Linus Torvalds
It's irrelevant to Linux, as it's only the kernel, niggerfaggot.
Linux design: standard linux folders
Location of 7zip binary in Windows
C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe
Location of p7zip binary in Linux
/usr/bin/7z
Same number of sub directories from root, but here's the big difference, in Windows 7zip has its own folder with its own libraries and support files. In Linux the same files will be scattered between /usr/lib/, or maybe even /lib/, or hell even /usr/local/lib, and then for support files something hiding in /etc/ or /var/
Tell me that's not UNIX braindamage
Glyphs already have horribly low information density compared to the amount of raw data needed to represent them (128 bits for an 8x16 1bpp character, while actual information is from 7 (ASCII) to 16 (Unicode) bits only), why would you want to waste even more? Names like "dev", "bin", "etc" etc. are obvious to interpret unless you are a brainlet noob who learned about Linux literally yesterday.
Please nigger not even Linux system designers know the difference between /var/ and /etc/ at this point.
The Windows way is also braindamaged.
You have UNIX brain damage.
How would you do it then?
Don't use a hierarchical filesystem.
So go back to using a flat filesystem like classic Mac OS?
Fascinating. So instead of having a global directory structure attached to root it's basically just APIs and services requesting data to eachother making it more dynamic? As someone used to the conventional way of doing things this is hard to contextualize
