I don't know why this reads so skeptical:

"The team has been setting the groundwork for new components/drivers to be written in Rust but as these are developed, we're running into some roadblocks," he told us. "[Linux creator Linus] Torvalds doesn't seem to care, or perhaps believes they are appropriate. Time will tell."

Some days ago what I read was this:

Switching to a more modern topic, the introduction of the Rust language into Linux, Torvalds is disappointed that its adoption isn't going faster. "I was expecting updates to be faster, but part of the problem is that old-time kernel developers are used to C and don't know Rust. They're not exactly excited about having to learn a new language that is, in some respects, very different. So there's been some pushback on Rust."

I take it as people just joking. Personally I'm in doubt if the tweet is serious and the new book is true, or is it just a joke about refactoring/re-writing code.

One thing that I get with Firefox is that usually by opening a link in background when switching I appear as logged out until I try several ways of refreshing.

Some days ago I was logged out for real, but that it is not so common for me.

At this point it is about malicious compliance. Oops I can't have windows anymore.

After all, that's why git is there, to help me remember the shit I put all over the place. (Ok, it might have some other uses.)

Nice to find real use examples.

The other day I was having a bad day and had a call from an unknown number, so I decided to pick up but let them talk first. They just hang up and have not called again.

I don't think it was a good idea to pick up in the first place, but it was curious in the end.

Sometimes I wait to enter the bios so I can press the power off button while there.

I love how compact it is. Over time I have heard so many names, but having something put them in relation to each other is going to help a lot.

Do you happen to know if KDE is already available there?

That is going to need a disable option for me :-S

But you'll at least let us take a smaller or bigger peek right? Don't worry we have a screen recorder ready, you don't have to do anything.
