Yeah ive seen it.

I just can't comprehend how these people can do, and say the things they do. How does the cognitive dissonance not make them stop and think about what they are doing?

Wanting to be a part of open source commumities and projects. Then somehow thinking its a good idea to exclude certain people from open source comunities because they aren't progressive enough.

Saying they hate racism and that racists are evil, trying to cancel and exclude them. Yet they are openly racist against white people. Then they cope by suddenly using a new definition for racism that lets them not look at their own hypocrisy. If you don't want to call hating white people because of their race racism. Fine, but that still doesn't mean its not biggoted, and hateful.

I personally don't care if theyre racist against white people. What I do care about is the hypocrisy, and the double standards. The whole rules for thee and not for me, mentality they all have. And I care that the normal people of the world let these people weasle themselves into positions of power.
They don't want to be part of any community, they don't give the slightest shit about free software. They're insane narcissists who would set the entire world on fire if they can't control it. The slightest hint of discomfort fills them with genocidal rage; they're not capable of genocide, so they do what they're capable of, which is fucking up everything they touch out of spite.

Remember, every troon is an autistic narcissist.

they all need to get a virus that turns on their webcam and streams it to their monitor unfiltered.
 
I've been trying multiple distros. so far my favorite has been EndeavourOS. (yes I did install Arch for the fuck of it please just let me have my Arch without the installation process). I find it to fit my needs as someone who wants no hassle when building a system. I've been looking forward to switching. I want to be challenged.
Sure I'll probably not be able to fully get out of Windows for a long while, but at least I can contain it.

Endeavor was nice. I had it, and it worked well. I ended up swapping it for some other distros. I'm using arch on one laptop and garuda on the other now. Mostly because on the arch one ai wanted to use a window manager that I set up with only stuff I want until, its perfect for what I want to do.

Garuda is basically the same to me as endevour. It just has more choices in the beginning out of the box.

To me even manjaro was nice. Some people have complaints about, in my opinion minor things with it. But my actual experience with it was, that it worked really well.

Everyone should go through the manual Arch install process at least once so they can get a better understanding of how their computer works. But sometimes, I just want to get an OS up and running ASAP, and distros like Endeavour are perfect for that.

I just wished that archfi made it easier to determine what virtual GPU driver you need to install when installing in a VM
 
I've done the manual Artix install with the base ISOs, it's pretty short and to the point if you stick strictly to the guide.

Speaking of, anyone here use CRUX? I read Arch was once just a refactor of CRUX before it became its own thing.
 
If you're using vbox on Linux because you can't figure out QEMU even though it has virt-manager which is a Fisher-Price™ frontend to it then you're a gayassnigga.
they problably don't know the difference between a type 1 and a type 2 hypervisor and just remember VirtualBox from when they played around with it on Windows 7

Only tactically. Because it avoids answering the very polite way:
systemd-tmpfiles also handles autocreating data directories such as /home, and the --purge flag is meant to wipe them clean. I am unsure what's the utility of that, but I assume there is a good reason.

This is very cool and good, there should be an option in any init system that can clear your home folder out on a misunderstanding. It's also completely normal and not absolutely bizarre at all, too. Remember folks, other init systems are hard, you actually have to know some things to delete half your homefolder with them!

also, find <path to folder> -type f (if you are so inclined) -atime <whatever timespan you want> -delete

To be fair, this only works with sane filesystems and you do need to have an high IQ to appreciate find. Or at least have a basic understanding of what files on your computers do and why they are there.

I also read on the internet that computers are good at doing things automatically, so you could probably have the computer do this automatically in certain time intervals, you know, chronologically? Can't think of a software that can do this right now. I'm sure systemd can do it and that particular function of it won't ever have had critical bugs or security issues at all. I mean, most likely. Maybe.

EDIT: fixed some grammar with systemd-grammard

It sounds like you're looking for systemd-randomd. That's the systemd unit for predictably doing things on a chronological schedule.

That's why the systemd monolith is retarded. I don't hate systemd like others. It's quite easy to use for e.g services and whatnot, but the more it handles the more there's a chance of it fucking something up, or handles it poorly.

You know the adage the internet only works because of some random dude in his basement working on an open source utility. If that random dude gets stretched out too thin, everything he does will suck, which is why separation of concerns is a cool thing. It's slower to pipe stuff through multiple programs, but if the maintainer of a program dies you don't have to replace the entire system once some dumbfuck decides to change how things work and breaks everything because the previous authoritarian tyrant maintainer is no longer there to instill his views through nerd rage and keyboard mashing.

Poettering might be retarded, but imagine if an even bigger retard got control of systemd.

Now, even if he doesn't die, there's still the problem of spreading too thin and ending up making retarded choices, like in this case. Why make a separate system for doing whatever the fuck systemd does with the home directory when they already had their temp file creating software?

I'm sure there might be some non-retarded reason for why it can purge your home, but this really looks like those moments when you already have a bash script that kinda does what you want, so you modify it slightly to have another purpose, but you forget to change it back so months later you try to use it and have no clue why it keeps popping up meatspin on max volume, or in this case, deletes your home directory

This nerd rage has been generated with systemd-gptd

It hasn't yet expanded to read mail, so poettering can pat himself on the back and console himself that systemd is still "small" because it hasn't yet fulfilled that particular unix adage.

It looks to me like systemd-tmpfiles, at some point, took over management of every volatile file in the system and they never renamed it.

When you say temporary file absolutely zero people would think "oh yeah that includes all my user data and config files" but hey guess what...
