If Linux is a "Walled garden" the phrase has no meaning.
What does it mean then that Windows is a walled garden? That it can only run Windows software? How is then Linux also not a walled garden?

Linux quickly becomes a quagmire of impracticality once you dare to step outside of the distro-provided or -recommended repositories, so much I would argue it's functionally a walled garden at that point. By contrast, on Windows you can install, run, upgrade, and downgrade whatever you want whenever you want however you want without sacrificing practicality.
This is among the most insane mind acrobatics that I have read in many years. Twisting meanings to make one of the biggest straight jackets among server and desktop OSes that I have ever encountered in my career sound like it's some kind of heaven of freedom is just outright disgusting. (edit: grammar)

#56I'm wondering if anybody have managed to run it on Asahi.
It checks for Pi-specific hardware devices, so you’re unlikely to get it going there.

Re: Wolfram Language and Mathematica Free on Every Raspberry Pi
#57I use Mathematica frequently and, within the niche that it serves, it is starting to remind me a lot of Excel. Both are commercial software, have a low barrier to entry, are powerful enough to run the software for a nuclear power plant, have enough footguns to make this a terrible idea, and are so overused that it might be happening anyway. But I do not think we will get rid of it any time soon.
Could you expand on, for a person who only dabbled with Mathematica some time back, what that niche is?

Linux is more like a walled garden than Windows? Maybe you have a different definition of walled garden or something...

Maybe we have been working with different packages or distros?
Re: Wolfram Language and Mathematica Free on Every Raspberry Pi
#60I wonder who paid who in this deal. Is free Mathematica used to prop up an OS no one uses, on boards no one can buy(for their normal prices). Or is it raspberry pi foundation taking part in Wolfram advertising? Mathematica is a very nice product, but it's expensive. They tend to "get" people by offering cheap licenses through universities. Then there is free and open source Octave. It is just as good for everything I…
