It doesn't feel any worse then any of the other big transitions I remember? Some of the libstdc++ transitions were much more painful than this, and when we moved from XFree86 to X.org I remember I didn't have any working graphics for a few days...
We're a few days in now, and while my daily upgrade is not currently updating massive numbers of packages because of missing reverse dependencies, nothing has broken for me so far...

What's in that bottom bay? My mind says 'zip drive' at first, but that doesn't seem right, and it's also missing a lever so it doesn't look like a 5.25" floppy drive... Or am I wrong?

If the model itself is not free software, it falls the tentacles test. Other than that, sure.

I know the type. Once had something like that described to me as 'a translation from Japanese by a Korean person with questionable English skills who was drunk on the job' and it seemed so accurate.

Well yes. My point is, calling it 'enshittification' somehow does not seem enough.

Perl. And C, sometimes. C++ is just... *shudders* thanks but no thanks.

There million lines of 'switch off this, do that, perform this hack' etc etc etc ad nauseam, followed by
> The settings changes we've recommended here may not fix everything, but they can at least give you some peace, shoving Microsoft into the background and allowing you to do what you want with your PC without a constant hassle.
This is not enshittification, this is criminal.

No, it said macOS, which is what apple operating systems have been called since 2016 😉

ISO does just sell their standards. Everyone has access provided they open their wallet. I did that once for one of the DV standards while I was still maintaining dvswitch, although I don't remember what I paid for it.
For ISO 4210-4:2023, e.g., you can go to https://www.iso.org/standard/78079.html and pay.
Yes, sometimes the price is prohibitively high though, especially if you need the whole standard on something.

The contact details are at the bottom of that first email, but it's video@fosdem.org plus a few other options.
Or you can dm me (does the fediverse support that? Not sure...🤷)

Thanks for calling my code fancy 😉
We can add an apology note if you like. They look like the second slide on https://GitHub.com/FOSDEM/video/issues/233
If you want to go down that route, contact us (contact info in the review invite emails) and we'll get that set up.

Some may say this has already happened. I mean, you get to choose between something superficially resembling a party with reasonable opinions and a bunch of lunatic crazies.

Welcome! Glad to hear the efforts are appreciated 😁
And yes, I had to spend most of today trying to make everything work smoothly... 😳

Situation is somewhat better now, so if you had a talk at FOSDEM a few hours ago, you're very likely to have an email with a review invitation. Speakers, please check!
