hey btw if u follow requested us in the past and we never accepted it it was like mainly a social anxiety thing not rly anything about anyone in particular
account is unlocked now so you can just follow it its fine, a lot of the stuff we'd post in the past that would make us wanna lock our account have kinda moved to other places like DMs / our journals cause its healthier for us than putting it here
hey rust people: what can i do, as a random end user of software that happens to be written in rust (i.e. any linux distribution), to encourage rust to move i586-unknown-linux-gnu to "Tier 2 with Host Tools" so that i can use linux on my computers again
or, alternately, to make the i686-unknown-linux-gnu target not require SSE2 (since i686 never had SSE2...)
alpine linux already uses i586-unknown-linux-musl, which is tier 2 without host tools, for its 32-bit x86 port
debian already patches i686-unknown-linux-gnu to target pentium pro instead of pentium4 as baseline, since otherwise there's abi mismatch and things break
i want to continue running gentoo on my computer, which is a pentium 3 machine, but i can't feasibly do that if i can't have a bootstrap rustc on it
That time I 10x'd a TI-84 emulator's speed by replacing a switch-case

"USB 3.0 — only works with very short cables and depends on the device. This is due to a hardware design issue relating to the coupling capacitors needed for SATA, which shares the same lines as USB 3.0. Hardware design changes have been suggested to engineers, it's in their hands now."

probably doesnt do much on aarch64 but it's about the aesthetic
i have been using a git gui called SmartGit for the past month. free for non-commercial use! I like it, it seems pretty feature complete and does the things i wanted when i started looking for a git gui.
It doesn't have the same visual polish of sublime merge but seems to have more features and doesn't nag me to buy a license. It's also JVM-based so while the official distribution ships with an x86 JVM you could probably get it running on a pi or a pinebookpro with not too much effort. The .desktop file just runs a shell script that builds up the java command and runs it on the bundled java so you could just replace the bundled java with a symlink to your system one I think
