0x4E4F, to asklemmy in Lesbians of lemmy, how do you introduce your SO to other people without getting them confused for just a friend?

Hm… so she calls you her wife as well, correct 🤔?

It’s a meme dude, it’s a play on poster from the early 2000’s about pirating media.

That’s a bad example, because at that point Yugoslavia couldn’t have existed without Tito – he was an extremely authoritarian figure that cracked down on any sort of controversial thought hard.

You obviously never lived in Yugoslavia. I have. It was nothing like that. Western media presented him like every other dictator there is out there, which couldn’t be further from the truth. Benevolent dictator, yes, that one he might have been, but an iron fisted one that went after everyone that so much as whispered something he didn’t like? No, that’s just not true.

Having an intelligent dictator as the unifying force isn’t a particularly good strategy, and Yugoslavia was bound to fail without an authority forcing it to stay together.

That might be true to an extent. Slovenia and Croatia didn’t like the federation, especially Sloveina… and yes, they were kinda forced into the federation after WWII. I would agree that Slovenia might have been better off if she was allowed to leave the federation. She should never have been a part of the federation anyway.

Croatia had a different problem. They wanted to be in the federation, but wanted to lead it. Tito had to balance. He was Croatian, so he had to put the capital in Serbia and pick most of the leading figures from the Serbs.

You have to understand, these regions were always riddled with nationalst wars. This was a chance for everyone to live peacefully, compromises had to be made. And we did live peacefully… up to a point.

Yugoslavia also wasn’t exactly as “communist” as other communist countries, they allowed private ownership of property and business and relied a lot on surrounding capitalist countries to have a decent standard of living and economy.

Yes, Yugoslavia was socialist, and that was also up to an extent (as mentioned, private ownership and other things).

Though, the idea was to be completely autonomous. The relying on capitalist countries part was supposed to be a temporary solution. And things were heading in the right direction (more or less… not saying things couldn’t have been done better), but tides shifted when Tito died and everything started falling appart. I could elaborate in more detail if you’d like, but I feel like it’s enough for this comment.

There isn’t much criticism to be had of layer 4 down, but when they got to layer 5 and 6, they were telecom people sticking their nose in software architecture.

That is true.

But, you have to understand, back when OSI was made, the only thing which could benefit from it was telecom and banking… there were no PCs as we know them today. It’s no surprise that OSI caters mostly to telecom software and needs.

And you could always just use the model up until layer 4, it’s pretty good up until layer 4, and just do whatever you like after that… if you’re developing your own protocol for something that is.

Yeah, that’s what I meant by enterprise use, not IIS. And they’re still dominant on the audio/video production market. Basically, every aspect that is not just your everyday browsing or small office work.

0x4E4F, to linuxmemes in Steve Balmer quotes

Still, everything enterprise related or video/audio revolves around them (and Macs of course). That is one of their biggest assets now, as well as the “a perscription OS” spin they’re trying to pull on Windows. Also, their subscription services, people that do all sorts of businesses use them a lot.

Steve Balmer wasn’t as keen on it…

0x4E4F, to linux in My first year using Linux: My experience

Damn, you’re more persitent than me hagling 😂.

0x4E4F, (edited ) to linux in 13" or smaller Linux laptop - best replacement for aging chromebook?

If you’re hunting down older eqipment (5, 6 years old), no, not really… everything just works with Linux and older stuff. The newer stuff is always the problem with any OS that is not Windows (though that is changing for the better in the last few years, especially for Linux).

0x4E4F, to asklemmy in Unix and Linux System Administration Handbook?

Maybe just the basic GNU tools that come with every dostro, but other than that… yeah, that is ancient.

0x4E4F, to linux in My first year using Linux: My experience

I had to work around it so that it doesn’t send me to (disk? network? not sure anymore) setup again and again.

Never happened to me. How long ago was this?

0x4E4F, to linux in My first year using Linux: My experience

I meant as in a real OS, not a stripped down version meant to run as firmware.

0x4E4F, (edited ) to linux in Help me decide my first distro for Audio.

I thought most of the FOSS ones were like libraries, just drop them in the adequate shared directory and that’s it 🤔. You could check dependencies with ldd and look for the adequate package with xtools.

Plugins as in VSTs?

But also OpenWRT.

Oh, come on 🤦.
