace, Extend, Extinguish when it comes to competing technologies or external systems they have to use. It has embraced the Linux ecosystem, with the subsystem for linux and azure amongst other things, but its (and the wider allied industry's) attempts to control the kernel development process hit something of a wall even after Linus was struggle-sessioned into accepting a CoC and Rust. The person in the video objecting to the Rust developer's attitude was Ted Ts'o, who was the target of a definitely-not-coordinated attempt at removal from the Linux development team after rejecting changes by both Microsoft and Intel to the kernel driver interface. He's a powerful voice amongst linux kernel devs and has been amongst the most vocally resistant to the sort of entryism that MS normally uses to gain control of competitor technologies. They can't get around him, so their attempts to extend mainline Linux with interfaces that are only useful to Microsoft and Intel are stuck,

Having a drop-in replacement for the Linux kernel, using a language with no standardised specification, would give Microsoft a golden opportunity to, if not absolutely control the broader linux ecosystem, at least divide it into industry-blessed and non-blessed parallel ecosystems. Lack of language specification means it can invent whole-cloth proprietary extensions to the language that force compatibility. The fact that the entire kernel development would be under the thumb of the sort of people who blindly suck corporate wang, as long as it has a rainbow flag painted on it, would give them the ability to dictate changes as they saw fit. They could even have an open and enclosed version of the kernel, with the enclosed version working on Azure and favoured for Subsystem for Linux, while the open version works as a way to draw people in.

Would it work? 20 years ago, it could have. It's unpredictable now, but that's never stopped MS trying before.

But all these scum are being paid by Microsoft to destroy the very concept of open source. It's not like they're making their living selling troonshine, especially Poettering.

Only two autistic men would do something like this. Over 4000 messages in one day.
Assuming awake time at 18h, that's about 4 messages every minute.

The fucking retard, that lame joke doesn't even make sense with postfix increment, it should be ++flirting and his naming convention for variables also sucks.

 

[The Real Slim Shady]

He is a total idiot and not a nerd. That chart sucks and was made in google sheets, the labels on X axis are so dense it's unreadable. The average doesnt make sense because the values are not around some level, a rolling average would be better. Make the Y axis logarhitmic. All of this on top of the fact that even thinking about doing this to someone I love is so creepy it made my skin crawl. Disgusting, I wonder when Hector's gonna set KPIs to how many uwus they send to each other.

You just know that graph's going to get cited one day in an application for a restraining order.

 

[NoIdeaWhatImDoing]

i don't get this kind of people. What is their sexuality?

Byuu i got, he was gay.

But the Hectors of this world, they are into lolicon and pretending to be women (barely ) but they are sleeping with fat men who are also into lolicon and pretending to be women. What's that?

He's a gay man pretending to be a gay woman. So double gay.

 

[The Taxman]

So… Two fat retard faggots is going to do some weird soap opera roleplay as cartoon girls…

He is into extremely niche hobbies in the most autistic manner possible, on top of that he is into loli. Add "living in Japan as a weird foreigner" and all the traits of his personality that we see and discuss in this thread. At some point your dating pool reaches size of 1 and you are going to fuck that person no matter what.

Yeah, you see that with troons a lot. There's prison gay, and then there's autism gay.
