32·1 month agoCan’t speak to him, but I have used unix-like software since the 1990s.
The entire UNIX philosophy boils down to one simple fact. Everything is a file.
This makes maintenance a breeze as no special tools are needed.
You don’t need to install anything to read log files.
You can pull a hard drive from a dead system, and just read all the logs.
Most of systemd is just a solution in search of a problem.

If a business charges nothing for a product then it is not the product. You are.
Sometimes that’s harmless as in they’re wanting you to try their service. Your business for other projects is still the product in that transaction.
Other times it’s your personal data that is the product and they’re wanting to then turn around and monetize that data.
But in both scenarios, you, or something of yours, is the product.

Technology@lemmy.world•New Rules Could Force Tesla to Redesign Its Door Handles. That’s Harder Than It SoundsEnglish
3·3 months agoI had a 1989 Ford Probe without a handle that stuck out like a typical car. It was recessed instead.
Better for fuel efficiency, which was also the intention of these stupid flush mount ones Tesla has been fawning over. But these were still manual door handles designed 40ish years ago…

5·3 months agoYou didn’t look very hard.
Cheap zigbee stuff exists everywhere. And zigbee is an open standard, so if it works, it will work until the equipment breaks.
The Linux kernel isn’t really much different between any distribution of Linux.
If it works on one, it works on the rest, in like 99% of cases.
The only real exception to that is custom distributions built specifically for a particular device or subset of devices.
In other words, for embedded devices, like phones, routers, TVs and such.
And those aren’t going to be running Ubuntu.


It’s cute that you think THIS is where “not taught bow to think” begins.
Ever since the first government run school was created, it’s been about teaching what to think, and not how to think.
When “public education” was first proposed in the USA, it was seen as a way of teaching the “poor unfortunates” just enough to be able to run the equipment in the factories. If you wanted your child to have an ACTUAL education, you hired private tutors.
But now, even that is frowned upon. “But kids need socializing!” Meanwhile their definition of that is a little different than simply teaching your kids how to behave around others…
