Also from my experience the users on BlueSky are pretty much a straight swap from Twitter. And by that I mean nobody ever bothers interacting with me at all.
On mastodon if I so much as rip a fart on there, *someone* will engage with it. On BlueSky? Nada.

I did and I feel quite happy about it. Here’s hoping there is more web engines out there 👍
unions have layers
It’s such a shame that Rust developers feel like they feel unwelcome, especially due to a complete misunderstanding in implementation details.
Even worrying, this is kernel developers saying they prioritise their own convenience over end user safety.
Google has been on a Rust adoption scheme, and it seems to have done wonders on Android: https://security.googleblog.com/2022/12/memory-safe-languages-in-android-13.html?m=1
But also, there is a bit of a problem to adopt Rust. I think the memory model may prove challenging to some, but I do worry in this case that even if it was super simple, the existing C kernel devs would still reject the code due to it not being C and not willing to adopt a new language.
Huh. Thank you very much for clearing that up - I don’t really watch LTT anymore (not really for a long time, even before the whole i n c i d e n t) so it’s great to have some perspective.
Shame, really.
Linus from LTT is not behind the Framework company/products: https://frame.work/gb/en/about
He may have done a video about them, but that’s about it.
This isn’t the first time they’ve pushed an update which crashes PCs.
IIRC, the development/testing is done on Windows under VMs rather than a sample of real world hardware, so it’s like “well yeah, duh, no wonder why you keep releasing updates that crash & freeze end users machines”
Between shit like this, Crowdstrike, and Microsoft Recall I wonder why anyone even bothers with Windows anymore. I have both Mac and Linux (both which I love equally). Both of them don’t seem to have anywhere near these levels of issues - Macs I would hope not given the eye-watering amount I’ve spent on it, and Linux I could be forgiven if it did give me hassle, but no.
