    Here's what we're gonna do. We're going to do the equivalent of x11 application network transparency but with wayland.

    Kind of like streaming a desktop with sunshine, but on an app by app basis.

    Also we're gonna make a client that work for it on android, windows and in a browser.

    Then I'm going to fuck you in the ass

    I appreciate the usage of the pi 1 and not one of the newer versions.

    [–] secret300@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

    Maybe I'm just old but old pi was special

    [–] evidences@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

    Pi 1 was an amazing idea, I ordered one as a sonon as they were available and then never used it for anything. I've bought way to many pis since then.

    Put the gun away and throw that cpp book in the bin, fool. I brought The Linux Kernel Programming Guide, which is in C, and my own socks, which are wool. Now let's gets crackin.

    [–] mycall@lemmy.world 4 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

    Bonus points for some Rust device drivers.

    Never touched rust, so I don't understand the hype. I'm not arguing against it, mind you, but I'm gathering, more and more, that it's worth a look. Maybe I'll look into it after work.

    [–] snekmuffin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 hours ago

    even all of that hype about memory safety and borrow checker you keep hearing aside, the actual coolest thing about Rust is how it does Traits instead of classes and that you can bind arbitrary data to enums

    [–] Pickle_Jr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

    I already use linux. My feet have been getting cold lately. it never occurred to me to get wool socks. Is this how it starts? Are skirts next?

    [–] SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.world 5 points 8 hours ago

    Unless you use goat wool socks. Then you can go for a old school hippie build. Sandals, long hair, tie dye shirt and go from there.

    please don’t make me read another bjarne book. the last time i read one it made me want to stop programming

    The cool kids are forcing people to read this at gunpoint nowadays

    Right? It's in the kernel and everything now. Linus likes it. Linus hates everything. HOW MUCH ARE THEY PAYING HIM?

    [–] wander1236@sh.itjust.works 36 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

    Big Rust has gotten to Linus

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 hours ago

    Not the L man!

    [–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 17 points 11 hours ago

    Did he actually say that he likes it? My impression was that it's not his comfort zone, but he recognizes that for the vast majority of young programmers, C is not their comfort zone. And so, if they don't hop on this Rust train, the Linux kernel is going to look like a COBOL project in a not too distant future. It does not happen very often that a programming language capable of implementing kernels gains wide-spread adoption.

    [–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 19 points 12 hours ago

    One (1) good programming language is what they paid him XD

    [–] 30p87@feddit.org 7 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

    I'll never touch Rust.

    I hate the syntax and cargo too much for that. If that means that I'll never write mission critical, low level code, so be it.

    Linux is C only, ever read the rant by Linus last century about C++ ? I was there, in usenet

    [–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 3 points 7 hours ago

    He's having the same rant every couple of years. It's always funny.

    [–] trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 35 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

    They're about allow bits of rust though

    [–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 9 hours ago

    Have they tried applying a bit of protective oil coating?

    Wat? Don't you dare talk that way about my favorite multiple personality disorder clusterfuck of a language.

    [–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 21 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (3 children)

    C is the only language, all the rest are mental disorders (/j 😉)

    Edit: maybe rust, but it's on thin ice XD

    I still.like fortran better. (And I am not even lying.)

    the author of C++ said that C gives you many opportunities to shoot yourself in the leg. You have a much less chance for this to happen with C++, but when it does, you will blow your whole lower body off

    That's not socks that's a gun

    [–] UnhingedFridge@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

    Am I going too hard by making shortcuts to start and stop SSH on my steamdeck desktop for easier file transfer? Feels like a basic security step when connecting to other networks, while not wanting to remember the commands to enable, also wanting to avoid keeping the perms permanently open for the sake of unknown backdoors. Even added windows stating if it was started or stopped in the case of extra sauce or herb.

    Ayy girl, we're going over and beyond with your network security, because we all do a fucky wucky from time to time.
