For anyone curious, the full comic is called The God of Arepo.

“The bar was so low it was a tripping hazard in hell, and yet here you are, Limbo dancing with the devil.”

Because capitalism and corporations don’t care about the progress of humanity, they only care about making more money.

Now lets watch this technology become prohibitively expensive unless you plunge into a millionaire debt.

Servo is being actively worked on. Maybe it can become a worthy adversary to chrome?

Well, time to add Ragnarök to my Apocalypse Bingo Card.

It isn’t?

So, straight out of 1984?

And equally, Google is yet to use the big guns they have. Don’t get me wrong, I hate Google with a passion, but they have way too much power over the internet for us to leave even a dent on their plans.

Ah, yes. The leftpad incident.

Guess this XKCD still holds strong, just like that package.

A surprisingly increasing number of companies seem to be making suicide sprints lately.

Boy, thank God that you don’t have to deal with the draconian legacy codebases that governments have. There’s a reason no sane engineer wants to get even near them, and it’s because any change, no matter how small it is, completely breaks the entire system and no-one knows how.

Sure, a new system could be developed from the side, but implies getting engineers in a higher level than interns and governments don’t have good reasons to hire them. Their broken system gives them the perfect excuse for their bullshittery.

It did sound a bit like you were cheering for it, but I understood the message you were trying to transmit.

Not being a hip new language is an advantage on my books, and on many others’. PHP has been battle-tested and was once (and in a way, still is) a pillar of the internet. Stability always trumps novelty. Rust wasn’t exactly created with the internet in mind, but PHP was, and it’s way easier to find PHP developers than it is to find Rust developers (last time I checked).

Though the performance boost provided by Rust over PHP is not something to be ignored, though servers written in C or C++ have also been around for quite a while, and PHP still managed to trump many of them.

Things can still take a turn. There are a fuck ton and a half of pull requests still not pushed on the main branch that fopefully fix many issues.

Also, lemmy has been in development for quite a bit longer, so I wouldn’t give up on kbin yet. At least I won’t.

Buys the whole fucking deck twice

If I could, you can bet your ass I would.

Not Mac OS, but I am using a linux distro, and can confirm it’s Firefox, as I’ve reinstalled everything from scratch and only Firefox seems to have this problem.

Not crashing my computer after using it for a few minutes would be nice.

Are crucial SSDs good? I’ve been pondering getting a new SSD lately, but with this news I’m starting to lose hope on WD.
