Looks neat, but again, 99% of those utils I've never ever thought "this shit too slow" or "UX sucks". Replacing for the sake of replacing I'm not too keen on.
We were both kind of right, actually. The initial 2013 release was Apache 2.0, they moved to BSD+patents by 2014, then relicensed to MIT in 2017
I see what you did, and I appreciate it
I only tend to replace if all of those are met:
- there are neat additional features or a performance gain that's noticeable in regular use
- there is some maintenance history
- It doesn't completely break my workflow.
So far, only things I've actually replaced are aliasing ls
to exa
/eza
, and switched to ripgrep
for most of my uses of grep
.
- Headless capitalistic entities don't love their users.
- Native support or this are the best case scenarios.
- Those workarounds would probably get flagged as cheating by those anti-cheat software, hell, some of these work as literal rootkits. I think Riot/LoL is a special case, they don't directly support it, but also don't treat it as a bannable offense, or something like that.
Niagara works fine here.
React? I however seem to remember they did try to change the licensing at one point...
Blind unwavering nationalism is a cancer. The (North?) American Dream is one of individualism and corporate reliance. It's slowly seeping north of our common border, too.
If you only focus on the concept of a serverless function and forego 99% of the other stuff, yeah 😛
Python feels more like writing JS/ECMAScript without any punctuation.
I don't know Ruby enough to judge, but I'll have to say, hard disagree on this particular statement for me. JS to me feels like a bastardized C with some functional-inspired syntax tacked on top, while Python feels like writing English.
You don't have to open a single terminal window if you don't want to, nowadays. Hardware compatibility is mostly excellent, outside some specific vendors that keep giving trouble (fucking Nvidia, go fuck yourself). I'm not sure what's inherently complicated about the modern Linux experience otherwise, outside having to figure out what's a distribution. Most have app stores with bunch of stuff available OOTB, excellent software, etc.
Now, I'd have agreed with you 10 years ago. Just installing Ubuntu on a laptop meant dealing with shit power savings and non functional sleep unless you were ready to tweak obscure config files and install stuff manually. Wifi support was a nightmare.
Unless you're speaking about software availability, which is not something you can really blame the OS for. Unless vendors make their software available natively, of course trying to mess with compatibility layers like Wine will always be complicated. I still can't fully get rid of Windows because of media creation software mostly - music/audio DAWs are slowly coming over to Linux, but most commercial plugins obviously aren't following. The rest is pretty smooth sailing though. I haven't had a single fluke with my PopOS partition in years, while I've already had to repair my Windows partition twice in the same period - once for a borked update, and the second it just broke itself after a power outage.
