Linux fork in the road

Though I may not be a long time contributor of this project, I genuinely would recommend that it would be best to keep "Rust" at a distance and allow people to support it.

The incremental benefits "Rust" offers is not worth the whole overhaul of trying to rewrite programs written in "C" and "C++" which would be better if they were contained and clamped respectively.

There's a lot of code waste that will occur from "Rust" and itll be a grand waste of time much like how seemingly the web developers took a wrong (least productive) route by making "JavaScript" the language of the "World Wide Web".

The "BareMetal OS" project looks like a decent effort at making an exokernel, will be a challenge to do it well. Nonetheless, I shall visit this project more in depth when I can.

The "Kolibrios" project should rename itself to "Pane", perhaps it could replace "Windows" lol because it does look a lot like XP.

IF all changes / bloat (rust) are made mostly in the name of "security" then we are on a wrong path, as we complacently accept "insecurity"/ back-doors default build in hardware (CPU / GPU) and firmware (closed sources) in the name of bullshit intellectual "property".
