Just the fan over the stove?

“S-Q-L ‘aight” for SQLite?

Look I love GPL to death but I’m not going to pretend that every OS vendor on the planet needs to give away everything for free.

You can like two things at once, and in my case I love my walled garden, commercial OS for end-user stuff as well as Linux for networking gear and servers. I used desktop Linux for awhile but at the end of the day I like things like Airdrop, AirPlay and the seamlessness of it all.

Honestly, I like BSD operating systems more so than Linux ones despite the licensing arrangements. Linux is open as hell (obviously) but it’s super disorganized. I haven’t found a package manager I like as much as pkg (especially installing binary packages and compiled from source packages side by side with shared libraries).

Looking forward to being downvoted to hell for having a differing view of Linux than all the recent Windows converts.

I was always a fan of .cue for this. Dump it all into a big audio file and let the .cue sort it out.

That’s a lot more involved than what I ever did. I only put an Enya track inside of some totally-not-Enya song to confuse my friends, but only if you seeked the track.

I’m mostly used to it now. Though -r is supported in macOS’ rm command I still prefer -R and use it even on Linux where I believe -r is the preferred argument.

My favorite thing was burning discs with hidden tracks, especially before track 1. Or inserting a song/sound within a track requiring you to seek to find it.

Too bad for me this was around the time CDs were on their way out, but I hold hope that my old friends from those days might still have those discs.

Actually that’s a good point that I’ve completely forgotten. Docker uses the modern macOS APIs for virtualization these days, and uses Rosetta2 for amd64 containers.

Edit: Damn you’ve got me excited about FreeBSD again. I’m a much bigger fan of FreeBSD on bare metal but do love Docker and related Linux goodness!

It is now, but it was bash before.

But in any case once you start doing anything remotely advanced you’ll find the individual command line utilities are wildly different between macOS and Linux. They seem (are?) much closer to FreeBSD than GNU utilities.

I came to say the same because the spoon sounds like a bigger problem than using fingers.

As a person in that demographic it’s wild to me that leftism isn’t appealing… we’re supposed to just blame everything on everyone but ourselves I suppose?

This is why I take a late lunch every day. Every standup I’m like “I’ll wrap up this small issue from yesterday, then move on to something bigger…”

Usually the “small issue” is finally done around 4 PM.

That’s interesting. I haven’t really used Windows since the XP days so I didn’t realize there was already some VM stuff going on to begin with.

I always wonder how Docker works on macOS with a more UNIX-style kernel than Linux when even FreeBSD gave up on the effort.

I understand macOS is way closer to Linux than Windows (despite its differences) but is it really that hard to do Docker/OCI out of Linux?

Why did they give up on the wine-like approach? That seems so much better than running an entire VM (not even a Microsoft person but still).

I feel you. My first jobs were in fast food, then Walmart, then warehouse jobs after that. So even though I’m a web developer now I still have that eternal frustration with people moving too slow.

No, but I’m genetically predisposed to being very sensitive to caffeine so there’s that.

What I always thought to be my first memory. I explained it to my mother and she said she only lived in the place I described for the first six months of my life.

I always thought it was fake because I thought it was impossible to have memories that early on in life.

Same, but the shakes are from both caffeine and starving. Not sure if I’m eating due to hunger or because it feels like my heart is going to explode.

That kind of phrasing always seems they assume that not believing is the same as rejecting and therefore you too believe in the existence of God/god.

They just completely miss the point.
