Command line browsers do exist but are usually worse than the others mentioned in terms of site support.

Yes, you CAN stop there, the other qualifiers I added were specifically because C sort of assumes those to be present and while there are C to bf compilers they emulate that functionality on top of the more restrictive, but turing complete, architecture. I was listing the things C assumes/requires the hardware to be able to do for reasonable performance and compilers not emulating features.

These are not language features but features of the C standard library and are only required if you wish to use said library, they have little to do with hardware requirements or the language itself

You aren't wrong but classically a high level language is one that is abstracted from the hardware which is precisely why C is considered high level. You don't have to think about registers, instructions, stacks, etc, you just call functions with arguments and write "high level" code. It's on the lower end compared to modern very high level languages but it's still considered high level. Classically most non-assembly languages are.

Yeah, I get both sides too, I also want Linux to be successful but I'm just disappointed this is what we're resorting to. Although I guess as long as I don't have to use it it's probably for the greater good?

I still use them exclusively lol

Ironically it's actually the opposite. Linux has signals, and with the exception of SIGKILL and I think SIGABRT they can all be handled gracefully. Windows on the other hand doesn't have signals, it can only TerminateProcess() which is forceful. The illusion of graceful termination on windows is done by sending a Window close message to all of the windows belonging to a given process, however in the event the process has no windows, only forceful termination is available due to the lack of a real mechanism to gracefully terminate processes. That's why the taskkill command tells you a process requires forceful termination when you run it against something headless.

Further increase confusion by having error pages where all 3 are green

Assembly being obsolete has to be the funniest joke in here. It fundamentally never will be even if its use is niche

...this is so much more cursed than it needs to be. If you want to bash in C just system("echo hello world");

Dragonfucker strikes again. The number of posts I've seen by him or about him in here is... something

It's replacing all instances of arse and ass with bottom...but doing so in about the most naïve way possible.

When script kiddies are the new high we've collectively reached a new low

I refuse to go to sites that do this, I also refuse to go to sites that block adblock...and specially the sites that detect and block private browsing, that one shouldn't even be a thing
