Both parties are the same apparently
Also “hunter bidens laptop” /s
It’s literally 1 party which isn’t following any laws and getting in shit fights with literally, vs a party where Israel is the only bad thing that can be said about it…
It’s like that black mirror episode with Waldo.
If you look at the places he isn’t orange, he’s possibly deathly pale too.
Nobody chooses to go orange unless they have something to hide. And he used to be a normal color
Heart problems and such cause people to look grey
Except doesn’t this replace their old tool? So, its not really fragmenting anything if its replacing an existing project.
Fragmentation isn’t great, but it can be beneficial in some cases too. I’ve contributed to a number of projects.
Over the last 20-30 years, I’ve seen plenty of projects fail, and new ones take over.
If you take a look at arts/eaudio and the other sound servers of 20 years ago. All failed, because Pulseaudio consolidated and killed them eventually. Now, Pulseaudio is on its way to getting killed by Pipewire. And one could argue its a waste of resources… but, the changeover is actually super awesome (for JACK)
One other good example of the fragmentation argument was Xfree86. Lots of people argued against Xorg at the time, and ultimately, Xfree86 died ages ago. If you asked me 20 years ago, I would have said KDE was dead, but now Gnome and KDE and carved out VERY different products, that suit very different people. Both are awesome in their own way
Everyone was freaking out when devFS got deprecated. But, udev was an amazing replacement
Linux is evolving FAR quicker than Windows or MAC (mac OS has barely changed in a decade). And, many ideas introduced in linux are stolen by Windows and Apple.
At the end of the day though, sometimes a rewrite is needed of things. What really matters is that it doesn’t fragment the desktop experience (and, it won’t in this case)
Rather than downvoting. This is a good teachable moment
I used to think this way, that it was about efficiency exclusively
But the reality is, any contribution is better than none, and a lot of these things implemented you don’t really understand how important they are until a while later often
One consideration also is that Germany is apparently considering to continue their Linux migration, so things like this may also be based on feedback from admins
Suse has definitely carved their own niche as a Linux distro and it’s actually sad they’re not more successful because a lot of their tools are pretty cool
No surprise from a guy who was convicted of tax fraud.
I’m sure he’s gonna start blaming it for his tax issues soon
