Also home computer manuals and some hifi and lab equipment manuals which came with full schematics and measurement and calibration procedures. They essentially gave all users the maintenance manual and not just the dumb user one.
I wish this was more of a thing. Right to repair!
Probably a long time. Humans are fairly resilient just gotta follow the rule of 3…
3 minutes without air 3 days without water 3 weeks without food
Equals dead. (Roughly give or take depending on environmental factors.)
Ok, I missed the word and. My apologies. This is an example of any. I guess it’s not all as the screen still worked. Truck won’t move, but you don’t care about that.
I drove it ONE block after delivery, it made a loud thunk, and threw alarms, and was disabled!
You requested evidence, I was attempting to provide evidence. Copy paste of last line of the Twitter post.
Ok I tried a gentoo setup this week. 8 hours in was able to build a kernel and get a cli on my box. But I’m failing at my attempts to get xfce or KDE or even startx to work. 😅 debating if I should keep it at this weekend or go back to my arch or simple eos.
I like emerge and I like the philosophy but gotta get a bit more knowledge on this use flag thing.
Understood, thanks for the response.
Thanks for the detailed response. Yeah I’m reading up on distrobox.
Thanks, I’m investigating Gentoo. It’s rolling release and custom built. Updated frequently is good and stability is good too, IMO.
Thanks for the links. I’ll read up on it.
Awesome, thanks I appreciate the response. This makes sense.
Thanks for your response.
It still takes space on the drive. It takes an icon on the start menu.
And then there’s that little devil in me that I don’t want to send feedback back to servers of what I do with my system.
Maybe I’m paranoid or maybe I just want to squeeze all the pure power (and space) I can. It’s like an old hot rod, there’s no radio; there’s no heated seats; it’s made to go fast and have fun.
As I said, to avoid bloat, why run an os over an os? Endeavouros has its update but there’s also an arch update. I don’t need hand holding for the install and that’s one of the benefits of Endeavouros, at least that’s my understanding.
I’m already running endeavouros and thinking of going back to arch to remove the extra overlay.
Yes I understand. I like to tinker and fiddle with dials and buttons so to speak. I want to be able to make my system do whatever I tell it. Change icons, buttons, widgets, as well as being able to remove/ avoid apps that I don’t use.
That was the wiring and circuit breakers, not the software.
(Also flammable material)
Edit: yes, not software related.
