Cursor is not really anything that I feel a need to customize. It’s a pointer that changes shape according to context, and the default implementations usually do it at least decently.

TIL Winamp was still active as a project

Alpine for example uses musl, and Gentoo offers it as an option.
I don’t completely understand the benefits, my own programming experience is several layers away from inner workings of an OS, but at least some distros claim there is space for improvement.

The role of a distribution is to curate packages - select the right combination of versions and verify if it works together. Providing package repositories is also a big one, imagine if you had to compile everything on your machine yourself on every update (khm gentoo khm).

Other than that there isn’t really a lot of space for innovation. After you have a kernel, some base packages, package manager, and maybe a DE, you can install everything else yourself.
The main point of differentiation these days in on the package management side - do you want a rolling release, or a more conservative approach.

There is one point of innovation left, but it highly technical and somewhat risky for everyday users - libc alternatives. The C standard library is one of the few core packages in a distro that can’t really be replaced by the user.

And then it gives you the most generic answer how to run a docker build, that doesn’t actually address the problem

I hear this criticism all the time, but I’ve never seen it happen in 5 companies I’ve worked for so far. Usually there’s an understanding that estimates are wild guessing, and things are planned using dependencies rather than timeliness.

Sigh unfortunately it’s true. One thing I learned about American culture through the years is that everything must have a race. Food, drink, sports, music, neighborhoods, bus lines, careers … Everything is assigned a race and only people of that race can use it without criticism

Making decisions in God’s name - that should be heretical or something?

The mayan one in 2012 was the best one so far. There was some real hype about it, movies, media, news, everyone was on it.

In the end it turned out that it was the day Gangnam Style became the first youtube video reaching 1 billion views. Some would say it really was the apocalypse.

I’m sorry but you can be violently anti-religion without being a fascist.

Yes, that was exactly my point. I’m complaining that in the current political scene there are no parties that separate those ideas.

Unfortunately most leftist parties in Europe suffer from the paradox of tolerance. And rightists are hypocritical in opposing Islam but supporting Christianity. There’s nobody anti-islamic who’s not a fascist, which is ironic since in some ways they are quite similar, and both are harmful to humanity.

(And to make it clear before you accuse me of being fascist, I oppose the currently dominant version of Islam which is not separable from politics, and which insists on actual belief in god and quran. Once it becomes a weakly held cultural category like Christianity in most of Europe I’ll be fine with it)

You get burgers which are possible to eat with hands?

It just the generic “burger place“ design. I haven’t seen a burger restaurant that doesn’t look like this.

So it logically follows that all the bad ones will look like it

Ok but your memes are utterly incomprehensible.
I don’t know if should upvote or downvote

Specifically for a job of Linix sysadmin, probably yes. If you can afford it do a certification, it will help you stand among other candidates with no work experience.

For other IT jobs it’s not so relevant. Linux is technically on the servers but the infrastructure is hidden from you by multiple levels of abstraction.
