  • I was going over a bunch of alternatives last week and ended up creating an account here too. Haven’t bought anything yet, but hopefully I will move my namecheap domain here. Seemed to be the one with most available domain extensions with a price tending to be cheaper and even some discounts. Looked and joker and inwx but either didn’t have some interesting domains or were quite expensive. Specially inwx which only understood after creating and account that on top of each domain price I would need to add 5€ for basic whois privacy protection. On infomaniam it seems to be 2.5€ which combined with cheaper prices doesn’t sound so bad.

    I really wish there was a simple provider that only did one thing: sell domains in europe, with all domains possible and cheap enough prices.



  • I was at a coffee shop the other day and 2 lawyers were discussing how they were doing stuff with ai that they didn’t know anything about and then just send to their clients.

    That shit scared the hell out of me.

    And everything will just keep getting worse with more and more common folk eating the hype and brainwash using these highly incorrect tools in all levels of our society everyday to make decisions about things they have no idea about.






  • With the amount of people burning out and the open hostility, no matter how much support seems to be said in the practical sense it doesn’t materialize. The interests are clearly not aligned and keep grinding like this won’t do any good to anyone mentally for sure.

    I can only imagine it happening with a downstream out of the tree patchset where the rust people will just do what they need to do and eventually a bunch of drivers will start to be done in that branch that will never be ported to the mainline. It could take a decade more for that work to maybe go back into the kernel. Like other similar efforts happened before.



  • He didn’t even say anything wrong. In all that discussion and whole thread linus could’ve said anything useful for either side or to help things move forward but chose to do nothing besides saying 2 things and they didn’t address any of the concerns. He just contributed to the problem. One could’ve said that he didn’t read or something, but no, he came, read everything, all the technical concerns, all the needs from the stockholders involved and decided not to address the elephant in the room!

    I would’ve done much worse than hector and call half of the people there names.

    Really people should go to the kernel threads and read all of them carefully and the links to the social media and read them careful too, it’s not too big.

    Anyway what matters is apple/arm work will continue out of the kernel tree, downstream.

    And this could basically also lead the whole rust effort go the same direction by all the betweens lines we can understand in the whole discussion. Basically there are enough people that feel that no other language other than C should ever be in the kernel. Doesn’t matter if it’s rust or not. No other. Even if some people are supportive, there are enough in key positions that will fight to not include it.
