    > The FSF wouldn't participate in a lawsuit like this because ... Because in reality the FSF is a WELFARE program for RMS. Look, I'm done defending the FSF and the GPL. I worked pr…

    Proton is just emulation, and it will happily expose the underlying host system to the running game software. In particular the filesystem and some peripheral devices. However, Val…

    As ridiculous or absurd as this idea might seem, it's probably the most succinct and likely effective response to this kind of situation. The UK is betting the rest of the world do…

    This might seems like a rant for some of you, of even heretical to certain shell zealots... But it's about time we move past Posix compliance for shells. Don't get me wrong, it was…
