Some people may want folks to come over to linux, but that doesn't mean they want those folks to bring the windows approach to operating systems over to linux.

If they're looking for a Linux that's a perfect (or imperfect) clone of Windows, they should probably stick with Windows, because it's not going to happen and it would be an incredibly pointless exercise too.

strace, ltrace, hell, dtrace. if you have the source and aren't incompetent, gdb and valgrind.
are just the first few that come to mind.

Oh, you're looking for a tool *exactly* like file/regmon that craps out tens of thousands of lines in a piss poor performing text widget, faster than it can actually handle the input, so by default you have to add blacklisting filters (in addition to the dozen blacklisting filters that come preinstalled) to even narrow down the data to what you may be looking for? Yeah, sorry, I don't think that's happening, nor that anybody really needs/wants it. And it only makes sense for the classical Windows problem "something is wrong but nothing tells me even remotely what may be going on so I'll have to look at all processes and the kernel at the same time", anyway.

The premise here is people switching their OS, isn't it? I'd say the people who don't want to learn how to use new tools would also not want to learn how to use a new OS?

I'm blocking 3rd party javascripts everywhere. I do often get the captcha, and I have always select store fronts/cars/whatever for numerous iterations. It's never sufficient to just tick the 'i'm not a robot' checkbox.

I'd complain there, but I have to complete a captcha first

Congratulations, you've successfully lowered the code quality of that snippet.

This is actually funny and sad. Don't the MS people realize that the only reason for using "sysinternals" is that their OS doesn't come with decent instrumentation by default? This toolset doesn't even come close to what's natively available in Unix or Linux.

smh

And, as with any such system, they occasionally fail, produce false positives, false negatives, you name it. Yes, that also goes for humans. But I think it's dangerous to make that claim of yours unqualifiedly.

I have never seen, or even heard about, a quartz crystal failing. And given that it's a solid state thing, I can't picture how they could fail in the first place.

So how is MEMS more reliable, especially in the light of this story about them failing en masse?

Third, I wonder if MEMS comes close to the accuracy of a quartz crystal (frequently measured in single digit ppm or even less!)

Just one data point chiming in, I've been running Devuan at home and at work, as well on a few machines that I admin (friends, parents), it's solid.

It's almost as if someone had taken Debian and removed systemd from it, as well as compiling out the systemd dependencies of a few packages. Oh wait.

Unless it features contacts on the outside of the skin, it is a transceiver.

As a German, I don't see how this could possibly work as literally any noun has a(n arbitrary) gender.

Mind sharing where you last heard this?

Isn't all this what the singular 'they' is for?

Care to elaborate?

Yeah and with OLED screens, people will be left wondering why their few-years-old OLED screen looks so bad...
