@matrix@gameliberty.club *le unix files
determines file type magically
@matrix yes, I agree with Linus and somehow everyone took it as a personal attack to Linux

Well tbh file extensions are pretty bad. They are basically useless and Windows relies on that too much while at the same time hiding them by default.
@izaya @Guy-on-Poast Yep
@izaya @matrix @Guy-on-Poast What's a tag? For binary formats you can magic number them, but any kinda of plain text and it's ugly and annoying at best
@izaya @matrix @Guy-on-Poast So metadata that's not actually part of the file. Requires external effort and tracking, and wouldn't even copy if you transferred it. Why not "tag" them but in the name, like, an extension?
@izaya @matrix @Guy-on-Poast Yes, and standard and normal and necessary already. That's obviously better than having to ship an extra XML file with everything
@izaya @matrix @Guy-on-Poast This is what you're proposing is actually done half the time. Some mysterious XML file in some hidden opaque place
@matrix @Guy-on-Poast What did you expect, kikerosoft winblows is an orgy of obsolete code and new but bloated code
@matrix this man hast to be after that hate engagement on purpose

No it is not. If you have a problem with hierarchical organization you shouldn't even get a high school diploma. How do you even organize your life? You pantry?
