That's kind of like asking why we're not all driving Ford Model T cars, after all you could drive in them just fine. Technology moves on, best practice moves on, Hell, everything moves on.

A quick glance at the Agama repository suggests that the server is written in rust and the front end in react. I've no idea how it all works in practice as I don't use Tumbleweed any more. I really liked the yast installer but it was getting old.

Why isn't everyone working on Arch instead of wasting time with all those other distros?

He really is a fucking tory

For Android, you can install DNSNet

Aww, it smells of her human.

How often do you look at your keyboard anyway?

More than I care to admit!

Just to add, I have been told by people who know, that you should always update when installing a new package because not doing so can leave your system in an inconsistent state. Just get into the habit of running pacman -Syu <package-name> or if you use yay, yay -Syu <package-name>

The difference is that most of your software is built for your distribution, the only exception being some proprietary shit that says it supports Linux, but in reality only supports Ubuntu. That's my pet peeve just so that you know!

Ctrl+D sends EOF, so no it's not like enter.

You'll never get perfect binary compatibility because different distros use different versions of libraries. Consider Debian and Arch which are at the opposite ends of the scale.

The biggest problem with wsl is that you have to have windows as well.

If you're developing specifically for Windows, you're going to need Windows somewhere in the process be it bare metal or vm. You will also have problems with Excel on Linux although you could try the online one.

Jeffrey Combs was also in B5

Oh yeah, so he was.

Here's hoping Ned gets well soon. My senior kitty was OK with a single gallstone, although I had to keep an eye out for infection.
