  • Ok, I need some context. What straight here means? I can guess it does not mean having good aim in FPS or being tech literate.

  • Multiply by i to make it imaginary. If you want, you can multiply by i again and make it positive.

  • "God is mocked openly in the public square"

    Lucky one. Other gods are forgotten.

  • I like that Linus is so strict on not breaking user space because this obviously aids with compatibility and it's probably a big part of why rolling releases work.

    I think kernel still has compatibility with paleolithic glibc enabled by default

  • This is why Finland is most happy nation in the world

  • Combustable lemon

  • Is she impolite when she is not angry?

  • Upd: looked at future conversation. Mauro got it.

  • "We don't blame bugs on user programs"

    Linus says extra clear that the bug is not in user space, it's in kernel.

  • But don't be too factual or you will be Linus

  • Yes. I did not include patch from first person in screenshot because I thought it would make it too boring to read. But it kinda adds even more to context.

    Replying to "I get this regression with KDE on this system caused by this commit and here how I fixed it" with "lol, pulseaudio sucks, opensuse sucks" of course will make Linus angry and he will reply not only "no u", but also "and here's why".

  • So Linus should have sided with someone who in regression report of KDE using 100% CPU starts blaming pulseaudio and opensuse and double down on blaming pulseaudio? Instead of fixing syscall returning completely unrelated error code. It's like if your router crashed with message "there is no milk in your fridge".

  • Where is abuse part? More like victimblaming from Mauro.

  • How to communicate with someone who in conversation about KDE randomly blames pulseaudio and opensuse?
