As long as it doesn’t hold you back in your real work you can just keep tweaking because it is fun. Just see it as a hobby where you learn things and potentially improve your workflow for other tasks.

Hopefully other software doesn’t follow this path, otherwise it will be practically impossible to run a distro without systemd.

My nvidia drivers used to break sometimes but I just switched to dkms drivers and I have had a stable experience for years. Only downside is the upgrade takes a bit longer.

I have replaced it and it just clipped in and out of a round little thing it sits in. I happened to have the right battery on hand.

I’ll make sure to replace the CMOS and use disk encryption next time. My sensitive data is encrypted separately so I’ll be fine for now. I thought that with a bios password someone couldn’t just boot from a USB on my system but clearly it only delays such actions by a minute or two.

You’re totally right, it only makes sense. Maybe my brain needs its battery replaced as well.

Thank you, that makes sense. I guess it was almost dead and now it is really dead. I don’t understand how that makes Linux freak out over the login password though.

There seem to be way more people that keep saying that they hate Arch users who keep saying that they use Arch than Arch users that keep saying that they use Arch.

Starting to feel like a boomer with st/dmenu on xorg.

Ok, good point. It also matters if AI is true intelligence or not. What I meant was the comment I replied to said

This means absolutely nothing.

Like if it is not true AI nothing it does matters? The effects of the tool, even if not true AI, matters a lot.

People often dismiss AI capabilities because “it’s not really smart”. Does that really matter? If it automates everything in the future and most people lose their jobs (just an example), who cares if it is “smart” or not? If it steals art and GPL code and turns a profit on it, who cares if it is not actually intelligent? It’s about the impact AI has on the world, not semantics on what can be considered intelligence.

less or bat, but I usually use by paging up and down so it’s not that different from more… My terminal emulator only pages up and down, I like it that way.

I understand the problem of “code it yourself”. But if they won’t code it themselves, and it ought to exist, who has to? Everything that is provided is provided for free and with love and passion. If something is lacking in that there are only a few options. Including code it yourself or pay someone to code it for you. The only reason you get anything at all is because of the “code it yourself” attitude of the people who developed the software in the first place, as well as their willingness to share it.

Yes, indeed. Even agreed! Joking i was, poking some fun. All in jest, even the emoji couldn’t put the overly serious answers to rest!

Debian users analyzing graphs in order to estimate when they can upgrade from really old software to slightly less old software 🤣

I like fucking around and finding out. I also don’t like roll backs, real men only roll forwards :)

(don’t take that too seriously please)

Artix because it is more Arch then Arch according to Arch’s own goals: “focuses on simplicity, minimalism, and code elegance”. There is no way systemd is more simple, minimal and elegant than its alternatives. I don’t think systemd is bad, but I do think it is a bad fit and Artix is what Arch should have been.

Unless you have a particular reason for sticking to POSIX, who cares? I’ll take the user experience improvement without worry.
