laughs in gnu/hurd

PEOPLE! start using entirely freedom distributions of gnu-linux like pureOS or trisquel trisquel is the version of ubuntu without proprietary blurbs.

100% freedom software https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html

DragoraGNU/Linux-Libre, an independent GNU/Linux distribution based on concepts of simplicity.

Dyne:bolic a GNU/Linux distribution with special emphasis on audio and video editing. This is a “static” distro, normally run from a live CD. Since it will not receive security updates, it should be used offline.

guix Guix System, an advanced GNU/Linux distro built on top of GNU Guix (pronounced “geeks”), a purely functional package manager for the GNU system.

Hyperbola Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre, a long-term support simplicity-focused distribution based on Arch GNU/Linux.

Parabola GNU/Linux-libre, a distribution based on Arch that prioritizes simple package and system management.

PureOS, a GNU/Linux distribution based on Debian with a focus on privacy, security, and convenience.

Trisquel, a GNU/Linux distribution based on Ubuntu that’s oriented toward small enterprises, domestic users and educational centers.

Ututo, a GNU/Linux 100% free distribution. It was the first fully free GNU/Linux system recognized by the GNU Project.

this should get you started out nicely it’s a microkernel https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/advantages.html

Sometimes you got to take a leap of faith 🫣🐂🐃🦬 🤣

postscript : the guy who said everything was broken, seemed to just have had a broken filesystem, ironically the advantages of a microkernel like hurd led to him even being able to boot without a kernel panic() 🤯 🤔

is this still a thriving community?

good question! tbh idk.

I wondered about that myself I think at least M1 had an intel alternative not sure about m2 and m3

Oh thanks for that link I will definitely try this one out on my vm!

RSYNC

😭 😭 😭 Blizzard’s down bad

The first hit is always free, then once you are hooked you have to pay. Interesting how gaming-companies have now come to resemble crack-dealers…

I suppose the only thing Lenny can do is advertise and Reddit isn’t good at allowing that so I’ve heard.

If we pay they will put it on the front page 😂

because of all the peons flooding the gates.

All of us started out as 🕊️peons 🌊 flooding gates. 😘 😜

I typed out basically the same comment without having seen yours 👁️👄👁️

mount the backbrush to one of the walls then scrub your back against it like a bear 😁😂

I only use apt, or compile from source but here is what some guy online wrote:

* Creates larger packages from compiling in most/all of the libraries used in development that use up more storage space because you are storing additional copies of libraries already on your system.

* Slower loading because you are loading a separate copy of libraries that may already be loaded and available for use.

* Updates to external libraries that add features, fix bugs, or change functionality are not available to the existing flatpak, which also reduces the testing use base for updates to support libraries.

* Breaks the fundamental concept of *NIX which is to separate out development of different subsystems, meaning that if an external system (library) changes how it does things, your program may no longer work or have features suddenly limited because it is using an older version of the library.

* Depends on the Application Binary Interface (ABI) remaining stable in the Linux kernel, which is preferred but not guaranteed. If an ABI is changed, the flatpak can stop working.

* Can be difficult to adapt to different distributions of Linux. Many Linux distributions have package maintainers that compile programs from source to ensure it works on and is compatible with the particular distribution they are supporting, and flatpaks can struggle to work on a different distribution.

* Sometimes avoids the work necessary to make the source generally compile-able across distributions. It's easier to compile a flatpak on the system it was developed on because all of the testing was done on one particular distribution. However, different distributions may have differences like the files in different locations, different software or libraries installed, different versions, different compilers, and without the program being compiled from source with all these differences, the codebase may never be updated to be take into account the differences in systems. The source code can be very stale, in a sense.

* Not a long-term solution. Flatpaks generally age out over time because they can't keep pace with distribution changes over time, as the open source environment is still very dynamic. Only source code that is legal to share is really sustainable over the long-term.

* Reduce use testing and reporting of bugs. Reported bugs usually get ironed out over time, as most program and package maintainers take pride in their work. With flatpaks, users don't get to test the program against updates to support libraries, so there are less user reports of bugs, and it can mean that bugs don't get identified as quickly or ever.

* Harder to identify bugs. Because flatpaks are monilithic binaries comprising both original and external work, it can be hard to figure out if a given bug is in the original program or supporting library, leading to mis-reporting of bugs, which adds effort to figure out the real source of the bug.

Stop pulling the ladder up behind you. Don’t lock the door once you are in. Don’t advocate for Anti-Immigration when you are fresh off the boat yourself. 😂
