And there have been 5 people banned from GitHub due to racist and homophobic slurs, which violates Godot CoC and GH ToS.
I don’t think these users were providing valid criticism. Never mind the fact that GH issues are not really the place to complain about some twitter drama.

Racist and sexist slurs, most likely.
You know, edgy 14 year old kids on xbox

However https://lobste.rs/s/wh6yhk/why_we_run_freebsd_current_at_netflix has some more discussion.

Seems like BSD was the right answer when they started running a CDN. They developed a strong BSD team that contributes to upstream. At this point, retooling to use another OS is probably a massive investment for questionable gain (like, what would the benefits be?!).

Ultimately, they chose BSD, developed BSD, contributed to BSD.
At this point, it’s a custom shoe they have helped design, and it fits like a glove. Or something

pfSense and OPNsense are both BSD, and they are pretty popular routing/firewall systems.
BSD also has jails, which are pretty popular.
Netflix uses FreeBSD for some of their systems.
PS4 was based on FreeBSD.

I don’t think it’s on it’s way out.
It still has a place

Server hardware does.
I think dell Rx30 are only just getting to EOL, and it was released in 2015.

Although, buying an Rx30 before 5 years ago would be in the 10s of thousands.
Refurbished Rx40 and Rx50 are somewhat affordable.

I just want 12 tonnes of strawberry flavoured whipped cream, dude.
That’s why I need such a big bottle of N2O. I’m a culinary genius

You are wrong.
Intel didn’t design them to do that. Design implies intent.
They fucked up, yes. Not providing replacement/refund for damaged chips is horrendous. It will probably end in a settled class action lawsuit where everyone affected get $5, which isn’t a good outcome.

But they didn’t design them to do this.

Win+M minimises everything.
Win+(arrow key) moves windows around.
Win+S for screenshot.
Win+C (with PowerToys) opens a color pipette tool.
Win then type the name of the program or setting brings those results up (well, after windows has a network connection or realises it isn’t gonna get one. Which is stupid)
