Let’s be honest, we both were childish :)

English is not my first language. I saw the mistake and left it here. You fixated on that simple mistake instead of answering the main point
I’m not sure 10 years old are allowed on the internet. Isn’t it time for Coco and bed?
I agree that Rust would be an interesting choice for this project but there’s a reason why this particular project is done in C++
What are you on about? Yes they made sure their gadgets were easy to use, but Apple and Jobs were the pinnacle of “locking you in” on their ecosystem for the profit of it. Sure they weren’t as careless about users when compared to Microsoft but they weren’t too favourable of you using anything else. They invented this stuff.
Yes exactly. These companies hold rights for far too long in the hopes they can “milk that cow” at any chance they have. The products of these (and many others) companies are electronic waste for many after a while and so normal copyright laws shouldn’t hold for them, it’s just too wasteful.
That’s because these consoles and source code are not always compatible. To make them it would cost them time, money and the compromise to maintain them.
I would rather these companies to be forced to open source their older hardware and source code, so the community could do something with them and not have all the hardware laid to waste. Or at least support the development of emulators
I was caught by surprise and for some reason this joke clicked so much that I laughed for a while. Kudos
Same for me, but still no shipping for my country, so I just bought a used T490 which will serve my needs for 4 years and then I’ll go for framework; hopefully they are still kicking by then. If shipping was available I would for sure have gone for their 13’’ laptop even though it’s much more expensive and powerful than I need for personal use.
Thanks for your answers. I wasn’t able to get what I wanted to work but that’s because the device used broadcast for discoverability which doesn’t work through subnets. I pivoted to something else
Or perhaps it will come from the right? Undefined behaviour is the magic word
Can you point out exactly what is misrepresented and lies?
Religion is the word you’re looking for.
Now that’s the funniest utopian phrase
Haha no drugs in that article at least. I can’t find it but I think it was either for diabetes or asthma
It depends on your needs. I have minis that cost <100$ and have others that cost 500$. My cheapest mini has currently 3TB of backups of my personal things, so it serves my needs very cheaply. I don’t need a GPU so it keeps the costs down.
I read somewhere that someone was using anonymous currencies to buy life saving medicine from “non traditional” markets because they were much much cheaper. Let me see if I find the article
They are power and space efficient, and usually very quiet. That’s fascinating enough.
You keep coming up with insults or inflamatory comments instead of answering the points, when I’m just trying to have a discussion of ideas. I don’t understand why I am being unhinged when I even agreed with you partially.
I’m not a Rust programmer, I just play occasionally with it on pet projects. The languages I’m most experienced in are C++ and then C, I have no “horse in the race” of Rust, and I don’t see c/c++ going away anytime soon, I just see what the language improves on them
You are not very consistent, first you imply that not “being a shitty programmer” is the fix for security issues in C. And then you say that any programmer can and will make mistakes…
Again you refuse to see my argument: yes I agree that viewing Rust, or any other language, as being a panaceia is wrong and following the hype. But Rust is provably better than C w.r.t to memory safety issues because it, provably, finds memory issues during compile time. I’m not discussing other types of security issues.
Yes C needs all that “freedom” with memory due to its low level use cases, but Rust is proving that it can also cover those cases (with the unsafe keyword) and cover the opposite cases where you want more strict memory usage and safety, so much so that you see now operating systems and firmware being developed in it. I won’t argue and compare performance as I don’t know enough.
You could argue that Rust by providing the “unsafe”, keyword can and will have memory issues, but IMO the fact that you need to enclose unsafe operations in a scope allows for more focused reviewing and auditing
So someone who wrote their own functional operating system and browser from scratch which he is now targeting the public with, is not comfortable learning something new?
You are all assuming that the project will be c++ only when the authors haven’t said anything about the matter. Who knows if they aren’t open to moving to rust? The project is originally in c++, not only but, because that’s what the target OS supported. There are examples of other browser moving from c++ to rust (Firefox) who says they can’t do the same?
