I ain’t got the time to wait for Gentoo to finish compiling. I’m old and don’t have that many years left to live. And LFS, well madness lies on that path. I have seen it and barely escaped.

Debian is kind of cool again in a hipster sort of way if you aren’t running a bunch of servers. I do wonder why Slack has faded so. It was the Arch of it’s day.

You must not pay much attention to what is placed on your burger then. Burger King or McDonald’s is all the same stack of crap on a bun. They both smother the patty with all the stuff I listed to hide the low quality. No matter if it’s a beef whopper or the impossible whopper. If you don’t believe me, buy one of each and take them apart to compare.

It took me longer than I care to admit that I no longer needed a full office suite. And for me, Abiword and Gnumeric meet my light and simple needs.

I still have feelings for LibreOffice though.😰

The buns, the catsup, mustard, “special sauce”, the onions, the pickles, the cheese, lettuce, and don’t forget the sesame seeds! You could put a piece of cardboard in that McDonald’s hamburger and not be able to tell the difference…

Hey, I like adobe sauce. No wait, isn’t that adobo sauce? I get so confused in my old age…

LibreOffice is the good stuff if you need an office suite. It can do everything you might actually need and the price is right. But I’m old and retired and no longer have a need for a full office suite. I find AbiWord and Gnumeric all I need anymore. It kind of makes me sad to do so, but I uninstall LibreOffice these days.

If they really wanted to go hard, they’d be running Gentoo or LFS. Possibly Debian or Slack if they were truly hardcore.

Not anymore.

If you need to hide the taste with all that crap, can it really taste good?

Yeah, I’ve tried Tumbleweed several times and liked it, but the package management and a couple of other things about it just didn’t vibe with me. I do like the name of Tumbleweed. Tumbleweeds never stay still as long as the wind blows. The wanderlust is real.

Yeah, my quip is meant in the same vein. Every person is entitled to their own choice in the road to Hell they want to take.

In a more serious personal opinion, you can get nearly the same undercooked packages from SUSE Tumbleweed, with just with a bit more seasoning and testing. And if freshness matters with even better seasoning and testing Fedora can fill that role. And both take less effort and have less risk.

I stopped giggling and laughing about the flaming wreckage of my installs a decade ago because I’m just too old and lazy to fix things anymore.

That’s a straight up case of dumping enough crap on top of each patty that you can’t tell what the hell you are eating anyway.

Try cooking each patty with nothing more than a bit of salt and eat them plain with nothing else, not even a bun, and then tell me you can’t taste the difference.

At this point, a dead Mitch McConnell is more effective at governing than Trump.

I struggle to see the hype of Arch.

What junk can you possibly fill multiple TB drives with? I have a mini desktop with a TB drive and it’s only got about 7.5 GB on it. And I think that’s a lot. My pathetic little home server is a measly 500GB and has just 37GB on it. I even have another computer that I use with 125GB drive. Barely 1/3 filled.

Me. Not worth my effort. I’ve reached a point where I just can’t be bothered to be 1337 anymore.

Everything that matters is backed up to 3 different places, my pathetic little repurposed laptop home server and 2 cloud services. And one of those is literally on the other side of the planet from me.

I sleep well. As much as the doctor prescribed medications and cpap machine allow for anyway.

I haven’t paid attention to Omarchy to be honest. So I went to their website to see and was trying to watch the video on their distro. When he opened a terminal and intermediately opened a tiled browser window with X loaded, I just noped right out of there.

You are correct about the unable to read, and it’s a good thing they can’t.

These days only Kajeet has warez. It’s mostly virus ridden pr0n, but it’s warez for the 1337 haxorz out there.

Life itself is not worth living without garlic.

Ah yes. Dueling for the rich. The He who has the most money and best lawyers approach.
