Oddly, in defense of Google keeping Chrome
As much as I’m a fan of breaking up Google, I’m not entirely sure carving Chrome out of Google without a further plan for what happens to the browser is a great idea. I mean, Google is bad, but but things could be so, so much worse. OpenAI would be interested in buying Google’s Chrome if antitrust enforcers are successful in forcing the Alphabet unit to sell the popular web browser as part of a bid to restore competition in search, an OpenAI execu … ⌘ Read more

Fedora change proposal would remove the X11 GNOME session from Fedora 43
I’m sure this won’t make anybody mad, and we can all have a reasonable discussion about this.

Fedora 43 will be released in roughly six months. The reasoning behind the proposal should be no surprise. Thi … ⌘ Read more
TacOS: an x86_64 UNIX-like OS from scratch

It runs both on real hardware (tested on my laptop) and in the Qemu emulator. ↫ TacOS GitHub page TacOS – great name – is written in C, and explicitly a hobby and toy project. The code’s licensed … ⌘ Read more
