A lot of people like to call C low level, maybe in modern times that's fair? It misses the historical context of why it's not usually considered one though and it's ultimately sort of relative.

But if you read the article even valve said fsync was basically good enough, why go this far if the improvements compared to fsync aren't amazing?

XD, I do, I already build my own kernel and turn it off...just saying I don't like it

I mean...the code isn't copied but the design is and it honestly frustrates me. Like yes Linux performance is improving...but I personally don't like adding kernel functionality specifically for the benefit of wine

I don't think you have to, I believe Google play services has an SMS auto verification thingy that can basically do this for you in the background. Google play services needs SMS access for it but...well it has that on stock roms

Even if it was built in it probably wouldn't get full root, SELinux borks a lot of root exploits even if they privesc correctly.

Weirdly and oppositely this is actually how bees reproduce. Fertilized eggs become female, unfertilized become male

Went and looked it up, Android officially supports Armv7, Armv8, x86, amd64, and riscv64, so it's missing riscv but otherwise mostly correct

I'm not OP but maybe it's not specifically rust that's the problem but the fact that uutils is not actually a fully compatible replacement yet and he just wants gnutils

Rustless, mint? Probably just use LMDE

This is disappointing but I also didn't trust meta enough to believe it in the first place.

SELinux breaks a lot of android root exploits, way back in the day even dirty cow didn't work. It would get you "root" but not actually the full perms because of SELinux. Really good testament to the added security of MAC, it's one of the reasons I run apparmor on my systems
