  • My brain did the same. n_n

  • A very sad outcome of very cruel conditioning, being subject to prolongued abuse with no means of escape, so long, that even when there are means of escape, you end up staying, enduring the abuse.

  • They put a box on my head, and sent me to the corner of the room ~ never figured out I'm audhd, never even figured out I'm dyslexic ~ just thought that particular trauma was the right way to educate me, to "prepare" me for "the real world".

    Thanks "school". /s

    Maybe we should keep these kinds of dangerous idiots away from shaping our education systems; away from shaping our children.

    (Actually happen to be wearing my noise cancelling headphones just now as I came across this post. Heh.)

  • I would try to explain to her how foolish she'd been, to make sure she understood what happened, in case having her face eaten wasn't a learning experience enough.

  • Terrifying that the "education" system fails us all this bad. Dangerous idiots abound. That it's only self harm, this time, is no less terrifying.

  • It'd be much better if it were only that bad.

  • And that she'd voted for the snow leopards, or some other participation asking for their presence.

  • Yup.

    Scotland's greens, even when not managing to get into coalition government, hold the other parties to higher standards, managing to affect good change, punching above their weight.

  • Yeah.

    Better vote for evil purple party instead to have them eat your face.

    Much less wasted vote.

    /s

  • We do not know that she didn't vote for the snow leopard.

  • Better do it quick.

    Darwin would be so proud, he'd surely be handing her an award, and soon.

  • Heh, when I saw that reported elsewhere, I thought about posting it here, but it felt too on the nose.

  • If I need something from a different distro there are tools like distrobox.

    Yeah. I've never really bothered with distrobox, having already been using bedrock since 2012.

    Interesting but to much hassle.

    In many ways, bedrock makes things less hassle.

    • It's quite a joy being able to "install" ("fetch") many distros with one command.
    • Easiest way I know to install gentoo. sudo brl fetch gentoo. And can take ones time configuring it, already being in the comfort of whatever other strata already hijacked and fetched. Much less hassle than the rigmarole of a proper stage3 install following the handbook. It's sorta like you get to choose your favourite installer of whichever distro, as a way to install gentoo. (On this computer, for a change I tried MXLinux to hijack, and fetched gentoo (and artix and void). On the computer to my left, I installed AntiX, and fetched gentoo (and artix and void)).
    • If something goes catastrophically wrong with one strata, there are others to fall back on. Very robust. Spares a lot of hassle. Gives a lot of leeway to go meddling with things. :)
    • Various fixed release distros, can be upgraded by fetching (or importing) the new, aside the old, sparing further potential hassles of in-place dist-upgrades, and certainly less hassle than complete make backup, wipe, reboot, reinstall, reboot, restore backup.
    • No need to wrestle packaging difficulties of one distro, when something's available from another, and it all "just works" together with the other distros (like the website gives several examples of).
    • And many more examples.

    But yeah, in some ways it's adding hassles too. Gains and losses.

  • also

    systemd is objectively stable

    more stable than sysvinit (or runit or openrc or other init systems)?

    more usable

    not in my experience.

    easier

    not in my experience.

  • Ah. Heh. Same as gist as my reply to the OP.

    Spent so long reading the other replies about kinds of distros the linux users use, that possibility escaped my attention.

  • I'd not noticed.

    Any especially more buggy than Arch?

    Keeping it upgraded frequently enough?

  • What's ubuntu like with its fixed release schedule for servers? That ever bit you harder than a mild inconvenience?

  • Today might be that day. Give it another go. :)
