You don't know. You weren't in the trenches. You don't know half of the ridiculous and reddit-coded software names that have been and still live like ghosts in the lower levels of your OS. Ever heard of a recursive acronym? Words from obscure sci-fi original serieses scar the land of open-source software.
You know, I have a soft spot for gen X nerd culture so it kind of warms my heart to see their legacy show up in open source software
Also sorry to any gen xers here for acting like you're dead. You know what I mean, yeah?
In all seriousness, I'm a bit young for much of it, but I know how to you feel. I feel like the idea of 'niche' has been destroyed lately. Everything is popular and nothing is unheard of. I miss having stuff that I and a few other dedicated people know about.
the corporatization of MTG deck names has been a travesty. You WILL NOT name combo decks after breakfast food, you WILL use guild or clan names for colors even though the strategy has nothing to do with ravnica. Your favorite plane will be new york city.
I prefer to imagine that there are irl scenes for various interests that never discuss scene matters on the internet, and I just don't know about them. It is heartening to think that perhaps I'm just not cool
You gotta get into woodworking or architecture, there's words nobody's ever heard of in there.
I had no idea how many chisels there were before I started watching hand woodworking videos on youtube
Have you HERD of GNU HURD?
What is SONiC? Software for Open Networking in the Cloud (SONiC) is an open source network operating system (NOS) based on Linux that runs on switches from multiple vendors and ASICs. SONiC offers a full suite of network functionality, like BGP and RDMA, that has been production-hardened in the data centers of some of the largest cloud service providers. It offers teams the flexibility to create the network solutions they need while leveraging the collective strength of a large ecosystem and community.
