Embrace it. Teach these people how to use data URIs to “embed images into the HTML file”, then laugh when they burn even more tokens.

There is ReactOS, which is an ABI-compatible kernel and operating system. That is as close as we are going to get unless pigs start flying.

Popsicle = should take a seat over there
One-eyed monster = a fan of Austin Powers

That is incredibly ironic.

It relies on the .NET runtime already existing on the system, so it can’t even be excused as a false positive mistaking an embedded language runtime as malware.

Either way, somebody pays Apple $10} a year. After paying them the equivalent of a kidney for the hardware. No thanks.

It’s not. They both expose a POSIX API and userspace, but the underlying architecture is very different. macOS is in part based on the Mach microkernel, and creating a process has a bunch of work related to that.

Even ignoring that difference, macOS has built-in signature checking that suspends a newly-started process the first time its executable is seen.

What language was it written in? I read that Microsoft Defender likes to flag the baked-in runtime of some languages as malware because they commonly shows up in actual nalware.

Whataboutism

Good luck convincing tankies with that definition. They will just claim the definition doesn’t count because “the UN is a Western imperialist facade pushing US propaganda.” The same goes for any source that doesn’t agree with their ideals, for that matter.

Anyone following the thread can see that the “accusation” being referred to is China being imperialist.

ZZ? ZC? Come on now, copilot. You have more options than simply killing it.

Hey now, someone doesn’t need to be an abusive piece of shit to get a gummy. They could just really be into grandma.

Most people with that little money aren’t going to go out of their way and assume the risk of investing in new ventures. They’re going to put it in some managed or unmanaged fund recommended by someone else, and that money is going to be invested in something safe and presumably profitable on an infinite time scale, like a megacorp (or 500).

It would amazing if the everyday worker’s savings went towards aiding the local community in starting new businesses, but I wouldn’t count on that being the default.

The typical conservative response to that is “but then they’ll take their businesses elsewhere and now you get nothing.”

The typical conservative response also fails to even consider just how difficult, expensive, and risky it is to move a large business to an entirely new region. Real estate has to be purchased and sold, employees have to be relocated or replaced, logistics have to be established in the new region, valuable business connections and contracts will have to be severed, and for brick and mortar businesses, the competitive landscape will be different.

There’s a few of them. Notably, the guy who didn’t care that AI art is built on the back of copyright violations getting pissy about his AI-generated art not being eligible for copyright.

But more importantly here, I don’t think most artists in the gaming industry are in much of a position where they can stand by their artistic integrity. If every publisher pushes studios into using AI to be more “productive”, the choice becomes between slopping or starving—and most people don’t like starving.

We as consumers are the only ones that can afford to push back against this shit. Our survival doesn’t rely on buying DLSS 5 games so we have the ability to boycott them to send a message.

Which is uncannily large for the wrist it’s attached to.

They’re not awesome when your workflow revolves around the command line and you’re stuck choosing between wasting days trying to layer your configuration on top of the project devcontainer or giving up and using the unconfigured bash shell included.

The Darwin kernel is based on BSD… sort of. It’s a monstrosity hybridization of an ancient version of BSD and the Mach kernel.

You should do dev work in devcontainers anyway.

Devcontainers work for Visual Studio Code when developers are more than happy to click their way through running builds and debugging problems. But, as someone whose workflow is optimized for the command-line, they can fuck off.
