Why do you people love over-engineering and bad architectures so much? Do you have any sense of engineering beauty? Modern CPUs already run every application in an isolated sandbox under "protected mode". There is no need to emulate a machine with hardware devices, run a separate kernel, drivers and services. The only problem is that the OS kernel and privileged system services usually grant too much ways to bypass the sandbox. So the proper architecture would be to re-design and fix the existing OS instead of using ugly hacks like VM.

I also use VM to run code editors and AI. One must be crazy to run third-party software (including package managers like npm) unrestricted. The overhead is significant, and VS Code UI is lagging heavily without a GPU.

Yes but you can calculate inflation using different means. DRAM price grew many-fold, did pensions increased the same way? Or, to be more realistic, they may calculate inflation using cheapest and barely edible food and not account for fresh vegetables and cheese.

On Android many things available on Desktop Linux are disabled by selinux. For example, af_alg algorithm (encryption kernel module writes out of bounds) is not accessible by user using ADB.

USDT is implemented as a contract written in Solidity, working over other network like ETH, and it has a blacklist managed by admins. Once address is added to a blacklist, you cannot spend anything from it.

Probably not everyone knows, but USDT has a "black list", and admins can prevent any address holding USDT from spending. The black list is implemented in USDT contract.

So USDT is not truly decentralized and your money can be frozen for any reason or no reason at all.

Is this problem a Nobel prize level problem?

"Standard shell" also should allow Ctrl + C for copying, it makes no sense to use a different combination for console.

UNIX doesn't exist anymore, and C has lot of negative points (easy to create buffer overflows, integer overflows, use-after-free, and other vulnerabilities).

Emacs is probably older than me why should we care about what they used in 80s?

Why are they using weird key combinations instead of traditional Ctrl + S, Ctrl + A, Ctrl + C used in desktop applications? Why every console program wants to be a special snowflake and not use standard key combinations, please explain. I do not care that 40 years ago someone used Ctrl + C to send SIGINT, it is 2026 now.

The problem is too few lines of code and controls can fit on a small screen. How many lines of code fit on your 12 inch screen? On my screen there are 40 lines and some space for window headers and top bar.
