There's a pretty easy, cheap, and straight forward fix for this.

Stop using apple products. They are luke-warm in design and terrible in execution.

No shit.
Bullshit like this is why I cancelled my NYT sub.
The only thing I really hate about firefox is the build. Building FF from scratch is a fucking nightmare. It's the only shitty package that REQUIRES python 2 for building.

No, lol.

That's what the world needs... More plastic garbage

40k seems a tad on the low side, by several orders of magnitude.

Seems like a hastily done spring projects

Rust isn't hard, it's just more verbose than devs are used to because it forces you to think about lifetimes and types.

Re:Raspberry Pi update removes the default user on Friday April 08, 2022 @01:44AM (#30953696)
Yeah. That's an installer.

An installer is a script/program which helps the user install the software, in this case the OS is the software.

It's very important to swear at your pain.

It helps tremendously with pain management.

Yeah, but do we REALLY want M$ to control, github, npm, node, rust, python, and ...
`cargo` is like `make` but fancy. so `cargo build` is the same as say running `make`
