Why not? It seems to be working fine.

Too many people involved I think, someone will have to check this but all those members with names attached look like real developers who were significantly contributing to the project. It is perfectly possible for a dictator for life to have festered a toxic culture that got worse over time, and has happened multiple times before.

All cachyos does differently is have repos with the best optermisations applied. In practice its just a faster version of arch with an optional archinstall GUI.

Technically yes by rewriting ipfs’s code, but due to ipfs’s flaws you would be better off using something like freenet/hyphanet which has been designed for that purpose and has been successfully running since 2000, with the added benefit that the data is actually stored in the network by others instead of just by you (at least when you often request the data)

Unfortunately the reality of IPFS is that despite its huge funding it was poorly designed from the start and still to this day has much slower loading times then my I2pd instance (despite i2p transmiting messages through multiple encrypted proxies), to the point where the company working on the rust implementation determined it was so bad they had to scrap the whole thing to make something that actually worked. Not to mention that I managed to have my server taken over by some kind of malware by downloading a particular piece of content.

If you ever find a social media platform that doesn’t have stuff like this, please tell me. The larger a site gets the more representative of the human nature it gets, which leads to both really heartwarming stuff and things like this.

Yes Stable Linux variants (also known as distros) are very widely used, and range from Linux mint which is completely stable with no issues for day to day use (assuming you don’t use an Nvidia card) to Debian which which has a selling point of not changing anything beyond security updates for like 6 years straight

Most people here will be talking about there bleeding edge systems which will use code that is often in beta or use systems so new they don’t have proper documentation (the bcachefs file system which showed up last month comes to mind).

Agreed, and I’ve seen cases where its helped people a lot, I’m just not one of those.

idk I feel its pretty useful in finding others like you?

True but to me my gender is really not a factor in who I am, and while it might be a useful huistic for finding those who are similar to me, I can think of far better ones then that (e.g. hobbies, position on the asexuality spectrum)

Your statement about politicians is something I agree with, I’m more thinking about how identifying as an outlier is less useful then identifying as your birth gender when doing statistical analysis for polls with low sample size which I often participate in, especially when it makes no difference to me.

by being publicly open about it, you help others feel confident …

That’s a good point that I’ll think on

but again, you do you boo and I’m gonna keep being me by confusing all the guys in the gym lockers 🤪

You too, I wish you luck with that.

Personally I don’t engage with gender. Gender is only useful in changing peoples perceptions of yourself and I don’t find people “lying” about my identity to my face to be an issue. I would identify as non binary or agender, but to do that would induce cognitive burden on others and make survay data more difficult, so I just don’t. Life is too short to bother educating people you meet about how you understand your own gender.

Who am I, I’m fractal and my pronouns are whatever you are willing to calling me in this moment.

Jerboa doesn’t seem to crash, though you will need to restart if you lose WiFi and then proceed to reload c/all

Let’s see: Unintentionally making a proxy accessible to anyone online

Accidentally deallocating an ext4 partition and then having to run testdisk on it

Trying to manually create a grub entry and corrupting the bootloader

Installing a arch derivertive and having it silently overwrite grub

Installing puppy Linux and then trying to get it to use apt

Incorrect use of ppa’s on mint resulting in very old packages being installed

And many others besides

the idea sat better when I couldn’t think it through

That’s what made your comment entertaining to think about

How would you suggest doing that and what purpose would it serve?

Because Gui’s don’t show advanced options and so I know/understand exactly what is being done. (e.g. I would always use apt over mint’s package store so I could see what it did, how much time I had left, download multiple applications at once and see if the package made a random config file somewhere)

I got this incredibly busted hand-me-down that was having issues running windows, so I installed Linux mint on it and then distro hopped until I started daily driving arch on a new machine.
