These people wouldn't know what a fascist was even if Hitler took a dump in their cornflakes.

Meaning of the word has been twisted and manipulated to refer to anyone who has a different opinion on something, to the benefit of actual neonazis and fascists.

I would guess easier reactivity and state management on the client. You don't have to do things the jQuery way in manually having to sync your DOM to your data on changes/api data.

Microsoft can kick security vendors out the kernel, but they can't sell a product that uses APIs not accessible to other vendors.

ZFS isn't a real competitor given it's not in the kernel and has legal troubles.

Defaulting to degraded is a bad default. Mounting a btrfs device array degraded is extremely risky, and the device not booting means you'll actually notice and take action.

> BTW: Even SLES SuseLinux Enterprise says use XFS for data btrfs just for the OS i wonder why

Because XFS is far quicker for server-related software such as databases and virtual machines, which are weak points on btrfs due to its COW model.

The point of "standards" is that you don't need to target platforms.

Because someone actually did the work that provided what people wanted and needed.

which so far no one else has done

There are Linux distributions that have been certified UNIX, it really doesn't mean anything anymore.

Yes, iOS still uses users in the technical "Unix" sense, they're just not mapped to actual physical users, but instead to various services.

Android is in a similar boat. They're still an important way to manage filesystem access of programs.

> Eternal shame on Google for not insisting that Android would follow the "PC model" of the user being root on their own machine and DRM ..

To be fair to Google, banks don't usually allow you to download and generate EMV tokens to perform card transactions on your PC, which places a different set of security requirements (legal requirements too) on Android phones for things like Google Pay to exist.

I don't see how this article does or even aims for anything but just more toxicity and division.

Jesus complex?

Enable/disable disk encryption or reset a machine on Ubuntu via only the UI.

You've been able to do both on Windows and macOS for other a decade now without touching a terminal.

or repair a broken install etc

> Depending on correct glibc, dependencies being installed with the right settings, environment variables,makefiles being compatible with what your system has,having the right kernel version, etc.

Apart from having a bingo at what dependencies you bundle, AppImage makes no effort to actually solve this, where as Flatpak and Snap do. The reason glibc, environmental variables, dependencies is important is because the Linux desktop is not a single distribution etc, nor is there one arbiter keeping ABI stability.

You venture out onto a distribution that is not what the AppImage was built on and you see what a wild ride it is of if things are working or not. Incompatible curl versions, glibc, mesa, etc.

AppImage pretends to work like .exe on Windows, or .app on macOS, but it doesn't share anything similar with them at all. Both Windows and macOS have stable userspaces where things don't change, Linux on the other hand...

For refence, Flatpak solves this via freedesktop runtimes and Snap solves this by installing Ubuntu containers.
