Old kernels still run on it, it just won’t get new versions.
The reason Linux (and BSD) is perfect for old machines is that the source code is available, so anyone can maintain it if they want to. It doesn’t mean the core Linux team has to maintain it for them though.
Perfect demonstration :)
This is just a variant of the “Ask question, use an alt acc to answer it incorrectly” method of getting help.

Install the adapter and epoxy it to the laptop :D
This is basically the opposite of a thinkpad/framework, but m1 macbook airs are cheapish second hand, plenty of battery life, USBC, lightweight and durable. Definitely not repairable or upgradable though, so if thats important forget it.
Can install Linux (asahi project), but macos is Unix like enough that I found it good enough.
You may want to specify what your needs are. What is this for?
No one forced apple to announce AI. They could have just waited until they had something ready.
I started reading and though this was someone who had lost their marbles, by target 2 I was hooked.
And next to his original, fully erect penis, was another one. Identical. Bio-engineered, apparently. He struck a pose.
Poetry.
I’ve clicked the “install updates tonight” button a bunch of times, it consistently fails to update and then I have to force it to update the next morning. Incredibly poor experience.
Thanks, I’ve been on the fence for a while, doing the free trial now
Same. Super easy to do, easy to mirror repos, easy to keep offline…
My repo is fine, because its not online. Keeping them online is just silly.
Lol, if only I had known about this a year ago, that’s exactly what I wanted/needed.
I guess I could change the topic name to “Rewrite of dtach in Rust” :/
Yup, good catch, rushed it out on the train. Will fix
Well, your point stands regarding alacritty_terminal, but right now, it actually works just fine for that test case:
I suspect once I stop directing the raw input/output to the shell, it might become more important.
The name of the branch is probably misleading, its not gonna be better than screen, it was meant to be better than my first attempt.
This is likely to never have any real use outside of my own personal usage.
Yeah, its a bit of a mess, it does so much. The thing I wanted was just the persistent sessions, so probably not gonna go further than that. Of course, the code exists, and someone else is welcome to take it and run with it (I’ll give it a permissive licence eventually).
I had thought screen was pretty commonly known, but its a tool you can use to background and reconnect to a process, with the child process being completely separated from your shell. So you can ssh into a box, start a process with screen, and then logout, return later and reconnect. (It also does other stuff like read from serial consoles)
Codewise, there isnt a lot there, 3 main files (main.rs, server.rs and client.rs) all weighing in at ~200 lines.
It felt premature to add a readme at this stagr, as I dont see this as a complete thing yet, but I can add a readme later today.
You really got dogpiled hard there, as if being corrected half a dozen times wasn’t enough, they had to downvote you to oblivion as well :(
