It looks like to me that this distro is just a beginner friendly version of void.

(* This deal does not include any direct assistance in getting Vaxry a girlfriend, but I’ll personally be available as a reference for any inquiries on the matter.)
Lmao.
Tbf, I feel like omarchy is just Arch but with preconfigured hyprland. What are they going to do with 8 million?

From what I get, Rust proposes to make low-level coding easier by forcing programmers into a certain workflow.
Yes and no. It forces programmers to a certain workflow like using a borrow checker to manage memory, but it actually makes programmer’s lives easier, because it prevents bugs from runtime. The compiler will throw a fit, over your buggy code if you try to compile, unlike C.
The funny part is that rust is actually a high level language that can do low level stuff.
But functioning C code is as good as functioning Rust code right?
Yes. I prefer C because it is easier to learn than rust, and feel like rust is more comparable to C++. I also feel like llm plus rust is a good combo, these days.
I might be mistaken, but I think kvm stands for kernel virtual machine. Having no /proc, and interacting with sysctl instead sounds more secure, IMO.
Did you know openBSD does not have this folder? I think the BSD’s do not use /proc. I do not know why though.

I mean what can’t run NetBSD? I feel like we should start writing drivers in rumpkernels instead of writing drivers for our OS’s.

This is a concern I have as well. Normies are getting into Linux, or should I say GNU/Linux, without understanding the core concepts of Software Freedom. I feel Linux is has been ready a long time ago, but now Linux is more compatible with nonfree software. That is not really a positive thing. But atleast we are making a FLOSS OS more mainstream.

It could be, but it’s now in the hands of the same evil corporations that made some guys start GNU and shit.
GNU was started because of a broken printer. Jokes aside, RMS got upset that the company that manufactured the printer could not give the source code for him to modify it to make the printer better. That is when he founded the gnu project and the fsf.
Idk why your comment has the most upvotes. I will give an upvote to you anyways.
BSD actually heavily inspired crux, arch, and gentoo. The aur and portage were inspired by BSD ports. Now of course, I do not know which BSD did the inspiration.

I will check out more of your content. OpenBSD is a cool OS. What is your opinion on desktop OpenBSD?

Why is the site image puffy from openBSD?

I totally agree. Install xorg and wm, and boop startx. I couldn’t wrap my head around the idea of a wayland compositor, and it is still troubling me. When I do have a Wayland compositor set up, it definetly feels like a cleaner setup. I do not hate Wayland, but consider it different.

There is pheonix, and it is written fully in zig. I think it is a X11 protocol built from scratch, but will include modern features like HDR and VRR. It will also become compatible with Wayland apps along the way. I do not know the status, and I did not do much research on it.

Obviously it will be opt in I think, but there is definetly a concern of a slippery slope.

That sounds like Ubuntu in the future to me.
I do not understand or see the news. It is just the homepage.
