sudo is MIT also (or something that looks like MIT at least). https://www.sudo.ws/about/license/

The more critical part wrt license is real coreutils which they also want to replace.

And yet, ancient Windows binaries will still (mostly) run and macOS allows you to compile for older system version compatibility level to some extent (something glibc alone desperately needs!). This is definitely a solvable problem.

Linus keeps saying “you never break userspace” wrt the kernel, but userspace breaks userspace all the time and all people say is that there’s no other way.

Would be cool if this results in being able to store the Photos library in Nextcloud. Not holding my breath though.

When will people learn that GitHub isn’t the place to put code that was previously removed from there?

Yeah, but it isn't noticeably "less stable" if at all anymore* unless you mean stable as in "essentially in maintenance mode", and clearly good enough for SLES to make it the default. Stop spreading outdated FUD and make backups regularly if you care about your documents (ext4 won't save you from disk failure either which is probably the more likely scenario).

* not talking about the RAID 5/6 modes, but those are explicitly marked unstable

The software Wikipedia runs on is called Mediawiki. And yes, you can self-host it.

The Brother laser meme is real. They also make color ones, I have one myself.

I have NixOS running on my main desktop with some unusual changes:

• / is mounted as tmpfs, with /etc, /nix and /var being mounted from the actual system partition (this actually isn't too uncommon on NixOS)
• For swap, zswap and dynamically allocated swapfiles using swapspace daemon (this is imo the best swap setup if you don't need hibernation)
• Akonadi (KDE's PIM server) using PostgreSQL instead of MySQL
• ISO8601 date format, for this I have glibc's en_DK locale which does this copied to en_SE because Qt has en_SE as the locale with ISO date
• A couple changes to make the layout more like macOS because I can:
  • Partitions are either mounted or auto-symlinked (if they can't be mounted there, such as for the system partition) under /Volumes
  • I patched udisks to also mount devices under /Volumes
  • User home directories are under /Users and root's home is /var/root
  • Keyboard layout changed as far as I can to be mostly like Mac's so I don't have to rethink layouts as much when switching between this and my MacBook
• Can't technically list this anymore since I've had to tear it down for unrelated reasons but NFS using Kerberos authentication for my NAS
• This is apparently very unusual since a lot of games completely break with it but two monitors with the main monitor on the right

I need to be able to RDP with multiple screens to my work laptop running Windows 10.

They aren't.

This is about the programs, not the services. Apple Music on Mac can also buy music from iTunes despite not being called iTunes anymore.

I don't see an issue with this.

One of these is not like the others (and it's not CMake).

Also, the syntax is absolutely mental but I like CMake :V
