"Ubuntu's 'Rust-ification' Hits New Milestone: Coreutils Migration is Complete"
All I'm thinking in the back of my mind is... there is a reason Ubuntu's user base has shrunk from it's height and dominant position to one of being dead last.
The sad thing is even distributions that are following it that I more or less like at least as far as end-users are concerned (being easy to use and all) and undoing a lot of the crap Canonical had undertaken (in particularly thinking Linux Mint here) I'm a bit concerned that they're not moving off it fast enough. Undoing Canonical's screw ups is a waste of energy.
The actual value-add over Debian has largely been in the LTS releases and point releases thereof and that was mainly the graphics stack to support newer generations. That is without this component updated in addition to the kernel you end up stuck being unable to install a distribution onto a newer generation of hardware.
@smallcircles this is a very good blog post!
I didn't see a link, so I wanted to check: are you familiar with the #Unhosted project?
I think it provides a great model for networked computing -- bring-your-own identity and storage, with an open-ended application domain. It was one of the projects that was an input to ActivityPub.
I think the difference from the #ActivityPubApi is that AP supports activity distribution by default.
@cjd HA! This is perfect!
It says "not found." Which is true about American Politics. There's nothing to be found. It's all a business investment, board meetings, & middle management. Plus everyone's on the take.
@beardalaxy They're still around? It seemed like they've stopped appearing after DoorDash took off.
@SuperDicq @grumbulon @Suiseiseki @phnt He made a few games like Linux Tycoon.

@kumicota Well, given that they see everything through a political lens, they can still cancel you, even if you don't have a social media presence connected to your FOSS presence.
By my principles, I object to including CoCs or banning people for off-site conduct and that makes me cancel-worthy right there.
Though I do regret not brushing up my programming skills for the past decade. Was way too suckered into the current events going on at the time even though they didn't affect me and it really distracted me from doing what I truly loved.
