What a typical Linux user mindset! That IS one of the largest issues for non-Linux users. Linux is by large margin a niche OS in desktop market share. So it is no issue if all programs are developed only for Windows and/or Macintosh. Right?


...what would wayland on windows even do ? Windows already does what wayland does, it would be entirely unnecesary layer


And windows / mac are now minor players compared to android / IOS, and everything is a minor players vs web pages.


I admit that appealing to capitalism isn't likely to advance the Unix desktop but the "we're all in this together" excessive portability attitude didn't produce good software either.


It is not a form factor everyone takes everywhere. Webtoon can be read comfortably anywhere anytime with mobile phone pretty much everyone has in the hand or in the pocket. That is huger difference.


I think in Japan most manga is still read on paper


AFAIK, China has record for temperature and duration however it is known as China heated up electron rather than heating up ion which is more proper.


I hadn't realized that was a different kind of record (150M degrees for over 1000 seconds). I suppose the ions have more mass than the electrons so that temperature is harder to maintain, but I have no idea about the physics of having them not heat up at the same rate.

BTW I had to vouch for your comment to reply because you have a history of making short and sometimes brusque comments and HN has punished you for it. If you would make slightly longer comments in the future more people will engage with you and it will be more fun for you.


I came to say the same thing. wondering how he counted it as six.


People got to consider at least two following points:

- Chosun Ilbo is news media that is right-wing and always produce news articles (even fake news) that against left-wing parties inc. current government. Many Koreans do not trust Chosun Ilbo. I have no idea why Chosun Ilbo was even interviewed. - South Korea has even poorer than any other countries only 50-60 years ago. There was pretty much nothing to feed on back then after the Korean War which was happened after Japanese horrible invasion was just over. This is different situation than any European countries.


Didn’t a lot of European countries have hunger issues after world war 2? Certainly Germany. There’s only 5 years between the end of world war 2 and the beginning of the Korean War


corrections:

다박솔초소의 설경 - snowy scene of guard post Dabaksol

장자강 - river(강) Changja [Zhangjiagang spelling looks very Chinese-y]

백두산 천지 - the crater lake on top of the mountain baekdu is called that


Thank you for the corrections, I've edited the parent post. The lake on top of the Baekdu (Paektu?) Mountain appears to be called Heaven Lake: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heaven_Lake

(Not sure why your comment was downvoted but I vouched for it, so it's back now, hopefully for good.)
