They went full malware.

I don’t think anyone “hates” him. He’s just an absurd human that no one takes seriously. And we all agree we have much more dire things to discuss than what rich white people are calling managers about now.

That guy sounds like the dude that “works” at my house too.

You know I didn’t realize until now there was actually “confusion”. I just thought I was a dolt for forgetting the package name or confusing the command name. Heh!

😀

Absolutely! When I was 20ish and new, yeah. But it hit me about 3years ago thats ALL I do professionally is automate as much as I can to make life easier for users and companies. Why am I not doing that for me?

On a side note, I’m seriously loving the immutable distributions. I’m thinking that’s my new direction.

Sorry to rattle on lol

😀 I sure sound like it. Debian these days though. I’m too lazy for Arch anymore.

It was too far from the metal for me. But it is a great distribution. Especially if you’re looking for fancy pants gaming ability or just turn-key ready to roll MS alternative.

Don’t worry the people performing the preservation don’t know much about it either.

I freaking love that! And I have a feeling conversations like that happen pretty often, and I have to know if they are documented now!

Absolutely! The mentality that it’s “wasted time and resources” is exactly how you extinguish progress, invention, and ultimately the ability to innovate existing tools.

That’s a very poor understanding of how laws and regulations are ratified and passed into law. A consumer org can’t just say “hey, don’t do this!” and they just have to stop.

Well, to be fair, it’s an AMAZING manual.

I left about 1.5 years ago. All of the major socials that is. And honestly, in places like this, it felt kinda “empty”. So I’d peek in every once in a while just to see if I could figure out what it is. And it’s all the obviously controlled noise that is attached to every aspect of me using the service(s). Location, device type, browser type, personal demographics, political stuff etc. I deleted everything shortly after that.

It was the noise I was missing. Just the garbage and the noise. I don’t think you can fully appreciate how prevalent it is until you don’t have it occupying so much personal real-estate. (time/space/attention)

Wow, so this is what it looks like when a country decides to stand up for it’s people and protects our privacy. Neat.

correct way to install is flatpak most of the time

It’s probably SUPER intimidating how many options there are for something as simple as “package management”. Who to trust. etc. People are just rough, and unkind. Stick with what works for you. What your’e comfortable with. That’s honestly the ONLY important aspect of this whole Linux endeavor. Complete control of YOUR computing experience. That gets lost in opinion and subjective conjecture more often than I can stand, honestly. It really is SO much saner on Arch, though. You’re absolutely correct. That’s why I stick with it myself. It gets out of my way and lets me do what I want to do.
