Maybe because it is not in realm of possible instead of something they don’t want?

Play some games, contribute to opensource, read academic papers. There are a lot of work to do even if you are not employed.

I bought the GOP? I’ll sell it for arresting or killing Putin.

The bottom two are red belts of their countries. In Russia of 90ies red belt meant pro-communist southern regions.

I would like to use public transit, but when that would turn a 15 minute drive into a 55 minute trip

I wonder whose friend got multimillion contracts for building 6-lane(per direction) “roads”…

This is 15 minutes of work vs 55 minutes of relaxation.

Nah, someone is optimistic about the future of capitalism. Hopefully bunker rat will die or go to prison in next 3-10 years. And his oligarchs too.

You just see what would happen in class. Now imagine having 20 of them.

Man, it seems if Putin dies(or goes to prosin) and Russia will say “free visas and transport to get here”, it will get tons of cheap qualified labour.

Maybe? Didn’t see one here. Or on reddit. I used reddit only few times in my life.

Either you have a really bizarre definition of relaxation

You replied to comment that I made while I was in public transport. If I were driving, I whould not be able to write it.

you’ve never taken public transport in a busy city during peak hours.

Does 17:00-19:00 peak hours count?

I dare you to enjoy the relaxing experience of a bus at peak times in August in a third world country like Russia.

Ok?.. How do you know what I did in August?

I know there is saying that Moscow is not Russia, but I did exactly that. Also during summer most of regular people are on vacations, so there will be more space than during winter.

There IS ‘lockable mode’ since System V era. It is extensively used by package managers and similar stuff.

Deleting file does not actually deletes it from disk until last program closes it. And there are ways to open file such that changes to file will not be seen in program.

There is flock/fcntl for you. But locking is bad for performance too, especially in multithreaded enviroments.

Very true for mainstream distros, but there’s more: Linux updates in the background. No matter how long it takes(if you for example use Gentoo), there is zero downtime. And with kexec your system can be its own bootloader and can do insane stuff like starting new kernel without re-running POST, which is on servers is very important(because they have shitty BIOS that takes ages to boot).

Then there is cooperative locking for you. It becomes a choice.
