I'm getting non-stop Samsung, insurance, food, and other kinds of ads in the middle of shows.
It makes me not want to use Prime. And in fact, I don't anymore.

I have my money on Tesla being the first cloud-connected car (that phrase shouldn't exist) to be hacked and push a malicious firmware that will cause all cars to simultaneously activate self driving and to pull a hard left at a specific time (time bomb).
The only thing of value at IBM now is Redhat. And there are a lot of people who aren't happy with some of the decisions they made with Redhat.
Thank goodness they cleared out all that snow and ice so that we can finally see the pretty mountains.
He just mentioned it as an example of a kernel written in Rust. The interviewer asked if Rust isn't accepted into the Linux kernel, would someone go out and build their own in Rust, and Linus mentioned Redox saying that's already happened.
Couldn't even use a 16 Pro?

I think Linus mentioned Redox directly during the interview
What's wrong with his wrist?
Long time "old-school" kernel maintainers don't know Rust and don't want to learn Rust (completely fair and reasonable). But some of them don't want to work with the Rust guys for lots'o'technical reasons.
It's by far not an easy situation technically. Like this is a huge challenge.
But some of those old-school C guys are being vocal about their dislike of Rust in the kernel and gatekeeping the process. This came to a head at a recent conference (Linux Plumbers Conference?) and now one of the Rust maintainers has quit.
The big technical challenge is being confounded by professional opinions.
I'm sure we all know about the low audience scores given to The Acolyte. Rotten Tomatoes was sitting down at 14% since around the third episode, and was that low up until at least the last episode. Now that it's nearly a week out from the season finale, I figured I'd take another look.
The Rotten Tomatoes score has gone up to 17% and other review platforms have gone up a bit also.
So I decided to read through a few of the recent ones. Here are two examples:
The showrunners accuse fans of "review bombing" but are apparently just fine with artificial review boosting. I saw a bunch of these double reviews and nearly every single one talked about things like diversity, a "fresh take", production values, etc, all in that typical bland corporate-speech type of language.
Whereas the negative reviews are detailed and specific without ever getting into racism, bigotry, sexism, or other things fans are often accused of. If you read through the negative reviews they are often well thought out criticisms of the story itself and the quality of acting.
I just wanted to bring this fake review boosting to the community's attention. If you enjoyed the show, that's awesome. But it's dishonest to dilute honest and fair criticisms of a show.

This keeps getting said by people who don't understand operating systems. Even if you build something from the ground up, you still end up with an operating system very much like Linux and Windows. The choices that were made for each OS were not random. The principles of I/O, user input, graphics display, filesystems, etc, are more or less universal concepts across all OSes.
What you will accomplish is making an OS that no one will use. Linux, Windows, and macOS already fill every market that can be filled. Microsoft tried to become a third player in the mobile market and their product died pretty quickly.
Google has been trying to build Fuschia into a new OS and they've asked back their ambitions (from what I recall reading).
