So so true. A perfect example is anything on any page of man other than 1 may as well not exist.

Yessss this program is amazing. One of the few things I’ve donated to.

Not to mention your sexuality!! Hey everyone! We got an ace-phobe over here!

I literally can’t install Windows 11 on my current computer lol. I know there are workarounds for it but I don’t feel comfortable doing that for my primary computer.

I someday hope to meet myself again.

I think they’re tongue in cheek.

We’re not friends? 🥺

Wahhhhh this tool can’t do two things well, it should only be doing one thing well! 😭😭😭

Or as I’ve started to call it, GNU minus Linix

That’s the joke.

That’s the joke.

I feel like this incident is over blown. The weird holding back for 2 weeks without testing is a valid complaint though.

Oh, I thought it was because zsh is better.

The company that laid me off let me keep my Mac which was a nice parting gift. I don’t think I’d ever buy one myself. They’re just way to expensive.

If openSUSE Slowroll wasn’t experimental I’d recommend it in place of Manjaro. It’s a rolling release with monthly releases.

I’m not doing that unless it has its own compiler.

They lost so much trust when they did that, truly an insane, shortsighted decision.

This is a flawed opinion. You can support a realistic approach of using proprietary software for usability’s sake without approving of things like ad profiles. (I say that instead of telemetry because benign things like crash reporting or reporting which features you use are technically also “telemetry”.)

Listen, I support foss as much as anyone here but there’s a reason SSPL didn’t get accepted as a foss license, and it’s because it’s impossible to have a fully 100% foss system. I’m not saying we shouldn’t push for or advocate for that, just saying we shouldn’t say someone isn’t fully embracing Linux just because they need to use a few pieces of proprietary software to get a working system that supports their individual needs.

I love love love that Fossil is a single executable.

All in all, the version control wars have ended and git has won. Mercurial is another one I sort of wanna try just to see what it’s like.

Re: rebasing, I think squashing / rebasing (in place of merging) is bad but I am also one of the few people I know who tries to make a good history with good commit messages prior to opening a pull request by using interactive rebasing. (This topic is confusing to talk about because I have to say “I don’t rebase, instead o rebase” which can be confusing.)
