WSL2 is better. I'll take correctness over a slight loss in performance. Also Linux is very fast. So it's not like there is a huge performance loss in most cases, I am guessing.

It is an improvement. Having documentation include with source code means that they can updated together and is less likely to be out of date. Provided, of course, they don't use the github wiki stuff or use separate repos for documen

Yeah, but that defeats the purpose of creating the state in the first place. The entire point is being able to tell people what to do for your own profit. It's a lot easier if you pretend you are doing it for the subject's benefit

If you are buying a Cisco router you are buying a closed source product. Why would you expect them to open source anything when you are happy to give them money for closed source firmware? You are literally paying them for being closed sou

It's normal in any open source project to keep security mailing lists and things of that nature private. And for good reasons. One of the reasons is they are dealing with security related bug reports. Public disclosure before having a

Sounds more like these companies are using bounty programs to get researchers to sign NDAs so that they can control public perception of their products. Effectively paying people (and heaping ego gratification on top of that) to be silent a

I don't know how much it matters, either. Nor why I should care that much. Pine64 wants to ship working products. It can't do that if it wants to support 30 different Linux distributions or phone products simultaneously. Most of

The OP is right. If you are off-grid and adapt everything to using solar and battery then you can get "free operating cost" with enormous costs and loss of reliability. However if you are grid-tied then the power company is going
