  • I suppose it is neither a taco or a sand which, however it lives within the sandwich family. What’s weird is if we take the inner radius as it runs towards zero it would look no different to a sandwich (save the weirdly thick bread that looks similar to a burger), but it would be topologically different shape.

    I suppose it depends on if you consider a bagle split more naturally a sandwich or not, and, if so, then it matters if the if the space of the filling being connected matters or not.



  • Now now, saying its useless is a hair strong. It works wonderfully for servers. As a work station it can be a bit of a mess keeping perfect pairity with each new, sprawling branch of tech and standards. Especially when it’s in a blind spot most people find convienent (looking at you webapps).

    It may not work for you, and what’s the harm in having more options for the consumers!

    However, the evangelizing I don’t understand.

    I mean, I can understand the spirit of what they were getting at. It is a bit exhausting that in the tech community gaming comes up all the damn time as a demerit in the MacOS/Linux space (while the later is pretty painless lately) as though its the majority usecase. Heck, many deem Macs as “useless” because they aren’t a target platform for gaming devs.

    Calling gamers “whiny” is a touch harsh. Sure, buying a console makes sense for a good section of consumers. If they plan to buy a device that is only for gaming, is easy to use, and is relatively cheap I could get it. Especially since many game studios seem to focus on optimizing for consoles and don’t fill their titles with weird anti-piracy garbage on them.

    Not a problem. Also FOSS orgs pay their devs as well. Off the top of my head OS developers with a large userbase often pay their devs through donations to foundations that fund the project. Often donors are companies as well, but it gives a developer the option to get paid without working for a massive company.

    (I suppose indirectly they do, but that’s a whole different ball of wax)
