How do you call people that do whatever everyone is doing without thinking about the consequences?

Actually it makes sense. Look around and check how many people actually take action even if it's inconvenient. Almost no one. For example Amazon and Uber are bad for society in ways that most people understand and are aware of (monopoly, gig economy, killing small businesses, exploiting workers) but what % of society actively avoid them? 5%? Less? So a lot of people will complain that Twitter under Elon is big source of hate speech and misinformation but vast majority will not do anything about it. Probably 5% left for this reason and the rest got annoyed with technical glitches and other changes. Most sheeple will keep visiting.

I wouldn't say that we don't want to, just that it was never the true objective. 20 years ago to goal was to make Linux just popular enough so that big corporations would stop ignoring or directly fighting it. There was a real danger that MS will convince PC manufactures to lock the bootloaders, most websites will run only on IE and Linux will not have drivers for most devices. I could end up just like all the opensource phone OSes: few supported devices, few contributors and few users. But we managed. Most big corporations now actively support Linux and Linux has support for most devices. I would like to see more articles acknowledging this win and less articles saying that "still non everyone loves Linux".

I said it before and I will said it again: fuck off with the constant "Linux is not ready to go mainstream". Who cares? There will always be some software that doesn't support Linux and there will always be people who will prefer Windows. The goal was never to move everyone to Linux or create a OS perfect for everyone. The goal was to for Linux not to die because of shady MS practices, lack of HW support, DRM and proprietary standards. Guess what? Linux is not going anywhere now. We won. We can talk about something else now.

Tried couple of times and it didn't work. I had more luck with AppImage. Don't use it, don't want it.

I worked for a company that did automated warehouses once. Their development over many years went something like this:

1. Fully manual: people would pick stuff from shelves and put it in baskets. It was organized in a complicated way but that's not very important, it was manual in the end.
2. Mixed: they had packing stations. Worker would stand in front of a screen and plastic create would come on conveyor belts and stop in front of them. They would have plastic bags below the basket. Instructions on the screen would tell them what to pick up. For example a crate would come full of soda cans and they would see "put 3 coca-cola cans in the bag" in front of them. The bagging process is very hard to automate because robots have trouble recognizing and grabbing things. The crate delivery system was fully automated and very complex. It would take up to 20 minutes to take a crate from the warehouse and deliver it to packing station so everything had to be synchronized so that all the crates needed to fulfil and order would come to specific packing station one after another. The move from manual to mixed models cost them hundredths of millions to develop. They had to build new warehouse from scratch. The mixed model still had lots of people dealing with edge cases like cutting cheese or handling fish.
3. Another mixed: they had this huge cube like structure with small elevators moving plastic crates up and down inside of it and small robots moving the crates between stacks on top of it. You could tell it which create you needed and the cube would pick it up and deliver. It was the same as the huge warehouse as in it would deliver the crates in specific order but was a lot smaller. People would still have to bag it manually. Again, this was build in a new warehouse from scratch.

So as you see the thing is moving from one model to another is really complicated and requires rebuilding everything. They have tons of warehouses optimized for people so it makes more sense for them to build humanoid robots than rebuild all the warehouses.

Well nvim, obviously. It's pretty much fully featured. With LSP plugins you get all the code completion, hints, type info, docs and so on. You also get typical navigation like 'go to declaration' and some basic refactoring. And all inside the best editor there is. I'm using it for C, JS, JSX and Rust and all works great. I honestly prefer it to IntelliJ, it loads faster and is more responsive.

Cool. Mozilla Send was really nice.

rsync and rm

Ok, but how will this help them get more users? Because I can easily see how it will make them less users.

I tried using it couple of times and it was really bad. Not even the map quality or the routes but the GPS precision was terrible making the app unusable. Probably something with my phone...

But Magic Earth works great. Never had an issue with routes taking longer than on google maps but I don't use to for anything tricky with possible shortcuts like big city navigation. Mostly long distance trips.

We do understand capitalism. How do we dismantle it?
