That is a bunch of unnecessary noise just because an AI managed to code a working python code for you. Like that’d make your command “cursed” or some sort.

You will go back to your “usual” linux setup when you realize that most packages you set up with LFS are now broken and you’ll need to redo the whole process again.

t. arch linux minimal installation only master race

I don’t mind a little “change” every now and then, but still – “Sway” on my “potatoes” (Orange pi zero 3 and Orange pi 5 max) and “Hyprland” on my x86_64 PC.

How to become a hacker

Average Linux user: Hack the white house

Your mom: Install pi-hole

Dietpi user here. I’ve got a orange pi zero 3 w/ 1GiB of ram serving me nextdns under docker + playing a live stream 24/7 (via yt-dlp/ffplay) and it does its job just nicely.

Nice cherry picking/moving the goalpost, but that is not how refuting works. A PC at NASA has a much higher “threat level” than my Orange pi zero 3, just chilling on the background. Which means, a potential “security hole” may prove harmful for these pcs… but it’ll definitely not hurt me in the slightest.

And before you parrot with other links and/or excuses… yes, I’m not negating their existence. I’m just saying they are there… but, well… “who cares”? If anything, its much faster to set up my distro back up “just like never happened before” than performing any “maintenance” whatsoever. Again, “Common sense antivirus” reigns supreme here – know what you are doing, and none of these things will matter.

All you have to do is to install “Common sense antivirus”, pretty much.

Comparing a PC maintenance to leaving the keys outside the front door is too dramatic, to not say the least…

…unless you work at NASA and/or your PC is holding something too valuable/sensitive/high-priority for others to want to hack it “that badly” – which I (highly) doubt it.

You simply don’t do any maintenance whatsoever.

t. Got a arch linux install that I (rarely) perform “sudo pacman -Syu --noconfirm” and it works like a champ.

I was about to say that you should learn the “ins and outs” of Linux first before choosing a distro until I’ve noticed these part(s) of your post.

I’ve been toying with Linux on and off for almost 20 years now.

I’m comfortable in the command line

20 years is more than enough time for a user to use Linux properly. And with that in mind, well… you are overthinking it – just go with whatever you want, really.

“The saying goes “if you’re not paying for the product, you are the product” —unless open-source, I tend to add if I hear someone say it! Alas, Mozilla’s recent faux-pas suggests that even noble projects aren’t immune to the shiny glint of ick.”

…I don’t know if we should embrace proprietary like that just because “firefox did it”.

If you have lower standards, even a $10 arm pc can be “mainstream”.

Just updated the code so all new testament books are being fetched properly. (It wasn’t the case when I posted this at first glance.)

-EDIT- Updated the code again due to some old testament books not being properly fetched – should be g2g now.

-EDIT2- Added a way to scroll between chapters. -NOW- it is g2g.

Fixed some minors annoyances and some books -stll- not being properly fetched.

Truth be told, most folks aren’t interested in having a conversation with strangers on the internet – but “use” em as a scapegoat for their personal/irl issues. With that said, the logic behind “downvote-happy” users is simply, “Have this downvote because I’m feeling like shiz and I must downvote you so I can feel a false sense of superiority/intelligence over you and feel less like shiz.”.

For the same reason you typed this post.

More like the same thing.

At 80’s however will be like “Damn, I used to talk with randoms about my age and making such a big deal in my 20’ties. And now I’m in my 80’ties and I could die in any moment.”

At 100’ties will be like “Ah, fu-”

Just you wait until you reach a point where you think “I used to feel old when I was in my 20’ties. Now I’m really old.”

t. Am 41 years old.

A very solid mod indeed. Too bad it has only one map.

Right now.

I’m running Dietpi (Which is pretty much a “tweaked” debian) on my orange pi 5 max and arch linux on my x86_64 pc. Both are bare metal installations, so the “killer feature” is, er… whatever I want, pretty much. I also have a orange pi zero 3 running dietpi serving me nextdns under docker… and another orange pi zero 3 serving as my “Theres a blackout going on in town and all I have to do is to play retropie” pc.

A trickster that wants to make a fool of everyone out of pleasures and illusions of grandeur? Definitely Ubuntu. Promises a “easy to use” distro while installing unsolicited packages and fetching unauthorized info without your consent on the background.
