Type reboot
into an SSH session and play everyone’s favorite game show…
Neither was X11 so it’s in good company
maybe they’ll take inspiration from their avatar and next learn a programming language that’s actually good
you should learn Rust. the type system is so comprehensive that half the time you can guess what a function does (or at the very least what you’re supposed to pass to it) without a single line of human written documentation.
if you (by which i mean you the reader, not OP) use linux for no other reason than to be able to tell people you use linux, kindly get the fuck out of my community
They’re also similar in that if you tell them you use Linux but like Canonical and/or Lennart Poettering they’ll yell at you and call you all sorts of names but if you tell them you’re a Windows user they’ll leave you alone
Every couple of years I think to myself “Ubuntu can’t be that bad, can it? I must be misremembering. Surely it’s just some combination of my memory exaggerating how terrible it was and my lackluster Linux skills, which have since improved. Everybody still recommends it as a beginner distro, right? Why’d I stop using it?”
And then I download Ubuntu.
And then I remember.
Microsoft realized they were losing basically the entire software development market to Linux so they started adding features like a pretty alright terminal emulator and a shell that almost looks POSIXcompliant if you squint (and don’t pass any flags to its built in commands) and trying ineffectually to hide the fact that they were basically on their knees saying BLEASE COME BACK WE NEED YOU

Well, if you were previously throwing anyone who ate the rice in the garbage, then yes, not doing that would be safe.
sorry, I ^couldn’t ^ resist. yes, it’s safe to eat rice without throwing out the first batch of water. see rest of this thread for nuance.
I wouldn’t either had he stopped there (and perhaps been a shade less overtly hostile to someone giving their work away for free). Instead he followed it up with
“Maximum amount of freedom to potential users” is somehow mass-surveilance of every computer user thanks to the BSD license. Thanks for your contribution to “freedom.”
To an extent I agree with this, but “Once upon a time, this guy licensed his code under BSD instead of GPL and basically it’s his fault the Intel Management Engine exists” is definitely a step too far
Did not bother reading the first sentence is more like it
USB-PD changes thr main voltage in response to a handshake protocol on the C1 and C2 data lines, which this cable likely doesn’t connect for precisely this reason. Qualcomm QC still uses D+ and D- to negotiate the higher voltage, which this cable likely wouldn’t connect either.
have you considered just not listening to AI bros and not letting their opinions upset you
That’s assuming this cable forwards PD signals at all.
with the most recent call last, but the actual exception at the top
