"Seamless integration" in this case doesn't read as statement about how well it works to me. It means the applications from the windows appear on your Linux desktop without the "se…

I do tend to let tabs accumulate, but then I turn off my PC at the end of the day and let all tabs fall into the void. I like to start the day with a blank slate. Which seems to be…

Exploiting browsers to gain access to userspace is fairly common in stuff like console jailbreaking. And at that point you can proceed with the same kinds of kernel/driver exploits…

Have you ever executed a script you didn't write? It's handy to have a runtime where you can see what a script can do from its permissions. I'd generally like to see more languages…

Using bar graphs just showing the factor of improvement is kinda baffling. It took me a bit to understand how to read it, which is the last thing you want in a diagram. Just show b…

It is fairly clear that it's not in competition with cargo, since it is literally based on cargo. It installs dependencies that are not managed by cargo, apparently mainly C depend…

The applications still need to retrieve data for the clipboard to be of any use to anyone. E.g. Editor widgets like to have a paste button. Edit > Paste is a fairly common pattern,…
