This post is about a decade late. It’s already like that or worse.
So, the real question is - what are you doing about it beside whining into the void? Don’t reply to me.
Look yourself in the mirror and confront the fact that all of this is happening all around you while you refuse to deviate from your normal daily routine.
What is the point
Some people just want to watch the world burn.
Oh noes. Some internet rando called me names because I wouldn’t provide free labor for them. You sure told me.
Thanks for continuing to put your inexperience on display. If you’re so certain you’re right, you don’t need my answer.
Thats a lot of words to say nothing of value.
Projection ain’t just for the cinemas.
You don’t see the deal breaker because your requirements are clearly low enough that open-core software works for your use case. Your experience is not universal. Your inexperience is leading you to believe you’re more knowledgeable than you really are. I don’t need to explain myself to someone that engages in bad faith arguments.
Let me guess, you chose Gitlab because you’re a DHH fanboy?
If you have to ask the question, you haven’t made a serious comparison of the two.
what’s taking people so long
besides the fact that there’s no decent alternative for workloads of a certain size/scale?
Be the change you want to see in the world.
Legality is not morality.
Which memes? I’m not familiar. But, the attempts at joking about this product and the Charleton Heston movie are soooooooooo oooooooollllllld.
I’ve been eating Soylent for several years. I started with the powdered formulation v1.4; I did an experiment where I lived on only Soylent for about 5 months straight - I had no issues, I just got bored of not chewing things. I jumped to the premixed drinks when they arrived. I currently do Soylent for 1-2 meals and regular meals the rest of the day.
Most recently, I’ve been doing subscription shuffling because the current ownership is allowing the business to wither away because not enough people are doing monthly subscriptions. Right now, if you want pre-mixed drinks, chocolate is your best and maybe only option.
Me too. It seems like they’re down to doing only Chocolate flavor in reliable quantities.
I’ve been eating Soylent for several years now.
Can I see some of this documentation?
Sure. Go look it up for yourself. It isn’t hard to find. You don’t need my consent or permission to do your own homework. Nobody’s going to do it for you.
Imagine being so naive that you believe the propaganda coming out of countries known for their well-documented disinformation policies.
Edit: Imagine being so naive to think that a statement about one thing is somehow also a statement about other things not specifically mentioned. Y’all must clearly also have trouble with statements like “Black Lives Matter” don’t you?
Just a simple binary 0 or 1 to indicate whether the person means what they said literally or figuratively.
I don’t really care to invade people’s privacy, even for altruistic-seeming reasons. I just need a hint about how to interpret a person every so often.
Why is it good that you exist and why should we care?
It isn’t and you shouldn’t.
I didn’t choose to exist. I’m just making the best of the decision that was made for me. Just like everyone else.
I think that the goal most humans should have for themselves is to leave the world better off in some way than you found it. If you can manage to do that, your existence is worthwhile. Everyone else ought to get fed feet-first into the nearest woodchipper.
I’ve been running Fedora steadily since Fedora Core. I’ve used just about every version of Red Hat’s distro since RHL5. I’ve used a whole lot of other distros, too.
Fedora is the upstream of CentOS and RHEL. Anything targeting RHEL will first show up in Fedora. Fedora has a long history of pioneering new technologies. The release cadence is twice a year, versions are supported for 1 year from release (2 subsequent release cycles).
Your programs and data will move just fine between different Linux distributions. You’ve got nothing to worry about there.
Display issues are generally a WM/Compositor/Driver problem. If the bugs aren’t in the drivers or in Wayland itself, then you might see differences in e.g. Gnome-Shell versus KDE. This isn’t likely to be a distro-specific issue, though. It is possible that some of the distro-level patch work may have fixed the bug.
Keyboard shortcuts are fully configurable. Not a distro-specific thing, but each distro does it a little differently depending on which software they’re using. You can make any key combination do anything you want. But persisting changes may not always happen depending on how you’re setting it.
Most of what you’re talking about just requires a little deeper know-how than you’ve currently got. One detail that you’ll need to understand before anything else - The differences between Xubuntu and Fedora are a whole lot smaller than the differences between Mac and Windows or either of those and Linux. Yes, each distro is opinionated about how it’s out-of-the-box configs are set. But, they’re running more of the same software than not. So, now it’s just time for you to learn how the sausage is made. Hit the man pages and start learning how to solve some of these problems. :)
Thank you for the thoughtful response.
For me, I think it boils down to one simple question that each of us confronts on a daily basis - in the face of injustice, what are you willing to do to combat it? Will you show up to city council meetings instead of going to bar trivia, for example? Will you put your own time and energy into putting yourself and your livelihood and your personal freedom at risk because your fellow Americans are being deported simply because their skin might be a little darker than yours?
How bad will it need to get before you’re willing to change your life and your habits because your leadership has decided to steal from the public it is supposed to be serving?
Americans in the Los Angeles area knew what action to take in the face of injustice in May of 1992. Americans in 2026 seem to have lost the will to remind their corporate-sponsored overlords that they only govern through and by the consent of the governed.
