The letter is not about that… in fact they are cool with ppl theaming their systems. The problem is when downstream packaging decides to include themes by default while keeping the original names…

…Have you read the thing?

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.

Why recommend Telegram when, arguably, it’s no better than WhatsApp?

Tbh :) has a different vibe than 🙂.

This. (I actually use the orange ones but the same applies).

The orange ones are basically the same but better. I use theese on a daily basis because they are military grade:

• Cheap af.
• Found everywhere.
• Would survive a nuclear holocaust.
• It’s going to last longer than I.

Full metall you say? Damnn.

I didn’t know about this brand and now I have been pushed into extensive research of their whole lineup of mechanical pens.

The 800 looks amazing but I’ve heard some people complaining about the nib being a bit wobbly, is that true in your experience?

That’s vietnam level shit going on there lmao.

Despite not having tried any of them I guess I’ll pick #1 since it’s the most robust looking one.

Currently I use one from Bic which works well enough.

Mine’s are pointing 90° on the wrong direction.

They are dormant but I’ve warned that if they decide to start being funny I’ll be fucked. :D

Typst >>>>>.

But still, Word sucks ass.

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

Probably the only thing I do.
