He assumed the delay was just waiting for the floppy disk, but on those old machines, "fancy" high-level code actually bogged down the CPU. While a normal program clumsily checks one byte at a time -- wasting effort on every step -- you used a hardware shortcut to verify the whole block in one smooth motion.

Remember about business rule older than our Universe: "Who pay, will also demand.", and: "Who pay, will also decide.". For e.g.: What is the advantage to be Micro$lop customer when they sold piece of crap in the nice cover? The same is true for huge corpos which decide free and open source way of coding. This is the reason why almost all free and open source programs break the great "zero conf" design rule (but note: all banking aps respect this rule). This is the reason why many free and open programs are monoliths and there is no way to extend via simple plugins (note: KDE Krusader). This is the reason why huge corpos hide plugin doc for rare modular programs they created (note: KDE Develop, Qt Creator, Visual Studio). This is the reason why they create monoliths programs with code unable to reuse in spite lack of the alternatives (note: KDE Okular and its unique PDF and ebook rendering engine embedded directly in to main program code, instead be set of reusable shared libraries. PDF and ebook rendering libs are largely needed for many business and private projects. KDE Ocular programmers effectively prohibits other free and open source programmers from make many great programs which should render PDF and ebook docs easily. This force me to code my own PDF rendering widget). So your above comment is very stupid. And it seems you have no idea about good and bad software, and apparently you have no idea about the free and opens source pathology I mentioned above. The Linux activists from the West should do what I did in Poland: develop free ebook with good design and programming rules, like my free (as free beer) PDF: <https://energokod.pl/monografie/Arch.%20Prog.%20Nieuprzywilejowanych.pdf> and you should investigate how free and open source projects respect them, and you should raise public discussion about the pathology like above. After my investigation I know well, that current free and open soft suffer in many ways instead be "art of code" - currently it is coded exactly in opposite way, only slightly better than Micro$lop Winblows. And tell me why Micro$lop donate in to free and open source world? I know: they want turn Linux in to Winblows like piece of crap. If Linux Foundation likes blood money form Micro$lop, some day they will be thinking in the same way, and they will be do the same as M$. LF should kick Micro$lop and every corpos associated with it, otherwise they and Linux will be lost quickly. In Polish we know that old rule well, and we have good proverbs: "Kto z kim przystaje takim się staje." sense in English: "You will be the same as persons in your area.". "Kto trafi między wrony musi krakać jak i one." sense in English: "If you are between crows then you must behave like that crows.". -- Have a nice day! Jacek Marcin Jaworski, Pruszcz Gd., woj.

What is this “great "zero conf" design rule”?

It’s a KDE app. It has inherent expandability via the KDE framework and
“KParts”, just for example. From the home page <https://krusader.org/>:
It supports a wide variety of archive formats and can handle other
KIO slaves such as smb or fish. It is (almost) completely
customizable, very user friendly, fast and looks great on your
desktop!
> So your above comment is very stupid.
I would say you are just ignorant. If you remain ignorant after being
informed, then the ignorance becomes wilful ... and then you become
stupid.

Information courtesy of chatgpt: 💡 1. Donations via the Linux Foundation The Linux Foundation is the primary steward of the Linux kernel and related open source infrastructure. It is a nonprofit organization that: * Hosts the Linux Kernel Project * Employs some kernel maintainers and developers * Manages financial and organizational support The Linux Foundation accepts corporate and individual donations, but most of its funding comes from corporate memberships, not small-scale donations. Examples of corporate members: * Google * Intel * IBM (via Red Hat) * Microsoft * Meta * AMD * Oracle These companies donate millions of dollars annually through membership fees because they depend heavily on Linux. 👉 You can also donate individually here: 🔗 https://www.linuxfoundation.org/about/donate 💡 2. Direct Sponsorship of Kernel Developers Many top Linux kernel developers are employed full-time by major tech companies to work on the kernel. For example: * Greg Kroah-Hartman (stable kernel maintainer) — formerly with SUSE, now at the Linux Foundation * Linus Torvalds — directly employed by the Linux Foundation So in a sense, the Linux kernel project is "donated to" by companies paying these developers' salaries. 💡 3. Other Funding Models There are also: * Bug bounty programs (like from Google or others offering rewards for kernel vulnerabilities) * Grants or academic support for kernel-related research * Some developers also use GitHub Sponsors, Patreon, or similar platforms to receive direct financial support > LibreOffice is, by default, placing such a message, in the manner > of Micro$hit Winblows, into the face of every user at startup. > > Users already know that they can contribute to the projects of their > choice.

I do not see any banner. If I open lowrite or localc I see nothing but the program. If I open the launcher then I see a button at the bottom left that says "donate". Small and polite. I am tempted to donate, as a matter of fact. -- Cheers, Carlos. ES🇪🇸, EU🇪🇺;

In fact some claim his writing from his mom basement, I'm pretty sure he's writing from an asylum. In any case, he's living in the past: there is no doubt about that. > Individual programmers start free and open software > movement, Yes. > but now it is pure controlled by huge corpos. It's a little bit more complicated than that. The huge corpos chose which part of the code they contribute. They don't stop others for contributing other part of the code. Which is understandable. You want to play games? Good for you, but they don't. So they won't contribute to parts of the code that help you play game. If your needs are the same as the big corpos needs, so everything will be OK for you. If you have different needs, then you have to take care of them by yourself. The big corpos don't control the software, they control which parts of the software they chose to contribute. And a good thing about the Linux Foundation is that, unlike the WHO, the big corpos are limited in the amount of money they can send. So, there is no risk that someone like Bill GATES or Donald TRUMP menace to stop funding them if they don't do as requested. Well they can menace, but it won't be that much an impact to be like an order to comply or to die. -- Si vous avez du temps à perdre : https://scarpet42.gitlab.io

If this >> donation bullshit continues I just may move to alternatives. Another great message proving, once again if that was still needed, that you are as far as modern programming as what can be expected. First, as you said previously: you have no right to complain. But that's not the point. The point is: a program as well spread as LibreOffice doesn't consist only a bout programming. For a start, you have to host it. And as millions of people will download it on a regular base, nobody can host it at home. It was possible decades ago, not anymore. So, now, people are using things you despise because you can't understand their purpose: Virtual Machines available in data centers. And hosting it is expensive. So why an amateur who accept to contribute for free should pay for you to be able to access it? Why shouldn't you contribute to the costs of what you are using? Are you only a parasite? Well, for my last question, I have already my answer: it was a rhetorical question. -- Si vous avez du temps à perdre : https://scarpet42.gitlab.io

Once you grow up, idealism goes out the window and reality sets in. So working for free no longer seems like such a cool idea. > I contribute to FOSS both through programming and other means > and I NEVER expect any compensation, monetary or otherwise. Sure you do. You couldn't write "Hello World" in interpreted BASIC. > I truly appreciate LO but I also do not NEED LO. If this > donation bullshit continues I just may move to alternatives. I'm sure everyone at LO is crushed to read that. > It reminds me of YouTube which once was a vibrant community > for sharing video information but now it has degenerated > into a click-baiting money grab where the majority of posted > material is garbage. Yeah man. How DARE they charge for hosting every video ever made. You are such a babbling twit. When ARE you going to grow up?

You really are a dumbass. LO gets monetary contributions, voluntarily, as do other FOSS apps. Your obsessiveness isn't going to determine what they do, anymore than your idiocy preaching using Gentoo/LFS for a driver device is going to convince people. It's not sensible. It's not normal. You can do whatever you want in your own house, with your computers, but some of us just want to enjoy using the damn device, without the fetishistic obsession you have. -- Joel W. Crump
