Yes, they are different but as you can see it wasn’t smooth either: https://www.techspot.com/news/103899-crowdstrike-also-broke-debian-rocky-linux-earlier-year.html

I’m not sure how ClownStrike works on BSD, though .

The problem with that logic is that this failure was not caused by Microsoft, it was caused by ClownStrike. Their software works on Windows and Linux (not sure about Mac) and they fucked up the linux software a few weeks before the Microsoft incident.

Even if Linux had more market share in the affected endpoints they would still have been affected, just on different timelines I guess.

Yeah I forgot that they do this weird ANSI/ISO mix for laptops.

I believe most people in Europe use a localized ISO layout. I used ISO for most my life but in my personal opinion ANSI is way better for software development. I just don’t see myself ever going back to ISO.

I wish I was brave enough to try Colemak or Dvorak, tho!

Don’t really want to invest in a language designed by Google.

Rust is definitely something I’ve been keeping an eye on. The syntax looks a bit scary, to be honest, but looks very versatile.

That reminds me, I do own a pine64 device! It was the first thing I got on Kickstarter.

It’s a Pine A64, with 2gb RAM. I wonder if it has enough power to run all those things. It’s a budget device from 8 years ago, probably gonna have a hard time but I’ll give it a try if I manage to find it!

Raspberry Pi was my first choice, but apparently I can’t even back order it :/

I don’t agree with this. It creates a monetary barrier to starting a new channel. If uploading costs money the number of uploads is going to reduce considerably, no one likes to throw money away.

I make bash scripts to automate the configuration of new servers. Stuff like install packages, create users, create groups, configure the database, manage permissions…

I feel like that sort of stuff would be a nightmare to do in high level languages but maybe I’m just too used to bash.

Thanks for the feedback. We currently use a self-hosted Gitlab on our company but it uses a lot of resources. Was wondering if I should take a look at forgejo.

Not sure I would want to host my code on a random instance…

Does it support CI, or is just a version control?
