me: hi I'd like to build gettextgnulib: HOW DARE. HOW DARE! HOW DARE! YOU ARE USING NEITHER GCC, NOR CLANG! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARE!Fucking GNU people. Some of us actually *like* Sun Studio, and think it's a nice compiler?

I am so pissed. Python3-cryptography now requires rust, and given how many modules from PyPi need cryptography, that's baiscally killed a large chunk of Python's portability. Sure, I can get Python-3.14 to build on Solaris 11 Express, but if I can't do something as basic as install fucking certbot..... well done, assholes. your rabid obsession with screaming forwards and giving no fucks about legacy compatibility means that my Python install will basically be hard limited because most things it now can't fucking install. fuck you too.

oh no but no fucking alternative architectures exist ever, do they? not anymore, huh? we're all going to ride off into the fucking glorious future of x64 (boring, generic little-endian pc sludge), ARM (boring, generic little-endian overgrown phones), and RISC-V (boring, generic, little-endian mips with a hat on and a research grant)? Nobody ever uses big-endian POWER7, hmm? or SPARC? or PA-RISC? or Alpha? or anything? Nope. nope, it's all macbooks, cloud VPSes, and RPi knockoffs with RV64 processors!

I'm not even mad at the Python-cryptography folks. unpaid maintainers, I get it. but holy shit, yall. am I one of the last to care about things that aren't a macbook or a Linode? I wonder if I am, sometimes

@TheOneDoc and I'm 27. I said in a discord chat that in 20 or 30 years, I might end up being the best Solaris admin, and probably ISV, in the world. not because I'm bryan cantrill level smart, I'm not, but because I might be thje only one left still doing this more than "boot the sun machine, look at how weird CDE is, turn it off"

@TheOneDoc that..... is really really sad. everyone converged on the things that don't require them to think. X64, boring. generic. ARM? same story. the cloud? same story
