On reddit a few days ago on r/archlinux there was a discussion about ricing being a racist term or not.

I hope you are kidding, trolling, as those things, plus audio/video editing, started fron unix when it wasn’t conceivable to do so on PCs with proprietary OS. All those corporations who later sold such sw copied/stole FOSS and dressed it up as their own.
No team or corporation can ever ever catch up to FOSS development. It is a neo-liberal fallacy that promotes them on marketing hype.
01·8 months agoTry antiX, void lxde, obarun jwm, see the difference.
I never use one, useless fluff/hype, I use a wm.
Near double the size and resources for having a dock/bar/menu and pinning icons on the background … too much clutter for things hiding behind whatever you are doing most of the time.
A desktop is something you use to impress someone using mac/msWin …
Many people browse 4-5 pages a day, see a few emails, print a few pdfs, and a core2duo, or x4, for 40#/$/Eu a box run flawlessly with linux and xfce/lxde for example.
Even video-conferencing works fine.Why not?
Any kid? Do I have to prove age? I’ll install for a 1kg of basmati, or 3kg of potatos, 2kg of beans, 5kg of onions, or anything similar.
In my mariner background they say “it is not the size of the boat but the way it cuts through the water”
systemd doesn’t like booting with ro, too dumb to check then mount filesystems.
1 Did you boot the live medium with bios or efi?
2 Do you have libnvme and nvme-cli installed? If no, try them, if yes look up things on the manuals. It may be that your bootloader can’t read/mount from the nvme
3 Ever since systemd-boot appeared things have been not working so well, now, have they?
I can make my openbox look like i3 with ceramic tiles all over :)
They are all decorative flavors of the same system, IBM’s systemd “Inside”.
I like the idea behind arch and pacman, but I’m trying to stay clear of large corporate dominating systems (systemd, qt, zstd, etc.) I try to use as many alternatives as I can, keep the unix ideals up, small, specific, contained, doing one thing only instead of being system layers trying to contol everything. ProChoice :)
For a long time debian, but after wheezy I turned sour and started hopping. Devuan, antiX, artix, void, obarun, joborun. Devuan turned nasty untrustworthy soon, antiX is still my favorite debian, artix appeared faking the init-war, void took a downturn adopting elogind, so for the past 6y obarun, joborun in the past 1.5, and antiX on the side keeping up with development and runit adaptation.
Everything that is not personal is political
and you saw how linux looks or how debian will look two years from now?
On magnetic disk there is physical location for each bit of data written, for ssd it is all virtual space handled by internal software simulating a magnetic drive. The variation from disk to disk is much higher than the sensitivity of the fs.
You want accuracy and reliability of data storage, use HDD and Raid!
A file system and a raid setup all in one with facebook’s code for de-/compression … yet another piece of software that tries to do the work for several others.
ext4 will rarely have extreme loads unless all you do is backup and mirroring. For more accurate data read/write and better checks use xfs and external journaling. On M2 it is by far the fastest solution and far more secure than ext.
How can a system that wasn’t broken, without any changes/updates/upgrades ever break?
Its browser maybe will not be able to display some webpages correctly.
This myth/fear that arch breaks is based on ignorance and people who don’t read output during an upgrade, it otherwise never happens.
AMD gpu vs Nvidia … 1-0
Intel gpu boots without linux-firmware pkgs.
Nvidia, old and new, you get what you deserve.
