They probably mean Open Container Initiative (OCI), the protocol shared by Podman and Docker.

Yeah. If Valve releases a remotely viable desktop console OS, I’ll immediately build one for my living room. If for no other reason, to keep the rest of the family away from my SteamDeck.
As in if you live in a state with sales tax but down the road is a state without sales tax- why ever shop in your state?
Mostly the states are quite big, so it’s not worth the trouble. But along various state borders, it distorts the shopping experience in odd ways.
I’ve been towns that are missing common retailers entirely, because everyone drives to the next town over (in another state), to avoid a tax.
We also have a rich history of driving across state lines to purchase stuff that’s illegal in our own state. It’s also illegal to bring it back, but the borders aren’t patrolled, so the only way to get caught is to have a traffic violation while doing it.
Or so I’ve heard. I never break any laws, myself.
Cool chart.
It really makes the point to me that the PS1 and PS2, when adjusted for inflation, and for relative compute power, were just such a fantastic deal.
I was recovering from some serious console-purchase fatigue, when I bought my PS1 to replace my garage sale purchased Super NES. It was a big deal to me.
I’ve paid PS5 prices (inflation adjusted) for a game system a few times (my first Switch and SteamDeck), but they’ve been a lot more mind blowing than what appears to be on offer today.
Disclaimer: My favorite game is 8-bit, anyway.
Yeah. The idea of an automated C to Rust replacement of the Linux kernel is fascinating. As you say, there’s probably stuff in the Kernel that Rust’s compiler won’t allow.
I imagine it wouldn’t work at all, out of the box, but it might reduce the cost curve enough to make a dedicated team of very clever engineers able to cross the last mile, given time.
As cynical as I am of both Rust and AI generated code, it honestly feels like trying an automated conversion might be less of a long shot than expecting the existing Linux kernel developers to switch to Rust.
And I’m sure a few would kick in some thought cycles if a promising Kernel clone could be generated. These are certainly interesting times.
Lol. If Rust fans want a Rust kernel, no one is stopping them from building one.
Some other good answers already but here’s a sound byte version:
It’s currently expensive to borrow money, and then the borrowed money isn’t as useful as it used to be.
and therefore is the one and only acceptable proprietary launcher.
Yep! But that’s only until they decide to enshitify, which they (Valve) will, because they (the humans making the correct choices today) will sell or retire.
Makes sense. I only really replied there to help anyone reading along.
There’s many very basic features of vim that VsVim does not have (like… almost all command line commands), basic features which regular vim users use all the time.

It sounds like you haven’t tried VsVim in a long be time, or had an unusually bad experience with it.
(Edit: My responses to your other points were my old man energy, and not worth anyone’s time, so I removed them.)
It’s simply false to claim that vscode has more features than vim
Holy shit. I would never claim that. Lol.
Not sarcasm. I’m genuinely satisfied with VSCode’s Vim emulation, and you’re the first person I have heard say otherwise.
I just meant - that means you’re using features that most of us aren’t.
Fair point about evil mode for Emacs being better, but that requires using Emacs, which I have found un-usable, so far.
Also, the vim plugin for vscode is kind of a joke compared to what vim can do.
Dang. Hot take! I don’t think I’ve heard anyone else say that.
You clearly actually completed VimTutor.
I have several complaints about the VSVim plugin, but it’s easily the most feature complete Vim-like plugin I’ve ever encountered.
I’m trying to pay you a compliment, but I am doing it poorly.
As a legend among my Vim using peers, I can see how VSVim can be frustrating, to someone who truly leverages Vim.
Your annoyance with VSVim outs you as one of the true power users.
Interesting! I learned something here. Thank you.
Had Metternich not stood in the way of “progress”, Austria might have reformed, dealt better with its problems of nationality, and the First World War might never have happened.[94] Instead, Metternich chose to fight an overwhelmingly fruitless war against the forces of liberalism and nationalism.[95] Heavy censorship was just one of a range of repressive instruments of state available to him that also included a large spy network.[72] Metternich opposed electoral reform, criticising Britain’s 1832 Reform Bill.[96] In short, he locked himself into an embittered battle against “the prevailing mood of his age”.[97]
Sounds familiar. He’s certainly not the last person to do so…
They’re basically Steam Machines tailored more towards retro enthusiasts.
Styled to look like a Sega DreamCast
Priced from around £300.00 to £500.00
It’s fantastic, especially for non-gamers.
There’s a huge library of cozy games, and arcade games, and retro games, and adventure RPGs, exploration games, puzzle games that all run terrific on a SteamDeck.
The average randomly selected game from my Steam Library has run fine for me, on my SteamDeck.
If they ever make a smaller model with a clam shell to protect the screen, it’ll be the perfect game system.
I regularly recommend configurations to peers that are arguably impossible for normal humans. (Not on purpose! Sorry Dave!)
I love to run stuff on Raspberry Pi, and I fear no gcc
compile flag. (Ok. That’s a bold faced lie, even I fear a couple of them.) So I frequently forget the bullshit I had to do to get something weird running on a random Pi.
I’ll let you know… If it finishes.
Lol. It’s not the groundhog we should be watching, then?
