@aespire Familiar with the basics of it. Too many other things to read. Feel comparatively insulated using a low-target OS like Haiku on ancient silicon. If my hardware ever dies and I’m forced onto 64-bit, maybe I’ll have to take a serious look at ZealOS (TempleOS with networking). · 4 months ago

@istvan That was completely different reason than I thought. I suggest to read Trusting Trust or something like this from Ken Thompson. Wild stuff if you haven't read it yet. · 4 months ago

@aelspire The USA government pushes for everything to be written in Rust. That is as big of a red flag as I can imagine: I don’t think more evidence is required that the NSA has found a way to compromise the compiler. Similar to the reason I use pre-2007 CPUs for my desktop systems. · 4 months ago
