Arch is absolutely divine with its documentation. There is a bit of a “you must be this tall to ride” with them though. Like the tiny [

Double snark if you get upset that I didn’t accept it and reach out to find out why.
Sending my work email a calendar invite as the first communication. Just because you want to sell it doesn’t mean I want to buy it. Or even hear about it. If a calendar event is the first thing you send me, I will be the avatar of snark. My calendar is busy enough without you inserting yourself into it without my consent.
Their home/home office stuff is absolutely trash. That much is true.
Much of their small business stuff is on the verge of being ok. Just, expensive for what it is.
Meanwhile at work we have hp enterprise printers that are twelve years old and still working flawlessly.
Because Fedora is open source only to the point of it being pathological. If there isn’t am open source driver most time you’re just boned. Someone new is going to have a tough time with it, and the community is on average a very “lol rtfm” bunch. Not as bad as Arch, but that’s not saying much.
Meanwhile, despite the problems around Ubuntu, Debian communities are much more understanding and helpful. Mint even with old packages is going to be an easier time for a newbie. Certainly a newbie unfamiliar with the way entirely too much of the FOSS community is.
Wet wipes are helpful if you’d rather not.
Shell scripts were a mistake.
I understand 1000% but I’m not sure I agree. With the peevishness of C and latent autism of assembly, something compiled or otherwise binary isn’t always simple and straightforward. Sometimes, you have a task that only needs to be done three times, and just replaying the commands is sufficient.
sh, ash, and bash are all kinda dumb. Absolutely. But there are other shells that are significantly better. csh and zsh are both great. ksh has some history on it but is good too. But “shell scripts” don’t have to be in your shell language. The hashbang line will let you make a command file and so long as you can describe the command line you can get most shells to run it. Be that language line noise perl or python or even go.
It’s fine. I moved to gitlab years ago for 2fa, so while this doesn’t affect me I would be entirely ok with normal 2fa.
It is normal, right? Not a weird Microsoft 2fa requiring their app?

“Monte Carlo code changes. BLAME: notme”
I mean, this isn’t any different for Windows or macos. The difference is the culture around the kernel.
With Linux there are easily orders of magnitude more eyeballs on it than the others combined. And fixes are something anyone with a desire to do so can apply. You don’t have to wait for a fix to be packaged and delivered.
Don’t worry, one day you’ll understand.
I think you’re conflating correctness with comprehension. Even if it isn’t correct, you could still be understood.
Johnny Cash’s cover of Hurt. Trent came off a bit whiny. Cash… it’s his song now.
Yeah, not “incorrect,” just non-standard. The yardstick is: did your interpretation match the intended one? Clearly, he was able to get there so it’s firmly in “acceptable use.” Any further whinging about grammar is likely to just be construed as gatekeeping.
Add a drm module to it too to make sure it’s being built from the right sources and disable the whole thing if it gets a whiff of closed source
There are some, probably. But any exodus will be slow. Xz isn’t useless because it was dangerous once.
This sounds just like something Jia Tan might say…
FOSS needs more people like you. Thanks for your contributions.
