Pretty useful for not getting locked out. It can be finetuned if you want to assign priorities and that.

It is usually handled by systemd-oomd.

And do not forget about impermanence everywhere.

I would argue that’s the cool part. You also have the average hyper racist neo-reactionary Suckless fossid user who thinks daring to write in anything other than C is “gay” or smth.

And also it let’s you do crazy things that would be impossible in other imperative distros tho.

I am thinking about root-on-tmpfs, conditional configuration and doing all sorts of crazy things with packages while remaining manageable.

It is simply another whole tier.

Flatpak and SystemD Portable services are actually pretty good.

That’s the direction I see Linux going. I personally use NixOS because I am sad.

Last time I read something from the main dev I almost ran stright into the woods.

Also idk about how it is the management situation, portals integration, etc…

Insisting in the GNU/Linux thing gets cringier as time passes and GNU continues to fall into irrelevance.

It has always been a terrible take, but bro, I don’t see GNU being used in mainstream distros by the end of the next decade.

I could also name like a shit ton of programs way more relevant than the coreutils.

Uhhh, there are no alternatives to SystemD right now.

While different inits exists and they work just as well as SystemD, there is no replacement for the whole suite of programs.

See PostmarketOS, they ended up adding SystemD because it ends up being either thar or reinventing the wheel.

Imho SystemD gets a lot of hate for no reason at all. (Not saying it is perfect at all).

Literally tons of distros could be some lib.mkDefault nixos configs. And they would get a package manager improvement.

We already have NixOS, why anything else?

(Guix is cool too).

When the pluggings system drops it’s going to be wild.

I hace a Xenia sticker on a machine that enthusiastically runs SysD.

There’s a dedicated 10th circle in hell for this people. As someone who runs a root-on-tmpfs system, PLEASE document which dirs your application is using.

It is a total pain, specially with non standar ones.

But tbf there are a lot of Linux devs who neither have read a single line of any Linux standard API.

XDG_DIR, Portals, Secrets, D-Bus, the Desktop file spec, Appstream… are there for you to read. 🥰

This is nixos.

Having a good --help command does wonders.

There are man pages which do avoid me opening a web browser, the systemd ones are pretty good for example.

I just installed tldr to test it out tho.

In my case while I had fun it became something unpleasant at times.

Maybe but I would consider the best comercial ever made for skins.

Good to know flaming is going down.

Fair take, I agree.

How can the game be so bad yet the things surrounding it so good?
