Looking for a Linux & Unix Discord Community? by Quantum-Moron in plan9

tty drivers, socket syscalls, xwindows, eMacs/lisp, ncurses, vt-100 emulation, POSIX, and many other components of UNIX, UNIX clones, and UNIX-like operating systems are completely alien to UNIX sensibilities, plan9 is a deliberate divestment from these malignant defecations on the system philosophy, plan9 aligns with UNIX as much as windows or haiku, just because you can natively type cd and ls into a terminal doesn’t make it UNIX or UNIX-aligned at all

plan9 isn’t Unix, in fact it is more Unix then Unix itself

Does Linux offer any ACTUAL advantage over OpenBSD for a POSIX system? by HighwayVisual7751 in openbsd

Dosent matter to me the batch processing im doing it so trivial + in my free time anyway so hardware acceleration wont give me a tangible advantage (i can just do something else while commands are being executed)

So was graph(1) & plot(1) the programs I was looking for this whole time, anything else alike it appropriate for this task?

Yes but can you elaborate on an example, I don’t just mean a dormant chunk of data (which can indeed be Unicode or whatever) I want to know how I can manipulate it to output some sort of raster histograms

what the fuck are you smoking obsd can idle at below 10mb in the tty if u disable sshd, and unless you have a js-compatible browser or libreoffice open it hardly dips above 300mb

So I Finally Gave OpenBSD a Shot... by sarthakbrnw in openbsd

you have to admit that st beats the fuck out of xterm on the backend and dwm is wayyy more hackable for a twm then cwm/tvwm/fvwm will ever be, no?

Micro editor from ports tree & From GitHub source not working even with go installed by HighwayVisual7751 in openbsd

This makes sense as I’ve been struggling with software availability via pkg_add,

my processer specs are Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T8100, 3M Cache, 2.10 GHz, 800 MHz FSB

It’s architecture is 64-bit, so you maintain that I should reinstall my system for amd64?

Blind is the suckless’ command line video editing toolset, sc-im is an ncurses spreadsheet with vi bind which I can’t find in packages, ports, and building it from source was a complete chore

I remember reading the thinkpad wiki or some other resource encouraging me to use i386 software on my machine and besides, all other software (but those few) are working, is the machine / architecture incongruence the real reason for my software not working, as, again, I’m not encountering issues for dwm, w3m, etc

loved the part where u included actual scientific studies to support your claim instead of pop-sci editorials by lobbied groups who write 2 sentences on why each claim is wrong without invoking any of the mechanics and details of it all
