  • I support the antix project for sure, but non-systemd can be a lil tough. Not that other init systems are inherently more difficult, just systemd is far more standardized/widely used and that helps with troubleshooting.

    In general, following as many standards and defaults as you can is helpful when learning. Debian, Ubuntu LTS, RHEL, SUSE, and anything most things derivative of them. All get a person used to a certain set of commands and software, all have sane defaults, and all are stable.

  • Im 25, but probably an even 30.

    Lot of older folks will not hang with people under 30. They still see them as kids. I'd like to avoid that social issue if I'm gonna permanently be an age forever.

  • Yep. Tenacity all the way!

  • I try my best not to talk with them. End up talking with them more than I'd like.

  • There is certainly something to be said about people asking for someone to fix something rather than fixing it themselves.

    It wasn't exactly hard to just comment on the image what was said. Multiple people pretty much did this.

  • Disengage.

  • "Allow harm"

    Harm was going to happen no matter what you do in the trolley problem. There is no situation where harm does not happen, but there is a situation where you directly are causing harm.

    If you give 100 different variations of the problem, I'll answer 100 different ways, because 100 different questions were asked. Almost none of them actually having a real world application, because there are very few situations in life where a 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, etc option does not exist.

    Personally, if I could go the rest of my life without hearing about the trolley problem that'd be great actually.

  • I don't remember the trolley problem being a question with a right and a wrong answer.

  • Why not? You (usually) just click the check box during install, and you have 1 extra password when you boot up your system. Doesn't seem too hard but I might be missing something.

  • Disagree, lots of people deserve to die like that, and in much more graphic ways.

  • I'll pass on further debate, thank you for understanding! <3

  • I'm gonna be honest, its been so long since I've actually had people to set it up and use it with that even I would need to spend a day and a half figuring out how to set it up again.

  • It seems for the last 5 years or so, Ubuntu has done a good job of making everyone hate them.

  • I less have an issue with people getting trapped in software they understand is insecure, and more with people who will push shit like telegram and pretend its the most private and secure thing ever invented. If they want to use discord, sure, fine with me. As long as they know not to do their activist work on discord I'm fine with it. People doing activist work/planning over telegram will never make me not cringe.

    Signal isn't something I personally want to use, but its tolerable, and it was doing a good job of replacing telegram in activist spaces I felt, but I've recently seen a few different groups using telegram again because they don't trust signal.

    xmpp with omemo is what I wish I could get people to use but uh, well, that just will never happen.

  • I have (for the last 24 hours) heard so many people say linux is dropping 32 bit support.

    Some (most) distros have dropped support for 32 bit, and firefox stopped providing a 32 bit version for linux, but the kernel still very much supports 32bit. I believe there recently were some talks of cutting out some niche functionality for certain 32bit processors, but I've not heard anything about actually gutting 32bit support from the kernel.

    Idk, I'm probably too invested in this. Internets got me going nuts. I should prolly touch grass.

  • God, is it really that bad these days?

    I should start posting screenshots of unreal engine games @640x480 70% resolution scale that I've tweaked into ultra potato mode, only to be able to play them at 24fps. 😅 I enjoy them too!

  • Full agreement from me.
