Using Python to print 2/3 in Microsoft Excel, clearly the mark of the beast.

Councillor Hamann, the National Electric Code stipulates that all electrical circuits must have an overcurrent protection device to prevent fires, so please go find the electrical breaker box and flip the circuit breaker switch off...
It would also be nice to have A/UX, Apple System 8, and NeXTSTEP source code, basically everything that led up to the creation of Mac OS X 10, and I think it's definitely about time they port MacOS GUI environment to the Linux kernel... well, at least they better do it before Microsoft beats them to the punch with Windows for Linux 3.11
On its face, these anti-AI policies are clearly going to adversely discriminate against protected groups, disabled persons are expressly allowed the use of a computer under the ADA as a reasonable accommodation, end of story.
The American's with Disabilities Act is extremely clear that disabled persons have a right to use accessibility aides, augmentative aides, and auxiliary aides to enable them to participate in society. On it's face, this fundamentally violates my rights, as I would never be able to participate in society without the assistance of a computer.
If this is the logic you're going to use then why tax individual citizens at all, just shift the entire tax burden onto for-profit businesses.
This is great news, because now at this point nothing at all can be copyrighted as everything is a derivative of ether myself or AI, I own the copyright for the human genome in source code form, as my birthday is January 2nd, 1979, this is the first day that automatic protection kicks in under the Berne Convention, and I have license this source code under the Apache License 2.0, which also expressly includes a patient license as well. The link below is the source code repository.

Remember SGI Raster Terminals? https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
Here is a video tutorial on DEC's Sixel standard, from 1988, for use with the VT220: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

The last thing we need is another Lennart Poettering trying to reinvent the wheel.
1. Because they have to work over a TTY interface, people who can't hear still use serial based TTY terminals to this very day. In infrastructure management we still use literal serial terminals to manage and access pre-boot environments. Servers boot up using serial console redirection.
2. They are very well established standards that just works, i.g. POSIX, DEC's VT220 with Sixel support[1].
3. It's extremely scriptable and programmable because the domain and range of the functions are very well defined, i.g. ASCII and UTF text and escape codes.
4. Once you've mastered the POSIX userland there just no need to rely on anything else, I can write the equivalent of 100 lines of C code with just a single line of POSIX code in a bash shell.
5. iTerm2 already has most of these bells and whistles, you just have to know the macros and keyboard shortcuts.
6. KISS
POSIX honestly is its own programming language once you have master all of the essential verbs and how to correctly setup your tasks for stream processing using shell scripting. I can tell the machine explicitly what I want it to do for me on my behalf autonomously, so for me personally if I had to go back to pointing and clicking that would be a major regressive step backwards, and at that point I would just use Finder in the GUI. There is AppleScript and Automator as well, all four of these things have their place.
The push should be to drop support for IA-32 altogether, with AMD's x86_64 ISA as the new de facto and de jure standard. It would behove the community to then re-license this legacy GPL code under the more permissive Apache License 2.0 so that the BSD community can be given the opportunity to use it. A monoculture of anything is usually bad.
Joshua, that's fucking hilarious, it looks like pretty soon they're just going to vote you into office. Brilliant mate!
You know the operating system was suppose to be the thing that allowed you to do other things, it was never suppose to be the all consuming destination. Why would you even contemplate installing something so obviously bloated? For Christ's sake, kids these days are using things like javascript and python to do systems programming.
Who gives a shit about spec, Linux is entirely open source and you can flash the EEPROM with anything that will bootstrap the kernel. Do you have any idea what you could do if you didn't have to deal with 50 years of legacy garbage? For instance, imagine if you could bypass the Management Engine and get direct access to the underlying RISC core that's inside every Intel Xeon processor.
