the rizzler

this is very true but i gotta defend my object-oriented languages here (real object-oriented, not c+±style object-oriented). there’s a lot of way cooler stuff you can do with ruby or groovy or smalltalk that you just can’t do with rust, for example. objects aren’t special cases, the entire system is supposed to be implementable in itself. obviously the machine code itself can’t be objects but the good languages do their best to mask that.

like i guess but linux has such high enterprise usage already that idk what it brings to the table for the free software people. if they didn’t have their own bespoke DE maybe that, but as far as i can tell the only thing chromeos brings that the enterprise guys don’t is consumer hardware support

idk i’m not here to be a downer but it seems like counting chromeos kind of dilutes the open-source surge part of the headline yk? like obviously it counts as a linux but i wouldn’t call anything google-made libre at the very least.
