It is likely a parody of the fact that the incoming Trump administration has missed a deadline to file an ethics statement. Elizabeth Warren has called them out on it.

Liberal critics are frustrated that Trump got elected and the thing that the Dems are complaining about is that Trump did not file the appropriate paperwork.

Feels very similar to me.

This will all be posted on Info Wars soon.

The funniest thing about The Onion buying Info Wars is that I can see a good chunk of the audience continuing to get their news there and not realizing that anything has changed.

The good thing about leaving things to the last minute is that they only take a minute.

He says “no commercial interest” but honestly I bet there could be. For one thing, there is still an astounding amount of VB6 out there is real use. I know of several US law enforcement agencies with Petabytes of data stored in an evidence management system whose UI and core logic is VB6 for example.

Also, there is really nothing quite like VB6 out there today for rapid prototyping or rapid GUI desktop dev for amateur devs. It is a niche that has never really been filled.

If this can run VB6 apps cross-platform on a modern foundation, that could be huge.

[yes, I realize this is a one man hobby project with no such ambition. I am talking about potential.]

DSL is basically an Antix spin now ( which is itself basically just Debian ).

I had not noticed that KDE is available for Chimera now. Very cool.

WSL isn’t a distro.

I think you mean Azure Linux ( formerly CBL Mariner ):
