Shouldn't it be "further"? farther is for physical distance, further is for figurative/metaphorical distance.

This is the right answer.

He means programming language. Don't use programming languages that are controlled by a single company. Not "don't say CUDA when you mean any general purpose GPU programming language".

Oh my god! The level of denial is unbelievable!

Gene Shift Auto is really nice. Check it out of you haven't already.

Give him some contact info and he probably will :)

Leave him. He spreads the truth.

If you stumble open a problem like that, Windows, even macos, are also that diddly. Even more so, because they are designed to hide the internals from the user. I had to use my old MacBook for something. While sleeping, it wakes up, connects to my bluetooth headphone, I hear "device connected", then disconnects 10 seconds later, "device disconnected", and repeats 20 seconds later. Searched, "how to disable Bluetooth while sleeping".Turns out there is no official way and the answer is competing with Linux shenanigans. Just look at this!

Also it launches Music app whenever I connect my bluetooth headphones. And guess what, it is impossible to disable that behavior. I had to install an app called NoTunes to stop that.

People just accept the quirks of windows and macos. when something similar happens on Linux it proves Linux is unusable by "normal people". But you are also right. Linux is not there yet. I did need to use my old MacBook because something I need to do was impossible on Linux.

Why "no websockets" is good? What's wrong with it?

There were something called "Java applets" on the web before flash. It was real Java, probably a sunset of that. There was an addon just like flash.
