    The Register[^]:

    The speedier computing cake is a lie... so we got software bloat instead

    It's almost like software that does more needs more code to do it

    "Debian 12, for comparison, is 1,341,564,204 lines of code." <-- :boggle:

      That's what 20 hobbyists do. One dev would compress that a lot. You get what you pay for, right? If you pay nothing, you get.. Debian.

        I prefer the way: If you pay peanuts, do not complain if all what you get are monkeys :-D

        M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

          Monkeys is the only explanation for both Debian and Windows. And yes, I need to restart now again for another "important" update. I'm not reading why, it is prolly just an important update to MSPaint.exe and Calc.exe.
