Politics of equality

Block neo-nazi blue-yellow flag covers

Vanguard revolutionaries are closet authoritarians capitalist reformers

linux with runit or s6 and no-systemd minimalism

I fix old machines, from PCs to flat heads and pushrods

EVs are the number 1 threat to the environment, unrecyclable toxic waste with a 5y life expectancy

  • When I had an /efi mount just as arch said on wiki I didn't have problems. /boot stayed with root system, so it can be booted with efi or mbr.

    If you have 2+ disks and one has mbr the other is gpt you can boot from either bootloader.

    You should also try limine, less headaches than grub.

  • 1 are you using systemd-boot?

    2 is your efi mounted as efi or boot?

    3 depending on 2, manually unmount efi and see what you have on boot, maybe you have grub.cfg in 2 places.

  • If you could tell the difference between hate and criticism you wouldn't wonder.

    A fan? I wasn't a fan of debian 7, I just thought 8 was garbage and left when 7 could no longer upgrade.

  • More mythology, ubuntu is just a layer of fluff over debian. Ubuntu wouldn't exist if it wasn't for debian. Just check your repositories. It is a fake distribution without character, mixing Free and non-free software from anywhere they can find them and promotes installing "foreign" pkgs to the system just to show they provide a wider variety.

  • You are reproducing a myth started from Arch to keep newbs and those with learning disabilities out of the way. The 2nd largest distribution after debian didn't survive this long if this myth had any truth to it.

  • Many of my graphic applications spit out warnings on terminal about dbus not responding, because it never runs, neither do logind, but everything works for me. I don't pay attention!

  • Your recommendations for (Wayland) tiling window managers? Need some guidance before getting started

    Jump

  • labwc is amazing too, try it.The only thing I haven't figured out is how to run a graphic application as one user from another.In X you simply do

    sudo -u user2 firefoxas user1, in wayland you can't, even if a seatd is running for that other user as well.

  • If it was done online alone 1st it would have been cracked globally, then the machine/hw needs to be identified uniquely. How can this be done if you change disk and reinstall?

    The way they do this is a chip intel/amdx86-64 boards provide called MSDM and a unique key is embeded to it.You plug a new disk, install, reboot is is already activated.

  • I was reading what it would take to run a legal copy of w10/11 in a vm since the vm doesn't provide the chip to embed the license (post 5th gen intel and similar amd) and I almost threw up with MS disgusting policies of trying to sell more and more for every use.

    If your mb gets fried you have to call up and authorize the transfer of license ...

    You can't buy a $50 refurbished with sticker and get a free license for w11 :)

  • Some people have spare time to learn a thing or two, some people have spare cash to buy new hw when MS tells them to.

    We are not all equal :)We have a government that enforces and maintains inequality, otherwise equalization would come natural, and with some social organization.

  • Linux kernels are YEARS ahead of anything MS or Mac can handle.

    It just takes a little learning and patience to deal with a system that belongs in the future.

    Linux users complain about the kernel being so advanced and big covering industrial hw and hw not yet released in the market.

  • I would advise #linux over anything proprietary to begin with.

    If you want to really go the w11 way it is not as restrictive as they make it sound, in fact in 90% of the cases it says it can't it can.

    8GB of ram and GPT partitioning!

    Many w10 were upgraded from w7-8-9 and retained the DOS/mbr and w10 would work with either part.table. Win-setup says it can't auto-upgrade but it can install if you delete the partitions and start with clean disk.

  • I hope you mean touchpad by touch, it has nothing to do with desktops, it relates xinput libinput synaptics sw common for X and wayland, window managers. If it works it does so before desktop layer is drawn, in some cases it can work on console as well with the right sw.

  • What are your thoughts on a possible NixOS without systemd?

    Jump

  • s6/66 simplifies dependency of running/starting, automatically enables an s6-log for each service/daemon/bundle it is much faster and smaller than systemd (by a factor of 10 maybe), and once it is up and running it is virtually impossible to bring down without its own routine. Servers have run consistenly for a decade with s6, including skarnet.org
