Is there an Arch fork that is not implementing this shit or do I have to go non systemd now? Because this BS is not going on any of my machines.

Fuck AI.

Personally, I think this first response nails it.

Linux is not sold. So you either need to force users to install this on their systems, or go eat rocks.

Enterprise distros on the other hand… Need to do this.

Oh sorry, just realized we are talking app servers.

Yeah, Google apps, and linux hosted apps. Havent had a company that ran windows or MS anything in 14 years.

Mac, actually. Its a different kind of bad. At least I can use many of the same cli tools.

I don’t encode in AV1, I use HEVC. But while your argument is not unreasonable, it misses the component of file size and amount of disk space required.

HEVC (x265) takes half the space of x264. While it does require a more modern GPU, it can be run on lower powered Intel CPUs with an integrated GPU just fine, so long as the CPU is new enough. Though it can only handle 2-3 streams on a CPU like the Intel chips in a ZimaBoard. So you need to choose wisely.

All dependent on the hardware you run the server on. Give it a good GPU and you’re off to the races

Musk pretends he’s something he’s not on Shitter all the time.

Use DKMS drivers. They rebuild for the latest kernel as its upgraded. Using precompiled libs is a problem as many vendors dont keep up with the kernel.

Also, consider an OS that isn’t just a Ubuntu variant. Broken kernel upgrades are a thing of the past since our house dumped Ubuntu based distros.

The deb version is a pointer to the snap in their repos. Nothings being replaced, it no longer exists. The deb version of Firefox in Ubuntu repos is a wrapper that installs snap and has no binaries in it. Has been for 3 years or so.

You don’t need special docks in KDE, its all configurable through the default desktop settings. You have enough knobs to make it look like anything.

Hey no worries, I dunno why I even called that out. Lack of sleep due to back pain and responding to posts at 2am I guess

That’s some shitty ‘hacking’…

But what makes these shell commands ‘bash’ exactly? Seems like this could be a half-dozen shells.

Also… why are ‘hackers’ always using a shell in some gui program?

named a TV show after it

The Springfields?

As much as I love Vulcan, AB… based on the qualifiers for this post, it is disqualified by Dildo, Newfoundland.

Dildo, Newfoundland, Canada: 803 people as of 2021.

Someone here mentioned Vulcan, Alberta - however given the qualifiers of country and size, its 1769 people disqualifies it.

Also, though I am a Trekkie myself and know that Vulcan is well known in those circles, it’s virtually unheard of outside them.

Meanwhile, Dildo:

Doughnut of power!!!

They also renamed a bunch of locations from Safeway > FreshMart and laid off career employees with years of raises and benefits and forced them to reapply under the new franchise name. Same owners, same stores, but LOOPHOLE.

Fucking assholes.

Speaking personally, while I am here, my participation in Lemmy is lacklustre at best; same with Mastodon. I got burnt out from social media and the years from 2016 - 2024 have really ruined my enthusiasm. I think maybe a lot are in the same boat. Maybe we’ll see more people come out of the “shields up, dark times overload” in a year or so… and maybe it will take longer.
