I am surprised, 87 comments and so far nobody has mentioned X11Libre. They claim 30 developers right now. Don't know if true and if they are any good, but when the time comes to update my xserver, I will have a look at…
It is interesting to read what you wrote. Some points as a reaction: "I know that one day I'm going to die". Yes, and most people ignore it and push this insight away. You know who deals with this topic over and over,…
New LLM releases, market trends, interviews etc. http://techinvest.li/ai/
You are correct, I ignored the "static" point. My nvi size was dynamically linked. I want to learn static builds, even thought my distro of choice LFS is not very forthcoming in this respect.
I got nvi for Linux build and working using the patched source code from Debian for nvi version 1.81.6-17-debian. It is 39768 bytes on my amd64 machine (I don't remember if I used some extra flags to make it smaller). I…
I just bootstrapped Rustc 1.58 using only GCC and mrustc sources on an 8 core 16 thread machine with 32 GB memory and lot's of disk space. It took 20 hours. If you think Rust is bloated, I agree.
For the people who use Linux as their desktop, it is already there. People who make this list, are they working on fixing the issues they perceive?
You mean GNU/XOrg/Linux..
Yes, and some are even intended only for the X terminal, not the real TTY. What is missing is a nice library for high level languages, as ncurses is famous and all that, but who, unless they are coding in C, can…
And where is the source? Just asking for a friend..
So nine distros.. I thought there is some fundamental flaw common about all Linux distros.. Distrowatch has what, 160 distros? So way to go.. Either finish that list or report back if you found something that suits your…
If you want to test the water, here is a mega script who does it all in one go in a qemu virtual machine (granted, still some standard manual install of some debian based bootstrap iso): http://techinvest.li/tinux…
