Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Distcc: A fast, free distributed C/C++ compiler

https://github.com/icecc/icecream - another option that does what distcc does, but aimed at a somewhat different use case.
https://ccache.dev/ - a similar idea but provides caching of build outputs instead of distributing builds. You can use it together with distcc to achieve even better performance.

Do you use ccache to speed up compilation times
Of course! The github readme provides a lot of info - https://github.com/icecc/icecream

Ccache – a fast C/C++ compiler cache
If you like distcc, did you ever give icecc a try?
https://github.com/icecc/icecream
I never had the time to set it up properly, but by the looks of it, it should be even better.

Give local devices a way to connect to clients? - openvpn
I would like to have a icecc setup I can vpn into. It seems that with normal configs the clients can talk to the scheduler, but the scheduler cant connect to the clients as it tries to connect to the device running the openvpn server not the one behind it. How could I make my openvpn clients appear almost as physical devices on the network, with unique IP's that local devices can connect to; or if that is unnecessary how could I solve this?

ccache 4.6 released
Glad to see a new release on this! I've read worrying news about the state of icecc, and the followup uncertain news on sccache, so I hope at least some part of the tooling is in a good shape.

Best way to manage dependencies with c++?
I always wanted to try to use cmake-conan so I could let Conan grab all packages but have a neat cmake script being in charge of what gets built when. Also, this would allow me to easily switch between CMake fetchcontent and Conan packages that may or may not be stashed automatically on a local Artifactory server. Secondly, since now all build requirements are stashed on a server and binary reproducible, you could concider adding icecream and ccache into the mix. (Try running a node one of your buildservers for massive speadups with icecream) This however does require a reproducible build environment (by configure script) which conan again is really good in.

Windows 10 end of life could prompt torrent of e-waste
You can use Rufus: https://rufus.ie/en/
To modify the ISO to turn off hardware check and TPM support for Windows 11 to install it on an unsupported PC.

I know some third-world nations still use DOS and the BORLAND DOS compilers because people donate old computers to their nations.
With the right OS, old computers are still usable. Please don't throw them away, e-cycle them so they get used by poor nations that cannot afford new PCs.

ReactOS Newsletter 103 – Late 2023 News
ReactOS is sometimes very disappointing. Take the issue with toolbar icons, for example. Toolbar icons in at least Office 97, Office 2000 and Visual Basic 6 were affected, as was some game [0]. Microsoft Office is a complex Win32 application, making it a good guinea pig for testing compatibility. And yet, this was fixed a few months ago, and the Office bug was reported in 2016 [1]. The bug with no text wrapping for tray balloons is also an embarrassing thing to have lingering for years (I assume it was like this since the balloons were first implemented in ReactOS).
Does the world really need a buggy Windows Server 2003 reimplementation? I think the efforts of the development team could be better spent elsewhere.

Windows 9x and Word 9x at 800x600 resolution. Spacious. Comfy
> It's whitespace. There's wayyyy too much god damn whitespace in modern UIs, and it's awful.
I wanted to see how LibreOffice would compare on my netbook, and frankly it's better than the new Word, but still "worse" than the old version: https://i.imgur.com/cWGYh3M.png
That said, at least LibreOffice lets you have your custom themes and actually offers a variety of different interface layouts, which I think is a nice touch: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Videos/User_interface
> Windows 7 with the Classic theme (which really was just a slight evolution over Win2K) was peak UI/UX, and you'll never change my mind. It's been downhill ever since, getting worse and worse with each generation.
To be honest, I'm inclined to agree with this. That's also why I rather enjoyed the Redmond theme even in *nix distros. There's just something so very usable about the old Windows look and more modern attempts, such as SerenityOS https://serenityos.org/ and even ReactOS https://reactos.org/
