This is a very cool concept, but has anyone actually gotten this to read as a qr code?

I've tried a bunch of apps without any luck.

Yeah, bring back Usenet! (rabble, rabble, rabble) /s

Who would have guessed that "Weekend at Bernie's" was a documentary.

I totally agree. Season 1 and season 2 were the apex of the series - exactly for the reasons you mentioned.

Season 3 and 4 lost a lot of the magic. Season 5 and beyond, I've cherry picked a few episodes and always ended up asking myself "meh, why did I watch this?" I expect nothing more from the upcoming season.

I really wonder if they just ran out of innovative ideas.

Not the Fediverse Chick?

....that last step will be a doozy.

I don't know if you tried it or not, but I'd suggest that you install the latest release from their Download Page, as opposed to other sources.

I've noticed on Android, that the F-Droid Version is not "quickly" updated and frequently breaks due to breaking changes from Google.

(I've also just upgraded to v4.0 on my android phone and it's working - good luck!)

Spotube: It's not the greatest UX, but will read your Spotify Playlists and supports offline mode.

I just laughed and said oh well that's what you get when you moved from on prem to cloud.

Our Techs said that you couldn't buy on-perm exchange anymore. You needed to go with the cloud subscription, which "includes" all the crap you don't want: like Teams.

Atleast, they said didn't make financial sense to pay for Google Workspace + Slack + Cloud Exchange, when MS offered their (lesser) services as a bundle (but the human suffering is real) :(

What?!? Actually, read the article? What is this, Reddit? /s

Seriously, though - let me spin the question around: what, in your mind, overlaps with what Greg said?

(plus, OP was just interested in people opinions - not whether they align/contradict with Greg, Linus, etc)

In my mind, introducing Rust would only make sense if:

  1. There was a serious lack of current kernel developers (which I don't think there is)
  2. New hardware and tech was evolving at a rate that the Linux Kernel could not keep up (again, I don't think this is am issue)
  3. The end goal is to migrate the entire Kernel to Rust.

Regarding point 3, having both C and Rust really only makes sense as a transition phase (measured in years) - as it would require kernel developers to be savvy in both C and Rust, or would force developers to stay within whatever domains were implemented in C or Rust.
