I don’t think partisan is even the right word here as many Lemmy users are too far left for mainstream political parties. In fact I am further left than most any mainstream party, but am still considered a capitalist shill by people here.
Normally the people talking about water use have no idea what they are talking about. Normally data center cooling is closed loop, much like a cars cooling system. So they don’t use significant amounts of water at all.
Windows NT also used to be POSIX complaint. Is it Unix?
Maybe I care about things other than API and ABI compatibility, like I dunno actually having Unix code?
Visual Studio on Mac isn’t the same as on Windows. I don’t know what you are using it for, but every time I have needed VS the mac version hasn’t been enough and I have had to use the Windows version.
Yes iOS and macOS development requires macOS. This isn’t really surprising. It’s like how Windows development requires Windows and Linux development requires Linux.
Actually containing Unix code and adhering to Unix APIs and ABIs (which is what the standard is) are two very different things. If meeting some API requirements is all you need that’s fine but you might as well call Linux and FreeBSD Unix too as they meet POSIX standards or close to it. Heck Windows was actually POSIX compliant at one point. Might as well call that Unix too.
As for that list article: Number 1,and 2 requires an application has been ported to macOS (you would know this if you actually read about and understand this stuff). An Numbers 3, 4, and 5 is just running Linux in a virtual machine and as a dual boot. I could run Windows or macOS applications on Linux using Wine and virtual machines, does that make Linux compatible with Windows and macOS? No.
6 is rebuilding a Linux project on mac which requires it to be source (and therefrom API) compatible.
Can I speak to someone who isn’t condescending to people with more accurate information than them?
macOS isn’t Unix and doesn’t contain Unix code. It was based on FreeBSD which is “Unix-like” but has moved further and further away from that.
macOS also can’t just run all Linux applications. That’s nonsense. It doesn’t use the Linux kernel or its APIs and ABIs.
I am interested in what tools are missing on Linux that exist on macOS?
Because they are wrong. MacOS isn’t Unix and it can’t run all Linux software.
Can you give some examples of well run organizations and the techniques they use? I legitimately want to know if it’s possible to do better than most of our current governments, companies, and societies in general. This world is a mess and I have half given up on it ever getting better.
Not really. Technical knowledge is still a form of knowledge not wisdom.
Not nearly as addictive as alcohol or nicotine but here we are.
I don’t think they implied it was a cure.
Your thinking of antidepressants.
In this case though the backdoor was added recently so updating could do the opposite of help here. Luckily I don’t think any stable distros added the new version.
It’s still reporting to Microsoft and has all the restrictions they place on it.
Ironically people do actually use Edge on Linux. Beats me lol.
Where is this coming from? Do you have any sources?
Why OpenBSD in particular? I am also curious what is wrong with Linux?
Learning python isn’t jumping in at the deep end. Learning assembly or C would be the deep end. Also programming has little to do with maths anymore, and the maths you use for programming isn’t the kind most people are taught in school.
Except many like mine don’t have that option. The best they have is “optimized” charging that tries to only hit full when you go to unplug it.
I mean they aren’t instant and have to be within a fairly short distance of the thing you want to sterilize in order to work because they are absorbed by the air. Something like a pool would be practically impossible as water also absorbs UV and a pool is too big to penetrate all the way through just from the sides or bottom. It only works for drinking water because you pass said water through a tube that must be fairly narrow.
Oh yeah and an X-ray could sterilize all the way through an object, not just the surface. Very useful for making things like microwave meals.
So how come NASA was doing all these things before SpaceX even existed? SpaceX never put anyone on the moon. NASA did.
