This post is for techies only. Distro lackeys can fuck off.

Google, the TRILLION dollar corp, has a memory allocation function
called "tcmalloc."

How does GNU Libc malloc, maintained by volunteers, perform against
this product of a TRILLION dollar corp? Check it out:

https://github.com/google/tcmalloc/issues/260

Holy godzilla mutherfuckers! Glibc beats tcmalloc in many, many
areas of the benchmark.

This result proves that it's not the MONEY but it's the BRAINS
that count.

GNU/Linux has the brains. The money can't compete.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

You're comparing apples and oranges, a bit, though, because it's
Winblows being Windows, it's not all that. People like the software
available for Windows, but Linux is the better OS to physically
utilize.

Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent. States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.

M$ will always be able to stand on their compilers and the NT OS
itself, but it's autocratic you might say, there are real advantages
to not using their techniques.
