Well, unless this is an offer to buy me a replacement Quest or Pico (all of which, work on Linux) “yes, I’m going to stay with Windows 10” (and/or maybe dual boot).

… because I have a Samsung Odyssey+ VR headsets, which needs “Windows Mixed Reality” (Windows VR) and was gutted/removed from Windows 11 (and doesn’t work on Linux).

…that last step will be a doozy.

I just laughed and said oh well that’s what you get when you moved from on prem to cloud.

Our Techs said that you couldn’t buy on-perm exchange anymore. You needed to go with the cloud subscription, which “includes” all the crap you don’t want: like Teams.

Atleast, they said didn’t make financial sense to pay for Google Workspace + Slack + Cloud Exchange, when MS offered their (lesser) services as a bundle (but the human suffering is real) :(

What?!? Actually, read the article? What is this, Reddit? /s

Seriously, though - let me spin the question around: what, in your mind, overlaps with what Greg said?

(plus, OP was just interested in people opinions - not whether they align/contradict with Greg, Linus, etc)

Oh absolutely, but you could argue the same for learning lisp or mastering any functional programming language (list comprehensions, etc). It will improve your design patterns when you go back to an object oriented language with some elements of functional programming.

In my mind, introducing Rust would only make sense if:

1. There was a serious lack of current kernel developers (which I don’t think there is)
2. New hardware and tech was evolving at a rate that the Linux Kernel could not keep up (again, I don’t think this is am issue)
3. The end goal is to migrate the entire Kernel to Rust.

Regarding point 3, having both C and Rust really only makes sense as a transition phase (measured in years) - as it would require kernel developers to be savvy in both C and Rust, or would force developers to stay within whatever domains were implemented in C or Rust.

Fantastic! Thank you for sharing this.

I have it installed, I’m curious how effective it will be.

Lately, I’ve been reporting AI generated cruft as “spam” to duckduckgo. In fact, it’s not really spam - as there are some nuggets of useful information, but so sparse, I’d rather of skipped the article/website entirely. I hope these kind of Blocklists will evolve to include this kind of quasi-spam.

I’d definitely add a +1 to lemm.ee

The admin is open and honest, he’s got a clear set of goals, which is to make lemmy accessible - nothing more, nothing less.

Lemm.ee doesn’t participate in the whole “federate vs non-federate” drama or crippling features (ie: removing downvotes) because it goes against their ethos/mantra.

There are instances that lemm.ee defederates from, but they are usually due to extreme vore, cp, or other content that could expose lemm.ee to some legal problems.
