fight me
(lemmy.world)
After working with linux drivers for far too long, I’ve developed some strong opinions on the so-called “APIs” they implement.
yeah because windows is a shining example of a great api
Some super old version of GIMP will run on both XP and Win11.
I had to modify and recompile my laptop's Broadcom WLAN driver for it to run on the latest kernel.
Fight me 🤪
And how many super old drivers run on both XP and Win11?
None beyond basic drivers tbh, it was a tongue-in-cheek joke just to have some fun.
I thought the big flaw in my argument (comparing the Linux kernel ABI to the Win32 API) was obvious ☹️
